Toddler Tools - Sharing Time #Giveaway

I have blogged before about how much I love Free Spirit Publishing.
I think that they are a great company and I love what they stand for...
I also really like their Toddler Tools books and luckily I was able to review a few more.
Today, I want to tell you about the book, Sharing Time by Elizabeth Verdick.

We really needed this book, but so far, Broxton is just not getting it!
As a Stay At Home Mom, he isn't in childcare or anything at this time.
He has been really good as far as sharing when it comes to the couple times he was in childcare settings...
Also, when we go to the pool, he has been really good at sharing then...
BUT lately...
Not so much.

With the boys here, he does NOT want them messing with his toys.
He will quickly have a meltdown or temper tantrum if they are messing with his toys or anything.
I have not realized what causes it...
Is it that he is HORRIBLE at sharing?
Or, is it because he gets annoyed that they are purposely messing with him?
I can not figure it out, but I was happy that I was able to have the big brothers here to read this to him.
This book tells you that sharing is not only the right thing to do...
It is also the thing to do to allow double the fun!
I love how this tells you that there are several options to sharing...

It even says that if you can not work it out, to get a grown up to help you.
I love how the grown up is so sweet and gives different options for the kids!!!
The other great thing about the books?
(I love this...)
The book doesn't just have one race represented.
All of the characters are of different ethnicity!

I wanted to get this for Broxton so that when he does start school/childcare/mothers morning out...
I want him to know that "sharing is caring!"

    As a counselor I would absolutely love to read and own all of the behavior emotional series! If I had to choose only one it would be "I'm Not Happy". Children experience so many emotions that are hard for them to understand!

PowerMat - Review and Giveaway

Image
Please let me go ahead and just say... I think/KNOW that the PowerMat will be one of the HOTTEST items this year! Have you heard of this? I mean, seriously! This is Awesome and I am using that since I can not think of any other way to explain it... (Are there really words that would explain something this cool?!) Okay, let me just cut to the heart of it... The PowerMat is just that... A MAT full of POWER! It is a little bit longer than an average book... Thinner than a cell phone. It looks like a skateboard (in my opinion.) and it charges 3 different technological gadgets at once! Do you know what that means? You NO LONGER need 3 cords, no more messy tangles... Just one cord to plug the mat in and you are done!!!! I was sent the PowerMat for review and I am so very impressed! The PowerMat can charge 3 different items... Marc and I have blackberries... (They can now BOTH charge on here AT THE SAME TIME!) We also have several IPods ... The docking station for the IPod can charge my...

Fire Fly Toothbrushes - #giveaway

Image
Is it a hassle to get your younger kids to brush their teeth? Broxton loves it and asks throughout the day if he can go and brush his... Now that he has a new toothbrush!!! We were sent a couple toothbrushes from Fire Fly Toothbrushes and I just love the concept! With Fire Fly, they light up! You just press the button and they light up for a solid minute. What we do here is a little system. First, Broxton brushes his teeth for the first minute. (just a teeny bit of toothpaste) Then, I brush the next minute (once again, minimal toothpaste.) Finally, he gets to brush them a final minute (no toothpaste.) The system is working and his teeth are clean! During the day, when he wants to brush them.. He can, but with no toothpaste. He really just likes the way it lights up. Doesn't hurt that the toothbrush is a hot wheels car!!! He also has one to leave at my parents house.. It is a snoopy one and lights up blue! Talk about a cool item to show the grandparents!!! Not only c...

Hurry Up! Review & Giveaway

Image
The Holidays are getting closer and closer! Some may want the days leading up to them to "Hurry Up!" So, with that in mind... I want to kick things off with a pretty cool giveaway!!!!!!! Hurry Up! The Dice Game is kicking things off for us... Check back daily to see what is in store!! Hurry Up! The Dice Game, by Random Line is a hit around here already! True enough, Marc and I did not follow the directions, exactly as we were supposed to, but that was because I did not read them all the way! In our defense, we just wanted to see how much fun it would be to prepare for when the boys are here again! (Note, it will be a big hit! I can see it already!!) This game is super fun and as the name says... Hurry Up!!!! You have 6 die and 6 challenges... One dice is blue... and that adds for lots of fun!!!
