Melissa & Doug Terrific Twenty List and Giveaway

 
How is your holiday list coming along?  I know for our house, I think I am doing pretty good. 
I have bought for several already, but the kids are the last ones to buy for. 
With the older boys, they change their minds so much, that we will wait a bit longer to make sure what they want... Right now, they don't even KNOW what they want...  As for Broxton, he wants everything!  I want to buy him toys that will stand up to being played with on a daily basis with a very active preschooler! 
Lucky for me, Melissa and Doug have released their "Terrific Twenty for 2012" gift ideas.



What I really like is that Melissa and Doug toys have stood up to the test of times for us so far...   We have a couple toys that we got when he was younger and he still plays with them now.. and they are in good condition! 
Not to mention that out of the twenty gifts listed, 19 of them are under $40.
I love gifts in those price ranges... Talk about more for your money! 

The one item I have had my eye on for a quite some time is the Trunki. 
Broxton would love to have his own bag for when we travel to see my parents, so I think that this would not only be a great item for the need of it, but also for the fun of it all, I mean... How fun would it be to roll on your luggage to get to your destination?  (The swirl design is currently out of stock, but they should be getting more soon. )  I love the orange one and I love that you can get stickers for them too!
 Melissa and Doug not only has great products for your kids... they also want to help you give a great gift this year!  Right now, you can visit the Melissa and Doug facebook page to enter to win a gift!  They have a daily giveaway going on and you should enter now!  (From what I read, you enter once and you are entered for each day's giveaway!)
 
To help you get set for the holidays, I am holding a giveaway for one of the Melissa and Doug Scratch Art Portable Light Boxes.  I think that this would make a great gift for a boy or girl... This also looks like it would be great for working on while on a road trip.... Not to mention kids of all ages would enjoy this.. I think I know a few parents that would love one too!!!  Talk about letting those creative juices flow!!!!

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

Momma Must Have - Exergen Temporal Thermometer- Review and Giveaway

Image
As we all know, it can sometimes be a bit difficult to take the temperature of a sick child. Hey, some adults are known to be big babies... The longer they have to wait, the fussier they become. Well, with the Exergen Temporal Scanner ... Wait is something that can be eliminated! Why do I say that? Just because the wait is merely 2 seconds! During that time, you will already be finished a gift giveaway blog hop, exergen temporal scanner, mom must have, R nd moving on to something else. I really like the ease of the Exergen Thermometer. It has a soft tip on it that you gently swipe across the forehead of your "patient." There are two things that make this stand out compared to others that I have used. One - If you are sweating, you can place it behind your ear to get your temperature. Two - There is a light on both sides to show you that it is on. I like that, as I sometimes worry if it is on or not... You know how I can be! First, remove the protective cap... Turn it on...
