Iris: The Happy Professor Review

Just look what showed up in our mailbox the other day...
Iris: The Happy Professor.
I must admit, I had never heard of this before, so I was intrigued as to see what this was about.
Broxton was really taken to it and wanted to watch it again and again.  I immediately thought of a show from when I was younger, Fraggle Rock (and later learned it was "created by award winning cartoonist and animator Henri Desclez with puppeteers from the show Fraggle Rock.") 
Out of the whole DVD, the one we seemed to like the most was The Five Senses. 
I can say that it was geared to grab the attention of kid of all ages, but it has yet to grate my nerves like some kid shows out there.  I love that although it is entertaining, it is also very educational and one that we will be sure to watch again and again! 
 
There are people to meet, places to go, things to do and a whole world out there that needs exploring.  And according to Iris, there's only one way to do it - the fun way!  With their madcap adventures, Iris and his gang aim to entertain, enlighten and inspire children from five to seven, attract preschoolers and amuse the kid in all of us.  With success of the first volume, Organa has released two more volumes of Professor Iris. 
Professor Iris will delight you with his knack for teaching the science behind everyday things.  Want to know more about bees or sleep or shapes?  Professor Iris will make it fun.  His friends a piano, a plant and a skeleton help him in the classroom and Miss Principle will drop by to see what all the racket is about.  Professor Iris's oversized bowtie and a specially written song are themed to the topic of the day.  ....
Iris: The Happy Professor Volume 2  includes the episodes : Hands and Feet, The Five Senses, Why Do We Eat?, Why Do We Sleep?, and Hair.  Volume 3 includes Seasons, Fruits & Vegetable, Hot & Cold, Nature The Earth & The Sky and Minerals.

    I have never heard of it as well. I did love Fraggle Rock though! My kids even have some of their episodes on DVD.

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... ...
