Let's Go to The Museum @abramsbooks {Review}

Working on building a library for Broxton is such a fun thing for me.
I love how books will allow you to explore.  Travel.  Imagine.  Dream.
If you are sick, its raining, its cold, its to hot, its Saturday, its Tuesday ... No matter the reason, you can always go on an adventure through a book.
We had the excitement of going to THE MUSEUM a couple times lately.
Not just any museum, but through the book, The Museum from Abrams Books.

We actually had a museum in the bathtub!!!!  That is right, I read it to Broxton while he had a bath!!! What fun that was!!!!

The Museum is a great book that I loved to explore with him.
It opens with a girl going to a museum and all of the exhibits she sees.
From paintings and drawings to sculptures and more..
She even takes a moment to "think" and we see Rodin's famous work!
Broxton and I even had a minute to do "The Scream" as the girl in the museum passed by Munch's piece and she stopped to do the expression too!
As much as I love art.. and we loved looking at this book together...
I loved when she came to an empty canvas hung up.

It is at that point that Broxton and I talked about how many things can be done with a blank canvas...
We talked about how he could draw, write, paint, color... the opportunities are endless.
You just have to use your imagination!  It was so cute to hear him repeat it back to me!!!
We enjoyed reading this book, not only for the fun of the artwork...
But the rhyming in here lets me know that it is one that Broxton is going to learn to love to read aloud!

If you are a fan of the arts... Or if you are just looking for a great new book...
I highly recommend adding The Museum to your collection!!!!
(You don't even have to be "young" to enjoy this...   )

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

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!!! You only have 30 seconds to complete the challenge... and you might think that 30 seconds is a long time, but in actuality, it is NOT as long as you need it for some challenge!!!!
