I am not sure if I told you or not, but Broxton is taking Karate classes...
He loves it and although he is the "baby" of the group, he tries to handle his own...
The last time he had class, one of the "older kids"  (age 6)  made a comment about being 6 and having a phone to play on... he responded that he had a tablet....
Why am I telling you this?  Because this week, he felt that he needed to bring something "cool" in to show his classmates!
You know what he took?
Time for Kids - Dinosaurs 3D  - One of the latest books he has been reviewing!!!
He was so excited!
When the book first arrived, the two of us looked at it... 
Then, he had Marc look at it with him...

I wish I had been able to catch the expression of the kids as he showed them the book!
He brought the book to the mat and pulled out the 3D glasses...  The kids were immediately surprised by that!  Then, as they put them on, he turned the pages showing them the pictures!  They were smiling... They were "oohing" and "ahhing" it was awesome!!!

Dinosaurs 3D is a new book from Time for Kids... 
You open the book to find two pair of glasses... One for you, one for a friend!!!!
(They are the paper glasses,so you can easily put them over your every day glasses if you wear those.)
You are even greeted with a 3D dino on the contents page!
Contents Include: 
Meet the Dinosaurs
Dinosaur Times
Meat- Eaters
Long-Necked Plant - Eaters
Armored, Plated and Horned
Two - Footed Plant- Eaters
Digging Up the Past

Each page has an amazing 3D photo for you to enjoy.
(I personally loved watching Broxton try to reach out and grab them... It was too funny!)
They also include a great deal of information.
It says that this book is for ages 8+.
I know Broxton can not read yet and this might be a bit over his head... but I tell you, at 4 years old, he absolutely LOVED looking at all the pictures!  

 From their Press Release:
This book will be available for purchase on August 13, 2013.
Dinosaurs 3D is written by award-winning dinosaur author, Dougal Dixon, who reveals the latest scientific discoveries about dinosaurs in a journey through time.
This 80-page book of exciting 3D images shows dinosaurs as you've never seen them. The book is packed with state-of-the art CGI artwork for kids ages 8 and up. From plant eaters to armored dinosaurs, the creatures seem to leap, crawl, stomp, and stampede off the pages and into your living room. The 3D photos are so eye-poppingly real, you'll think you've gone back in time!


No other dinosaur book comes close to delivering the impact of Dinosaurs 3D.  Dinosaur lovers young and old will thrill to this marvelous 3D menagerie and the surprising and little-known facts and educational information about each creature and how they compare to today's animals. Dinosaurs 3D digs through the past to explore and teach families all about meat-eaters, plant-eaters, armored, plated and horned dinosaurs, dinosaur extinction, and how they lived.

As I said, we loved the book! 
If you have a fan of dinosaurs, or someone that just loves learning... 
Look into getting this!  
This would be a great back to school idea for the teacher... Or even start thinking ahead and get this for a Christmas gift!

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...
