Reading is so much fun for me... and actually it is a great time for Broxton and I to enjoy time together.  He grabs the books he wants me to read and I get to enjoy that time snuggled up reading and discussing things that are exciting to him.  

A couple books that recently arrived were great additions to our library, thanks to Disney Books!!


Up first was a classic for me.  Well, I am not sure if it was from MY childhood or MY BROTHERS- but I for sure remember Huey, Dewey and Louie ...  Donald Ducks nephews!   I did not know they were still around, so I was excited to read this one to Broxton.  It was Huey, Dewey and Louie's Rainy Day and it is part of the "World Of Reading"  - Level 2.
Broxton was not familiar with them at all, so it was cute to tell him they were related to Donald and then to see what all they did on their Rainy Day spent at Uncle Donalds house!  
The other 2 books were perfect for Broxton.  Captain America - The Winter Soldier and The Amazing Spider-Man 2.    Captain America - The Winter Soldier - Rescue at Sea  is the book that tells the story of the movie Captain America- Winter Soldier, later this year.  The Amazing Spider-Man 2 - Spider-Man vs. Electro is also a movie that will be released soon - as in this week,if I am correct!!!
If your kids are anything like this little boy in our house - you might have heard " I want to see that movie!"  Just a few times already .... good thing for us is that now I can tell him that he can read the book until we see the movie!!!  

The final "awesome" part about the Captain America / Spider Man books?
They each come with a POSTER of the super hero featured in each book!
I told Broxton that if he wanted to hang the posters up in his room, I was totally okay with that... as I want it to be HIS ROOM and the way he wants it (within reason!)  I can't remember if I had posters up in my room growing up or not, but I know I sure loved looking at them at the store!  

Do you allow posters to be hung in your kids room?

    it's awesome that he enjoys reading! I remember watching the donald duck nephews cartoons in the 90's they were funny. Kind of neat the books come with posters, I used to buy magazines specifically for the posters as a teenager in middle school even though my mom got tired of it. We finally painted my walls and I was no longer allowed to hang posters lol

    Books are blessings!
    Such a great time for learning and wallowing in new worlds :)

    My kids , though past this stage, would still enjoy these books! And even more so the POSTER :)

    Yes we hang them, if they like them :)

    That's right, we are influenced by the others in our house when we read. My daughter has a soft spot for TMNT because her brothers liked them. ;)

    These look great, and I knew you loved reading with your little one. :) We love reading together over here too. The oldest had me reading to him all the way up to age 12!

    I do allow posters in their rooms. Only if they use tape I've tested.

    My boys have TMNT and Lego posters in their rooms.

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... ...
