If you are looking for a great book to have around for bedtime (really any time, but I was thinking bed time for the title)  you really need to check out 5 Minute Minnie Tales,  This book is a hard covered (padded) book that includes several great short stories featuring our lovable Minnie Mouse!  I say it is a great bedtime book, because in our house "1 story" before bed turns into "JUST ONE MORE" and this would be a great way to help.  Let them pick 2 stories and that is 10 minutes of reading!  Great to get a couple stories in, but know that it won't last all night long.  

I love that although this is "MINNIE" tales, it really covers all of the gang, so it is a great book for all Disney fans!  Yes, Minnie is the main character, but she shares each story with the rest of her friends that we all love.  In reading all of these, I think my favorite one was Minnie's Hiccup Trick!  Let me know which is your favorite! 


The Chapters include:
Minnie's Scavenger Hunt
Minnie's Summer Day
The Missing Daffodils
Minnie and the Pet Show
Minnie's Hiccup Trick
A Surprise for Pluto
Scaredy-Cat Sleepover
A Nice Day for a Sail
The Bravest Dog
Minnie and the Dude Ranch
A Perfect Picnic
Minnie's Missing Recipe

With reading time (aka bonding) seeming to be a thing of the past in most families, this is a great way to get a little one on one time before bed and allow for a bedtime tradition of snuggles and reading!  If we all encourage reading when they are younger, it will (hopefully) help them love it when they are older!

    That is nice that you can count on the time being 5 minutes. I always laughed when the kids would pick the longest books on the nights I wanted short ones. lol

    Oh, the girls would love this! My girls, like Liz's kiddos think it's hilarious to pick a long book! We actually have a similar one to this one with princesses!

    We've read together each night (even on vacation) with all four kids. The oldest now reads to his daughter too, and I just love to see it. Your book sounds cute... in fact, I bet it's one my granddaughter would love. :)

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...
