Animal Colors and more #RaisingAReader #EasterBasket Ideas

It's been a bit since I posted.  Wow.  These temperature changes are bringing the funk over here.  I feel like I have been ran over by a bus, but I am bound to get back on track, right??  I wanted to share a couple more books with you, remember...  March is READING AWARENESS MONTH!!!
I love reading to Broxton and Savannah.  Luckily, they still enjoy me reading to them!

Savannah is one and a half, so we are all about learning books. Counting, alphabet, shapes and colors. When the latest book arrived on our doorstep, we were thrilled.  Just so you know, Animal Colors and more is far from your average color book.  Most books have "red, orange, blue" basic colors.  Well, this covers the basic colors, but if you look at the picture I have shared, you see that they show there is a difference in shades of the color.  I loved that!!!!!
I enjoyed that the book was more than just basic colors and animals.  As you see here, we also got to see the "spotted" animals and even had a bit of interaction with the reader.  "Spot the difference."
The above page had us on a hide and seek adventure as we learned about green animals and had to look for the green snake and the green grasshopper! 
 Like I said, we have really enjoyed this book and I can not wait for us to continue reading and looking at the animals while we work on our colors!  This is the third book from the author, Katie Viggers and I think we will be adding the other books to our personal library.
This would be a great book to add to an Easter basket this year!

    How fun! I love the photo you captured of her checking out the book.

    I'm trying to get things to add to their Easter baskets as well. Mica's like, "Mom maybe the Easter Bunny could add a few Lego sets." ;) I don't want to spend a lot kid! Maybe I'll add little sets. I'm giving them 2 movies I think I may have won off your site. :) Then I got glow gummy rings, and yo-yos to review just on FB. Those are going to my Aunt for the cousin hunt.

    Everyone is talking about how crazy the weather is this year. It's pretty consistent here, but we are pretty far south. I like this time of year, it's perfect for temps!

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... ...
