Walking With Dinosaurs - A fun way to learn!!!

I will start this post by saying that Broxton is not as "into" dinosaurs as other kids.  He likes them and thinks they are neat,but he could not tell you all the different kinds if he had to.  That being said - the other day, he spotted Walking With Dinosaurs The Movie and decided that he really wanted to watch it. 
Now, I fell asleep after about 20 minutes or so ... I don't know if it was because I am not a dinosaur fan or what, but I did wake up a few times and he was totally in a dino-trance!  Once the movie was over, he immediately asked if I could let him watch it with his daddy...  (No, he did not get to watch it back to back!)  But - we did go to a dinosaur exhibit the next day (review to come on that one) and he had to tell EVERYONE he could that he had watched this movie and he really, really liked it.  

I have to admit, I really liked the way they did this movie... 
We get to go with Patchy and learn all about the different dinosaurs of that time period.  I liked how they introduced them all,it was educational - but in a fun story way, not boring and "teaching" if you know what I mean.  I thought it was a fun and cool way to tell about the different dinosaurs without it being boring.  I know that sounds weird since I admitted I fell asleep - but when I was awake, I thought it was pretty cool!

    I like that it's not boring teaching. I wanted to see it anyway, now I want to see it more. :) lol at you falling asleep. My husband does that at every single live show for kids that we go to (and even the movie at LegoLand). I always take a picture of him snoozing because it's hilarious to me. ;)

    I'm so glad to hear that this film is very educational, yet not boring. I definitely think this movie would keep my grandsons' interest!

    Is this making its way into Broxton's Easter basket?

    We're giving our kids Nintendo DS games. One Toys R Us in our area was closing down. We got them for a great deal!

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...
