We had Skylanders paraphernalia in the house well before we ever owned Trap Team. But now Activision has taken the Toys to Life concept to a whole new level by introducing 'vehicles to life' with the brand new Superchargers! Skylands is in peril! Kaos (he's the bad guy!) has unleashed his most evil weapon yet — … [Read more...]

When the warm weather hits my boys break out their collection of 'outdoor toys' which includes a stash of hot wheels cars that they play with in the sandbox and water table. September has been good to us weather wise but cooler days are just around the corner, and the fun will start to move indoors. Just because the kids will be moving the cars inside, doesn't mean the creative and interactive fun needs to come to an end. There are plenty of ways to build and create with … [Read more...]

I’m a mommy of two boys who love to play in the dirt and at the beach. My five year old son is particularly interested in all things gardening. He helps me plant flowers and vegetables. My little guy, who is turning two this month, loves to play in the sand, be it in our sand table or at the beach. I was lucky enough to be given the chance to review Green Toys Watering Can and Green Toys Dig & Discover Set. When the toys arrived at our home, my boys immediately wanted … [Read more...]
