My boys have had the Little People Farm, just about every single vehicle and even the Little People Animal Sounds Zoo since they were babies, and while they loved the toys and the little animals, it was actually the Little People themselves that they really didn't connect with. Those Little People were getting left in the dust....literally. Until one day when I gathered them all up and brought them upstairs for bath night. Somehow, just the change of scenery and bringing the Little People into a … [Read more...]

Little Passports is the educational kids gift that keeps on giving
My boys have always been fascinated with other countries around the world, maybe they just take after their mama! When I was little I had pen pals from all over the world and kept sending hand written letters to overseas friends until adulthood. When I was 18, I got the thrill of a lifetime when I traveled to Australia, a place I knew a ton about thanks to my two pen pals from that country and the following year, one of my very own pen pals from Japan came to stay with me at my house during one … [Read more...]

They still have a lot of fun in the basement "drawing" on the walls and using the included stencils to map out a solar system. The only downside is that the room isn't always dark enough to see the glowing … [Read more...]
nanoblocks micro building sets
My seven year old is a bit of a LEGO genius. He has wowed us with is his creative building talent since his first LEGO set arrived at our door a couple of years back. We couldn't get over how quickly he mastered the set on his own and loved that he could follow the instructions without help to build each set, including a very complicated X-wing starfighter. Better than that though, he was soon creating his own sets and letting his imagination run wild! So what's a boy to move on from once he's … [Read more...]
