Shape Mags 60 Piece “The Starter Set” ~ Magnetic Building Toys {Review}

Construction and building sets have been popular with kids forever.  Starting as young as a few months old, our kids have loved seeing us stack their blocks and toys and then watch as they tumble down.  As they continue to grow, their fascination broadens and they begin playing with construction toys on their own.  As their skills change, they also develop a curiosity for challenges.  One way to foster and encourage their growth is to offer a variety of skill demanding toys.  However, that can Read more [...]

A huge thank you to 1UP Box for sending me this box in exchange for my honest review. All opinions are my own. Everyone has a little geek in them. Maybe you love reading so much that you lose track of time, or perhaps you love superheroes (just a little more than your kids do). Whatever you're passionate about, you love it and the way it makes you feel and that's what makes it special to you. My boyfriend and I are pretty passionate about a lot of similar things. We love watching the latest superhero Read more [...]
