NCircle Entertainment Presents Octonauts & ABC Monsters + Giveaway {2 Winners!} 9/25

One way that our family likes to wind down and spend time together is during a Family Movie Night.  While it doesn't happen all that often, we try to manage this about once a month.  Some times we choose "kids" movies and other times we pick a classic like "Seven Brides For Seven Brothers".  As long as it's family friendly, we're all pretty easy to please.  So with NCircle Entertainment's new August releases out, I was happy to add a couple more great options to our line up.

1UP Box Subscription Box Review ~ August 2016

By Emily Benzing

September 8th, 2016
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.

Peaceable Kingdom ~ Friends & Neighbors Game {Post 1} + Giveaway 9/24

#GetCurious & Celebrate Curious George’s 75th Birthday {+ Giveaway!) US 9/21

Growing up, I look back at my elementary education days fondly.  There were days where we'd head down to the computer lab and hit the trails on the beloved Oregon Trails computer game or crunch math facts with Number Munchers.  Then, there were other days were we'd spend some time in the library.  I quickly learned where some of my favorites were located and I'd always run see if there was a new release waiting.  One of those beloved book themes just happened to be Curious George!  Partly fueled Read more [...]

pediped ~ Back To School & Fall Styles Now Available! + Giveaway (US & Canada) 9/21

I'm a bit sad to say that it's almost time to pack up the flip flops and summer clothes.  Here in Minnesota, the month of September tends to bring in cooler temps for the better part of most days.  The last few days have even had a cooler north wind blowing in.  So as we start making these preparations, I turned to pediped for a new pair of shoes for our 6 year old son. Sending a big thank you to pediped for sending us these gorgeous shoes! Just in case you're unfamiliar, pediped is an award Read more [...]
