My daughter was beyond excited to receive this 24 piece Minnie Mouse puzzle. She is just starting to enjoy puzzles more, so one with Minnie on it made it even more enjoyable for her.
As a parent I would purchase the item or give as a gift. The colors on the graphic were vibrant, the cardboard underlay sturdy. I think any child in a 4-6 year old range would enjoy it.

I was very excited when we received this item to review. We were just about to leave for vacation so I packed it to take with us. It was a hit with the entire family young and old alike. I loved the fact that there are two games packed in one box. It makes it easy to travel with and takes up less space in the game cabinet.
Snakes and Ladders is similar to the age old chutes and ladders game. It’s a fun and fresh take since chutes and ladders is everywhere. My daughter and nieces and nephews loved playing.
Forest Snack Game is also very fun. The goal of the game is to deliver snacks that you pick up along the way to your friends at the end of the trail. You try to avoid landing on the fox square or he’ll take away one of your snacks. Much shrieking and laughing ensued from this game.
Overall quality was great. The board is sturdy and the colors are bright. Highly recommend purchase!

My Daugther and I were thrilled to learn we were selected to review a Kinetic Sand Sandbox Set. Kinetic sand is the favorite toy in our house and we have multiple sets.
This set comes with 1 pound of purple Kinetic Sand, 1 sandbox tray, 1 shovel tool and three molds. The included mold shapes are a sandcastle, a turtle and a crab. I like all of the items that are in the set, they are very sturdy and well made.
The Kinetic sand releases easily from the molds and leaves a detailed shape. The sandbox tray is also sturdy and well made, a big upgrade from the cardboard boxes that come with some of the other sets I’ve purchased. The tray also gives you enough space to build. The shovel is the perfect size for little hands and can be used for scooping and chopping. There are also three small seashell molds that are built into the handle.
My daughter, five, really loved that the color of the sand is a dark purple. We do not have any colored sand, so this was a fun feature for her. She also liked that it made unique sandcastles, she can’t make a purple sandcastle at the beach.
I think that the amount of Kinetic Sand provided with the set is adequate. We were able to make one of each item and still had some sand leftover to play with. When loose you can cover the entire bottom of the sand tray with Kinetic Sand.
We were provided this item in exchange for a honest review, and honestly I would purchase this item again. I would recommend this item for a gift or just something to add to playtime at home. It also would not be hard to stick all of these items in a zip top bag and pack it for travel. If you already have Kinetic Sand at home it would make a great addition and expand play with some new items.
Thank you for reading!

We were so excited when we were chosen to review the Paw Patrol Adventure Bay Bath Playset. My five year old Daughter has been a long time Paw Patrol fan and was looking forward to having a Paw Patrol bath toy.
The Paw Patrol Adventure Bay Bath Playset contains a Paw Patrol tower, a Chase figure vehicle, a Chickaletta figure and a bath cup.
The tower itself is nice and large and has suction cups on the back of it to attach it to the side of your bath tub or shower wall. It is very detailed and sturdy, I think it will hold up to a lot of play. One of the most important things is that it is easy to clean and to dry off. Since it hangs it drips dry and I wipe it down every week when I clean my shower.
The Chase figure is in his pup police car. The figure itself does not come out of the car, but the car floats and lights up when it is in the water. My daughter was more interested in that than being able to take the figure out of the car.
The Chickaletta figure is floating in a lifesaving ring. Chickaletta is not removable from the ring, but does float around nicely. The combination of Chase and Chickaletta lead to many fun play scenarios where Chase rescues Chickaletta.
The bath cup that comes with the set is for scooping up water and filling a drop ramp on the tower. If you place Chase at the top of the tower and fill the drop ramp with water, it will launch Chase down the slide. This makes Chase rush to Chickaletta’s rescue!
Overall I give the set a 10 out of 10. It fosters creative play and thinking in a different environment. The light up pup vehicle is a new and fun feature. The durability is fantastic and I think it will bring a lot of entertainment to bath time for a long time. This would make a fantastic gift for any Paw Patrol fan.
We were given this toy for free in exchange for our opinion, but this review is a 100% accurate statement of our opinion of this item.

What a great addition to the toy box for any Paw Patrol Fan! We received this item for free from Spin Master, but this review is my own opinion.
We received a Chase Collectable Action Figure and my four year daughter loves it. She squealed upon opening the shipping box when she saw it was Chase, he is her favorite.
Our home has many Paw Patrol figures but this one is different, when you press Chase’s pup tag he says catchphrases from the show. I typically dread any toy that makes noise, but this is set at a enjoyable volume and I don’t mind it at all.
Chase also has his megaphone out from his pup pack and you can spin it around. I do wish that you talk into it or look through it though. It has a small hollow in the back of it and both my daughter and my first instinct was to look into it. It is pretty cool that it spins around though.
The one downside to this Chase is that he is in a fixed position. The only thing that moves is the megaphone on his back. My daughter didn’t really seem to mind or notice though.
If you have a Paw Patrol fan in your home I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it. When these items are released I plan on purchasing them for my nephews for Christmas.

Every Christmas many of my family members purchase Ferrero Rocher chocolate for me. It is the sole reason for any holiday weight gain I may have. The crunchy, crispy, sweet and slightly salty delight that is Ferrero Rocher is my weakness. I cannot buy this for myself because I will eat all of them. Yes, I have a problem. Yes, I know. They’re just so gooooddd! If you’ve never tried one so yourself a favor and take the plunge! -

This was listed as one of the “must have” items on our baby registry website, so we registered for it. Initially I was impressed when someone purchased it for us and I opened it. I put it away until my Daughter was born. Flash forward to when my Daughter started teething at four months old. My first thought was “Oh! I’ll get Sophie out!” I washed her and promptly gave her to my Daughter, she was completely disinterested in it. Over the next few months I tried again and again to give her this overpriced rubber giraffe and she was completely disinterested in it. At that point I just planned on passing it onto my nephew and leaving it at that. Some kids don’t like certain toys, it’s not the toys fault. When I went to wash Sophie before sending her to my Nephew I noticed she looked a bit darker in a spot on her one leg. After further inspection I noticed it was a bit of mold. I always hand washed and throughly dried the toy so I wasn’t sure why it had mold on it. At this point I wondered if there could be mold inside and decided instead of passing on Sophie, I would cut the toy open. Honestly there was so much mold inside it was disgusting. If teething babies are drooling all over these and using them regularly I hate to think how much mold is inside of those. After this I’ve told a lot of people about what happened with our Sophie and many have cut theirs open to discover mold as well. Absolutely disgusting, I would highly avoid this item. -

My Daughter is a huge Paw Patrol fan. So much so that she always wanted to take the tiny plastic pup action figures with her to bed. I wasn’t exactly keen on that idea so my husband and I purchased her a collection of Paw Patrol stuffed animals. We have really gotten our money’s worth out of these toys. They were purchased back in April and they have been played with every single day. That’s right, every day. They have traveled everywhere with us, help brave sick days, comforted scraped knees, played outside, been on a airplane and so much more. When I first got them in the mail I questioned their durability but they have help up beautifully. The only thing wrong with them now are a few scuffs on their plastic noses. I have washed this set of stuffed pups endless amounts of time and tumble dried them on low and they’ve washed better than any other stuffed toy we have. I cannot recommend these stuffed pups enough! We now have several sets in varying sizes and they’re all the same great quality. -

I just purchased this as a Christmas gift for my three year old Daughter. I cannot wait until Christmas morning when she finally gets to open this up! It’s impressive in size and features, plus all of the Paw Patrol pups can fit in it at once. This vehicle is fitted with multiple water cannons, over 2ft extendible ladder, working lights and sirens, a mini vehicle and so much more. I have unpacked and tested all of the features and I’m impressed with the quality and durability. This fire truck will be sure to wow the Paw Patrol lover in your life Christmas morning. -

As with many families out there I have a very picky toddler when it comes to eating. One week she’ll love something and clean her plate. But the next week will throw a tantrum if I even ask if she would like some of that same item to eat. I don’t have time for that. Enter Paw Patrol chicken nuggets. They’re fast and easy to make and my daughter loves them. She’s into Paw Patrol Big time right now, so that also helps. I keep the nuggets stocked at our house because I can have them ready for her in a minute so we can get out the door for dance class on time. The only downside I’ve noticed is that I have to cook them a bit shorter than the recommended time or they dry out and get hard. I think that’s more my issue though, because I’m cooking only 2-3 nuggets, less than what’s suggested at once and I had to find a good balance on the cooking time. Highly recommend for Paw Patrol lovers, nugget lovers and busy families! -
