Surprise Kids on Christmas Morning with the Newest Building Sets from PLAYMOBIL-Giveaway

November 16, 2016 by Kathryn 150 Comments

When Benjamin was about four years old, he had birthday money to spend and used it to buy a PLAYMOBIL horse and stable set. It was my first experience with PLAYMOBIL and I fell in love with the high quality, interactive building/play sets at first sight. The company is constantly coming out with new themes and this year, PLAYMOBIL has some great choices for kids of all ages! Since Benjamin has just started skating and gained an interest in hockey, my personal favourites are the new PLAYMOBIL licenced NHL Hockey sets. Recently I received the NHL Score Clock with Referees and the NHL Arena so I could see for myself what they were like.

The NHL Score Clock features an actual working score clock and two referees, so that kids can keep track of the score as they pretend to play. With a countdown clock, sound effects and whistles for the referees, this set lets kids get the full hockey experience as they play! And with the logos of all the NHL teams emblazoning the clock, kids will be ready to cheer on their favourite teams. [Read more…]

TMNT Fans Will Love the Mega Bloks Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Battle Truck

November 1, 2016 by Kathryn 44 Comments

There are some things my boys enjoy that I don’t understand at all. Their obsession with watching other people play video games on YouTube is something that goes right over my head. And their love of jump scare games completely confuses me.

But there are some types of entertainment that we can all agree on, and one is the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles! The mutant superheroes were favourites of mine when I was a child so now that they’re back in action, I couldn’t be happier to see that my boys love them just as much.

The DVD release of the newest TMNT movie, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows, means that there are even more fans of Leonardo and his crew these days, and if you’re starting to hunt for that perfect gift for your favourite Turtles fan, Mega Bloks has just what you’re looking for! The Mega Bloks Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Battle Truck Building Set features the Battle Truck from the movie, three TMNT figures and so much more! [Read more…]

Combine Fun and Learning with Magformers Building Sets-Giveaway

August 19, 2015 by Kathryn 164 Comments

When it comes to finding the best toys for my boys, I tend to favour those that encourage creativity. That’s why building blocks have been a favourite with Zackary and Benjamin for years now; the building possibilities are only limited by the imagination of my children. But recently I had the chance to review a toy that gave children a different way to create…Magformers! These clever geometric shapes contain magnets on each side so that they can snap together in all kinds of ways.

Recently I had the chance to review some of the newest Magformers sets and I knew my boys would be only too happy to help me out. I received the Unique 44pc set and the WOW 27pc set to review. I loved the idea of a set that included wheels since my boys love any kind of vehicle. But they had just as much fun seeing how many shapes they could build with the Unique set!

Build and Race with Modarri Model Car Sets from Borgfeldt Canada-Giveaway

July 10, 2015 by Kathryn 86 Comments

My oldest son has always had a love of cars. And while he doesn’t quite invent as many fanciful racing stories as he once did, he still will often spend hours driving his favourite cars around the house. In fact, one of the few things that Zackary loves even more than cars is building sets. And that’s why I knew he would appreciate the Modarri model building sets offered by Borgfeldt Canada as soon as I saw them.

These sets come in a variety of fun colours and styles sure to please any future racer. We received the Modarri 3-Pack to review and my boys couldn’t wait to sit down and start building. While the sets are recommended for ages eight and up, I knew my nine-year-old would be happy to help his little brother build a car too, which made it a great activity for the two of them to do together.

Build and Battle with New Mega Bloks Skylanders SWAP Force Skyland Spinners

March 18, 2014 by Kathryn 64 Comments

My oldest son’s taste in toys have really changed a lot in the last year or so as his fine motor skills have developed and his imagination has expended. I have to admit that his favourite activity is playing video games, but to ensure that he’s not spending too much time in front of a screen, I also like to make sure we have lots of more interactive toy choices for him.

The new Mega Bloks Skylanders SWAP Force Skyland Spinners were the type of toy that I knew Zackary would love. Combining a building set with a spinning disc game was the perfect way to keep his interest. The collectible nature of the Skylanders SWAP Force sets was instantly appealing and even though Zackary doesn’t play the Skylanders video game, he does love battle spinning games! He had a great time building the characters and then launching them at each other to see which one would spin longest. [Read more…]
