December 2, 2016 by Kathryn 93 Comments

Almost everyone has at least one die-hard traveler on their holiday shopping list and if you’re wondering what to get your favourite wanderer, Master Lock has some great choices for helping to keep travellers safe as they wander the world! Here are my top three choices for travel gifts this Christmas:

1) Master Lock 5900D Safe Space

The Safe Space has always been one of my favourite Master Lock products. It’s portable, durable and is sized just right for keeping cash, passports and insurance paperwork secure, whether you’re heading out on a road trip or flying to another country. The cable cord lets you lock the Safe Space to an immovable item for extra security, while a simple four-digit code provides quick access to the contents when you need it. [Read more…]

Let Your Kids Get a Little Gross this Christmas with The Ugglys Pet Shop-Giveaway

December 7, 2015 by Kathryn 76 Comments

Do your kids prefer weird and gross to cute and cuddly? Do they laugh hysterically at rude noises and bad smells? Does just saying the word “fart” cause a reaction in your house? Then this Christmas, the perfect gift may just be The Ugglys Pet Shop toys! These bizarre pets may not seem lovable, but kids can’t get enough of their weird wackiness.

Recently I received an assortment of The Ugglys Pet Shop figurines and accessories to review, and with two school-aged boys in the house, I was pretty sure they’d be popular. I liked the collectible size of the pets and I have to admit that they really were pretty cute, in a gross way! Just like real pets, there were cats, dogs, birds, monkeys and lizards to choose from, all with their own unique style. [Read more…]

The LeapFrog #LeapTV is a Holiday Gift that Gets Kids Moving and Learning #LeapFrogMomSquad

November 20, 2015 by Kathryn 7 Comments

My boys love gaming systems and while I understand the appeal (I’m a bit of a gamer myself), I don’t like how long they sometimes spend sitting and staring blankly at the television. As for the games themselves, some have cleverly incorporated educational content into the games, but others provide almost no intellectual benefit. So what’s a mom with two game-crazy kids to do?

Turn to the LeapFrog LeapTV, of course! My boys have had LeapFrog hand-held gaming systems for years now and I’ve seen for myself how effectively the systems combine fun and learning. Now, LeapTV is taking the benefits one step further with a gaming system that’s designed to get kids moving as they play and learn!
