Scooters are one of the best ways to help kids stay active. They’re easy to learn to use, can be played with indoorss and out, and come in all kinds of fun and colourful designs.
But when it comes to buying scooters for kids, the choices can be overwhelming!
Wondering what scooter is best for your kids? I’ll go over the features of some of the top scooters I’ve tested below, and share my favourite five picks for scooters for kids based on your child’s age and needs.
When fall hits and colder temperatures start to keep my boys indoors a little more, I love finding some new toys that will encourage them to play creatively…preferably without a screen!
And this year, with most kids having done months of online schooling, finding screen-free ways to engage little ones is even more important! Luckily, these five new toys offer something for everyone!

When my youngest brother was a toddler, he loved watching Thomas, the plucky tank engine, and his friends as the got into mischief and had adventures on the Island of Sodor. When I had my own boys years later, I had the chance to see how Thomas had evolved for a new generation with the debut of the Thomas & Friends series.
I’m sure that Thomas will continue to be a favourite for years to come, and that’s why I was so excited to receive the new Thomas & Friends Adventures Sea Monster Pirate Set to review. My eight-year-old son loves creating stories with playsets and I knew he would have a blast with this one. [Read more…]
With summer here and kids home from school, finding a way to provide a little extra entertainment is always a good thing. And this summer, NCircle Entertainment, HIT Entertainment and Fisher-Price have a very special set of Mike the Knight products that will be sure to keep younger children captivated!
Mike the Knight is the new hit Nick Jr. television show that emphasises skills such as problem solving and making responsible choices to its younger audience. My three-year-old is a huge fan of the show but even my seven-year-old loves watching it sometimes too. It’s always a plus for me when I can find a quality show that both my boys enjoy.
My boys are just starting to get to the age at which they can play games together instead of always just making up stories with their toys. Benjamin has a little bit of a problem taking turns sometimes but with some guidance, he and his brother both have a great time playing simple board games together. So when I got the chance to review Hold On Scooby Doo, a fun new game from RP Toys, I was delighted.
This game take the concept of stacking and balancing that is found in some other games to a new, kid-friendly level with a spooky ghost wall, plastic ghost hand pieces to push out bricks and a hilarious Scooby Doo and Shaggy figurine to balance on top of the wall. Basically, players use the ghost hands to push bricks out of the wall and see which one will make Scooby Doo and Shaggy fall first.
