Stack Attack! Review of Fisher Price's Stack & Explore Blocks Toy for Baby

We have several sets of stacking blocks here. We have circles, stars, bowls, cups, etc. Cocoa Puff was given these stacking blocks and so we added them to our arsenal. It is a set of 5 brightly colored blocks that nest inside each other as well as stack. They are a little harder to stack than the circles since you have to line up the sides. 

Greenage: Hape Toys Pretend Play Wood & Felt Salad Set For Kids (A Review)

Froot Loop got a play salad set from Hape for Christmas last year. He went through a salad phase when he would eat a lot of lettuce, so Santa Claus thought he would love this pretend salad set that he could eat over and over and over again! 

Stack and roll, Rock and roll: The Present (That He LOVES) My Son Got From a Mathematician

One of our favorite toys we got last Christmas was the Fisher Price Briliant Basics Stack and Roll Cups. My mathematician aunt got these for Cocoa Puff, and as a physics major, I totally approve! I would approve even if I wasn’t a total math nerd though. 

EXTERMIN-TATER! WHAT!? This is one of those things I saw and just HAD to buy for myself. Doctor Who Fans: READ THIS!

You know, sometimes you just need to buy yourself something amusing. Laughter is the best medicine after all. I bought this earlier this year when I was having a rough time. I still smile now whenever I see it. 

In the light of the moon, a little egg lay on a leaf... Here's the cutest Eric Carle Themed Baby Toy EVER

I can’t think of anyone who doesn’t like The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle. It’s one of those books that every baby seems to have in their little libraries. It’s a classic! 

Camping camping: A DOUBLE review of two Pretend Camping Set Toys

One of our favorite things to do is go camping. We haven't done it nearly as much since Cocoa Puff was born, but we have taken Froot Loop a few times. The plan is to start camping again with both of them in the spring, before it starts getting too hot. 

This is my son's new FAVORITE Train Track: Review of Chuggington Train Track (AKA. the woo woo train)

My boys are obsessed with trains. Froot Loop has had this obsession for as long as I can remember. He has several different train tracks, and each one serves a different purpose. One of the most versatile and easiest to play with is this one: The Chuggington Train Track

A Double Review of Android Boxes: The Android Equivalent to Roku or Apple TV, Chromecast, or the Fire Stick

We are very into technology around here. The 4 year old already knows his way around a tablet and the basics of a Linux computer. The 1 year old can already use a mouse. We feel that technology is a part of us and is all around us and is an invaluable tool that they will need to master at a very young age. No worries, they still have books and play outside and have lots of toys that don't require batteries. Everything in moderation. That being said, we bought two different Android boxes to try to find one for Froot Loop to use.
