Holiday Gift Guide: Toys“R”Us “Fabulous 15: LEGO Legends of Chima™ The Lion CHI Temple from LEGO®
Legos, a kids best friend! I really believe this after seeing my son in action with any Lego set we have given him. He is 6 years old and a HUGE lego fan.

Smurfs 2 Wii Game Review
I am a HUGE Smurf fan, and always have been so when I heard about the new Smurfs 2 game that was out for the Wii I was super excited. I have happily passed my Smurf love down to the kiddos who hijacked the game as soon as it arrived and even cleaned their rooms with out me asking so they could play it. The game is easy to play, all 3 of the kids had no issues jumping in and getting started and what is great is that they can all play … [Read more...]
{Review} God Of War Saga for PlayStation 3
The God of War Series on PlayStation 2 and 3 has been one of my all-time favorites. It has all the elements to be a great series. Engaging story, great characters, and awesome graphics and sound.

Not only do you get God of War 1, 2, and 3, but it also includes the two God of War games that were on the PSP (which is the first Sony Handheld device). To … [Read more...]

My daughter who is 7 was and still is a big fan of the Pinkalicious DS game, which she got in December to review and so when she saw that they were coming out with a Silverlicious game the first thing she asked was if she was good and kept her room clean everyday if I would get it for her.

Striv: Exercise, Have fun and help the world all in one!
Recently this really nifty gadget came out, it is called Striv. To be honest when I was asked if I wanted to review one I was not sure what to think of it. I was a bit confused as to what exactly it would do for me, I am not a walker in fact the only time that I was really motivated to walk was when my oldest was 6 months old and hubby was in basic training and I wanted to surprise him with losing all the weight I had gained when I was pregnant … [Read more...]

Review: Camping Mama Outdoor Adventures (for Nintendo DS)
We were recently sent Camping Mama to review and my daughter and I love it! It reminds me of Zelda, which is one of my favorite games, but this is more like a girl scout type version, which is great for little girls. The point of the game is to go around the woods and build your camp site. There are mini games through out the game to play that are fairly easy for little ones to play. My daughter is 6 years old and have no problems being able to … [Read more...]

I love the Nintendo Wii! It is such a great way for my family and I to have some good, quality family fun and many of the games can be found at great prices too!

Along with having all the great features … [Read more...]

Review: Mario Vs Donkey Kong Mini-Land Mayhem! for Nintendo DS
We recently received the Nintendo DS game, Mario Vs. Donkey Kong Mini-Land Mayhem, I had my 6 year old daughter play it to see what she thought of it and for the first 3 weeks we had it any time we had to go in the car she would ask if she could bring it with us and play it trying to get some extra video game time in. I am sure if she had it her way she would have walked around doing nothing but play this game since she was … [Read more...]

My kids did not see the Spy Kids Movie but they had a blast playing Spy Kids, All the Time In the World. In the game you alternate between being 2 different players, Rebecca and Cecil. Each character has different … [Read more...]
Review: Super Mario Brothers for DS
Now it may just be me but I really enjoy the "old school" games for the DS, and well actually all game systems also. I am sure I am not the only one. While playing Nintendo's Super Mario Brother for the Nintendo DS it totally reminded me of Super Mario Land that I used to play as a kid on my Game Boy! Of course the Super Mario Brothers is a bit different and the levels are different but it is the same concept which is awesome. I was able to jump … [Read more...]
