I received products in order to facilitate my post. All words and opinions are my own.

Bubbles is at the age where she wants to do so many different things, but doesn’t always have the skill set to accomplish them.  Like when she tried to jump on a skateboard when we were at the store recently.  No, thank you, we do not need a trip to the ER today.

There are also a number of different craft projects she sees on TV or when she’s sitting with me and I’m looking at Pinterest.  “Mama, let’s do that!” is something I love to hear, but as they involve sewing or massive amounts of scissor work I often have to reply, “We can when you’re older”.

If you were to look at the apps on my phone, in addition to all the social media apps (and the requisite farming games), you’d also find quite a few preschooler apps.  She thinks they’re fun, and I love that she’s learning while playing them.  I’m pretty sure I didn’t know what a habitat or all the planets when I was 3; score one for technology.

Back before Christmas I shared a really fun playset from Pinypon. The Ski Lodge and Snow Car were perfect for the winter months, letting Bubbles have some pretend snow play to match the season, especially on the days it was too cold to actually go out in the snow. Long after the weather has turned warm, she’s still played with it consistently.

We have been so pleased with all our products from Famosa that when they asked if we’d like to try the Pinypon Aquapark Adventures set, I definitely said yes. The quality and attention to detail that they pay with their products always makes them a home run. Continue reading »

Recently we received a copy of the new My Little Pony Friendship is Magic: A Dash of Awesome DVD.  Bubbles discovered the show on TV not too long ago and really seemed to enjoy it, so it was good timing for us to share our thoughts with you on it.

My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic: A Dash of Awesome is a compilation of episodes all about Rainbow Dash.  Rainbow Dash is actually one of the ponies I remember from when I was growing up, and I always enjoyed her spunk and enthusiasm, so this was a fun DVD for us to watch.  We were pleasantly surprised at how much content there was, too, as the DVD was a full 120 minutes.

My favorite episode on the DVD was “May The Best Pet Win!”  Rainbow Dash is trying to choose the best pet for her and there are a lot that would like the job.  She tends to think that her pet needs to be special, fast, and better than anyone else.  So she sets up a competition to pick the winner, but learns a little something about what makes a good companion along the way.
