Webkinz Jr Review

Our son, who will be 9 next month, has been collecting Webkinz plush toys for a few years now. Every time we allowed him to buy a Webkinz, we bought our younger son one too even though he wasn’t old enough to play on the Webkinz website. Instead, he played with his plush pet and happily handed the code off to his older brother to use online. Now, with the arrival of the new Webkinz Jr for kids 3-6, our 5 year old can enjoy playing online too!

Yes, folks, he makes 8 different farting sounds with a squeeze of his tail. A few of them are particularly funnier than the rest so my boys and I have found ourselves squeezing Norman’s tail over and over just to hear them! Read more

PlasmaCar Riding Toy Review + Win One!

Are you tired of recharging or buying new batteries for your child’s ride on toys? If you want a toy for your child that is innovative and operates on pure energy rather than batteries then I want to introduce you to the PlasmaCar.

The PlasmaCar is a riding toy that moves solely from your child’s energy. It works by moving the steering wheel from side to side. It uses the natural forces of inertia, centrifugal force, gravity, and friction to move. No peddling involved! The only thing that is necessary is a smooth and flat surface for the PlasmaCar to work properly.
