A look at the all age toys for Jurassic World

The other day at the gym when I was picking Jake up from their daycare the worker asked me if he had seen Jurassic World. He was wearing a Jurassic Park t-shirt and had told some kids that he’d seen the new movie. For the record he hasn’t see it and Jurassic World is a hard PG-13. However, the toys for Jurassic World are awesome for all ages. They have a variety of dinosaurs and action vehicles that are detailed enough for kids 5 and up, but have big enough features for those that are 3 or older. We were sent the Playskool Heroes Jurassic World Dino Tracker Helicopter to review and here are our thoughts.

My old box and small people building big things with LEGO

It was just a cardboard box, 1’ wide and 1’6” deep, but it is the thing that I remember most from my childhood. Granted, part of that memory is what was in the box.  It was the mid 70’s and in my closet were all my cool toys. I had a tray full of Time-Life WW II cards, lots of comic books, Hot Wheels and in that cardboard box were all of my LEGOs.

Kiditec is the best building block toy you’ve never heard of

We received a copy of the toy for review.  All thoughts are our own and not something we just put together…..  Just what parent’s need, another building block toy.  But wait, Kiditec is different and actually fills a void.  Imagine a durable, building block toy that your child can construct with plastic screws and a big plastic screwdriver.  This toy has wheels, can move and be built upon any number of ways.  Its only limit are the number of pieces you have and your child’s imagination.  That is Kiditec.

Alilo is an interactive, story and music gadget for crawlers to toddlers

Find someone who has never seen anything Japanese looking.  You know what I mean.  Certain products from Japan have a look.  Alilo has that look.  I see Alilo and it is kawaii incarnate.  Alilo is a simple device that can entertain crawlers and toddlers in a variety of ways.  It plays music, tells stories, sings nursery rhymes and can record personal messages from you.

Oh Chuggington, we’ve avoided you for so long.  Really, we need another train show like we need small, pointy toys on the floor that the children don’t pick up.  To my surprise, both children, the 5 and 3YO loved the DVD, Snow Rescue and the playset, Koko’s Icy Escapade.

Need to upgrade your photo tech? Best Buy has it all

The reviewer has been compensated in the form of a Best Buy Gift Card and/or received the product/service at a reduced price or for free.  Even before I was a dad I loved photography.  It gave me the chance to chronicle my trips and travels.  Today’s new cameras make me thankful for the images I was able to capture and let’s my mind wander about the prospects of me travelling with a high quality digital camera.  There are lots of cameras at Best Buy, but they’ve got some storming deals on three of them in particular now; all of which I’ve played with and one that I own and use every day.  Plus all three are equipped with built in WI-FI.

Shoot to save, with the Cannon EOS Rebel T5i at Best Buy this #HintingSeason

The review has been compensated in the form of a Best Buy Gift Card and/or received the product/service at a reduced price or for free.  Save as in save memories and save money, both are things that parents want to do.  We’re talking about the Cannon EOS Rebel T5i, I know, it just sounds like it should be starring with Arnold Schwarzennegar in the latest robot movie.  In real life it’s one of the simplest ways for you to shoot HD video and 18.0 megapixel photos like a pro.
