I’m a gamer, but not a gamer per se. I like to play video games, but aren’t very good at the newer ones. However, I grew up with the classic video games; they’ll always have a place in my heart and I could still probably beat 75% of people reading this on Robotron. It’s because of my staunch old-school settings that I was surprised that I enjoyed reading Guinness World Records 2015 Gamer’s Edition.

I partnered and was compensated by Life of Dad, LLC and TuneIn for this promotion. If you’re really into your college football location shouldn’t matter. Really what kind of fan are you that you don’t put life on hold in the fall months so that you can tailgate at your alma mater? Well, some of my friends do put August through December on hold so that they can at least hear the college football games. A much easier solution is the TuneIn app. With this simple app, that is free, you can listen to football and basketball coverage of 85 teams.

Those headphones were even hand me downs from my sister.

The toys in 2014 have finally combined two of my favorite things as a child in Star Wars Command Millennium Falcon. It has 33 vehicles and figures including three AT-ATs, Snowtroopers, Snowspeeders, Rebel Soldiers and more.

This post is brought to you by The Motherhood and Moms With Apps. All opinions are my own. Apps are the new gift card to children who learn from tablets. Parents want the apps to have value, not be a waste of their money and to do what the child needs to accomplish from their tablet. We’ve mentioned before about how Moms With Apps shortcuts the search criteria for parents looking for the correct app. You can search by device, age range, subject and more. But, how should you handle your app quest when it’s being used as a gift?

Children love to create things. Well, everybody loves to create things really. Ask a child if they can sing and they’ll belt out something with abandon. Ask an adult the same question and your answer will be more muted. Ask anyone if they like to play with Play-Doh and you’ll always get the same answer, yes. Seek and Squish is a new app from Play-Doh where you can squish the Play-Doh creations on the screen to reveal the hiding places of animals.

To a parent, toys and tech can be the backbone of your existence. With two boys we know action and vehicle toys quite well, hint: Star Wars.

Just like the music, book and movie gift guide, this one has choices that you might’ve missed and a couple that are off the beaten path.
