My son (and I, I have to admit) have been fans of Yo Gabba Gabba for more than a year now. We don’t watch a lot of television, but when we do, it’s usually Yo Gabba Gabba. We love the music, the characters and of course the special guests. When we heard they were going on tour, and would be performing at a town near us, I knew we had to go. We had since indoctrinated Mommy, and after a few big events such as a They Might Be Giants kids concert and a major league baseball game, we knew our three year old was ready for the show. I got online to buy tickets as soon as they went on sale, and nabbed seats in the center of the fourth row. Click below to read my review of the show, and don’t forget our chances to win tickets to go see the show yourself! Read the rest of this entry »

My son is about two and three quarters (ah those were the days) and he just got into Play-Doh. He set his eye on the Coco-Nutty Monkey one visit to Toys R Us. We were having serious discussions about potty training so we picked up the mnkey, and told him he could play with it as soon as he gave up diapers. Three weeks later, we haven’t had an “accident” in days and someone is looooving their Coco-nutty monkey. Check out my pics and review below. Read the rest of this entry »
Step2.com sent us their Play Up Adjustable Sand & Water Table. One of the key features is that the legs are easily adjustable so you can raise the table height to grow with your child. It also features an umbrella to protect against the sun, and an easy to attach cover to protect it from the elements. Click below to see my pics and review. Read the rest of this entry »
This was awesome. He finally understood what it meant to go to Toys R Us. He even said “Daddy… Toys R Us, Baby… Toys R Us, Mommy…. STAY HOME”
He knows.

My two and a half year old son has taken it upon himself to demonstrate how to change a diaper. We filmed this, with absolutely no coaching on our part. Enjoy!
As you know, I went on African Safari last fall and took tons of pictures of the wildlife. Then I went to Toy Fair and fell in love with the African safari animals being made by German toy company Schleich. If you’re unfamiliar, Schleich makes thousand of ultra realistic animals and fantasy creatures. They’re made of a hard rubber so they’re practically indestructable. They’re hand painted so they look great, and because they’re so rugged, they fulfill the Schleich mission of turning anyplace into a playground. The kids can play with these animals indoors or out, and they’ll last for years.
