North American Bear Review and C0NTEST #Easter @NABearCo

My son love, loves, loves Easter. As holiday fun goes, he likes Christmas- but he LOVES Easter. He’s a wacky kid, what can I say? As a lover of all things cute and cuddly, my sweet boy gets very excited about hugging the Easter Bunny, and the bunny coming to our house to leave him a basket. Dying eggs, the special church service- it’s all special to him. And we all know that Easter food is the best of the year! (If you disagree- you are clearly NOT Italian! LOL)

I love finding fun Easter toys for him. One of my favorite finds is North American Bear Co, not just because thee toys are cute- which they are. They are also innovative, interesting, and machine washable.


Yes- you read that right. Almost all the toys can be machine washed. If your child has ever vomited, pooped, or even dropped his or her toy into something….unsavory…..you know what a lifesaver this is. We have all scrubbed our little pumpkin’s favorite “lovie” in a sink because it had “ew” all over it and it couldn’t be washed in your machine. WHY, toy makers, why do this to your customers? Not North American Bear! They make toys with both mom’s and kids in mind- safe for even the youngest babies, loved by kids of all ages, and coveted by mommies everywhere- since they won’t be spending an hour washing it in a sink after thier little [Read more…]

New HexBugs Scarab Review and Contest @HEXBUG

HexBugs are back and they brought a new friend- the Scarab. The Scarab is a six-legged, battery operated bug which has bug like behavior patterns and can flip itself over when upside down. Little Man thoroughly enjoys this one. It moves at a very quick pace, much quicker then the other HexBugs we have seen. Although it doesn’t seem as complex as the larva, the Scarab is still quite interesting and a very smart robot.

It will skitter and run around, and when met with an obstacle it moves with such speed it actually bounces about and [Read more…]

Single Moms are Going Back to College on their Own Time

As a single mother, work is never “done.” For that reason, there has to be more flexibility than you normally find in traditional colleges and universities. Without online programs, these schools simply make life difficult for a mother trying to earn a degree. Even if you do have evening and night classes, it’s a lot to expect of someone who has multiple obligations, works at a job already and has to take care of the house, even while away from it. Online colleges provide a flexible, motivational way to get an education without the rest of the hassle. Mothers can simply focus on studying and turning in assignments that they need to in order to get the grade. Getting a degree from home offers other benefits as well. For one, you can get a better job.

If you have children already, then you understand the type of strength it takes to work a full day and take care of everything. It’s also the way that tons of mothers get stuck in a routine, unable to get out of their current jobs because they lack the proper qualifications. Education is the one way that mothers can get ahead, not only for themselves but for the families that they support. It really isn’t so different working from home on a degree. More than ever, universities are offering online courses and even entire degree programs that are taught solely online. With the use of amazing new Internet technology, it’s actually more integrated and intelligent than many think. There [Read more…]
