New Softy Soakers by Aurora Review and Contest!


These are SUCH great ideas!  Kids love stuffed animals, and now I know that mine was not the only child begging me to let him bring his favorite toys into the tub, LOL.  These new Softy Soakers toys from Aurora are adorable, small stuffed animals made to be taken into the bath. 

The “Fanta Sea” collection (MSRP: $10 each) includes a sea horse, octopus, hammerhead shark, dolphin, sea turtle and alligator. “All you have to do is fill a bowl with water and drop in the Softy Soaker. We suggest massaging it for speedy water absorption. Then after 40 seconds, grab a towel, “rub-a-dub-dub” it dry and you’re ready for some fun.”

Little Man wants the whole set!  They shrink over time, and only takes about 40 seconds to “grow” full sized. 
One of you will win your own Aurora softy soakers toy.

Shopping for Halloween Candy with Mars #DontBeTheDarkHouse #CBias

This was such a fun shop!  I love that I get to send a little Halloween fun to a friend who was just saying that she was in need of some chocolate, LOL. 

My bloggy buddy over at Closer to Lucy was an easy choice for who to send over this cute “Boo Bag” to, since not only is she a fab friend, but literally that very day was saying that she wanted chocolate- so it seemed only appropriate!

I don’t know that this bag will be a surprise for her, since I am posting the day before I am mailing it (sorry girl, you know I am leaving for Ohio tomorrow for the Bob Evans Farm Festival, LOL) but hey- all chocolate is good chocolate, and it’s even better when it’s Halloween candy, yeah?  😛

Kamikaze, Little Man, and Daddy all came with me on this trip, and we got a few things we were going to pick up for our trip anyway, like a camera case and sno-balls (Little Man’s fav travel snack, and the only time I let him have them, LOL)  Daddy is going to mail this package to Miss Lucy tomorrow since I will be leaving before the post office opens- it’s now sitting on the table in a box, addressed and ready to go!  (AND I even set an alarm on his phone so he can’t say he “forgot”, lol)

Check out My Moment for all the fun pics and to see our shopping trip  🙂
Have fum, and Happy Halloween!

ToonUps- Great Games for the Whole Family!

Are you tired of your kids playing games on Facebook like Mafia Wars or Global Warfare?  Wouldn’t be nice to play a game that is not only non-violent but also one that actually teaches your kids something without them even knowing it.  Well give A Better World a try.  This is a new game brought to us by ToonUp. 

What I find interesting about this game is how it pulls together quite a few different elements, plant cultivation, visiting friends, sharing gifts, shopping, customizing your character and clothing, etc.  While also bringing a warmth that is hard to find sometimes.  Take a look at the Sanctuary of Hope at the Countryside and you will find some heartfelt wishes from people all over the globe or even just your friends from down the block.  There is a total of .fifteen locations to explore including: Gratitude Grotto, Cake Cart and Department of Do Good. 

Each location has special good deed components, The Cake Cart lets you send love to anyone of your friends.  The Department of Do Good lets people share their real world good deeds..  Another component of the game is the Arcade, Inside the players can play mini games to gain more points.  ToonUps plan with this new game is to bring about a new genre of “do good gaming”.  I hope this does take off its a great idea and great execution.

Disclosure- I was given the opportunity to share my thoughts and opinions on A Better World. I received a $50 gift card as a thank you for my participation. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Branson, Missouri

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Hiltons of Branson for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.
Have all of you heard about Branson yet?  Branson is quickly becoming a go to spot for family fun where there is something for everyone.    There are hundreds of shops, attractions, golf and Silver Dollar City.  All of Branson is at your door step when you stay at either the luxury AND pet friendly Hilton Promenade at Branson Landing or the warm inviting and also pet friendly Hilton Branson Convention Center Hotel .  The cool park about booking a hotel in these suites is the packages, you can get a package that includes admission to Silver Dollar City, golfing, or just airfare a car and the hotel.  Whatever your pick you can save some money and still have a really good time.  Silver Dollar City is a wild west themed amusement park full of rides and fun.  Directly downstairs from the Promenade is the Level 2 steak house, who doesn’t like a nice salad or chicken dish or an award winning steak of course. 🙂

Over the holidays Branson goes all out.  The Level 2 steakhouse has a special Thanksgiving brunch and “Turkey to go”.  While the hotels themselves offer special Santa Claus packages where included with the room is  breakfast with Santa at the Level 2 restaurant and a present for your little ones.  This package starts at $228 a night.  I would definitely suggest branching out a bit for the holidays- you deserve a break too, you know 🙂
