Oriental Trading will get you ready for Halloween or Harvest Parties!

The fact is Halloween is 23 days away and if you are like me and doing another community event less days to that event! I have my idea for a costume, we have ordered more Oriental trading items because candy is not needed at every place and is too expensive!

Here in my town we have fun with the Witches Walk/Trunk or Treat with our families. I have the privilege of helping with the planning and organization of the event. This year thanks to Oriental Trading we have these two new games, Jack O' Lantern Disk Game, and the Monster Bean Bag Toss to add to all the fun on the levee.

With the new games we needed some cool prizes to go along with them. I picked out yo-yo's, notebooks, kazoos, and ball puzzles. These monster yo-yo's are adorable to look at and seemed to work well.

I am always looking for more doodle notebooks and these are just the right size. Kids will enjoy the goofy eyes on these fun notebooks.

I kept the monster theme and found these crazy looking ball puzzles that will keep your child occupied for awhile. Why not say not to handing candy out this year and find some great alternatives from Oriental Trading.

My son wants to master the Kazoo! He thought it was broken at first because he is not familiar with how they work. I hope parents don't get mad when their child won't stop playing their new musical instrument. :)

My kids were super excited to get there hands on the game and are looking forward to our community event to play these games again. The Jack O' Lantern Disk Game is a big hit. It did however fall over a few times. I will be finding a way to anchor it in better with the wooden dowel.

The bean bag toss was adorable but I wish they were a thicker plastic or tin like a normal tin can. They seemed just fine when my kids played but I am nervous that they might crack or break with some stronger and bigger kids throwing the bean bags.

"The Reading Game" Review and Giveaway

Description: The first book in The Reading Game learn-to-read series tells the story of a skunk without a stripe who is rejected by the other skunks but finds acceptance among some cats and becomes their defender. It’s told in rhyme, is beautifully illustrated, and is 32 pages long. It will be the first book the student reads, and there are five more to follow in this groundbreaking learn to read program. Each of The Reading Game's six stories is told using just thirty new words. These are broken down into six sets of five words. The student learns to read each set of five words by playing a simple word matching game. Frequent exposure through play hard wires these words into long-term memory. Rote learning is transformed into a fast-paced game with a winner every few seconds. After completing Skunk, Game 1, the student has learned five words (can, cat, is, me, not). Playing Game 2 adds an additional five words (sad, she, stay, this, with). The s

Dry Idea: Deodorant Review and Giveaway

I know most of you know I was at kids camp last week and I think I mentioned the humidity and heat that we had that week! I was daring as I only brought my new Dry Idea deodorant that I had never used prior. I had no idea if it was going to keep me from smelling like B.O or if I was going to have sweaty pits. So how did the Dry Idea hold up to the hot and humid days at kids camp??? Arms raised high during worship in the morning and in the evening! :) I was dry and I did not stink! :) WOOT WOOT! I had the unscented brand and I usually do prefer a pretty scent but it worked and they do have scents which include powder fresh and cotton dry that I might try in the future. :) The Dry Idea Roll-On is 24 hour protection, fast drying MicroCotton Formula, hypo allergenic, and contains Vitamin E. :) Don't like roll on's?? They do offer Clear Gel and an Invisible Solid. :) Dry Idea provided a free sample of their Advanced Dry roll-On so I could review them. However,
