Put Prime Time Toys under the tree!!

With all the toys that are available nowadays, its hard to tell sometimes which ones the kids are going to like, which ones might not hold up well, are you getting value for your money. We recently got the coolest Rocket Blaster from Prime Time Toys and all Boug wants to do is play with it all the time!
Boug got a hand held rocket shooter for her birthday from some no-name company, and it was fun, but shortly after we got it, it fell apart. How disappointing! The Prime Time Toys Rocket Blaster is made to be a quality toy that won't let you down, its not flimsy or junky. Its sturdy and definitely will hold up through time after time of shooting the rockets!

Stomping on the launch pad to send your rockets flying is so much fun and I have to admit that the husband and I even got in on Boug's fun! We had the rockets going all over the yard, and with the ability to launch over 200 feet!!

You can pick up a Prime Time Toys Rocket Blaster at Diana Toy Store, browse the catalog of other great Prime Time Toys items at their site or even pick some up online at Amazon.com!

Opinions are my own, I was provided items free of charge to review (by Prime Time Toys), which in no way changed the way I feel about the product!

Daisy Greenway Interactive Camper FUN!

When the school day is said and done, the homework has been put away, dinner has been gulped up and its time for the kiddos to play... what's the toy of choice?

Boug loves spending time with my parents, like most kids like spending time with their grandparents, but their thing is hanging out in their camper. They're in the process of building their new house, its coming down to the wire and instead of paying rent on the house they were staying in, they decided to just live out of their camper for the last two months of the build. Boug loves nothing more than to have "camp-overs" with them at the property.So when I had the chance to get my hands on the Daisy Greenway Interactive Camper, I knew that Boug had to have it!! The Learning Curve has been one of my favorite brands for a while now and the Daisy Greenway has just solidified it even more for me! I love when there's a toy that Boug doesn't lose interest in, and if I could have 5 great toys for her versus 100 crappy toys, life would be good.The Daisy Greenway Interactive Camper is a part of Learning Curve's Caring Corners line and is already one of those gifts on my holiday giving list... with tons of activities, sounds, words and sounds about the great outdoors. I love that it just looks happy, Boug loves the grill most of all though. Even Lil' Bud will get in on it and keep honking Daisy's horn to hear all the songs and sounds! The Daisy Greenway even encourages eco-responsibility by having recycling bins on board! I love it!

You can see an interactive demo here, purchase at the Learning Curve store, or order at amazon.com.

Quick reminder, I'm just passing these deals on to you as I see them. I am not in charge of any actual pricing and Amazon changes its prices as it sees fit. Please dont blame me if something changes before you get to it at the price I quoted. These sales come quick and sometimes go quick. I've seen them even go LOWER than the prices that I had originally posted!!

Let me know if and what you've picked up from any of my "great deal" posts!! I'd love to know!!
