Hasbro Adds Sesame Street To Their Toy Line

The NY Toy Fair was this past week, and I was invited to a special sneak peak at the Hasbro showroom. They had a great presentation to introduce Sesame Street to their toy line.

I got to meet Elmo and Cookie Monster(yes they are just people in costumes), but I did get to see the actual puppets and hear them talk.

The Sesame Street Toy line will feature everything from plush animals to playdoh, All due out this Fall.

There is one Toy that I know is going to be a hot item out this fall, the one toy that parents camp out for and fight in the store.

Lets Rock Elmo

Here is the demonstration:

Pretty Little Liars Soundtrack

I have been addicted to the show Pretty Little Liars, every episode ends leaving you in suspense and wanting to know more.

They just released the Pretty Little Liars soundtrack and I have to say my favorite song is Secret by the Pierces, It fits the theme of the show so well.

Two other songs I like are:

Beauty Queens by Ben’s Brother, This song can be heard in the pilot episode when Aria and Ezra meet and start talking. It fits perfect because Aria is definitely Beauty Queen material and he is out of her league.  The tone of the scene is flirtatious and romantic.

I won’t By Colbie Caillet, This song can also be heard on the Pilot episode when Aria comes back from her trip to europe with her family. They are unpacking and she is approached by her father about his secret in which she replies…. I didn’t tell and I won’t. So the song I won’t goes perfectly with this scene, and sets the mood with a moody feel.

You can see more about the soundtrack in this video

Crocs Berryesa Boots Review

Product Description:  warm upper and a croslite material sole this winter boot will keep your feet warm and snug all winter long.

Features:

  • Buffed Croslite material gives a sophisticated look and feel.
  • Rubber outsole pods for increased traction and durability.
  • Seude upper with tricot lining for comfort and warmth.

****I was so excited to try these boots, we have had tons of snow out here and I needed something warm and durable. When I first received them I was a little discouraged, because the footing was a little wide, but the upper part that covers your calf was too small. So i can’t pull them all the way up, and I can’t tuck my pants inside either.  I did wear them out in the snow and they did keep my feet very warm and were very sturdy on the snow. Once I reached ice I fell, so not very good on ice.  Also the first day i received them the insoles started coming out whenever i would try to take them off, but it slides right back in. Besides those few things I still like these boots and wear them in the cold weather.

Minnie’s Masquerade DVD + Mickey Mote review

Description:Minnie, Mickey, Donald, Goofy and Daisy – takes viewers on an all new adventure as they dress-up in their favorite costumes for Minnie’s Masquerade Ball.  In this episode, Minnie needs some help getting everything ready for her party including making royal crowns for their costumes, searching for Sir Goofalot’s lost shoe, stringing up paper lanterns and much, much more. At the ball, Professor Von Drake hosts the great Clubhouse Costume Show and gives out prize ribbons to all the friends who have dressed up in some funny and fancy costumes.  All it takes is a heaping helping of imagination…and the right Mouseketools.

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tdrs7N6_j1g] 

*****Minnie Mouse is having a Costume ball but of course there are problems along the way like trying to find goofy’s shoe.  The Mickey Mote helps answer the missing question.  My kids really enjoyed watching the movie and being able to answer the questions.  It does seem a little to easy though I wish it was a little more interactive, or have a game within the movie.   The movie was really fun to watch, my kids actually decided to dress up along with Minnie.
