Build A Bear Workshop has introduced the Friends Count Collection online and in stores.
The Friends Count collection is cute and furry. I remember when I was a kid and the BFF neckalaces were popular for friends, they would break easy though. Now your child and their best friend can have BFF bears that will last them forever as a sign of friendship.
I have a $20 Build A Bear Gift Card to giveaway to one lucky US reader?
To enter: Tell me which bear you would get from the collection or something else.

Disclosure: A gift card was received for my review from Build A Bear Workshop, as well as a giveaway. I am a Build A Bear 15 Friend and all opinions are my own.
This year I am the only one in the family not in school. I have a preschooler, 1st grader, 2nd grader and college student (husband).
my kids actually use technology more than I thought they would need to at their age. My daughter was assigned a biography project and she was on the computer looking up everything and printing it out.
My husband on the other hand uses everything since he is in graduate school. It’s hard to keep up with the demand of everything he needs. Laptops, printers and so much more. I always look at Walmart for everything I need to buy they have great prices. Just the other day I was looking into a HP e-all in one printer. It’s the one piece of technology we really need.You can print from your laptop, smartphone, or tablet from anywhere.
Plus they now have HP XL ink cartridges, which can give you 40% more ink before you have to refill.
I also looked into the their laptops they have a huge variety including the HP Pavillion Dv-6 Notebook, which has all the basic neccessities would need for school. It comes with a webcam and Microsoft Word starter 2010, 2 main essentials for school. 8GB and it reads and writes CDs and DVDs. This would be great to have on hand for the kids school projects.
I did a little video of all the Hp technology at my local Walmart.
To get you geared up for back to school I am giving away a $25 Walmart gift card to a lucky US reader.
To enter: Tell me the one piece of technology you could use for back to school?

My daughter loves to play games, thats all she wants to all day. Between video games and the iPad she will go back and forth between games. Sometimes how much she plays actualy worries me, and I have to cut her off. If It’s a educational game, than I am a little more accepting to the game. Besides learning it has to be a game that gets her thinking hard, not just all fun.
PLaying games might not be all that bad though…
according to USA Today, “todays gamer may be tomorrows surgeon”.
one of the games that I have been accepting to my daughter playing is AmazingWorldGame. Amazing World has play and patterns kids love! kids can chat with friends, care for their Zings and complete missions. You can also customize your home and collect prizes in a controlled environment.
** Zings are lovable and energetic creatures, Zings can be named, customized and put to challenges by hosts.
I really love the bright colors in this game, it makes it more interesting for small children. The Zing’s are so adorable, they kind of look like zoo animals. You can start out by building your house and customizing it the way you like. You can decorate your house, lake by adding bushes and windmills so much more.. My favorite part of the game though would be the mission mode, just traveling through the levels. It is a little hard to do all the controls on the computer, but I am getting use to it.
Playing Amazing World is free, all you have to do is choose the free-to-play option and choose a generic Zing at Amazing World. When you register a plush toy or figure, you can bring your characters to life. You also get exclusive prizes.
Amazing world id so much fun bringing 3D colorful virtual world, by Ganz studios. Players can learn, create and make friends, in a world like never before.
To get you all geared up for the game?
I am giving away a Zing toy to one lucky US reader

Honey Bunches Of Oats, one of Americas favorite cereals just got better. They have added more granola bunches to each box.
4 nutritous grains wheat, oat, grain and rice are added into crispy flakes and granola bunches, making it a nutritous way to star your day.
Each box contains
10 grams of whole grain
6 grams of sugar
heart healthy, o trans fat, saturated fat and cholesterol
My favorite kind would be the cinnamon bunches, it has a great cinnamon crunch to it. Unfortunately no one else in my family can eat it because all the cereals have milk products in them. To me they are still good though.
I have 3 coupons to giveaway to lucky US readers for free boxes of cereal. Exp date on coupon 6/30/13
To enter: tell me what your favorite kind of Honey Bunhes of Oats?

Build A Bear Workshop has introduced the new Sketchers Twinkle Toes bear and Hot Lights Bears this month
Now you can have Bears to match your shoes! New Twinkle Toes and Hot lights Bear are bright, shiny and full of style.
Their ears light up and sparkle.
I personally love the White and light colored bears they just look so fancy. Taking my kids to Build A Bear Workshop to make their own animal is always a thrill. Just to see the look on their faces once their new best friend is dressed and styled to their liking. We chose to make the Twinkle Toes Bear and she is so beautiful and soft. Her ears light up and shine bright and she has big blue eyes.
This is the perfect bear for any little girl, or the Hot Lights Bear for a boy.

Disclosure: A gift card was received for my review from Build A Bear Workshop, as well as a giveaway. I am a Build A Bear 15 Friend and all opinions are my own.
I usually use computer games as a way to relax and calm down at the end of the day, it just seems relaxing for me. It has to be a simp game though, not something that is competitive or confusing.
Tail Town Friends is the fun new game similar to Farmville. Tail Towns Friends is the free to play Facebook game, about a mouse with big dreams about having his own farm/orchard. Friends and players can help each other out with energy and sharing to make your country dreams come true.
I jus started playing this game today and it was very easy and fun. First you have a series of goals to accomplish, like clearing out an orchard to earn enough acorns to buy it. Once you own it you can buy crops, decorations, houses and so much more to save Greenwood from the big business taking all the fruit away. You do run out of energy fast, but can purchase more with Facebook credits or ask your friends to share theirs. The photo-realistic graphics and beauty of the game are what makes it so much fun, not to mention the drama and juicy soap opera like story lines.
I am only on level two but am already starting to become a little addicted to this game, once you start it’s hard to stop. I want to reach all th goals and collect the figurines. The figurines you buy and they come with a secret code that can unlock the figure on Facebook.
Once the figurine unlocks, you can complete their stories and unlock decorations and more. There are 12 figurines total, but they will be releasing later this year. The figurines are custom-designed polystone figurines, that are hand painted and have beautiful detail.
This is actually one of the Facebook games I would let my kids play and have fun with. It is simple for a kid and something they would enjoy.
To get you interested in playing the game, I am giving away one of the Figurines. The Ballerina figurine is so beautiful, whose tune will she dance too? She is the first set of figurines to be released. To see what other figurines will be released you can visit here.
To enter the contest, You must DESCRIBE your ‘dream garden’ or ‘country getaway’ in a tweet using the HASHTAG #TailTowns. Then come here and leave the link telling me you did.
that simple. (this is mandatory)

My life can get pretty crazy and hectic, after all I have 3 kids ll under the age of 8. I have help from my husband but that is only around bedtime, so it’s pretty much all me. At times I have to go hide in my happy place, just to breath and relax.
I found my happy place to be either outside or just hiding in the bathroom, there are not many places to go without my kids following me.
Now finding happy place in my head to escape to, that is a different story and a much better place. I would escape to……….
The Highlands of Scotland! My family is from Scotland and I would love to go one day.
