All I have been seeing in commercials and ads is the Wubble ball, but I was skeptical as it looks more like a bubble that will easily pop.
The Glo Wubble Bubble ball looks like a bubble, plays like a ball. Inflates up to 3 feet. Starts out small and 2 minutes later, it’s 3 feet tall. Made from super-thermo-stretch-tacular stuff. Catch it, kick it, squeeze it and make it fly.
** My kids absolutely love this ball. As I had mentioned above I was really skeptical about this ball and it’s not as sturdy as I thought, but it has lasted. I had some trouble when we first went to blow it up with the pump provided in the box. I couldn’t get the pump to go through and had to puncture it just a bit.
The Glo Wubble was able to blow up and stayed a good size but because I punctured it had a slow leak and hours later was almost fully deflated. WE just reflated it and taped the hole. The Glo Wubble can be reused many times and my kids inflate it daily and go outside to play catch.
The ball does glow in the dark after you hole it up to the light for a while. Ours didn’t seem to glow to much but the kids still found it fascinating.
I also noticed the ball seemed a bit sticky and would stick to the ground a bit which made it get dirty very fast.
We have had this ball for a few weeks and my kids have played with it everyday inside and out.

If your kids are anything like mine they are Shopkins obsessed. My kids absolutely love them, and want all the figures.
Shopkins released their 3rd season in July/August and are now getting ready to release season 4. Shopkins Season 4 should be released sometime around Christmas or early January, but knowing it’s the holiday season I am thinking early December.
I was able to get a little sneak peak on season 4 and they will be so cute. Some of the categories will be……..
Fruit/Veggies-Cherries, Mushrooms, Lettuce and more
Bakery- bagels, bon bons and more
accessories featuring belts, handbags and more
Homewares- They have a TOILET!
Garden- Plants and trees
Sweet Treats- ice cream, pancakes, jelly and more
Partytime- hats, balloons, plates,
Petshop- These are pet accessories like balls, collars, cat food etc. (these will all be Ultra rare)
Petkins- pets but some are like a cup or house with a pet face and ears. This section is bigger than usual and these are all special editions.
Limited Editions- all perfume like shopkins
Another thing I am told is that the baskets are more like crates for your pets. There are no handles, but maybe different in full packs.
Who is excited and ready for Shopkins Season 4? We are ready and waiting and will be hopefully bringing you lots of opening videos.
Jurassic World is finally in theaters, the wait is over. We can’t wait until we see it this weekend. It’s going to be the ultimate rush movie. Leaving you on the edge of your seat.
So after you and your family see Jurassic World everyone is going to want to reenact the scenes from the movie. So why not do so with a Jurassic World Lego set.
This lego set is so much fun, although it took my 2 hours to put together. My son loves it. It comes with 2 raptors, 3 lego figurines and enough legos to build a dinosaur medic van and motorcycle. My son has not stopped playing with it. He loves how interactive it is. The van doors open in the back as well as the driver an passenger side. It has a small weapon on top that really shoots little arrows, and the raptors can open their mouths and move their arms and legs. (with the child’s help of course.)

Jurrasic World will be hitting theaters on June 12, I have one dinosaur fan who just can’t wait. While we are waiting, I decided to take him to the store to see all the new dinosaur toys that were coming out. He got so excited as there are so many new ones coming out, but it seems most of the toys are focused around Velociraptors.
We were so excited to find to that one of Hasbro’s new Jurassic World toys was going to be sent to us along with some books from the movie.
Hasbro’s Velociraptor figure:
Clever as ever, the Jurassic World raptors are masterful hunters on the lookout for prey. The assortment features three of the most popular raptors from the Jurassic World movie, Charlie, Delta, and Echo. The figures each span approximately 12 inches long with articulated arms, legs, and tails. You can find these at Hasbro Toy Shop
Jurassic World Where Dinosaurs Come to Life:
This book is perfect for any Jurassic Park and Dinosaur fan. The pictures are in big bold colors and really bring them to life. It also includes never before seen dinosaurs from the movie. Bring the dinosaurs to life and interact with them on the free downloadable app. You can find this book on Amazon.
Jurassic World Dinosaur Field Guide:
Written by two noted paleontologists and illustrated in big bold colors, the Jurassic World Dinosaur Field Guide is a kid-friendly nonfiction guide that uses simple text to describe over 100 dinosaurs. Kids will learn tons of awesome facts about the most well-known dinosaurs and some of the newest discoveries. Along with a pull out poster featuring all the dinosaurs. You can find this book on Amazon.

Season 3 Shopkins are finally here, well trickling out very slowly. I saw that they were available online at Toys R Us and quickly put in a order. They sold out within 1 hour.
We have been waiting for season 3 after finishing up our collection. We have one of each character not color, excluding Limited Editions.
Season 3 Shopkins are so cute. The categories include: Fruit and Veggies, International Foods, Homewares, Stationaries, Hats, Shoes, Sweet Treats and Bakery. Of course there are limited editions also, they are jewels.
They are so cute: Although some of the Shopkins seem a bit smaller than season 1 and 2. But I love that they are including more male related Shopkins this time around. Colors are more solid and more Shopkins featuring male names, like Aspara-Gus, Ginger-Fred, Casper Cap and a few more.
Our favorites are:
Kenzie loves Nettie Spaghetti
William Loves Ginger-Fred
Alex loves Fiona Fries
Brandy loves Sconnie
Reveal 2
Reveal 3
Who is excited? I’am but to be honest I am not about the hunt. Every time my local stores get them one person wipes them out.
You will be able to find these in stores very soon or keep checking online for updates and in stock orders.
