Ahoy There! Card Game from Pop Up Pirate

[Ad- gifted product] We have a large card game and board game collection at our home, mainly because Dann and I have always played board games! Often, these types of games only really the two oldest children or the youngest child, but rarely is there a game simple enough to keep Robin’s attention but engaging enough to keep Amelia and Kai playing with her!

MEL Science – Lenses | Review

[Ad- gifted product] We’re starting to get to those Winter days where it looks nice and sunny outside, but the temperature is still bitingly cold.

Reversible Cats vs Pickles – provide both a cat and a pickle

[Ad- gifted products] Ever since we were first introduced to Cats vs Pickles, our household has loved finding these creatures out and about. Amelia is the biggest collector of the series, who has tons of the tiny plushies, the large plushies, a few of the figures, and often watches some of the Youtube videos associated with the cute and funny characters. If you are new to Cats vs Pickles, it is based on the concept that cats are afraid of pickles (or well, cucumbers), and so these characters include a bunch of quirky cats AND pickles!
