As if we need another excuse to go to Center for Puppetry Arts in Atlanta, my oldest son and I went to see the Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. It is so much fun to do mother-son dates now that he is 4 and can sit through short presentations.

Having two children means entering the world of block based building toys. On the positive side they encourage analytical thinking, dexterity and creativity. On the negative side they feel like sand spurs when you step on them and you’ll rue the day that you lost that 1 tiny piece. Regardless we jump in with both feet, eagerly dig the Transformers Construct-Bots and are giving away a pair of them!

We played with the Octonauts Octopod Playset, more specifically, our children played with it. They loved it and it provided hours of creative free play with Barnacles, Kwazii and various sea creatures whom they rescued. Eventually the farm animals made their way to the Octopod and it was all manner of imaginative play. Thanks to our friends in the PR world we’re having a giveaway for a copy of the Octonauts Octopod Playset.

This year, Radio Shack can help out with serious savings online, in person or online for #BlackFriday and #CyberMonday.

Prior to receiving the Octonauts Octopod Playset to review we hadn’t seen the show. I was aware of it, but hadn’t seen an episode of it. Since our oldest has been playing with the Octonauts Octopod Playset he’s been sounding the Octo Alert, rescuing various sea critters and wondering why this show isn’t available on Roku. Parents who are down with the Octonauts know what I’m speaking about the others will discover it when their child is about 3 or 4.
