NogginStik is the rattle that you wish you had as newborn

A rattle is a rattle.  We received lots of them for each child when they were born.  They were silver or multicolored plastic, made a rattling sound and did everything a rattle should do.  But what if a rattle could do more than just make a shaking noise when a baby moves it?  A NogginStik is just that, it’s bumpy on the stick part, has multicolored lights and a mirror on the bottom of it.

Dr. Seuss Fun Machine lives up to its name

Dr. Seuss provides fond memories for everyone.  While the characters that provided that memory may change or be different for certain people, the memory is always pleasant.  Dr. Seuss Fun Machine combines physical play of old school games with the interactive experience of tablet games.  The app is free to download and doesn’t necessarily need the game tiles to be played, but is much more enjoyable if you have a combination of the two.

Mattel’s Clawdeen Wolf doll causes concern for parents

Toddler Mojo learned that he can close his eyes without going to sleep.  He’s started squinting, then laughing, squinting his eyes, closing them and then falling on the floor laughing with his eyes closed.  Some news stories make us want to close our eyes and this is one of them.

Clawdeen Wolf is a new entry in Mattel’s hugely popular Monster High doll line.  Clawdeen Wolf looks like a stripper, granted that’s not too different from the Bratz dolls. Continue reading Mattel’s Clawdeen Wolf doll causes concern for parents
