“You can take a horse to water …”

Today’s parents could rewrite this old saying as “You can take a kid to the sink, but you can’t make him brush.”

At least that’s the case in my household! My 5- and 2-year-old make it a habit of shoving the toothbrush in their mouths, taking it out, then rinsing and spitting. Not quite the regimen prescribed by every dentist I know!

But the Hasbro Tooth Tunes toothbrush has changed all that. With age-appropriate songs for your child from 2 to 12, the Tooth Tunes toothbrush plays songs for 2 minutes while your child brushes away. Once the child removes the brush from his/her mouth, the music becomes too quiet to hear. But in the mouth it’s quite the rock concert! My 5-year-old says, “this toothbrush makes my teeth ROCK!”  read more »

I wrote about the NERF Elimination game the other day, and was curious as to what technology has done for the NERF Football. So, I went to my local toy store and bought the only NERF Football they had on the shelf — the nighttime NERF Football with a light inside. My five year-old believes it to be the coolest of all footballs. Well … he is in for a surprise as Hasbro Inc. is stepping it up this year with the NERF brand.

The NERF PEYTON MANNING ROCKET PASS (MSRP $14.99) football which literally lights up the end zone should be a big hit. This NERF is in addition to the NERF PEYTON MANNING VORTEX MEGA HOWLER (MSRP $9.99). Guess which one will go farther than the other? I bet Peyton could throw both end-zone to end-zone.  read more »

The day the NERF Elimination Game arrived it was a day like any other day at the office. It did not end the same as any other day. The office was was filled with laughter, and honestly not much work got done on this day. We had grown adults that were sneaking through the office to ambush their co-workers — that was an absolute joyous bonding experience.

This game was more fun than I originally thought when I first opened the box. It all started when I loaded the first NERF Elimination blaster (or sonic whistle dart, as it actually whistles when it's launched towards its target) into the NERF Eliminator. The Eliminator fit snugly into my hands, and I knew immediately what had to be done — eliminate my co-workers!  read more »
