Ask Einstein

A ton of us are doing home schooling right now and Dr. Stem Toys Ask Einstein is the perfect fun learning tool to have at home.  They have a few different sets to choose from and my son thinks they are a blast. Place an electronic Einstein the mouse over the chosen answer and see if his enormous brain-scanning helmet lights up green for correct. Bonus sounds emit in celebration of the correct response. If a child chooses unwisely, Einstein’s helmet flashes a red incorrect and sounds a buzzer. Suddenly facts and figures become an entertaining game. Kids can quiz themselves or have mom or dad assist emerging readers.

Dragon Ball Super

 

We love collection action figures and the new collection from Bandai are amazing.  The Dragon Ball Supers are quality figures you can play with them or collect them and they would be the perfect add to any collection.  We got the COOLER Final Form and the SUPER SAIYAN GOKU (only at game stop) I love that he comes with an extra set of hand to make play time even more fun.

 

Tomagotchi

OMG, I Loved my Tamagotchi.  I had mine for months and it even went on my summer graduation trip with me.  These are the generation 2 you get your pet and once again be ready to take care of it, or you will lose it.  You have to feed them bring them to the bathroom and more.  I love that your little one will be learning while they play.   As most of us know taking care of a Tamagotchi is not easy and your kids will soon learn how much love and care go into it.

Trolls World Tour Legos are here and they are adorable.  If you have a little one like mine that loves Trolls and Legos then the Lego sets are going to be a huge hit this year.  As we all know Lego sets sell out fast so make sure to pick them up as soon as you see them.  Lego is also having a Black Friday Sale so don’t miss out on the extra free bees.  This set is from DreamWorks and is so cute.  The Pop Village Celebration set comes with 380 pieces including some of your favorite trolls. I LOVE Tiny Diamond.

Each Zombie in the line comes from their own unique country with its own zombie twist. These are not your ordinary zombies… they are fun, have their own personalities but all of them love to compete in all sorts of sporting events. Collect them all!

Snap Ships

We had so much fun playing with the Snap Ships from Play Monster at Holiday of Play this year.  I got to watch a ton of influencers compete to make the best the fastest.  There are a few different ships to choose from and you can easily follow the directions to make the ship or you can make what your imagination can think of.  All the ships can work together.  The Snap Ships set for Lance includes instruction for two different builds that you assemble yourself and then engage in battle with real shooting weapon play! Lance SV-51 Scout is known to be fast and agile, and in the hands of a capable pilot such as Atam, the Forge’s alien tech guru, it is almost untouchable. Add the mysterious UJU tech piece that’s included, and you’re sure to defeat the Komplex.

 

Pass Back

Now I was trying to figure out if this should be a gift for men or for kids, it really does fit both guides.  I decided to do for kids because of the way the world is right now a lot of our kids need to get some energy our, but they can not play with their friends.  The Pass Back is perfect I know my foot ball loving nephew would go nuts for it. They also have 3 different sizes so you can make sure to get the right for your kids age or even your husband. Unique design allows the ball to return to user when thrown against hard surface.  Increase passing/catching with unlimited reps in a shorter time. Feels just like a regular football allowing user to be ready for game time.
