If you have a large family to move and entertain, you’ll no doubt be glad to find out how much they enjoy riding on their very own choo choo train, no matter where they end up going.
It should be noted though that each car has an intended weight limit of 50 pounds. While this might not seem like much, this means that if you have a full train connected, you could have more than 250 pounds to pull around.

This tank top tote is the coolest development I have seen yet! I can’t believe I didn’t come up with the idea!
Seriously, it’s the perfect accessory. It’s fun, easy to care for (you can wash it with your clothes if it get dirty) and it’s inexpensive.
The Tank Top Tote was designed by Jenny Krauss and is available exclusively at Spoon Sisters.

Pet’s Eye View Camera
This Winter seems to be dragging – at least around here. Everyone i this house has serious cabin fever!
The Pet’s Eye View Camera is perfect to kick boredom! Attach the lightweight camera to your cat or dog’s collar and it will snap shots every 1, 5 or 15 minutes from the pet’s perspective inside or out. After a while take off the camera and attach it to a USB port on your camera and you can see what’s going on in your pet’s day. Of course, great photos can’t be guaranteed but it’s definitely something different and fun!
You can find this at Amazon

My niece received the FlyTech FairyFly SlowFlake by WowWee and she loves it. Here is what is included in the package:
- The Fairy Flier
- The Remote Control
- The Stand (the FairyFly controller forms half of the stand)
- The Instruction Book
There are no batteries included. Each remote control needs 4 “AA” batteries. Also, there are no replacement wings included.
At first glance, I thought the Fairy was cute! Her foam body is flesh toned and she wears a light purple dress. She has a slight smile, pointed ears, large eyes, and a pixie haircut. The wings are decorated with swirls of white and blue, and have snowflake graphics on the background.
I thought the fairy flew quite well. You must remember, they are made to fly in a simple manner. They need to controlled well, which is why this toy is for children 6 and up. They are unable to recover their hover when they bump into a wall.
They use InfraRed control technology, which doesn’t work well in bright sunlight. They also are very light, and easily pushed around by the slightest breeze or draft. This toy is best used ina large room indoors.

As a parent, sometimes we just want to show off our kid’s artwork to the world – or at least every family member and friend. My Little Rembrandt has found a way to do just that.
First you need to scan or mail a copy of art done by your child. Once you do that, you get a proof to view, and once approved the cards are shipped the next day.
Other examples of notecards:
- Holiday Greetings
- Thank you card
- Party Invitation
All of course designed by children, making them extra special.

If you’ve been looking for unique home party invitations for your next home party, then Home Party Postcards may have exactly what you are looking for!
I have had a first hand experience of seeing how beautiful these cards really are. The quality of the cards is amazing and the graphics are very cute. The price is even more very affordable for any home party rep looking for home party invitations.
In the sample pack I received there were a few different sample of several different types of parties. This included postcard invites for romance/adult parties, jewelry parties, beauty parties, candle parties, spa parties, and a few others.
Each card is printed on high quality paper with a glossy finish front. The front features a cool graphic with a cute attention grabbing statement. The back of the card features a short paragraph with the description of the type of party, along with an area to enter all the details of the party itself (date, time, hosted by, etc).
Home Party Postcards is definitely worth checking out!

Now before you call to have me taken away, let me explain. When it comes to kids clothes, there are outfits designed with generic characters (i.e. rabbits, turtles, bunnies) on them. Every once in a while, though, outfits with popular characters are available. When I was younger, there were t-shirts that tried to make you look like a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle. The obvious sports teams outfits and wrestling t-shirts also fall into this category of recognizable, iconic, images.
What I think would be neat to see are baby clothes designed to make you look like famous movie characters. Imagine, you walk into a baby clothes store and on the rack is an Indiana Jones outfit sized 18mo, complete with hat and felt bullwhip. A few racks down are the Princess Leia outfits for 24mo. You could really have some fun with this.
Granted, children grow fast, so outfits like this may not get worn many times before the child outgrows it, but capture it on film and you have a story for the scrapbook every time. I now challenge you: what would be some good choices for movie character outfits? What iconic film character’s outfit would you love to see you son, daughter, niece, or nephew wear?
