Children adore face paint!

I don’t think that we have ever gone to a fair, Disneyland or a Farmer’s Market without the girls begging to have their faces painted.

Why? I am not sure…there is something magical about having their faces painted and being transformed into another character or person.

They were excited and jazzed when we received our sample “Fan Stamp” kit. With regular play tattoos you always need water or at the very least a moist cloth to apply remembering to keep your hand steady because if you don’t they will definitely smear. That’s just no fun!

But with the Fan Stamp designs you don’t need any water!! Just press and go! So easy the twins could do it for themselves. Easy to use, Easy to remove and lots of fun! !

Thanks to Goliath Games we found two great new games to enjoy!!

We were sent the Domino Express and the Trapdoor Checkers to review.

The Domino Express is a fun twist on the old favorite of stacking dominoes.  The Domino Express comes with a fun Domino ladder, 60 pieces and a bridge. The IE Twins tore into this as soon as they received it. They spent a very, very long time setting it up and then knocking them down. The starter kit is only $9.99 and you can add to it with the Domino Racing and Domino Classic set.

Our favorite of the two was the Trapdoor Checkers. Hands down it was our #1 choice. Trapdoor Checkers has proven to me that I  stink at Checkers! Skylar beat me fair and square! The sad part…I was really trying. “SHE” doesn’t know she beat me legitimately she thinks I let her win…so don’t tell her, okay?

Trapdoor Checkers has literal trapdoors that can be manipulated by either player when it is their turn. You spin a spinner and it will give you one of three directions: 1) Make a regular checker move, 2) Open or close an orange trapdoor and 3) open or close a green trap door. Your opponent can get your piece by a traditional checker move or by a trapdoor.

Trapdoor Checkers and Domino Express are a lot of fun … Goliath Games has an entire assortment and selection of games that are perfect for family game nights.

DOMINO EXPRESS:

Remember how much fun it is to stack up a bunch of dominoes and call everyone over to watch them fall? This starter pack has everything you need to set up your falling domino system. Domino Express is the version of the Domino Rally system you may remember. Includes 60 dominos, 1 domino bridge and one slalom ball drop to make and endless combination of domino stunts. Domino Express is the next generation of the Domino Rally system you may remember.

TRAPDOOR CHECKERS:

Checkers has been transformed into a game of cunning and luck where kids can beat their parents. On each turn players spin to see if they either move, or open and close trap doors. If your checker is on one of the trap doors – look out it might fall through. Internationally acclaimed, this great game will be a favorite in your game library for years to come.

O’Yikes knows that being a mom doesn’t mean you  no longer have style. They also realize that in today’s society dad’s play at lot bigger role then when we may have been growing up (depending on your age).

They were kind enough to send us the O’Yikes Slingback backpack in Frosted Titanium.
Which is perfect for my husband.  I realize that we don’t have babies anymore and are no longer lugging around diapers, bottles and pacifiers but believe me when I say that we still lug around enough.

Now that the girls are in 2nd grade it seems that I have more in my purse that belongs to them then what belongs to me. Juice boxes, books, wallets, dolls….it is all in my purse! With the weather changing you can soon add sweaters and mittens to the mix of items that will fall into my purse.

O’Yikes designs products for active people on the go…if you have children you definitely fall into this category.

When we received the O’Yikes Slingback backpack my husband took one look at it’s more universal structure (in  other words there weren’t any rainbows, flowers or unicorns and it wasn’t pink) and decided that this would be a backpack that would work for him. I havent’ seen it since.

It is great to know that I can fill it with all the necessary items that he’ll need when they go on their Father/Daughter adventures. It brings a confidence knowing he’ll be prepared for whatever situation arrives…well, except when they have to go potty…that one still gives him trouble, lol.

If youa re not the “Traidiontal” mom or consider yourself to have an active lifestyle (and like I said what mom doesn’t) then take a look at the versatile, functional and stylish designs from O’yikes.

Your husband will be glad you did!

The versatile Slingback X is the perfect multi-use bag. It is ideal for those who need multiple bags to fit each occasion. The Slingback X is literally two bags in one, a backpack and a shoulder bag.

The Slingback X is the ideal convertible laptop backpack bag. It can be worn as a single strap laptop backpack bag or as a nylon shoulder bag with the detachable seat belt type strap. This nylon shoulder bag backpack is designed to fit up to 15.4” notebook.

As a single strap laptop backpack bag, the wide padded strap rest on your shoulder and across your chest so the laptop backpack bag can sit comfortably on your back. The laptop backpack bag allows you to be hands free to ride bikes, take the subway, or just walk across town. The laptop backpack bag has a padded compartment to protect your 15.4” notebook.

The laptop backpack bag can easily convert into a nylon shoulder bag with two quick steps. To transform the laptop backpack bag into the nylon shoulder bag, you first,  conveniently tuck in the backpack’s wide single strap into the back pocket, thenen attach the nylon seat belt type strap to the two brushed aluminum rings on the sides of the laptop backpack bag.

The nylon shoulder bag can be worn over your shoulder or across your chest, whichever is convenient.
