"Baseball Guys" Mini Pack Giveaway! CLOSED


My son and I have been fans of Kaskey Kids "Baseball Guys" ever since we had the opportunity to review our own set last year. These sport action figures can entertain your child for hours, especially if they are a sports fan. Kaskey Kids sport action figures gave my husband and son opportunity to spend time together. My husband loved teaching my son the terms and rules of baseball while playing with the sport action figures. I liked the fact that these action figures didn't cause my son to think or play violently.

Kaskey Kids is back to kick off this years Baseball season with their "Baseball Guys" Mini Packs. These Mini Packs not only gives your child the ability to take them where ever they go, but saves the parents from wondering how to keep their child entertained the next time they are in a doctors office waiting room. Here are some other cool things you can do with your Baseball Mini Pack.

-Bring on vacations, to restaurants, in the car, on a plane, etc, to entertain the little ones.
-Bring to an older sibling's baseball game for a child to play with in the stands.
-Buy an extra team to go with the full set of Baseball Guys.
-Makes a great party favor for a sports theme party favor, cake decoration, etc.

Kaskey Kids also recently launched their new Kids Corner on their site. This is a fun place for you and your child to visit. Here you will find a fun dice game to play with your sport figurines, interactive sport games online, pictures of Kaskey Kids fans and more...

The Day the Flowers Died (Historical Romance Novel) by Ami Blackwelder


Author, Ami Blackwelder, brings to you a historical romance novel, The Day the Flowers Died. It is a 1930 Munich, Germany piece about two unlikely people who fall in love despite the prejudice.

Five Star Review:
Jeff Andrews, Executive Vice President of IPC Technologies, Inc. said,
"The Day the Flowers Died is a Wonderful Holistic Love story.

This book is a rare historical romance told with flare and passion.
When I first received it I thought that it was going to be a dark
and introspective sort of history of two people…but it is so much more.

This book, which is fiction relates what it would have been like for two people, with totally opposing cultures, who fell in love at the beginning of one of the darkest periods in history, pre-war Germany.

Ami has enormous talent and she delivers a love story that is not only profound, but engaging.

I couldn’t put the book down and I am a very busy person with almost no time to read…I almost wished I had gotten the audio version.

This is a must read for those that want to escape to another time…it will change something deep inside of you in a very positive way."


Buy It:
You can purchase "The Day the Flowers Died" and other books written by Ami Blackwelder at her site amiblackwelder.com. Her books can be purchased on paperback or as an ebook.

I also have my own copy of this book and I cannot wait to read it. I am a little behind on my reading since I have been doing more book reviews. I love reading. As you can see from the review below, I will need to make sure I have plenty of time to read it knowing I may not be able it put it down once it is opened ;0)

Mr. Linky Friday!!!

Time to see if it is your lucky week. Enter some of these great giveaways to see. Catch the Drift has two fantastic giveaways going on so be sure to check those out as well.

Stella Is A Star! by Bernadette Peters (Review)


Synopsis
Bernadette Peters and Liz Murphy the terrific team behind the New York Times best-selling Broadway Barks are back with a story about Stella, a pup who would rather be a graceful pig ballerina than what she really is: a dog no one seems to like.
Stella learns the lessons of self-acceptance, following her heart's desires and, most important, that it's okay just to be herself.

Author
Many of you know Bernadette Peters from her stage career on Broadway and in theaters and concert halls around the world. She is cofounder, with Mary Tyler Moore, of Broadway Barks, an annual star-studded animal adoption event benefiting animal shelters throughout the New York City area. Her passion for animals and her work on behalf of the organization are the inspiration behind this book.

Review:
This book is a MUST HAVE! My daughter who loves animals and ballet, loves it. I highly recommend this book because of the great lesson it teaches.
When my children and I first opened this book, we used the CD which was included. Bernadette Peters did an amazing job telling the story. I think both my children prefer listening to her telling the story over me. The CD also includes the song at the end of the book. This gives your children the opportunity to sing along.
"Stella is a Star" really does teach your child self-acceptance and to follow one's dreams. It teaches your child that if they are motivated and positive, they can accomplish anything. The story is written perfectly so that your child can understand its purpose. My son immediately started asking questions regarding Stella and why she wanted to be a pig rather than a dog. It gave me the great opportunity as a mother to teach some of these important life lessons.

Buy It:
You can purchase your own hardcover copy with the cd included at Amazon or Barnes & Noble.

This book was donated for the purpose of a review. Even though I was given the book, my review is my very own honest opinion.

Review:
My daughter and I are huge fans of Piggy Paint. I knew we wouldn't be disappointed with this new product line in Piggy Paint. We received a neon yellow polish called "Solar Power" as well as "Radioactive", glow-in-the dark polish. What makes "Radioactive" extra special is the you can layer it over another color of polish. This way you can have not only fun bright nails, but nails that will also glow in the dark. To make the polish's more vibrant you will have to apply 2-3 coats.
