MGA Entertainment Toys Review

I recently received some toys from MGA Entertainment to review!  My kids are always excited when they are really the ones that get to review the item!  I cannot really complain either because if the kids are occupied and having fun then mommy can get more done!

First, their was the Little Tikes Discovery Alarm Clock!  My daughter just loved this clock.  It makes fun sounds and if you move the clock hands it will say the number.  My daughter is two and having so much fun learning to count that she just loved this function of it.  (Plus, it is nice because she will count with the clock rather than making me walk up the stairs to count them and then down the stairs to count them, over and over and over......)  When you push the buttons on top of the clock it makes fun sounds and they light up!  It is also pretty cool that you can set the clock to speak in English, Spanish, or French!  To be able to buy this for right around $10.00 is a steal since I think this toy would be great for any age from infant up to probably 5 or 6.  My 9 year old even played with it for a minute (but he would never admit to it with his friends around!)

We also received a Mini Lalaloopsy to review.  My daughter had a lot of fun with this.  They are little girl dolls but she was convinced it was her baby since it was only about 4 inches tall.  She also loved that it came with a little pet!  It also had a cute snowman, stick with roasted marshmallows on it and a cup.  We got the Mittens Fluff 'N' Stuff one and it was great at keeping my little one busy and occupied.  I did have to keep an eye on her with this one a little more just because of the smaller pieces.  I am pretty sure she's past the point of shoving stuff in her mouth but not positive so I would usually just have her play with it around me or play with her and her Mini Lalaloopsy!  I also thought it was pretty clever that the package it comes in is reusable and sets up as a little house to use for the toy!  The fact that you can get these for around $5.00 was pretty exciting too, I am definitely going to have to get her some other ones so she can have little friends for hers (Plus it will make it easier for me to join in the play time!)

The Bratz Rock Doll we received was quite a hit as well.  Although I think the accessories were just as fun!   My daughter LOVED that their hair glows in the dark.  This was probably her favorite thing about the Bratz Rock Doll.  I loved how cute they are, honestly I was looking at their eye make-up wondering why I can never make mine look that good and thinking maybe I could copy one of theirs, didn't work as planned though!!  Although my daughter enjoys this toy and it has been fun to have I think she will only like it more in the future.  She is still pretty young for this toy but I would imagine within the next couple years this will probably be one of her favorites!  I know how much I loved barbies, and I know Bratz are the new thing!  My niece wanted Bratz everything a couple years ago, she would always tell me how "fashionable" they were!  She's a teenager now and grown out of them I think so I would say these are probably best for ages 4 - 12 although all kids are different maybe your older child or younger one would like one as well!

The Dirty Truth is the MGA Entertainment Toys Rock!  They gave me some much needed time of peace and sanity keeping my daughter busy.  I also had fun playing with the toys with her and the clock is helping her learn not to skip the number 4 when counting to 10!  These toys are a lot of fun and so reasonably priced that I highly recommend them!

If you want to find out more about any of these toys or purchase them just head to the links in the review and you can read more about them or find where to buy them!

Aerobie Sprint Flying Ring - Review & Giveaway (U.S. or Canada)

Anything that can keep my son occupied and having fun for more than a couple minutes is great!  I was excited to see if the Aerobie Sprint Flying Ring could do just that!

Here is some information about the Aerobie Sprint Flying Ring from their website:

"The Aerobie Sprint flying ring, a compact version of the world's farthest thrown object, flies twice as far a regular disc for awesome games of catch.

Compact and lightweight, the Aerobie Sprint ring flies twice as far as conventional flying discs for awesome games of catch. Its smaller size is its only distinction from the otherwise identical Aerobie Pro flying ring, which holds the Guinness World Record for the longest throw. Ideal for those who enjoy the incredible flying performance of Aerobie rings but have a smaller area for play, the Sprint ring is great for backyards, parks, playgrounds, beaches, and camping trips. The ring's soft rubber edge makes it comfortable to catch and fun for throwers of all skill levels. Size: 10 inch diameter. Available in orange, magenta, and yellow. Ages 7 and up. Quality made in the U.S.A.

Also try the Aerobie Pro flying ring, a larger model of the Sprint ring which holds the Guinness World Record for the farthest throw."

I knew just telling him that they made the ring which holds the World Record for the farthest throw would get his attention quickly.  He is not that into frisbee, but really can you blame him?  It can be pretty difficult to get a frisbee to go as far as you want and exactly where you want.  Well, that is not a problem with the Aerobie Sprint Ring!

The Dirty Truth on the Aerobie Sprint Ring is it provides hours of fun!  Not only did it keep my son occupied and happy but I had quite a bit of fun with it as well!  Our dog even enjoyed fetching it!  This ring flies EXACTLY where you throw it and can go quite a ways.  When I play catch with my son he doesn't always get the ball right to my mitt but with the Aerobie Spring Ring he had no problem throwing it right to me!  This is a great and fun item and will help get your kids out of the house and having fun!  

ANOTHER HUGE PLUS FOR THE AEROBIE SPRINT FLYING RING???  IT IS MADE RIGHT HERE  IN THE U.S.A.

TO BUY:     Go to www.Aerobie.com

Zuvo Water Filtration System Review

I recently received the Zuvo Water Filtration System to review!  Let me tell you this was a more than welcome review.  The city we live in uses well water and I won't even drink it.  I drink bottled water most of the time not only due to me being concerned about what is in the water but it just tastes horrible!

Here are some facts about the Zuvo that I got straight from my contact at the company (this information is copied from the information she gave me.)

"Zuvo Water (www.zuvowater.com) is introducing its new Zuvo 150 Water Filtration System. Priced at less than $150 — a fraction of other automated water filtration systems — this is the low-cost high-volume easy to install home water filtration system that everyone has been waiting for! It's elegantly designed, high tech and easy to use.

Tap water safety is a number one concern for our health and fitness. This year, the President’s Anti-Cancer Panel specifically recommended home water filtration for tap water.  The Zuvo Water Filtration System makes tap water safer and more delicious for the whole family to drink… and, unlike pitcher water systems, offers UNLIMITED fresh water! 

Now the entire family can enjoy all the clean fresh water they want all year round. 

 What It Does

 Zuvo’s UV/Ozone filtration system reproduces nature’s photo-oxidation cleansing process, filtering impurities and reduces microorganisms, while preserving your water’s natural and healthy mineral content and adding fresh oxygen, giving it a delicious “pop”.  It’s this “something extra” that makes users choose Zuvo over ordinary tap or bottled water every time! 

About Zuvo 150 Water Filtration System

Easily installed above counter to a standard (threaded) faucet or under-counter connected directly to a Zuvo Beverage Faucet


Uses 8w UV bulb; requires less energy than a toaster
½ gallon-per-minute flow rate
Filter life of 400 gallons
Retails at $149.99

Zuvo is telegenic and visually fascinating to watch; once it's plugged in, you see the water bubbling in a blue UV light and getting cleaner before your very eyes. 

Why Zuvo?  More Fun Facts

Better for your Health
Unlimited clean water… a godsend for people who live in “bad water areas” or are forced to drink well water.  And see what Mother Nature Network says about us!

Better for your Wallet
Because Zuvo produces unlimited clean water, you get healthy water for only $.06/gallon versus $.20/gallon for pitcher water and over $1.00/gallon for bottled water.

Better for the Planet
With Zuvo, you can make a difference by not adding to the more than 60 million plastic water bottles that end up in our landfills every year."

Zuvo vs. Bottled Water

Zuvo vs. Filter Pitchers

The Dirty Truth on Zuvo is that it is worth the money (see the comparison pictures above)!  My water is clear, tasty, and clean!  It is so nice to be able to drink my tap water again, and the savings from not buying bottled water would pay for the Zuvo easily.  It is pretty fun to watch it in action as well (yes, I am that easily entertained).   It was so easy to install that I didn't even need to make my husband do it, it was up and running in minutes!  For any of you concerned about how clean your drinking water is or if you just want better tasting water I would definitely recommend the Zuvo!

You can buy the Zuvo Water Filtration System on Amazon
 
Disclosure:  I was not paid for this review.  I received the above item free for my review but all opinions in this review are honest and are my opinions.  The facts on Zuvo (italic) above are all copied information from the information my contact at Zuvo gave me.

Utah Blitz Game

Did any of you go to the Utah Blitz game?  It was awesome!  They did amazing!  The final score was 40 to 0 with the Utah Blitz winning!  Looks like it is going to be an awesome year for the Blitz.  There were quite a few injuries during the game and one of the Blitz players was taken out of the game so hopefully everyone who got hurt is okay and has a quick recovery!
There was a group of probably about 50 of us (family/friends) that went to watch the game and we all had a blast - I cannot wait until the next Blitz game!  My sister is actually one of the Blitz team captains so it was awesome to go and finally see her play.  If you weren't able to make it out don't worry!  Their next home game is April 9th at 7pm @ Judge Memorial (650 South 1100 East - Salt Lake City, UT) so put it on your calendar now & head out for a great time!

You would think that now that I am nearing age 30 my skin would be clear and look better (besides signs of aging!)  Well wrong!  I though blemishes or other imperfections were a teenage thing and as I got older I would no longer have them......  well either that is just a false rumor or I am unlucky because I still don't have the skin I want!

I recently have improved my complexion though!  How you ask?  I have been using the NutraSonic for the last few weeks and I honestly can tell a difference!  Here is some information about NutraSonic (and pictures) from their site www.nutraluxemdonline.com on the Nutra Sonic product page:

Sound to good to be true?  Well the truth is - it's NOT!  I mean look at the study results, those speak for themselves?  Really NONE reported an adverse reactions and ALL reported improved skin appearance!  I have been using this for a few weeks now so I could really have a good feel for the product before I posted a review and wasn't sure of the results!  My skin does look better.  I still have blemishes - it didn't give me perfect or flawless skin but it looks much better and my skin is getting clearer.  I am hoping I can continue using this and by summer I will feel okay going in public with no makeup :)  I really love my new Nutra Sonic.  One of the greatest things is that it motivates me to keep up on cleaning my face.  I know it sounds silly but it is funner to clean your face - you see more results and so you WANT to do it.  Even when it's so late, your tired, and just want to go to bed you know in one minutes you can have your face clean and looking good so you better just take the 60 seconds and get it done!  I would highly recommend this product to any of you and they are currently having a sale (it is 20% off) so grab one soon!
