Have you seen the new Rubik’s Revolution toy? It features 6 addictive, fast-paced electronic games in one. This is not the Rubik’s Cube I grew up with. When I took it out of the package, I was expecting to be able to twist it around like you did with the old ones, but this is actually a completely different toy. The light games get progressively more difficult, and there are multi-player settings as well. The package says it’s for ages 5 and up, but my almost 3 year old really enjoys playing with it, and he can play the simplest game- it’s great for developing coordination.

Ready to get one for free? I have 6 of these to give away - one of which is the micro version that’s on a key chain. Just leave a comment below before May 10, midnight (US Eastern Time)!

(I’m sorry, but I’m only able to ship these to US addresses. Be sure to leave a valid e-mail address so I can contact you!)

This is a really cool freebie for the kids who love Legos. You can get a FREE 2 year subscription to LEGO magazine! Besides being a fun read, I’m sure the kids will love getting mail addressed to them for a change, instead of Mom and Dad! :) Thanks to Play Library for the tip!
And… Printables4Kids just posted about some neato Lego Duplo coloring sheets.

Toy Review Site

February 27, 2007 | Leave a Comment

If you’ve ever wanted to know more about the toys you’re considering buying, or just wanted to browse around a site that had lots of detailed descriptions to see what you might like to buy? Consider visiting The Toy Review. The site has reviews of tons of items, which you can browse by age group or type of toy. They’re constantly updating the reviews, so it’s a good site to bookmark for a return visit!

It would be tough to be frequently stared at because of a skin imperfection, especially for a kid.  If your child is dealing with this, you can get a free book to help them deal with it and foster self-esteem.

I had never been in the hospital in my adult life until I had my son at age 36.  I had a C-section, so my stay was a bit longer than planned, and I learned while I was there that nurses are some of the most special people on the planet. You can get free stuff from the Discover Nursing website, like a coloring book and book covers. Lots of kids dream of being a nurse when they grow up- maybe this freebie will encourage them!

Free Gerber Stuff

January 13, 2007 | 2 Comments

We generally aren’t into signing up for things which will add to the pile of mail we get every day, but I’m glad I signed up for the Growing Up Gerber club.  We have appreciated the many coupons and free samples we’ve gotten along the way- the coupons come in a little booklet that has some parenting and feeding tips, They even sent us a free bib after we signed up (I don’t know if they’re still doing that).

Via Parent Hacks: there are likely free formula samples available at your pediatrician’s office.  I can attest to this, having gotten some samples from our pediatrician when my son was only a couple of weeks old.  The sample also came with a free book that was a bit like “What to Expect the First Year”, but had some different things in it.  Formula is really expensive, so I was glad to get it!  Did you know that generic formula brands are just as good as the brand names?  I checked with the doctor on this, and they had no problem with me switching to the generic.  It’s a huge cost savings - sometimes almost twice as much formula for the same amount of cashola!
