#Giveaway Liberty Science Center- Jack Horner’s Dino Dig #LibertyScienceCenter

Liberty Science Center Jack Horner’s Dino Dig- Giveaway

LSCdinoCalling all dinosaur fans. We have found something special just for you this summer. As if Liberty Science Center is not  already great enough to go to, it seems that it just got even better. From now through September 4th you can find Liberty Science Center decked out in dinosaurs from head to toe. We were excited to join Jersey Moms Media on a hosted blogger influencer tour of everything dinosaurs. Our group of chatty youngsters could not wait to learn everything they could about everything from the Cretaceous Period. The kids really enjoyed their hands on experience of uncovering an individual dinosaur fossil block which contained skeletal pieces of a dinosaur that could be pieced together to create a full dinosaur. It took a lot of work to uncover those pieces but it was worth it at the end! http://lsc.org/LSCdino1 LSCdino9Liberty Science Center has added Jack Horner’s Dino Dig site to its outside backyard. Your little paleontologist will be able to enter this realistic dig site and try their luck and skill at digging up some dinosaur bones, skeletons and fossils. Of course there will be plenty of guidance via the Dino Dig Guide Team that will be there to help answer questions and provide facts along the way. I was amazed to find out there was thirty five tons of sands and fifty replica fossils of creatures from the late Cretaceous Period. LSCdino2 LSCdino4 Wondering how Jack Horner’s Dino Dig got its name? Jack Horner was a paleontologist and the inspiration for the Michael Crichton novel and Steven Spielberg film, Jurassic Park. The dig site is modeled after the Hell Creek Formation in Montana, a site of study by Horner and his team. While using paleontologists’ tools including a brush you may uncover fossils from T-Rex, Triceratops, and others. LSCdino3 LSCdino12 When you visit Liberty Science Center feel free to stop at the Welcome Desk at the entrance for more details.

Sony The Emoji Movie Now In Theaters #EmojiMovie

 

Sony The Emoji Movie, Now In Theaters

Emoji1

The Emoji Movie is the perfect social-media filled film for the whole family! From apps such as Spotify to even Just Dance making appearances in the movie, there’s something for everyone in this summer. The Emoji Movie focuses on Gene & his quest to fit in alongside the other emojis in his owner’s phone. When he finds out that he is viewed as a malfunction, Gene takes it upon himself to venture out and find a way to fix his problem before imminent destruction.

The movie is a wild ride, as Gene is joined by Hi-5. portrayed by James Corden, and Jailbreak, who is played by Anna Faris. They help him on his journey, as they surf through Spotify, YouTube, Just Dance, Dropbox, and many more familiar applications. A highlight of the Just Dance segment has to be the first appearance of the movie’s “Emoji Bop” dance, where the main character covers his face & pops out with a different emoji face every time.

Emoji3
While there are plenty of jokes for younger audiences, I found myself laughing the hardest during the movie’s segments following the characters of Mel Meh & Mary Meh, Gene’s parents in the film. As they search for their son but cannot break from their one emotion, they keep their conversations in one consistent monotone voice which makes for some great moments. Another highlight has to be the addition of the Poop emoji, portrayed by Sir Patrick Stewart, as he makes jokes such as telling his son not to wash his hands in the bathroom. The film does a great job giving the smaller characters personality, and making audiences feel the sense of there being a living world within their phones.
Emoji2

Overall, The Emoji Movie is a big win for families as a mid-summer release. With laughs, a story that incorporates some of the most popular apps children and adults alike are using to this day, and a great cast, the film is a great time for all ages.
I had the pleasure of attending the Emoji Movie Press Junket at Sony Square NYC. Maya Rudolph who voiced the movie’s villain Smiler was more than happy to share her thoughts on the movie, parenting and more. Maya thought taking on the role of Smiler would be a fun challenge and also stated she thought the role was not as elaborate as she envisioned it to be. She loved that Smiler was one of the original set of emojis. Maya stated, “Emojis are a part of life. Everyone that has a phone uses them.” Because Maya immediately fell in love with the character she found it even more exciting to play.
When asked about being a parent and dealing with social media and kids she made a point of saying just how tough it was on parents these days. Her children on not on any social media platforms at the moment. She does let them have time on their ipads and manages device time.
When asked how she was able to stay in character, Maya told us how Tony helped out in the sound booth helping her to keep smiling while being, “insane”.
Of course, being me, I asked Maya if Smiler had a message to the audience (even though she was the villain). Smiler’s message? Be moved! You think you know what you want to do then something changes like your hair, your job and your world goes in a different direction.
See you in Textopolis my little Emoji friends! Enjoy the movie. http://www.theemoji-movie.com/
