Bratz Fashion Boutique for Nintendo 3DS by Activision

Bratz Fashion Boutique 
Nintentdo 3DS, DS
Released by Activision
Available Now
From the minute my six year old daughter, Emily, heard that
Bratz Fashion Boutique for Nintendo 3DS was on its way
to our house for review she has been awaiting the arrival.
Fashion and little girlie girls go hand in hand and the Bratz
have a real handle on the fashion world.
Emily dove right into this interactive Fashion Boutique
whole heartedly and there was no turning back.
As the game begins the Bratz come in to save the day
when the Fashion Boutique has had enough of mall life and
moves on leaving the owner high and dry.
Thank goodness the Bratz have it all together
and can pull an outfit together with your hrlp, of course.
With the help of you, Yasmin, Jade, Sasha and Cloe there is no way
the mall will be in danger of closing! Emily loved
testing out all the fashion designing, customizing outfits from
cutting the fabric to following the pattern to strutting down the
runway. The more fashions that are created the more money
the Bratz gals earn to save the Stylesville Mall!
What more could a girl ask for?

I must admit that I did have to test this one out
myself and create a few fashions. The directions and cues were
easy to follow for little girls, tweens and even mommies!
If you have a little Diva in your house, they
need this one! Bratz Fashion Boutique will
not disappoint your little fashion fan!
The 3DS just makes the whole experience more
true to life.

Lalaloopsy Carnival of Friends Released by Activision

Lalaloopsy Carnival of Friends 
Nintendo 3DS, DS
Released by Activision
Now Available

Most of my “Mommy” life I have spent being a BoyMom.
It was a total blue house around here for sixteen years before the 
Princess arrived. During the past 6 years I have had a lot of adjusting to do.
Our house is filled with 3DS games of all sorts, most
of them with a boy theme running through them.
Recently Em has taken to the Nintendo 3DS, so I 
was thrilled to be invited to review 
Emily loved this game from the minute it turned on.
She is a big fan of Lalaloopsy and loves carnivals, 
so this was a total win. I loved how she was able to 
play the game by herself and understand it. It has simple directions,
upbeat music, and vibrant color schemes throughout the 
game. She was very excited to find out she could play with 
the Lalaloopsy Littles, the Lalaloopsy siblings! 
They really are adorable! Along with forty characters 
there are sixteen different levels to check out with a
 Silly Funhouse carnival theme. Emily could not get enough
of the Peanut Bigtop, Lalaloopsy, and all the fun!
Check out Emily playing Lalaloopsy Carnival of Friends.

A Great Place To Shop
For Boys and Girls

Recently, thanks to The Moms I had the pleasure of  hosting a
great event at p.s. from aeropostale. I have been to Aeropostale many
times with my oldest and middle son, but I never had the 
chance to stop into the p.s. from aeropostale store.
This fabulous children’s clothing store carries clothes 
and accessories for boys and girls sizes 4-14.
My little diva daughter gave @PSfromAero  the 
thumbs up from the moment we entered the store. 
Within a matter of minutes she chose a pair of pants, matching top,
socks and of course boots! I want to say that was the end
of her shopping spree but it was not. Emily as well as the other 
children and moms at the event busied around the store
choosing everything from nail polishes and lip glosses to 
pj’s, slippers, dress up clothes and of course comfy-wear that
comes to mind when we think of p.s. from aeropostale.
In addition to shopping the children were
able to design and paint tee shirts to enter the
What Makes U Smile? contest.
The children gathered up and showed their creative 
side as they painted everything from peace signs, to rainbows and hearts.
I’m glad I am not the judge of this contest! You can be the judge though and VOTE 
right now until November 15th! Winners will be announced in December. I have a feeling
the Willowbrook Mall location entries may have some top t-shirts in the contest.

All the moms, dads and children at the event could not do
anything but rave about p.s. from aeropostale. I could not disagree with them.
Personally, I was surprised by the reasonable pricing. You could put together a
fashionable outfit for your child without breaking the bank. There were 
tees starting at $5-$7 which amazed me. There were items that were higher, of course, but 
there was also plenty to offset those. I grabbed some matching 
tees and sweats for Emily at just $5 each! Honestly, I could not believe it!
We also came home with some cuddly slippers and even adorable cozy pjs!
p.s. from aeropostale gets BIG thumbs up from our family!
This is a store you don’t need to walk by because you think it will cost an arm and
a leg! Your child will look like a million dollars and you 
enjoy the comfort of p.s. from aeropostale clothing.
By the way, Emily has already tested out all of her clothing and 
loved it. Just as a note to parents, all of the clothes came through the 
washer/dryer and are still the same size and quality. This is really important to 
me as a mom because we always have a donation bag of clothes going that we call “One Wears”.
They are clothes Emily wears once and when they come back from the dryer they are 
3 sizes smaller and in a nightmare state. I am glad to say that 
the p.s. from aeropostale clothes passed the test!
As a former teacher I would have to give p.s. from aeropostale 
store and clothing line 
an A+!

Our family is gearing up for Disney on Ice Rockin Ever After!
We will be heading to Prudential Center this week and not only the kids, 
but us parents are pretty excited about it!
Disney On Ice has been a  happy part of our family activities for many years.
Since our oldest son is twenty-one, I can remember the fun of taking him as 
a baby and then continuing the fun with our second and third child.
One thing I absolutely love about Disney On Ice is that it is always 
changing. It never gets old. It always has something that is new and 
exciting and is fun no matter how many times you have been to it!
 Disney On Ice Rockin Ever After appears to 
be a very energetic and rockin show! Our family cannot wait to see it!
In a new twist on fairy tale fun, favorite Disney characters compete to be
the next superstar in a comical show leading up to the tales of show stopping
princesses Ariel, Rapunzel, and the ice debut of Merida from Disney Pixar’s BRAVE!
“The most exciting part of bringing the fearless and independent character of 
Merida to the ice for the first time is knowing that she has a powerful and 
inspiring message to deliver about finding the courage to determine one’s 
own fate”, says Producer Nicole Feld. “We think her story translates well to the ice and will
really resonate with today’s audience”.
