The Reindeer In Here

   

     Elves on your shelves move over for a new friends The reindeer In Here is the HIT Christmas Item of the season that is absolutely going to be a family favorite for years to come. No Kidding! Where as the Elf is here to keep an eye on you, Reindeer In Here is sent by Santa to get to know each and every child! For your whole season you can take your friend with you and show him all your likes, dislikes, go on adventures and show them what kind of boy or gal you are inside and out!  After all your play during the day the magic happens at night.  That's  when the reindeer will send Santa a Letter a night for a whole month sharing all the amazing adventures you went on. He will tell Ol' Kris Kringle your child's likes, dislikes, personality, EVERYTHING! Helping Santa deliver that one special Christmas Wish on Christmas Eve! Then on Christmas you can leave your Reindeer under the tree to fly back to the North Pole until he returns next year!
    What a nice treat this was to find at TTPM. We have all these little creepy things to spy on the kids, that I find it refreshing that Santa is not sending an undercover agent, but a friend to get to know your child! There are no rules or restrictions for how the kids can interact with him. Which gives them the experience to truly engage with the product and make it their own. It is so well crafted and snugly as well that it will even live through all those adventures and washings if needed!  I am sure my son will not want to let it out of their sight after Christmas- and that is OK! Reindeer In Here also has a bunch of sidekicks that can come along for the fun, including a penguin, snowman, Seal, and a polar bear, that are featured in the story and all have fun personalities.
Reindeer In Here comes in a lovely box that includes his story which is just as lovely as the plush! They will want to read it all season long!
     The Author and creator whom I meet during the TTPM event was so genuine in his love of this product.  When he was speaking with my son about it, I swear his eyes had a little bit of twinkle in them! Who knows he could be the big guy himself! He truly wanted to create a product that the kids would love and they will! So get yourself now before they disappear off the shelf's until next year- because guys... This is going ot be a think. I Guarantee it!

Flower Fairies Secret Garden Review

     

     Flower Fairies have been around since 1923. That is when Cicely Mary Barkers published her truly original book of drawings.  The book contained botanically accurate drawings of flowers, accompanied by Fairies inspired by her loved ones. These Fairies have become beloved ever since by both adults and children all around the world inspiring a book series as well as the Flower Fairies Secret Garden.  

     Now you can bring the beloved Fairies from the page and into your home with these beautifully crafted figurines and decorations! Create your own magical garden with a secret fairy door, entering into a fully decorated garden including trees,  stepping stones with inspirational wording, and occupied by beautiful fairies.  So much fun for both kids and aduts to indulge in, you can make any space in your house a home to the fairy realm with ease.
  I made my fairy garden into a centerpiece for my table (I got this amazing mushroom lamp from Cracker barrel and the rest is history) and had such fun placing the pieces just the way I liked them. It brought back  memories of decorating a doll house- only I didn’t need the actual doll house to enjoy it. This is one of the appeals of this set. It stirs up that whimsical feeling of wanting to immerse yourself in a world of your own creation- something that stays with us no matter how old we get!  After it was set up I started leaving little notes in the mail box which opens and closes (A feat not easily done just so you know) so that when my niece visits she has a little message from the fairy realm! She has even taken to leaving thimbles of milk for her little fairy friends! The Pieces are `made of plastic so I do not have to worry when she climbs on the chair and starts playing with them- even though my inner ocd wants to put them back the way they are (remember sharing is caring!). I could not love this idea, or these beautifully crafted pieces more! I cannot wait to buy more to make an even bigger Fairy Realm for the whole family to enjoy…even if that means they cannot eat on the table!

Let Me Tell You About Something- A Book From A NJ Housewive Caroline Manzo




     Everyone has their secrets, their little guilty pleasures that they don't tell anyone about. Well my friends I am exposing my secret for the world to see. I love the Real Housewives of New Jersey. There I said it and I feel a little freer. Yes they are a little nuts and I know I know from NJ but I love this cast of characters. One of my favorites is the strong opinionated and leader of the Jersey pack Mrs. Caroline Manzo. I just liked her from the beginning: her 'head of the family'take on situations, her devotion to her husband and family, and her no nonsense attitude towards any situation made her have a special place in my heart.   I will even admit that in certain family unpleasantness I have often thought wwbd (what would Buffy do) but when slaying them was clearly not an option I would turn to my second best, wwcd (what would Caroline do). With her new book Let Me Tell You About Something- you no longer have to wonder. In this 215 page book Caroline
