I have very mixed feelings about the Zoomer Playful Pup, my 10, 7 and 2-year-old all absolutely love their Zoomer and they still spend a few hours a night playing with it. Zoomer is almost like a real dog minus the need for bathing, eating and using the restroom. He barks to your commands, he plays with you, lets you rub his belly and cuddle him, he does lots of tricks including rolling over, playing dead and shaking a paw. My kiddo's favorite command is when you say his name and then say "Look, there's a cat", Zoomer then goes bouncing around the living room and barking at the cat. Yes, I said bouncing, it is pretty cute I will say. He was very easy to program and set up, the instructions manual comes in different languages and explains step by step what you have to do, that was a plus for my kids because they were quickly able to figure it out and start playing with Zoomer. In my book all of these things make for a great toy, especially if they all love it and don't get tired of it, in this day and age it is hard to find a toy that keeps kids interested and Zoomer has done just that. My mixed feelings come from Zoomer not functioning properly after a week or two and the charge only lasting a little more than an hour before they have to recharge it. I will say that when you open the box it does have a card that tells you the back legs may stop working appropriately and tells you how to fix it, but even after doing the fix it goes back to not working correct after a few hours. As you can see in my video it isn't just the legs that stop working correct either, when you tap the back button, after he barks you are supposed to be able to say his name then give him a command, at first, he was doing this great, after about a week however he kept getting the commands wrong. Also, the charge only lasts a few hours. We charged him completely before playing with him, when plugging in the eyes start blinking green and you know he is charged all the way when the eyes stop blinking, the charge lasted an hour and 27 minutes after we took him off the charger. It seems like a toy for this price, the charge should last a bit longer. The actual charging process though isn't too long so my kiddos were able to play with it again by after dinner so they were happy. My overall opinion as an adult buyer of Zoomer is that for this price, it should have less function issues and stay charged longer. I would not recommend Zoomer at this price unless these issues were fixed. If it were up to my kiddo's though they still say they are telling all of their friends about it because "Zoomer is AWESOME!" and they do not seem to care about the "issues" Zoomer is having. So really it depends on how you look at it on whether or not you should buy it, do you want to get your monies worth, which most parents do, or do you not care if your child is happy with it. I did get Zoomer Playful Pup for free in exchange for my opinion but all of my opinions are my own and not influenced by this. -

We are a family of six and love Lego's in our house. We have everything from Minecraft, Princess Castle, and Star Wars to just the original set that comes with different colored blocks that you can turn into anything. It is great family time to put these together and helps us work together as a family. Each set comes with very detailed instructions that includes photos of how it wants you to put it together. The instructions break it down piece by piece so it makes it very easy to follow. I also love that they don't come apart easily, my two year old daughter tends to drop her lego's quite a bit so it's nice not to have to put them back together each time. I would recommend Lego's to anyone who loves to build, loves doing fun tings with the kid's etc. The only thing I don't particularly like about Lego's is the price. The price is usually pretty steak for any of the really good sets, it obviously doesn't keep many people from buying them though so take that as you will. -

If anyone in Yukon OK is ever looking for a great place to eat random food that you don't normally get anywhere else I definitely recommend Snack Attack. It has everything from desert, hot Cheetos and cheese, tamales, Mexican fruit water and everything in between. The staff is also AMAZING! My son had accidentally dropped his nachos on the ground going from the counter to the table and they immediately came and helped clean it up and gave him a new plate full. They also gave us all free homemade ice cream since we were the only ones in there. The food was delicious and we will make this a family place to go every once in awhile for sure! -

My kiddo's absolutely love Lunchables, and I love buying them for my kids. Not only are they a great value packed with healthier nutrients they need they are also so easy to just put into the lunch pail and go instead of having to make a sandwich. I usually add in a cheese stick or a fruit of some sort with these to their lunches and they never complain about still being hungry. I also love to eat them as a snack or quick lunch also, the flavor is just as good as any lunch meat and cheese you buy at the store. Cheap - Check, Easy & Convenient - Check, Delicious - Check. This is all ingredients to a great product in my eyes. I recommend to anyone loving convenience and great taste! -

The Paw Patrol - Monkey Temple Playset made by Spin Master is a GREAT toy for any occasion. I have four kids and my 5 and 8 year olds were the two that this toy spoke to most, although I do believe a younger child would love it as well. When opening the package there were only 7 pieces I had to attach myself to the main two and it was easy peasy, they just snapped right in. The toy is very sturdy itself and made from great hard plastic material and the pieces do not fall off so the only thing you would have to worry about a little or animal putting in its mouth would be the monkey that the set comes with, it is a bit smaller but perfect size for the playset. It also came with one character from PAW Patrol and a vehicle, these were both very sturdy pieces as well. My boys especially loved the fact that the monkey and the puppy both slid down the vine on the side of the playset and that they could drive the car through it. This set also takes 2 AA batteries for the lights on the top center piece. I believe this toy to be a great find and will be purchasing one for my nephews birthday next month. -

Garnier Soothing Facial Mist with Rose Water is pretty great! It makes my skin look fresh and gave it a great glow. It also smells amazing so that’s a nice bonus. The ingredients aren't harsh and I also really love that. The only reason I would give it a 4 Star is because it isn’t really ideal to have to spray it on your face. It gets on your lips and makes your face wet for a few minutes and it feels like I need to rub it in. However that is a minor inconvenience compared to the way it makes my skin feel and smell so I think it’s a great product and will definitely be buying this. -
