Are you looking for Bubble Guppies bath toys? You aren't the only one!
Unfortunately, there are a limited number of Bubble Guppies merchandise available right now. This is such a huge shame because it is such a popular and fun show.
If you aren't familiar with Bubble Guppies, it is a popular kids television show on Nick Jr. We love it here in my house. I would love to have Bubble Guppies bath toys available. I can't find a release date for them.
You can purchase Bubble Guppies episodes online, as well as coloring books, story books, and Bubble Guppies plush. The plush toys are really popular.
Check out more information on the Bubble Guppies show, as well as buy the toys, on my Bubble Guppies Toys Squidoo page.

Angry Birds Stuffed Animals
Angry birds stuffed animals would be a great gift for any Angry Birds fan. Angry Birds, the wildly popular game for mobile devices, has spawned a ton of merchandise, including bedsheets and t-shirts, but I think I like the plush animals the most.
These super soft Angry Birds stuffed animals make authentic sounds right from the game at the press of a button. The plush animals are approximately 5 inches and come in lots of the Angry Bird characters.
These would make a great stocking stuffer, white elephant gift, or gift exchange. Most kids and adults have heard of this game, so it is a good all around gift to get when you aren't sure what to buy.
Check out some of the Angry Birds plush below. These are officially licensed products and are safe for 12 months and up.
As you can see, the prices are affordable enough you can give several to Angry Birds fans that want to collect them.

What Is Elf On The Shelf
Have you been asking yourself, "What is elf on the shelf?". If so, you are in the right spot.
Have your kids or grandkids ever asked you how Santa knows if they have been naughty or nice? The Elf on the Shelf is the answer.
The elf on the shelf box comes with an adorable Christmas elf and a storybook. The storybook tells how the elf watches over the children, then every night goes back to the North Pole to report to Santa on the kids. The elf comes back and ends up in a different place each morning. The kids can run around and look for the elf each morning.
Kids love this! It is a great family tradition. An extra fun part is that kids can register their elf online and get an adoption certificate along with a special letter from Santa.
In the interest of fairness and diversity, there are a couple of different Elf on the Shelf options. There is a blonde hair blue eyed girl or boy, and a black hair brown skinned boy or girl. The girl elves really don't look all that girly unless you buy the optional skirt. It is a bit pricey in my opinion, so I think making a skirt might be the best option if that is what you want.

New Furby - Don't Get Them Wet
And don't feed them after midnight! Just a little new Furby humor. They do look a bit like gremlins.
If you missed the Furby craze the time around, don't worry, the new Furby is completely updated and tricked out with all the latest and greatest tech.
So what does a Furby do? Well, that depends how well you take care of it and what you teach it. Let me explain.
The Furbies owner is responsible for feeding, talking to, and playing with the furby. How it is handled and interacted with affects how it acts and helps shape its personality. That might sound familiar to parents! When kids first open their Furby it will speak Furbish (of course), but the more it is talked to the more English it will learn. The Furby will respond to anything in its environment, even the music and other background noise it "hears".
If you want to go high tech, and you have an iPad, iPod touch, or iPhone with iOS 4.2 or later, you can also download a free app which helps you understand furbish. This can help you meet its needs better. Sounds weird and geeky, doesn't it? Love it!
Furbies or perhaps it is Furbys, come in a ton of different colors, so you are sure to find one to please your son or daughter (or yourself!). You should know that there are two waves of Furbies that came out in 2012. The standard first set included purple, pink, black, aqua, etc. The second wave came with cool topknots and more striking color schemes. I can't decide which ones I like better. Check out two examples below. The original 2012 Furby is on the left and the newer one on the right. I really like them both. It is hard to decide.
As I said before, there are LOTS of colors. Click either photo above or on the ad below and you can search for furby and the desired color. Price does vary by color, this is due to desirability, so keep that in mind!

Amazing Imaginext Eagle Talon Castle
Anyone with a son or daughter between the ages of 3 and 8 should consider buying the Imaginext Eagle Talon Castle from Fisher-Price.
Wondering what is special about the Eagle Talon Castle?
First of all, it is huge. It folds out to over 3 feet wide, but it can also be set up in smaller configurations. Second, there are lots of cool sound effects and different parts of the castle light up. The castle comes with plenty of play pieces to have a rich, satisfying experience, but more accessories are available for purchase. Many of the accessories cause the castle to interact with different vocalizations. It is very cool!
What comes with the castle?
In the box is the castle itself which includes three figure turn discs, two working catapults, one Turn Tech cannon (two projectiles included), three castle figures wearing helmets, shields, and swords, eight discs for the catapults, a treasure chest, two ladders for scaling the walls, and four flags.
While the Imaginext Eagle Talon Castle is the boy's answer to any dollhouse starting with the word "Ultimate" or "Dream", I think girls would love playing with the castle too. I know I would have! This castle would be perfect if you have a son or daughter in the 3-8 age group. Wherever there are knights, castles, and dragons, there are fair princesses!

Pillow Pets Dream Lites Review
Most parents out there have probably heard of Dream Lites by now. The commercials are shown heavily on Nick Jr and other kids' channels.
My daughter told me all about it one day, but until I saw the commercial for myself, I wasn't sure what she was talking about. My Pillow Pets, the manufacturer, did a great job with the commercial. It really sells the product well.
I decided to purchase the Pillow Pets Plush Dream Lites NightLite Rainbow Unicorn
for my daughter's birthday. She was SO surprised and her little face lit up. It was great! I felt like the best mom ever.The moment of truth came when it was time to put in the batteries. The battery compartment is shut with a screw, which I really like, though it does take longer than the old style tab. Dream Lites take 3 AAA batteries, so be sure to have those on hand if you give one as a gift. We got the batteries in and turned it on.
It was afternoon and we had the curtains open, so it really wasn't that impressive. We went into the bathroom and shut the door. It looked great! You can set the Dream Lite to rotate between amber, green, and blue, or have it steady on one of those colors. I think the blue is my favorite. There are a bunch of stars, a crescent moon, and then the unicorn. Other Dream Lites have their respective picture that shows up on the ceiling.
We couldn't wait for bedtime to roll around. Fortunately, there were plenty of other new toys to play with before bed. At bedtime my daughter put the Dream Lites on her bed, turned it on, and I turned out the lights. Major OOOHS and AHHHS! My daughter has a string of light stars in her bedroom already that she uses as a night light. With that on the stars are fainter, but still visible. Obviously, it looks best with no other lights on.
I've read some reviews by other parents where they are upset that their child's room doesn't light up and glow as brightly as in the commercial. Well, I've never once gotten a Big Mac at my local McDonald's that looked like the one in the commercial. I really didn't expect it to look the same. It looks great though, and I am very happy with the purchase. Do I wish it was cheaper? Sure, I wish that about everything!

Disney Brave Bear Cub Pillow Pet
Pillow Pets from My Pillow Pets are some of the cutest plush animals around. For those of you who haven't seen these before, Pillow Pets are a combination stuffed animal and pillow. Kids love them. The picture above shows one as a stuffed animal and it can be folded out flat to be used as a fluffy pillow friend.
The company has been wildly successful in branching out to secondary products like blankets, Pillow Pet Slippers, Pillow Pet Hats, and Dreamlites. Besides companion products, they've also obtained licensing for special My Pillow Pets. The latest licensed pillow pet is from the movie Brave.
If you have seen Brave you know that Princess Merida has triplet little brothers that turn into bear cubs during the course of the movie. This Pillow Pet is absolutely adorable. I love its blue eyes and they've managed to make it look mischievous as well. This is the perfect Pillow Pet for fans of the movie Brave. Actually, it makes a cute bear cub pillow pet even if you aren't familiar with the movie.
I should mention that is an authentic licensed Disney product. It is one of many Disney Pillow Pets. I will be sharing more Disney Pillow Pets with you in my next post.
