Sneak Peak: VTech Innopad Tablet Coming this Fall

by | | 0 Comments

I got a sneak peak this week of something that VTech has been working on and I think it's pretty cool.  As of right now it's called the Innopad Tablet but since it's still in production, it's possible that may change.  Below is a picture, but again this is only a prototype so that may change a bit too.  But you get the idea. What is the Innopad?  Well it's a learning tablet for kids aged 4 - 9.  It does just about everything, it's pretty amazing.  They can play games, read e-books which in turn teach them the skills they need to learn in order to read themselves, it has an Art Studio, which I know my girls will LOVE, it has an MP3 player, video player, calendar, alarm clock, notepad,...

Fiber One Blueberry Yogurt Gift Pack Giveaway (ends 2/18)

by | | 227 Comments

According to a recent survey by Yoplait Fiber One, Americans are fed up with flavorless, boring snacks – and claim they are a contributor to diet failure. With 50 calories, 5 grams of fiber and 0 grams of fat, Yoplait Fiber One Blueberry yogurt is a perfect solution, packed with real fruit and the great taste of blueberries that you’ll love. As an added bonus, the deliciously creamy yogurt also contains vitamins A and D and is a good source of calcium. Our favorite flavors of yogurt are Vanilla and Strawberry so I'm excited to try the Blueberry Fiber One.  I haven't been able to find it in our stores yet but I'm sure they will have it soon.  I am sure I'll like it as I love blueberry's!  I...

Big G Wholegrain Giveaway (ends 2/18)

by | | 234 Comments

My girls love cereal, but without milk.  I'd prefer they had some milk with it but at the same time I'm happy that so many times when they want a snack, they will turn to a bowl of Cheerios over cookies!!!  I should own stock in General Mills because of the boxes of cereal that we go through each month.  But then again, I never pay full price so I probably haven't really given them a lot of money! According to the 2010 Report of the Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee, only five percent of Americans get the three full recommended daily servings – a shocking statistic. With many Americans making New Year’s Resolutions to live healthier, it’s never been easier to get the whole grain you...
