Description:
This is a hand held game system for smaller children. This game includes 1 Smartridge game and a left/right-handed joystick control. It features high-resolution color LCD screen. It can plug into your TV for at-home play on a bigger screen. This toy is made for children 5 years of age and up.

Review:
I love this toy and so does my son who is 4 years old. It is a great alternative to other game systems that are not as educational and not geared toward smaller children.

The controls are large and easy to figure out. The games are fun and educational. The system itself is sturdy. It is great for road trips or using as a teaching aid.

I would recommend buying the recharging dock for it. It will go through regular batteries pretty quickly. But it does come with an a/c adaptor so you can plug it in. You can also get a car adaptor for it.

I know the recommended age is 5 and up but my son has had no problems figuring it out and playing it. He really enjoys it and looks forward to getting new games for it.

Menu Planning Central - Review

Are you Meal Planning Yet?

Where to buy:
http://menuplanningcentral.com

Description:
Menu Planning Central is a monthly membership in which you receive a full month’s worth of meal ideas, recipes and shopping lists for not just one, but 3 different menus: Family friendly Menus, Healthy Menus, and Vegetarian Menus. You You also receive monthly bonuses that include extra recipes, menus, eBooks and more. You get information from the columnists there that include an expert on etiquette, family meals and even a nutritionist.

Review:
Menu Planning Central is awesome. As a mom, in a family of all boys, you can imagine how hectic life can be and planning a week’s worth of meals is downright exhausting. That’s just the planning; we won’t even talk about the shopping required every week.

When I plan the week’s meals, I have to take into consideration that my boys and husband all three are pretty set in their ways when it comes to food. They like what they like and I have to be careful when adding something new to the mix. To top it off we haven’t always eaten the healthiest, but I’ve realized how damaging that is and want to make a change and start preparing better meals for my family. Of course, most of the time they aren’t happy about it, so I have to find a way to combine the foods they love with the foods they need.

When I found Menu Planning Central, I couldn’t have been happier. Not only does it save me time planning and shopping for our meals, but also I can now shop for a whole month’s worth instead of one week at a time. I don’t wear myself out deciding what we’re going to eat or shopping for it. That’s why I only shop for a week at a time, because it’s exhausting and really hard to get out of the routine of eating the same things over and over because I just don’t have time to look for new meals and recipes every week. Now, I don’t have to!

I signed up in hopes of getting a month’s worth of meal plans and guess what? Instead I got 12 weeks (3 months) worth that I can mix and match if I want. So, I can give them the meals they like and throw in a few healthier meals that I love! The combination possibilities are endless! And the best part, I can print them all out and when we try them if there’s one they love I’ll save it and make it again later. If they hate it I’ll make note of it on the menu plan so I’ll be sure not to make it again. I could go forever without making the same meal twice with all the possible combinations.

Criticism:
The only thing I see so far that could be different is that each meal isn’t always complete. Sometimes there is a side dish included, sometimes there isn’t, but honestly that’s ok because that leaves room for me to add some of the guy’s favorites or mix and match even more from the other menus.

Olay Definity Anti-Aging Correcting Lotion - Review

Product Name:
Olay Definity Highly Defined Anti-aging Correcting Protective Lotion with SPF 15

Description:
Olay Definity Highly Defined Anti-aging Correcting Lotion with SPF 15 is a face lotion containing sunscreen. It helps to deter the signs of aging along with protecting your face from harmful sunrays.

Review:
I am 50 years old. I had a good start on “crow’s feet” at my eyes. Nothing I tried helped. Someone gave me Olay Definity Anti-Aging and said, “try it”. I am one of those people that say, “Yeah, if it sounds to good to be true, it usually is” and don’t put much hope into it. I used the lotion and I am absolutely amazed at what has happened! After only 1 week (honest, 1 week!) of putting the Olay Definity on the “crow’s feet”, the lines were 95% GONE! I am serious! I was so shocked! I thought, okay, a quick fix for a few days, the lines will return.

But I continued to use the lotion every day and after 2 months NO CROW’S FEET! I use the lotion twice daily. Olay Definity is now on my MUST HAVE NO MATTER WHAT list. Can’t praise it enough!
