Now that we’re in the second half of November, I know I’m not the only one starting to really flesh out my holiday shopping lists. Toys are almost always on kids’ wish lists (and many adults’ lists, as well!), so here are some of our favorite toys that we (or our kids) are wanting this year.

Product Review: Nerf Zombie Strike Dart Blaster Series

September 8, 2013November 24, 2017Patricia Vollmer1

I leapt at the chance to review Nerf’s newest products: the Zombie Strike line of products, which includes dart blasters, foam machettes, and other accessories. First available at SDCC this past July, we received a pair of blasters and darts in early August and the boys immediately “claimed” their arms of choice. For 2013, these items are a Target exclusive (although they’re being resold at smaller retail outlets). They will be more widely available in 2014.

Judge Us By Our Size Do Not–The Galactic Academy

May 30, 2013November 24, 2017Dakster Sullivan1

The only requirement is the child must be under the age of 18-years old and own a Star Wars costume of some kind.

Hasbro has reinvented laser tag for the new generation; the apple generation that is. I first learned about the system earlier this year and it looked promising. I’m happy to say that the fleshed out product is just as much fun as it was originally advertised. Compatible with the iPhone (3GS and up) and iPod (4th generation and up), this new laser tag is a ton of fun for the entire family.

Hey Nerf…Where Are The Girls?

January 18, 2012Nicole Wakelin

This weekend my husband went out with our daughters and bought himself them some new Nerf guns. They did not even remotely need these as we already have enough to equip the entire neighborhood, but that was irrelevant. Why? Because there’s this super-cool, new, never before seen, must have technology that shoots little discs instead […]
