Both Kora and Logan love to draw and color. As you may have seen in past posts, Kora really has a love for art. That’s why when I heard about the Toon Boom’s Flip Boom Doodle software, I knew she would love it. It only took a few minutes and the software was downloaded and [...]
While I love my iPhone, one thing I can’t stand is bubbles, fingerprints, and scratches on the screen protector. That’s why when I heard about the PureTek Roll-On Screen Shield Kit for the iPhone, I knew it was something we’d love to try. The PureTek Roll-On Screen Shield Kit allows you to easily place an [...]
Just before the holidays, I wrote about how excited we were about the VTech Innotab. If you haven’t seen or heard about it yet, the Innotab is an educational tablet for kids. Kora and Logan love playing on our iPad and I knew the Innotab would be a big hit with them. What I love about [...]
It’s amazing how times change, we have come a long, long way since the days of VHS tapes! We all know that the best way to enjoy your movie experience at home is by watching it on a Blu-ray Disc. That’s why I was excited to learn about the Blu-ray Digital Storage System which allows [...]
As we are wrapping up our holiday shopping, I have to mention one of my favorite online shopping sites – RadioShack.com. As a “Wired” family, we are always interested in the latest technology and gadgets and since RadioShack is the leading national retailer of mobile, home, and personal technology products, it’s the perfect place to [...]
In our family it’s hard to say who enjoys the iPad more – the parents or the kids. While Dave and I like using the iPad for all kinds of tasks and for fun, Kora and Logan absolutely love to play games on it. We always make sure that the games that they play have [...]
With winter break here for Logan and right around the corner for Kora, we know that cabin fever will soon be setting in. With the temperature dropping below freezing and the snow and winds blowing, heading outside for very long isn’t much of an option. So to keep the kids entertained we decided to host [...]
Sometimes Christmas comes a little bit early! The other day I came home to find a new Philips Norelco SensoTouch 3D electric razor waiting for me. Not only was I surprised but I was very happy to hear that I could test it out right away and I didn’t have to wait for it while [...]
One of our best purchases last year at Christmas was the Nintendo Wii. While Dave was eager to buy one, I was a little hesitant because I didn’t know how much we’d use it or if any of the games would have any educational or family value at all. Pleasantly, I’ve been surprised. There are a number [...]
One of the big tech questions recently has been what is the best tablet to buy? There are so many out there that it’s hard to know which one will suit your needs best. Recently we started using the Impression 10 Tablet by Leader International and have been “impressed” by the wide variety of features [...]
Internet radio . . . what popped in your head? Streaming songs on your computer? Maybe listening to a bulky and expensive piece of equipment? The Pure One Flow Internet Radio is turning that thought upside down. The Pure One Flow is a very portable, easy to use and in a price class that makes internet [...]
My dad has recently retired and would love to turn his passion for photography into a successful business. Needless to say, over the years he’s taken tens of thousands of photos. A good percentage of them are of our family, including the grandkids. That’s why a couple of years ago when he had a technical [...]
I love custom iPhone cases. They are so fun to design and always make me smile. That’s why when I recently heard about Zazzle and Case-Mate partnering to introduce custom iPhone cases, I was excited to give the new service a try. Zazzle is fun because it is the world’s biggest customization site. You can [...]
The VueZone Personal Video Network is such a grand little invention that is insanely simple to install and activate. I first saw this little monitoring system a couple of months ago when a buddy was looking to install it to monitor his office. I thought to myself “there is no way this guy is going [...]
This winter I can’t wait to cozy up with a warm cup of chai tea latte, cappuccino, latte, and hot chocolate thanks to our Tassimo Home Brewing System by Bosch. I’m always cold and have a hard time getting out from under the covers on frigid snowy mornings. Waking up to a hot beverage that’s ready [...]
This funny little fruit shaped item is a whole lot more interesting than it lets on. Standing in at a size smaller than my closed fist, is an ingenious object that can change the way you watch TV. I can’t tell you the number of times Tésa and I have looked all over for our TV [...]
What do you do when you are not feeling well? Depending how badly you feel, you most likely will go to the doctor. It’s always best to eliminate all the guesswork with our health, but with our car, it’s a whole different story. I am not a mechanic, but I am pretty good at figuring [...]
As you’ve probably read in my other reviews, I love to bake. While I’ve always used a hand mixer, I’ve wanted a stand mixer for as long as I can remember. When I saw KitchenAid’s Artisan 5-Quart Stand Mixer on QVC’s In the Kitchen With David, I knew it would be perfect. After it was [...]
Kora and Logan enjoy watching Arthur and reading the Arthur books as well. Sometimes they even pretend to be the characters and make up their own stories. Logan pretends to be Arthur and Kora pretends to be Francine. They run around the house acting out scenes from the books or show and each will insist [...]
Who out there remembers rabbit ears on a TV? Do you remember when you or your family first upgraded to cable? Remember how clear was that picture was? It was AWESOME, right? I had a very similar experience when I hooked my DVD player up to my TV using a RedMere HDMI Cable. Previously I [...]
