Hoagie Game Review





                                                    Hoagie Game Review


Hoagie is a really cool card game, and very easy to play! So perfect for a family game night, or anytime! This game is very unique.  It features competitive game play in a fun and unique way. The little characters called Oogies are the highlight of the game. They are pesky little icky creatures that can ruin your sandwich, or Hoagie!  This is a fun, simple, low key game for the whole family.
I am from PA, and they call them Hoagies there.  
I know some states call them subs, grinders, heros, or wedges.

Video review update:  2-5 players and suitable for any age!

Kidecals labels review

We have all been there.  We have all purchased labels, or personalized labels that didn't last. I no longer have that problem. Kidecals contacted me recently and asked me to review their labels. I am so glad that I agreed to, they are fantastic! I love these labels.  I have them on my kids stainless steel cups, on my stainless steel cup, one some of their personal belongings like their electronics, and even on some of their homeschool text/work books.

They are exactly as they describe them on their website. They are strong, durable, waterproof, versatile, and they really do last through the dishwasher, washing machine, and microwave! They are perfect for all of your labeling needs. They are really cute too! I was given the wonderful opportunity to choose personalized labels for myself, my twins, and our homeschool workboxes. I LOVE these cute little labels!  I chose the organizing labels for our homeschool workboxes.  I was able to customize the color and words on the labels.  I am very pleased with the outcome.  The labels are a little more high priced than labels I have seen in the past, but these labels REALLY LAST!  I took extra time with my review to give time to text them,  I am fully satisfied with their quality!

The organizing labels are so perfect for labeling homeschool workbox carts, manipulative bins, toy bins, book bins, and anything else you can think of.

I love the way they look, they are very pretty!

I love how well made the labels are. I was amazed to see how well they go through the dishwasher especially! They don't even have issues in the freezer or refrigerator.  Same with the washing machine and dryer!

 Check out the kidecals website for all that they have to offer!

Gonge Stepping Stones - The Perfect Indoor Gross Motor


Gonge sent us a set of their hill tops, Island, river, and river stones and they are truly magnificent! My twins use them 4 or more times daily. They are perfect for indoor gross motor, They are excellent for my sons CMT,  He needs to stay active and do gross motor as much as he can! Every family should have these!

If you homeschool, have children under age 12, or have children that get into mischief often, these are a perfect helpful solution to their overabundance of energy! They can set them up in endless ways, they never get boring!  You can add to them to make them even more fun too! This is one of those family must-haves like Magna Tiles! A worthwhile investment!

They help so much when the kids have to stay indoors during inclement weather, which we have had a lot of lately.  They are so great for when they really need to be active in between homeschooling subjects.

If another parent asked me what to buy their kids for gross motor, these stepping stones would be my top choice!

They are not super cheap, but not over-priced either.  They are sturdy enough to hold adults, and very well made. They are worth their price for sure!
