Disney Planes Review
** I was sent a copy of this title for the purpose of this review. However, my own opinion was used and not influenced in any way. Disney Planes I love all things Disney. Every time there is a new movie out I have to take my family to see it. We even went to Disney's Planes on opening night. Disney Planes is a movie that my whole family loved. My husband included and he normally don't watch cartoons with us. He loved Disney Planes and was the first one to sit down and watch it again after our Blu-ray copy arrived. Disney Planes is about a crop duster who dreams of winning a race. He knows how hard this might be since racing is not what normal crop dusters do...but he can't give up on his dream. Ashes Thoughts I love this movie. It is a movie that I can sit and watch while I cuddle with my Daddy. We loved watching Cars together and I was excited to see what fun the plains got into.

Technology & Schooling Go Together Like Peanut Butter & Jelly
Technology & Schooling Go Together Like Peanut Butter & Jelly Have you ever just looked at your child with a stunned face wondering how they can figure out all these electronic gadgets so easily? It's unbelievable to me that my eight year old son can do things that I hadn't even thought of. I consider myself a semi tech savvy person, I can get around on my own fairly easy when it comes to technology but there are times where I am shocked that my children are learning in new and inventive ways and going above my knowledge in the tech world. What happened to the old trusty abacus or just a pencil and paper?! Don't get me wrong, my kids still use plenty of pencils and paper but the tools they have now to teach children are really geared towards technology. My kids were born into a tech world and they have picked it up quickly. Things are being replaced to make it easier for both the educator and the student. Instead of chalkboards there are now amazing smartboards, … [Read more...]

Disney’s Phineas and Ferb Mission Marvel on DVD
I was sent a copy of Phineas and Ferb Mission Marvel for the purpose of this review. However, my own opinion was used and not influenced in any way. Disney's Phineas and Ferb Mission Marvel Phineas and Ferb and the adventures Marvel characters are two worlds that I never thought would combine. But, alas they have! This was such a great combination in my opinion as it made the day of two little ones in my home. As most of you know I have an 8 year old daughter who loves Phineas and Ferb. But, something that might surprise some of you is that I also have a 7 year old little brother. My daughter and little brother are the best of friends and they do everything together. That is why I was so happy to see each of their favorite cartoons combine into one! When this DVD arrived there was NO fighting over what to watch! Ashes Thoughts - Age 8 Super Hero's come and knock on Phineas and Ferb's door. It seems that Dr. Doofenshmirtz took away their powers. Phineas and Ferb tried to help … [Read more...]
