who wants a brat?

So today I thought I would review a toy that isn't so very sweet. Bratz is one of my least favorite new toys out today. These new "barbies" are obviously designed for kids right? yet they have more makeup on than any movie star I have ever seen. These kids are absorbing and learning from everything around them. Why would you want your kids playing with a toy whose name alone (brat) means "an ill-mannered annoying child?" These toys focus on all material things, cool clothes (which coincidentally aren't even sweet), fame, big expensive cars, jets, etc. It's just one fashion show after another. But I think what I hate most about these toys is their annoying faces. They have HUGE unrealistic lips and really big eyes. Their hair is too long and thier bodies are way too unproportionate. Have you noticed their tiny torsos and gigantic feet? They don't look a thing like real people yet our youngsters are idealizing them and their stupid materialistic lifestyles. Pretty much these toys are lame. So don't buy them for your kids.... we have enough brats in the world already.

Lincoln Logs

I was browsing through the toy store today and amidst all the new toys I came across an old favorite of mine. As a small child I tried unsuccessfully to make sweet cabins and had a fun time playing with the houses and people once they were built. But now I have become an expert builder making hotels and schools and now letting my little cousins play with the toy people in the big houses I create. The design of Lincoln Logs is so simple yet so terrific. Multiple sizes of the same piece, a log with squares cut out, so other logs can connect. Genius. This toy is great for all those future architects and such of the world or is pretty much awesome for playing no matter how old you are.

playing with dough

So I thought I should add in a review about a bad toy well a toy that I personally don't like. And I honestly couldn’t think of any. I mean besides the obviously and broad category of all those dumb TV shows for little kid toys and action figures. So I thought I would stick with being positive. Who wants to hear about lame toys anyway right? So I decided to go with Playdoh. I think this unique and exciting toy doesn't get enough credit. It’s been around for ages and kids never tire of it. It’s so soft and has that wonderful playdoh smell. And isn’t even that harmful (if at all) to eat. Its soo affordable and colorful and great. And if you happen to need more to keep you attention than a ball of sweet toy then you can totally check out all the playdoh accessories. There sure are a lot. And playdoh, unlike so many other toys, is extremely transportable and doesnt even make a big mess. This toy is pretty much ideal for pretty much every parent ever. So if you have kids but no playdoh, go get some because a kid without playdoh is hardy a kid at all....

all time best toy

Good afternoon. I would like to share with you my all time favorite toy. I have encountered countless toys and games in my life but legos are by far the best. Hands down. No question. So many possibilities, so many blocks, so many colors! This toy is totally amazing. I have been accumulating legos for as long as I can remember and I now have a quite extensive collection. This timeless toy, although typically recommended for children up to about age nine is just as good if not better when you experience it as an adult. I know I will never tire of designing, building, demolishing, and then starting all over again. and legos has created Duplos for younger kids, Bionicle creature deals, Clikits, and many other sweet toys. In addition they make pretty cool computer games, maybe not the best I have encountered but who can resist those cute little Lego people?? I assure you I cannot. And who could forget the cool Lego stores where you can buy your own Lego brick mix? and have you checked out Legoland? Now that’s sweet. An amusement park based solely around what might be the sweetest toy of all time... I mean... does it get any better...??

Rubiks Cube

Hello again. Today I am going to discuss the awesomeness of the Rubik’s Cube. This challenging toy has been baffling children and adults for the last 25 years. That's right. 25 years. Boy how time has flown. For a limited time you can actually purchase a commemorative cube with silver instead of white and a sweet 25 years sticker. I think this toy is underrated. It's simple, straight to the point, very challenging, and still tons of fun. I spent days learning the secrets of the cube and now the most rewarding aspect of this toy is amazing audiences in the classroom or even at work. There are many different varieties and knock-offs of the Rubik’s cube but the original is by far the greatest. This is pretty much one of the sweetest toys I’ve ever encountered. I mean how many toys have their own world championship?!?!
