Python Printable Games–Christmas pack

Two years ago I was picked to help with my son’s Christmas party at school. I was very excited. I had made pin-the-nose on Rudolph. While it worked I would have like to have had some more different games.

Python Printable Games offer printable games like crosswords, word searches, trivia, matching games and more for your holiday parties, classroom parties, or whatever.  I also like the paper dolls that were super cute!

I was given the opportunity to try the Christmas Printables game pack. One of the games I found the most different and interesting was the “No!”-El Weird Phobias Game. It was a matching game for holiday phobias.

There was a list of phobias down the left side and your guest would draw a line to a list of description in the Right column.

Do you know what holiday fears: Aeroacrophobia, Leukophobia, or Philemaphobia are? You will after you play the game. The cool part is all games come with a master answer key.

Another fun game i enjoyed was the “Charlie Brown Christmas Trivia” with questions about the classic Charlie Brown Christmas show and multiple choice answers. Here is an example of one of the questions:

In what year was “A Charlie Brown Christmas” released?

There are 70 games in the Printable Christmas Games pack.  The Christmas Game pack is $19.95 for all the games.  Print as many as you like.  Instantly delivered to your email so you can have it in time for your child’s Holiday party at school, your own holiday party, a fun holiday break at work, or whatever else you can think of. 

Included in this pack is also some New Year’s games like: New Year’s trivia, New Year’s mad libs and more.

I think this is a great value.  If you consider buying things to make games, the time it takes to put together a game, or buying puzzle books this definitely beats the alternatives. 

I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

ReBinder Office Products Review and Giveaway 12/28 US/CAN–CLOSED

Original winner did not respond to winning email.  (I allowed 72 hrs given the holiday) So a new winner has been chosen and emailed. Random.org drew number 31 Mommy D. 

I’ve mentioned a number of times how I’m making a conscious effort to live greener. As I’ve been learning and exploring more in the “green” world, I’m amazed at what some companies ARE actually doing to help our environment.

ReBinder Office Products is one of these eco-conscious companies. ReBinder Office Products makes all kinds of green office products from recycled binders, to ReBadge which is a reusable name badge, to ReWrite mini which is a 5″ X 8″ lined recycled notepad, and many more items.

ReBinder is the only ZERO waste office supply manufacturer.

I received a kit with samples of:

RePocket: Our two pocket folder is ideal for presentations, media and press kits or back to school. RePockets are thicker and more rigid than traditional folders. Made from 100% Recycled 20 point FSC Certified bending chipboard.

1″ ReBinder

RePouch

ReTab

1.5″ ReBinder

ReSleeve

RePlay

ReBadge

ReWrite mini

ReBound

One of the things I was most impressed with as far as the individual products was the ReBadge.  I have my own pic here because you don’t really see it too well in the press photo above:

It looks like a name badge.  It also looks and feels like a plastic cover.  Plastic cover?  Wait a minute I thought this was supposed to be eco-friendly.  Well, it is.  Very much so actually.  The “plastic”-like material is actually a clear Poly Lactic Acid that is made from plants.  Pretty cool huh?

So if you’re looking for new three ring binders for your business, school or organization and wanting to make the effort to work greener.  You should try them out. 

Maybe you’re looking to green up your cd collection by using Rebinder’s cd sleeves made from 100% recycled chip board.

Perhaps you want a bunch of environmentally friendly pocket folders for your classroom or your own home office organization, they have those too.

It’s kind of scary when you read some of the numbers of what actually goes into our landfills.  What we, as consumers are throwing out on a daily basis.  Every little bit helps. Visit http://www.rebinder.com/ to see all the green product ReBinder offers.

So Easy Toddler Food Cookbook Review


My youngest is 17 months old. He’s at a point now where he has a few teeth. He can chew. He wants whatever we have. The problem is he can’t always have everything we’re having. Sure I make modifications to some of the food like chopping it up fine, maybe adding milk to make the texture smoother like in potatoes, or something like that. Not everything appeals to him though.

I had the opportunity to review the: So Easy Toddler Food Cookbook from Fresh Baby.

The So Easy Toddler Food Cookbook starts off with info about how to develop healthy eating habits in your toddler.  There are tips for pick eaters, as well as a food terms section.

There are lots of fun recipes with colorful pictures of the dish.  One of the things I was most impressed with however, is the they have a nutrition facts table for each and every recipe!

There are recipes for your ordinary toddler favorites like: homemade pizza and variations of Macaroni and cheese to recipes that are a little more different like: Sand Castle Couscous and Tropical Summer Soup.  There’s also healthy toddler dessert recipes for Smooth and Creamy popsicles and Orange Frosty.

All of the recipes are easy to follow and make.  Some have pictures of several steps.  Also, all of the ingredients in the recipes are easy to find common ingredient. 

I would definitely recomment the So Easy Toddler Cookbook to anyone that cares for a toddler.  I like to think I’m crafty but sometimes I need some ideas when it comes to food.  This book was a great help. This book is also available in Spanish.

How to "catch" Santa at your house and provide proof #giveaway 12/20 5 winners!


My boys believe in Santa Clause. Last year they put the reindeer feed out. After opening gifts in the morning I had pretty much forgot about the reindeer feed. My oldest didn’t. He ran outside to see if the reindeer feed was gone. He came back in with a very excited voice saying “it’s gone, they ate the reindeer feed!”

I always thought it would be cute to find a way to “prove” Santa was here. Other than the presents of course. This year I found out about iCaughtSanta.com.

Use a picture from your own house and add a Santa pose to your picture.  It’s really easy to do too! Go to: http://www.icaughtsanta.com  upload a pic from your house, choose your Santa pose and move him around in the pic where you want.  You can adjust the size of your background and/or Santa.  You can adjust the brightness and color, and even add a border if you want to for only $9.99.  You can download the picture and print pics out yourself OR you can order prints from the site.  

You can even catch Santa on the go using the iphone app store: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/icaughtsanta/id341400468?mt=8

Here is my picture of proof of Santa at my house:

I’m planning on printing this out myself and setting it on the coffee table in the living room near the tree.  I want to see if they notice it first.  If not I’m going to show it to them.  I can’t wait to hear their reaction.

Also if you want to add a little extra something you can get a video for $4.99 of Santa coming to life in your very own photo.
