love your veggies game

March 18, 2009

hidden valley ranch has started a website gaered towards kids, it has games and great information for getting kids to eat their veggies. the game section is what i will be talking about.

getting your kids to eat their veggies can be tuff, love your veggies has great ways to introduce veggies to your kids.  i know my kids won’t touch any veggie but corn and potatos. i usually have to like blend them in their food to get them to eat them.

Veggie Adventures

love your veggies game site, lets kids have fun with their veggies. i played the game general store. it was alot of fun. it’s divided into three sections.

growing your veggies-you spray water on bugs and animals to keep them off your veggies while they grow.   when i played i did pretty good with this aprt and saved all 78 veggies

moving your veggies.-you need to drive your veggies to the kitchen from the farm without spilling any. there are bumps, animals and rocks along the way.

the kitchen-you need to feed all the hungry tummies with your healthy snacks.

the game was fun and made me want to go plant my own garden. at the same time, i found it a little confusing. i don’t know if my computer was slow or the game, but it seemed to take forever for the truck to move. i could never get past level two. so i never able to feed the tummies.

i do believe that this game is very useful towards children my daughter was very excited and wanted to know more about planting her own garden and different types of veggies.

my daughter loved it, and wanted to try it at home. she got a carrot and put it in her toy truck. ha!

thanks to mom central for this post


ballas hough band

March 18, 2009

 

Ballas Hough Band consists of Mark ballas and Derek Hough,both from dancing with the stars (vocals and guitar),Emily Grace on vocals and keyboard, Harry Sullivan on drums, and Sam Marder on bass.

the band was formed in 2005 in London and was called chasing amy, they came  to the us in 2008 and were signed by Hollywood records.

BHB Group

i don’t typically watch dancing with the stars. i’m not really into reality television. but dwts has been on for a while and i never knew they were in a band, and they are great.  usually when you see a professional ballroom dancer, you think to yourself, that’s their talent. these guys offer so much more they can sing too!

Tracks from the album:

1.DO YOU LOVE ME

2. DEVASTATED

3.CLOSER

4.SHE WAS THE ONE

5.LONGING FOR

6.BIRTHDAY

7.FALL

8. DO IT FOR YOU

9.BREAK THROUGH

10. TOGETHER FARAWAY

11.UNDERWATER

my favorite song from the cd was DO IT FOR YOU. it’s got kind of a pop/rock edge to it.  my kids automatically began dancing to it and trying to sing.  

their music was actually better than i thought it would be. i was expecting like calm slow classical music or something. thats what i would imagine from ballroom dancers. no it’s the exact opposite. it’s upbeat, got a rock pop edge to it. It’s really great.

you can buy the cd here


i’ve reached 400 posts

March 18, 2009

this is actually 401. i never imagined, i’ve only been blogging for a year.

i’m glad that i have been able to be part of the blogosphere, even though i still don’t have a lot of page hits or visits. but i’ve learned that sometimes how many visitors you get are not everything. it mat bring more pr reps to you, and give you better product reviews. i think it’s just the fact that you are a good writer and trying to share your thoughts and opinions.

March 16, 2009


pinnochio has just been re-released to disney dvd platinum edition. it now has digital restoration, and better picture and sound.

geppetto’s  beloved puppet along with jiminy cricket go on a thrilling quest, that tests his bravery, honesty and loyalty. he must learn to become a real boy. story that made us all believe in our dreams, and made us all wish upon stars.

i’ve always loved this movie and i loved sharing it with my kids.  this movie was so fascinating for the kids. my daughter absolutely loved the nose growing. so now whenever she hears a lie she pretends that persons nose is growing.
