I had a chance to sit down with my mom, my daughter, Sophia & I and play the SimplyFun game, Bank It! This game was a lot of fun! What I liked about this game is that it teaches kids, not only how to buy, but to save and to give to charity as well. This is a great game for kids who are just learning about money (my 6 year old for example) or kids who need to learn to be better with their money. So watch the video and enjoy!
Amazon Mom Club is awesome! I just bought a box of Huggies (140 ct) for $25.00 and that included shipping! This is awesome because I don’t have to go to the store anymore to buy diapers or wipes, they come each month for me! Plus for every Amazon Mom purchase you make you get a free month of Amazon Prime (no shipping fees)! It’s a total win-win, plus at Costco at 140 ct box (even with a $5 off coupon, see this month’s coupon book) it’s still $30! So yea Amazon for making moms lives a little easier!
To my loyal readers, I apologize for the lack of posting today and also for the lack of weekly recap. I will get this done tomorrow. I have been viciously fighting a horrible flu/sinus infection that has not only rendered me useless in the blogging world today, but also at home as well.
While I normally cook a good home cooked meal, my idea of cooking has been fast food for the last few days. In blogging there are no sick days, however I realize that it is better to not post then post something that makes no sense. I hate the WTF types of posts and refuse to do them. So thank you for baring with me and I will be medicated and back to my regularly scheduled blogging tomorrow!
Okay, totally not kidding about this and it is legitimate! Enter to win a free 2 year lease on the BMW X3! Not bad, huh? Being that I love German engineering, I knew that I had to try for this one! Plus on the enter screen, you get to customize what you like! Hello!!! This is amazing!
I would have to say that if I won this car, I would have a heyday in it! If you would like more info, on the BMW x3 make sure to check out the Top Gear review of it below!
The letter of the day is “C” and the number of the day is “6″! C is for comics, that’s good enough for me! 6 is the number of Sesame Street “heroes” featured on this awesome shirt!
The Sesame Six T-Shirt
While it’s not an actual comic book yet, I think it might have some potential! Oscar the Grouch looks pretty bad and Elmo as the Human Torch is pretty awesome too! It looks like Big Bird steps in as Mr. Fantastic and Cookie Monster is The Thing. I can’t wait to sport my shirt around town! AJ Paglia, the artist of this great t-shirt, had an idea to mash-up Sesame Street and the Fantastic Four.
While I was in the Christian book store yesterday, I ran across this amazing version of the bible: The Action Bible! The artwork was amazing and the story was fun to read! My six year old loves it and she finally understands the bible stories now! My 36 year old hubby wants a copy too! I feel that this bible is amazing in so many different ways: first for the visual person, it’s awesome to have pictures, secondly, it’s great for someone who is learning to read and lastly, what a great way to reach us comic book nerds!
I am currently working on scheduling a podcast with Sergio Cariello, the illustrator of The Action Bible. Sergio has worked for both DC Comics and Marvel as an illustrator (Batman and Daredevil to name a couple). I am really excited to talk to a fellow comic nerd and Christian! So make sure to check back for the podcast! If you want to know more about The Action Bible, check out this great video!
Well, today (Feb 3rd) is Elmo’s Birthday! So if you have little ones, make sure to head on over to celebrate! There are great games and coloring pages for the celebration! We are going to celebrate by watching Elmo today!
Enjoy a great interview with a classic Sesame Street character!
The makers of the Magic Bullet have released a new product, the Baby Bullet! This product rocks and I wish that I had it when I was making Sarah’s baby food! I had the old crank handle baby food maker!
I think this is a great baby gift for a organic style momma or anyone who wants to save money in the long run on baby food!
I have just started my SimplyFun games business and would love to host your party! Please contact me at krisy@mygeekvoice.com, I need 2 bookings in 20 days to make my goal and I am really hoping that you can help me with that! I can even show off the games at your event or MOM group as well! Thanks! For the month of January, you will receive double host awards!!!
Each week, I also plan on focusing on one game and reviewing it, if you like it and want to learn more, or purchase it, please contact me. The games are fun, educational and most can be played within 30 minutes. These games are great for family nights, homeschool learning or just plain fun! The thing that I like as well is that they are well constructed games and are fair market price! As someone who loves games to begin with I can’t wait for an excuse to come over and play games with you all.
My goals with this business is to eventually own a game store where people can come and have game nights in a fun and safe environment for families and kids and this step will help me with that goal, so please I ask that you help me reach my goals but booking a party or passing this on to someone who you think would like to have a SimplyFun party!
