How stinking cute is this breakfast in bed set from American Girl? Complete with heart shaped waffles, a little breakfast tray, syrup container, fork, fabric napkin – embellished with a heart – and of course a sweet mini Valentine card.

Take a video tour of the American Girl Breakfast in Bed set here:
Mom’s Thoughts:
I bought this set for Kenzie, my 6 year old daughter, for Christmas. We love it! Yes, at $28 this is pricey but obviously anything that is officially American Girl is not easy on the wallet. We were happy with the value given the total cuteness and the imaginative play this Bed in Breakfast set offers for kids plus it looks like a cute decor item when not in use and just sitting on her doll table in her bedroom.
It works! The dolls fit perfectly under the tray for playtime as well when you want to pretend to actually feed your doll breakfast in bed which means this toy is actually FUNCTIONAL versus so many random toys that come into our house that are ultimately somewhat useless as they are cute to look at but don’t work.
A little girl’s view:
Kenzie adores it. She uses the set to serve up breakfast in bed and is very impressed with the Valentine. Plus, this set is just another addition to our “pantry” of play food so both Kenzie and her brother are now serving up these American Girl waffles to all their stuffed animals and to each other too!
Look for a American Girl Breakfast in Bed Set on eBay - maybe you'll get lucky and find a great bargain!

There’s a new kid on the block when it comes to building tools for toddlers. Playskool just introduced a line of
Wow. Make that a double Wow. The new Leapfrog Tag Reading system is incredible. Truly unbelievable. Much to our total surprise, Leapfrog sent the starter Tag "touch reading system" to us last week. The Leapfrog Tag, geared for children ages 4-9 is totally appropriate for our Mackenzie, a very verbal preschooler at almost age 3. We’ve never seen her take to a toy or learning to read in such an immediate and excited manner. Honestly, as parents, we both felt like watching her use the Tag was like literally WATCHING the learning right before our very eyes. The Tag looks like a giant pen and basically has a tiny optical reader – which looks like a penpoint. This talking pen enables children to read books and play games and answer questions, and play games throughout the stories. This toy fosters independence and a love of reading – along with helping kids learn to read. I’ve always loved Leapfrog’s toys, but this learning system goes above and beyond ANY expectations I’d have ever imagined. If your child has an early interest in reading – or you are trying to foster that skill, I encourage you to run and buy this product now or put it on your holiday gift list. The initial kit comes with 1 book but you can buy additional stories to go along with your Tag pen for $14. Titles include favorite characters like Diego or Disney Princess – along with classics like Chicka Chicka Boom Boom. For more information, click

Check out this line of eco friendly toys I discovered on the web! The line of Sprig Toy Adventure vehicles are not only eco-friendly, they are totally cool. Made from bio-composite material derived from recycled wood and reclaimed plastic, they are totally kid-powered. This Discover Rig converts from a walking toy to a push toy and doesn’t need any batteries. I’m digging the idea of an eco-friendly toy with no batteries – cause not only will you save money and help the environment – Mom and Dad will be spared the insanity caused by the ringing, beeping and musical chaos of plastic battery powered toys!

I’ve always been a fan of Kaloo, a celeb favorite as well, so I was thrilled when they announced Kaloo Naturel.

If your child is like mine, it goes everywhere and having the convenience of machine washing and drying without worrying about it being ruined, is important! For more information, click
We don’t have this Spooky House but I wish we did! I’ve reviewed Twinkle Kids products in the past and am impressed with their quality, originality, and the wonder of a toy that is NOT made of plastic! This Spooky House is totally gorgeous as a decoration with the added benefit of doubling as an exciting Halloween Toy for the kids. The kit includes over 100 spooky felt decorations that will magically stick to the house. Ghosts, leaves, pumpkins, and even bones! Classy Mommy Approved. For more information, click
Like any preschooler, Kenzie loves cupcakes so this toy is a hit. Thanks to Jakks Pacific and Walmart for letting us review this little girl Cupcake Maker which is being touted as one of Walmart’s 12 Toys of Christmas. A perfect gift for the girl who has it all that just might need to whip up and ice their own personal cupcake. You can imagine Kenzie had a field day with this one. At age 3, my parental supervision and direction was paramount for success. However, it is no secret to those who already know me that I apparently lack the Domestic Diva gene. My tip for all you future cupcake chefs would be to read the directions carefully unlike me! Should be very easy – add water and stir the mix, microwave cupcake mix to cook, whip up icing in a bowl, and then ice your divine treat using the Gourmet Cupcake Maker.On our first batch, I cooked the "ICING" instead of the cake mix in the microwave. The results were a disaster although Kenzie was so excited with my "cooked" icing the first time she even ate as much of this hard flat plastic type cupcake as was humanly possible. My results did not curb her enthusiasm, but she suggested Daddy try to help us with the next batch at which point I realized my idiotic mistake. Once we did it the right way, Mackenzie was delighted! And today for her 3rd Birthday, she’d prefer we’d make 24 individual cupcakes in the microwave with her cupcake kit and ice them with her Gourmet cupcake maker than do it the old fashioned way.A great stocking stuffer would be the cupcake refills for only $12. Flavors include red velvet, chocolate, yellow, and cinnamon sugar; the frostings are chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, and cream cheese flavored. And the cupcakes really do taste delicious!
