My Review:
My kiddos were so thrilled to get this package! My 4 yr old is the world’s biggest Lightning McQueen Fan so when he saw the patio set he was sooo excited! I was very pleasantly surprised to see all the toys made by JAKKS Pacific. They set it up in the house and have been enjoying it daily ever since. JAKKS Pacific makes so many items that my kids would love to have like Disney items, Club Penguin, Cabbage Patch Kids & lots more!

My tip for keeping my kids entertained is my sensory tub. It’s a clear tub with either oats, beans, rice, sand, etc. in it as well as cups, spoons, and odds and ends to play with. They usually keep it pretty much in the tub, but I put a plastic table cloth under it to catch any spills. They could play with that for hours!

Since we’re in the process of trying to sell our house so we can move to the city my husband is currently in (working), I have all 3 kids draw pictures, “write” letters and send him these letters. They concentrate on their work so hard and are so quiet, I usually schedule these times when I have an hour long class to teach online. Total silence! 🙂

Spend quality time with your kids earlier in the day so when you need some time to yourself they are satisfied (their love tanks are full) and they are more likely to go and play well together or on their own.
Sadly, TV is the only way my little kids will sit for 5 minutes!
