Hide Your Sheep, Spyro Reignited Trilogy is Now Available Worldwide!

 

 

Available worldwide, Spyro Reignited Trilogy lets players rediscover the adventure and exploration found in the classic games, but with a modern level of detail and control.  Spyro, the iconic purple dragon that entertained living rooms worldwide in the late ‘90s, has made an epic return, and Spyro fans everywhere couldn’t be happier.  In this fully remastered game collection you’ll find a re-imagined cast of characters, animations and environments as well as brand-new lighting and recreated cinematics…all in stunning HD!

 

 

In the Spyro Reignited Triology, Spryo fans everywhere will rejoice to see an all scaled-up version of the original three Spyro games that started it all, Spyro the Dragon, Spyro 2: Ripto’s Rage! and Spyro: Year of the Dragon, but with a modern-day feel that makes it fresh and fun for today’s player.  Longtime fans will be treated to Toys For Bob’s reimagined version of the classic soundtracks, in addition to an all-new title-screen theme from original soundtrack composer Stewart Copeland. Additionally, the new game brings an in-game audio feature that allows players to switch between the original and the newly remastered soundtracks, for those who want a more classic gameplay experience.

 

 

If you’ve been a long-time Spyro fan like myself, you will really appreciate every little detail that went into remastering these games.  It seems as though every inch of every single thing in the game was gone over with a fine tooth comb to give the best possible results any fan could possibly want.  What I really love the most is how true to original this trilogy is.  While it’s SUPER fun for my husband and I to play while we reminisce about ‘the good old days’, it’ also nice seeing my children take an interest in something I loved so much when I was younger.  As if the remastering of the trilogy wasn’t cool enough, Spyro consumer products across apparel, collectibles, figurines and more are now available at retailers worldwide!  What better way to spoil that Spyro lover in your life than with some cool Spyro gear?

 

While the trilogy is already available at an amazing price, I’ve seen it EVEN LOWER at some of these Black Friday sales.  Keep your eyes peeled while you’re shopping and pick up the coolest trilogy out right now, Spyro Reignited Trilogy!

The STASH Folding Kids Chair Is Here Just In Time For The Holidays!

 

 

This holiday season, are you looking for a unique gift for those lucky little ones on your shopping list?  What better gift than something that’s beautiful, comfortable, functional, and also serves multiple purposes?  The Uncaged Furniture STASH Kids Folding Chair is the perfect gift that kids everywhere will fall in love with.  Now they can sit comfortably to watch movies or hang out with friends.

 

 

I really love the modern design of this kids chair.  The design fits well into any room and doesn’t take up too much space (which is perfect for my daughter’s crowded and over-run room).  While the chair I chose is black in color, it’s also available in pink and blue to fit into just about any decor no matter what the theme of the room is.

 

 

Children’s rooms everywhere are over-run with old toys and stuffed animals that little ones just refuse to let go of just yet.  The STASH chair helps alleviate some of the clutter with the cool seat that opens up to reveal a super cool storage compartment.  I have been pleasantly surprised by the amount of storage space that this chair has to offer.  My daughter has a miniature mountain of small stuffed animals that she doesn’t play with often but won’t let go of yet.  They have had nowhere to go and are always all over her room making a mess.  This chair has held every one of those stuffed animals and has TONS more room to add even more.

 

 

As if this chair didn’t have enough to offer yet, it also folds down into an ottoman for a great foot rest or a casual place for little ones or their friends to sit down.  My daughter always has to have her favorite emoji blankets folded nice and neatly, and the ottoman has come in handy for setting them on top for her to grab before she raises the back and sits in the chair.  Comfy emoji blanket + comfy chair = best movie experience ever!

 

This holiday shopping season make sure you check out the Uncaged Furniture STASH Kids Chair for all the lucky littles on your shopping list!

Zoom Tubes Car Trax Are The Perfect Addition To Any Kid’s Christmas List

 

 

With Christmas just around the corner, I’m sure we’ve all got a few lucky little ones on our shopping list but have no idea where to start.  If you’ve got a kiddo to shop for who likes cars, race tracks, or even just customizing toys for endless fun, Zoom Tubes Car Trax is definitely the way to go.

 

 

While there are a number of toy car options out there, there is absolutely nothing like Zoom Tubes Car Trax.  Most toy car tracks come with flat, boring pieces that snap together in the same boring way.  Zoom Tubes is made of clear tubes that can be connected together to make just about any crazy track you can come up with.  The super-cool race car lights up as it zooms through the tubes creating a strobe effect as it flies through the clear tube track.  While there is assembly required, it’s really easy for many young kids to do on their own.  My daughter is 7 and she was able to put all of the pieces together herself and was able to continuously change the track with ease.  I haven’t seen a toy hold her attention for that long in a LONG time, and she typically isn’t very impressed by cars or race tracks.

 

 

Inside the Zoom Tube Car Trax box you’ll find:
  • Blue Rechargeable Car
  • Remote Control (Battery Operated)
  • USB Cord (For Charging the Car)
  • Straight Tube With Door
  • 3 Straight Tubes
  • 8 Curved Tubes
  • 12 Connectors

 

 

There are also expansion kits available to make the possibilities virtually endless.  Make sure you check out Zoom Tubes for all the car-loving littles on your holiday shopping list.

Back To School Fashion Made Easy With Lugz

 

 

 

If you’re the parent of a teen like me, chances are you find back to school shopping dreadful when it comes time to pick out new clothes and shoes.  My teen is picky to say the least, and until I started buying him Lugz, it was a nightmare to even come close to finding a pair of shoes he liked, or would even tolerate.  We have been relying on Lugz for our back to school shopping for the past few years and it has made the whole BTS shopping ordeal a million times easier and more convenient.  Lugz has so many styles to choose from there is something every kid will love no matter what their style is.  What’s even better is that they are some of the most durable shoes around so you won’t be having to buy a new pair a couple months down the road…unless their feet grow, of course!

 

 

One thing that my son really enjoys about Lugz is that there are ALWAYS new styles and colors to choose from, so every time we look for new shoes there are cool new shoes he’s never even seen before.  This year my son found the Canyon Mid shoes and just HAD to have them.  Aren’t they some sexy shoes?  These shoes have been a HUGE hit with my son and all of his friends, which makes my son love his shoes even more because now all of his friends want a pair.  Living in a rural area means a considerable walk to even the closest bus stop.  The comfort provided by these sneakers far surpasses mine and my son’s expectations of them.  No achy feet, no back aches, and the durable sole has shown no signs of wear yet which is a HUGE bonus in my book.

PRODUCT DETAILS:

  • Durabrush Upper
  • Padded tongue and collar
  • Cushioned insole
  • Vulcanized construction
  • Durable rubber outsole

 

If you’re totally in love with these shoes like my son was, you can find them in three colors on the Lugz website to make your back to school shoe shopping as flawless and easy as mine is this year.
