Awesome creative outlet for your little one!



My kid just loves building stuff using all kinds of sets. And I dont limit him just to Legos and expose him to many different kinds of building sets. Latest that I added to his collection is Helicopter Take-A-Part Build Toy by Elf Star. We have been really happy with this new set!








Some details about this set:-


  • Limitless Fun: Allow curious minds to explore how pieces will work together to make a whole. 2 models can be built from this toy set.
  • Educational: Encourage creative and spatial thinking. Improve hand-eye coordination ability and problem-solving skills.
  • Ultra Safe: Non-toxic eco-friendly rubber fiber material. No sharp edges.
  • Durable: Flexible and sturdy parts. Put it up and take it apart as many time as needed.
  • Value: Fifty-seven (57) pieces including necessary tools. Parts and fasteners are oversized, made for small hands to manipulate.











My experience using the set:-



My kid (5.5YO) is big time into building blocks, and also has a big tool center with with toy size drill, hammer, screw driver, wrench etc and like to make things out of that. Once he starts with an activity, he can easily spend an hour or so with that. So when I saw this set, I knew that I have to get this for him. He already has 2 sets from Battat Take a Part and loves to take it apart and put them back together - this one is pretty much in the same area. So glad I got it for him as he will enjoy it similarly. He was able to put it together with little bit of help from my end as well. And really enjoyed building it. Over the course of next week, I helped him 2 more times and now he can pretty much do it by himself except for sometimes when he is not able to maneuver the wrench that effectively to open the screws. 
The set itself is made out of soft rubber type material - so no sharp corners. The quality looks good and the colors are bright. The fact that you can make more than one models from a set make it better than Battat take-a-part sets in my opinion.

It can be used for babies, toddlers,teens and adults. It measures by oral,rectal or axillary route. Rectal or axillary are better routes for babies and small children that can not hold it in their mouth.I use it for my whole family.its very durable and safe to use. You just turn it on by pushing the blue easy on/off button,then you use what route you are using then wait for the beep. If a fever is detected you will hear multiple beeps simultaneously.The easy read large LED screen will give you the accurate temperature. It also automatically shuts itself off after inactivity saving battery life. I found it to be exceptionally accurate in the readings.I just cleaned with an alcohol wipe but you could also use a disposable sheath. This is a must have in every medicine cabinet. Its portable also.you could take it with you in a diaper bag or with camping gear or purse.mine even came in a thick clear carry case to store and transport. I'll highly recommend the product.

Bluetooth Enabled, Light, Attractive and Easy to use weighing scale!

To keep my weigh in check, I decided to get weighing scale that tracks my weight over time in an app, so that I can be on top of the trends that I see. I researched the usual big name brands like Fitbit or Withings and also several other new ones. In the end I settled on this new release from Easy@home - Easy@Home Bluetooth Smart Scale.






Some features of the product:-



  • ✔ BLUETOOTH CONNECTION: Using Bluetooth LE technology, the scale seamlessly uploads the measurements to the corresponding App that can be downloaded on iOS or Android Smartphone or tablet (*** Please CHECK the supported iOS and Android devices in product description. HealthKit App integration are supported.***)
  • ✔ STYLISH AND ACCURATE: Measures body weight and BMI with high precision sensors in increments of 0.2 lb./0.1 kg; Modern, LED display
  • ✔ SAFE AND SMART: Reinforced, tempered glass top supports up to 400lbs; Smart step-on technology and auto shutdown allows for ease of use; Operated by 4 AA alkaline batteries (Included)
  • ✔ MOBILE APP: The EasyHomeScale App tracks and records every measurement for you; Creates tables, lists, and graph display options; Can store information for up to 10 users
  • ✔ SATISFACTION GUARANTEED: Satisfaction guaranteed with a 1-year warranty and support by a professional, technical team in US











My Expereince using the weighing scale



This scale does most of the useful things that Withings or Aria does for 1/2 the price and the app tracks all the scales readingst. It is very easy to setup and seems to weigh accurately. The bluetooth link seems to occasionally not communicate data immediately. It doesn't matter as when when it eventually does connect it dumps all the data it has failed to sync. I've found that the app must be launched before weighing to communicate and that it helps to exit the app and re-enter to get it to sync. The app also seems to occasionally not sharesome other readings with fitbit but this is easily rectified by simply turning the integration off and on again which causes it to re-dump all the information to fitbit. I don't know how much faith I have in the readings other than weight/body fat but I don't particularly use them for anything anyways. Overall this scale is an excellent product for a great price and despite not being flawless (probably all app issues) it is the best option I've found. I'll highly recommend the product. I received this product at promotional price in return of my honest unbiased review - this is my honest review after extensively using the product. Would recommend regardless.

Perfect set up for automatic light in any corner of the house!



I like working in my kitchen and use the counter space a lot for prepping for cooking etc. However, the positioning of the lights on the ceiling is such that the are under the cabinets is pretty dark and not perfect for working. So I got these BYB Built-in Rechargeable Wireless Motion Sensor LED Night Light from Amazon and have been really happy with the result!





More information on the product:-



  • ★ BUILT-IN RECHARGEABLE LITHIUM BATTERY: No need to waste money on AAA batteries!  The built-in lithium battery provides 4 hours of continuous light.  The unit can last up to 2 months in "auto" mode (so it comes on only when motion is detected).  When the power gets low, just connect it to a USB port with the included Micro USB cable.
  • ★ HIGH QUALITY MOTION SENSOR AND WIDE COVERAGE: The light comes on when you are within 3 meters of the unit, and will go out 15 seconds after you walk away.
  • ★ EASY TO INSTALL: You have multiple options for mounting this light.  Included with the unit are a built-in magnet, 3M adhesive tape, screws and mounting holes.
  • ★ ULTRA BRIGHT: 6 LEDs provide 100 lumens of light.  And the LED technology helps keep power consumption low, which means more lighting with less charging.
  • ★ ENVIRONMENT FRIENDLY & LONG LIFESPAN: The LEDs bulbs last up to 75 years.  And thanks to the rechargeable battery, there's no need to worry about removing and replacing batteries.



My experience using the product:-





Impressed with how bright the light is! It was easy to set up....I am using it under my kitchen cabinet for some extra light on to the back of the countertop. I only needed to use the adhesive strip although it does comes with screws also if you prefer to mount it. I wasnt sure I wanted to keep it there so the adhesive option allows you to move it easily if you decide to. You simply slip the light portion in to the holder and make sure you pay attention to where the on/off button is when you mount it so that it will be easy to operate. It has 3 settings- ON, OFF, and AUTO. ON is for continuous light. AUTO is for the motion sensor light setting. It works great! When on the auto mode it will not turn on automatically in the daytime, as it must sense there is enough light. But when natural light is low or dark it will turn on when it senses motion near it. I can simply walk by and it turns on. Its a nice bit of helpful light when I walk through the kitchen at night. It saves me from having to turn on all the kitchen lights when I dont need them all so this is definitely energy saving! It also gives me more light whenever I need it on to my countertop....very helpful!! Its a nice size and I was impressed how much light it gives off for its size. I highly recommend this and want another one myself for my stairway to keep from turning on the lights when going up and down at night. I'll highly recommend the product. I received this product at promotional price in return of my honest unbiased review - this is my honest review after extensively using the product. Would recommend regardless.

Great toy that really helps the kids to use their creativity!


This is a toy that I really love - so do my kids and so does my husband! This is the Magnetic Tile Building set by A Mustard Seed Toys!





More information on the Magnetic tiles by A Mustard Tiles






  • Increase intelligence; toys teach magnetism, color and shape recognition, building, coordination, and patterns during construction
  • Magnetic building set pieces stick together for easy cleanup, compact storage, and are less likely to clutter your home than wooden blocks
  • Easy building for prekindergarten toddlers (3+) and older kids; rare-earth magnets make these tiles position themselves
  • Excellent value, enjoy for years as you add tiles and structures get larger
  • No more Lego museums, kids discover it's fun to knock our magnetic tiles down and play with again!





My experience using the tiles:-




Really it's a magic for children. You won't regret buying this toy. There is a lot of play value for all ages. My 11 month old and my 4 year old can play with these together, and I like to play with them too. There is just so much you can do with these, the possibilities are almost endless. You can use them as intended, and build impressive things with them, or you can play with them like really cool magnets. The kids also got a bead maze and they hang these all over the bead maze, like decorating a Christmas tree. I also like that it’s super easy to clean them up since they all stick together. This was gifted to us, and I'm really happy with it. I don't think I would have thought to buy this myself because my son isn't much into building things, but the magnetic quality of them makes it fun and easy to build. He's learning shapes in Pre-K, and this is a good way for him to explore flat and 3D shapes.  I'll highly recommend the product. I received this product at promotional price in return of my honest unbiased review - this is my honest review after extensively using the product. Would recommend regardless.
