Seeing the Tinker Bell Magic Glow Fairy in the package brought a smile to my face. It’s cute, I know Zoe would love it but she doesn’t need anymore toys and I am forcing myself to give more of my reviews to charity than to keep myself. So I’m not going to open it.

Tinker Bell’s Disney Fairies Video Contest And Costume #giveaway

January 14, 2010 by Momstart 357 Comments

Tinker Bell and the Disney Fairies are known for their diverse personalities and talents. To celebrate the recent DVD launch and Disney Channel television premiere of the newest Disney Fairies movie, Tinker Bell and the Lost Treasure, Disney Consumer Products is inviting all little girls to discover their fairy talent by creating a video with a parent to showcase their talent in the most creative way possible. All videos can be posted to www.youtube.com/disneyliving now through January 24, 2010, and one will be selected to win two Disney Fairies collector dolls (click here for complete Terms of Use & Rules http://tinyurl.com/y9dt8kc).

It’s easier than it looks:

To Enter the You Tube Giveaway you need to create a video with your child illustrating a “fairy” talent. I bet however, that it could be any talent whatsoever.

In honor of this giveaway, Disney sent me a box of Disney Tinker Bell Fairy Supplies. I divided it up into three categories. One dress for Zoe

A Disney Fairies Playmates doll and a Jakks role play costumes to help get the creative ideas flowing for a Fairy Flicks video. There is posted a video on our YouTube page as a sample: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6APXjgu7yIs. The Costume is a size 3+

Then the final split is a donation I’ll be giving to charity. It includes a Tinker Bell Baby Pook-A-Looz. It’s available exclusively right now at Toys R Us with seven characters including Tinker Bell. There will be about 30 characters later this Spring at Toys R Us and Disney Store. and a Disney Fairies Playmates doll.

To Enter for the costume and doll:

Jakks Pacific Candy Bead Studio Donation and #giveaway

October 31, 2009 by Momstart 264 Comments

Jakks Pacific Candy Bead Studio would make a great gift for someone that has a strong will against candy. I couldn’t open this one and review it before donating it because I would have eaten all the candy and then it would not have made a very good donation.

I can tell you I love candy beaded necklaces.

Jakks Pacific Sent me this and the other toys that I have reviewed to be donated in the Toy Drive that I am heading up with Bloggers Give. Here are two other reviews I have done for them.

What do Toys R Us, Disguise, and Disney all have in common? #giveaway

October 4, 2009 by Momstart 770 Comments

It’s Halloween Costumes for the right price. No wait, it’s even better. Toys“R”Us will carry an expanded assortment of exclusive Disney-themed Halloween costumes for boys, girls and babies to highlight the good works of Children Affected by AIDS Foundation (CAAF). To showcase their continued support of CAAF in its mission to provide assistance to children affected by HIV/AIDS in the United States and around the world, Toys“R”Us, Inc. and DCP made a joint contribution of $50,000 to kick off the 2009 costume program. I love supporting companies that are giving to the world.

Beginning in September, an expanded line of 25 costumes based on popular Disney characters can be found at Toys“R”Us and Babies“R”Us stores and online at Toysrus.com, including beautifully crafted costumes resembling Disney Princess characters, Disney●Pixar Toy Story’s “Buzz Lightyear” and “Woody”, Power Rangers, Winnie-the-Pooh and Tigger, and Disney Fairies’ “Tinker Bell.” The number of costumes included in this unique program doubles the offering from last year, and each bears a recognizable hangtag featuring the CAAF logo and a united mission statement from both companies.

You can find these special costumes in stores by their identifying tags. Online it’s even easier, just head to www.toysrus.com/exclusivecostumes. This year, CAAF will also highlight these costumes in a series of print and broadcast public service announcements that feature CAAF’s national spokesperson Jamie Lee Curtis, and promote the organization’s signature Dream Halloween^® events, of which the Toys“R”Us Children’s Fund and Disney Consumer Products are longtime benefactors.

Now, Toys R Us is sending me a boys size 3 costume to giveaway and since I have no idea what it will be or if I will be able to get it to you on time for Halloween, I’ve decided to keep it and provide one of my readers with a 25.00 Gift Card to use at Toys R Us.

Style Six Screen Print by JAKKS Pacific Review

October 1, 2009 by Momstart 3 Comments

For the Creative girl in your house that is all about fashion. I know all about having a girl that fashion just seems to come naturally too. She’s been a fashionista since she was 18 months old, maybe even younger. She has always loved accessories like hats and sunglasses. Oh and shoes of course.

I was not able to let my daughter play with the Style Six Silk Screener that Jakks Pacific sent us to review because it’s recommended for ages 8 plus and we can’t leave her brother out even if I was brave enough to let her roll the paint on. There are small parts and he still puts things in his mouth. It’s simple enough to do. Just place fabric on the clamshell, place the stencil plate on top, and roll on the paint. Create cool tees by layering on graphics or create custom patterns to make your own unique piece.

Girls can express themselves by customizing their look and expression a unique sense of style. Silk screening is something i know nothing about, but it is very easy with Style Six. With a simple roll-on paint tool you can easily design graphics with many different colors. So you basically have limitless potential with it.

Style Six Silk Screener

Product Features

Includes 2 silk Screen device
Comes with 4 different fabric paint bottles
Includes 1 paint blotter, 1 paint roller, 1 masking board, 1 supply tray, 1 rolling tray
8 stencils

My Christmas Guide Recommendations:

Ages: 8 +
Mostly Girls
Gift, a bit big for a stocking

Price Range – 20.00 to 100.00 (basic to deluxe)
Sold at Wal-Mart and Toys R Us and Amazon

Boys Christmas idea GX Racers by JAKKS Pacific Review

September 29, 2009 by Momstart Leave a Comment

I was sent GX Racers 360 Spinway from JAKKS Pacific to review on Mom Start. I liked it so much that I have added it to my Christmas Gift Guide for 2009. It reminds me of another toy that runs on track only. This one shoots off and runs on any surface because it goes so fast. It’s a big treat for boys little and big (dad’s). My son just absolutely loves cars, all cars and trucks or anything that goes weeeeeee. GX Racers fall into that category.

.
JAKKS Pacific just unveiled the all new GX Racers line of vehicles and skateboards capable of producing unheard of speed and stunts. I never noticed this product before I received it in the mail, and now I noticed that you can find it at Target. WOW. I’m sure you can find it at other stores and know you can find it on-line.

All of the cars, skateboards and other items they make for the Spinway are powered by GX GYROS which can race up to 600 scale MPH. There’s another WOW.

I did a very careful review of the 360 Spinway from JAKKS Pacific so that I could donate it for Christmas to my MOMS Club. We’re collecting items for quite a few different charities from now until the end of the year. In January we’ll be doing Birthday packs for the Food Bank.

GX Racers offer many more products. They have a super cool GX Turbo Launcher for even faster speeds, the GX Super Jump with over 7 ft of track and the GX Skate toys that provide hours of amusement as children re-create different skate tricks.

My Christmas Guide Recommendations:

Ages: 5 years to adult.
Boys and Girls
Stocking Stuffer and actual present.
