Max Flex RC glow in the dark racers by Skullduggery!

October 1, 2018 Dream Team Family2 Comments

Cars… a classic toy.. am I right??

Well this set is anything but classic, but in a good way of course! This set sure steps it up!

Skullduggery, the mind behind this madness, has launched an RC racing set. Not only does the track and cars glow in the dark, but the track is flexible for endless play and set ups!

My 5 year old had this set up going so many different ways, it was awesome! My boys tend to get really frustrated if something is hard or challenging to put together, so this was really an easy set for them to figure out. The tracks also have connectors so they can connect to just about any other brand of track, which is super super cool!

Over 25ft of track and two RC cars with controllers for each. These things REALLY zoom, I was shocked!

Each controller takes 4 AA batteries and there is a charging cord on top of the controller so you can charge the rc cars. You can also control the speed on the controllers, either pull down hard to zoom super fast around the track, or tap lightly and just sit back and enjoy the slow paced type of racing! Ha!

This awesome set retails for $99.00 and can be found on their website. They also have other RC sets as well! You can check them out here.

You should check out our full video review to see this set in action:

Doorables and Snackables Num Noms Snow Cones!

September 11, 2018September 11, 2018 Dream Team Family4 Comments

The things these toy companies come up with!

We have started a toy carnival series on our channel and I just LOVE picking out all of these different toys for it! In this video we used Doorables and Num Noms Snow Cone.

Look at how cute and fun they are!

We got Elsa! Isn’t she sooo cute! Look at her eyes!!

And.. Goofy!! Ahh his face! These are definitely adorbs.. and they are flying off the shelves at every store we have been too! Hope we can get our hands on some more.

They have small blind boxes that come with two characters ( we got that one), bigger packs and even playsets!

The small pack we got was right around $4 at Walmart. I LOVE that we can get toys for under $5.

Ok, so the Num Nom Snackables Snow Cone.. SUPER messy.. but so so fun! We did this outside so the cleanup was easy! Princess Toy Review gave us some advice and mentioned when doing these inside to place a place underneath.. GREAT idea! Cleanup was a breeze! (We did a few more after the video inside because the boys loved them so much!)

Selma’s Dolls! Dolls and Diversity!

September 8, 2018October 4, 2018 Dream Team Family4 Comments

Diversity. It’s what makes up the world, am I right? It should always be a good thing, sometimes the world makes it a bad thing.. but the Mom’s behind these dolls are making sure it’s a great thing!

Could a little girl named Selma change the way people think about others who may look different from them? Her mother, Valerie Alva-Ruiz, created Selma’s Dolls ($39.99) in partnership with fellow mom Courtney Stillwagon to mirror the beauty within every religion, culture and physical and mental disability.

The debut collection of Selma’s Dolls features ragdolls Annie, Lola and Ameena. The dolls are made for children ages 2 and up as a way to introduce the beauty of differences through play. Via the storybook, parents can teach their children that differences are special and lead to friendship and understanding. And ultimately those differences lead to wonder and acceptance.

The mompreneurs behind Selma’s Dolls were corporate colleagues in Atlanta, GA. As they chatted about work and children, “we realized our little girls’ ragdolls didn’t reflect the world around them,” explained Stillwagon. Recognizing a gap in the marketplace, they decided to start their own company (while keeping their day jobs!) with the mission of teaching children to love, appreciate and embrace differences. They worked quickly, hiring plush industrial designers to create a prototype and working through several iterations to perfect color, texture, size and safety specifications.

The charming results are Annie who wears a blue and yellow butterfly dress pattern to represent awareness for people with Down syndrome. Lola wears a Mexican-inspired print that’s a nod to Alva-Ruiz’s heritage. And lovely Ameena wears the color green, as green has a number of traditional associations and meanings in Islam.

Write up by Selma Dolls.

I love what these dolls stand for and the details they have.

They are super cuddly and soft, super easy to clean and just the right size for small hands.

Each doll comes with a book about Selma starting her first day at school. She is worried about being different but comes to see that everyone is different but that our differences are what makes us..US!

You can purchase these sweet dolls on Amazon via their website.

I’m hoping they come out with the Selma doll and some more story books!

PAWtastic Paw Patrol Pop Up Garage and Ultimate Fire Truck from Spin Master!

September 4, 2018October 14, 2018 Dream Team Family5 Comments

Paw Patrol, Paw Patrol be there on the double!

This song rings through my head a lot, especially here lately! Spin Master, YES SPIN MASTER, sent us this awesome PAWtastic set up..and AHH.. just look …!

My son was SOO excited about it! LOOK at this firetruck and LOOK at the pop up garage! The garage is soo fun, not sure how long it will last being that it’s cardboard, but so far so good!

The Ultimate Fire Truck is super huge. It comes with Marshall and a smaller vehicle that he can sit in. The fire truck has a pull out grabber, pull out hose and even a small ladder. It also has stabilizers on each side that pull out, just like a real fire truck! Makes sounds and has lights and even shoots out water balls (plastic ones) on two sides and the ladder on the very top extends out pretty far! You can fit 6 pups on this awesome truck.

We found some smaller pups at the dollar tree to use as a game in our video, so keep in mind those do not come with the fire truck.

The ultimate garage is cool, not only can Baby A fit under and in it, but the huge fire truck can be stored in there as well.

Aww.. and our Skye! ( Yes, her real name is Skye!) She was part of this video as well. She did soo good! She saved the day in our video 😉

Just the scale of this truck is amazing.

My son really does love this truck. So does my 4 and 5 year old!

The Ultimate Fire Truck retails for about $60 at Amazon and other stores. As for the pop up garage, I am not sure if this is something that’s going to be available for purchase. I sure hope so! If you are interested in knowing, comment below and I will get in touch with Spin Master to find out.

Check out more about the Ultimate Fire Truck here.

You can purchase this awesome set here.

Again, a HUGE thank you to Spin Master! We sure love pups around here 😉

Boxy Girls Minis! Unbox With New Small Boxy Girls! Fun Shipping Box Surprises

August 15, 2018 Dream Team Family1 Comment

Yay! So we won a prize from Boxy Girls!

We received the same type of box when we first reviewed them, but it was a teaser box. THIS time is was the real thing and it’s sooo cute! Not sure if it’s been released yet, but here it is:

LOOK how cute she is! Love the clothes and shoes. They are super easy to dress, so that’s great for little hands.

This one looks like Brooklyn.. but I am not too sure.

Now these boxes are a lot small than the ones that come with the larger doll. They are JUST the right size for the smaller doll. I am assuming that these will retail for less, but it’s just a guess!

The little doll came in a longer box, and the smaller boxes were in some longer boxes as well and all of those came in the square box in the above picture.. so so cute!

You can check out our other post about the larger dolls here.

You can see the size comparison here. I LOVE the larger ones, but the smaller ones are super cute as well.

Way to many toys! Wait….did I actually say that?

July 20, 2018July 20, 2018 Dream Team FamilyLeave a comment

Yes, I just said that..way to many toys, with more to come!

I find it so hard to film with 3 small boys, even though I SO love it and so do they. I am way behind in filming and need to get my schedule back in place.

I am totally embarrassed to show this, but this is real life.. and it’s messy. Looks kinda like a junk draw but more of a throw all place!

I keep saying I’m going to get it together, but with a very small space it’s so hard! Look at all of those boxes full of toys to review. Ugh and my broken iPad I tried to fix, but just made worse to were it won’t even power on now!

Ah.. and my train table. I have SO much stuff for my Thomas channel but no were to put it, so there is all is ha! I have a huge storage cubby shelf thing my sister gave me from Ikea that I will be using… well once we buy a house! I can’t fit anything else into our room right now!

So many other things I need to sort through! I have games that were sent to us several months ago that we still haven’t played!

I did have a filming schedule each week before we left for NYC, (this worked out great btw), but gee, it takes all day just to film a few videos! I was filming every Wednesday in-between working from home. My Niece would watch Baby A, which was awesome, and then I would film for our main channel with Zieke and LJ.

Every so often my Niece would watch all three or my Mom would watch the older two so I could film for my Thomas channel. I think one day I did 7 videos in one day! It was insane, but I was trying to get all caught up before our big trip.

Oh gee, this angle is even worse.. now I definitely do not want to post this! HA!

This is why we need an extra room or a basement when we move. I dream of having a studio/filming room!

I have at least 5 companies sending me items to review, one of which I have to post by August 5th, plus a few I already have received, plus the ones from Sweet Suite, PLUS all the other ones I have had for awhile! I am more stressed now after actually typing it all out! So, I guess I need to get busy!

Sweet Suite Swag Box full of toys! It has arrived!

July 19, 2018July 20, 2018 Dream Team FamilyLeave a comment

17 POUNDS…. Of PURE HAPPINESS!

Ahh! We decided to open it up with All.. Three.. Boys….!! It wasn’t as bad as I thought it was going to be. We had some small fights and fits.

(We are trying to teach them about sharing, which btw, isn’t going so well!)

We had to open it outside because our house still isn’t all put together from being away so long! (In case you WERE wondering, I DID get all the laundry done, well cleaned at least, ..in huge pile in our utility room, Ha!)

Look at this squishy! Ah! We haven’t had one this big before and it’s SUPER squishy and slow rising!

We looked through everything but a lot I put back for future videos! I know, I know.. but that trip costed a pretty penny, so I need these for individual videos!

This Mic Guy looks so fun! It’s a 2 in 1 wireless microphone and bluetooth speaker! How fun is this going to be!

This! Ah! This is by Moose Toys and it looks so fun! You have to dig out your surprise collector toys!

I LOVE Squishies! This one was SUPER cute! Check out our video to see it!

Oh and SLIME! I’m not a fan of slime, because it’s super messy and the boys got it all over Skye when we first got her.. and yea.. I’ll stop there.. BUT they do love it. So we keep it in one area of the house now! This is Frozen Treats Slime and they have scents too! Ok, so this DOES have me intrigued!

I couldn’t get pictures fast enough! 3 sets of hand were everywhere!

DIY Bath bombs! Ah! Something boyish! I Love it! Can’t wait to try these.

Score! Water bottle! Love these freebies!

This game looks super cute. I love seeing all these creative games!

Aw! A fingerling plushy that talks! Super cute and pink!

Now this was cool, it was like a squishy with in a plush!

Beaker Creatures! I think its like a bath ball and you submerge into the water to reveal a collectors creature. Super fun!

LOOK as all of this! There was so much stuff! Love that float, we got some nail decals, oh and look at the Five Nights at Freddys set!

This movie and plush doggy! Too cute! Zieke ended up sleeping with him that night.

It all unfolding!!

Cupcake dolls! We had those when I was a little girl!!

A cup holder float.. and then if you mention Bestway you get a full size one! Ah! How fun!

Aw their faces.. I think they were fighting over something here.. My boys 🙂

I have never seen Harry Potter, so not sure, but I think this is a wand, super cute!

Look at this little cute science kit!

Molecules floam! Super moldable!

So this is what I ended up putting back for later! (even though the boys did go back to grab more out!) We have at least a months full of videos in this box!

It was so generous of all these companies to send out these samples! I can’t wait to start filming again! BIG thank you to all of them and for Sweet Suite inviting us to attend! I can’t wait for next year!

Sweet Suite Toy Swag Box!

July 18, 2018 Dream Team FamilyLeave a comment

It’s here!! I’m super excited to get this opened!

I only had the boomerang clip of the box from Facebook! I could have went into my room to get a picture of it, but the boys follow me everywhere and didn’t want to start something now! Ha!

Did I mention we are actually Home “HOME” now! Ha! Long story, but our electric was out and it took over a week to get it back on.

I didn’t realize how much work was involved once the electric goes out! My fridge was covered in mold so I had to clean and then clean some more. I did some major speed cleaning last night when we got into our house around 6pm. But at least I was able to get my laundry (mostly) caught up. (I still think little elves leave dirty laundry when we are sleeping!).

SO everything is FINALLY getting sorted out to a more “Norm” life. We just now have to go get Skye (Our dog) from my Sister In Laws and then we will be all set… well until we find a house to buy.. then that’s another adventure waiting to unfold ha!

Sweet Suite Follow ups and Grandpa Joe’s Candy Buffet for $1!

July 17, 2018July 17, 2018 Dream Team FamilyLeave a comment

It’s done! I was so afraid I wouldn’t follow up with this but I did! I have tons of contacts from the Sweet Suite and I followed up with everyone! YAY!

Look at all of these flyers!!

..and of of these BUSINESS CARDS! EEK! I handed out over 50 business cards! So strange to have business cards for YouTube channels, but my friend over at Tubey Toys said to get some made (which I got for free on Vista Print!) and I did!

I am already getting an overwhelming amount of responses, (just a few really, but still overwhelming as I don’t get many as it is) even a few that reached out before I did! I already have a few companies sending out products to review. So I am SUPER excited.

We also have our SWEET SUITE SWAG BOX that is supposed to be arriving TODAY! EEK! It’s 17 POUNDS! Now THAT will be a video to film! May not have all three boys open it though, it would end up like a pack of wolfs fighting for food!

It took about 30 mins to reach out to everyone, which wasnt bad at all. I was really stressing over nothing ha, but I am one that likes to get things done by a certain time.

During this time, I told the boys if they were good we would go to Grandpa Joe’s Candy Shop. They had they $5 candy buffet boxes for only $1 today!

My nephew went with us, so the trip was even more special! It took about 30 mins to drive there, but it was still worth it! Even Mommy B took a break from her diet to grab a box!

Alright, got to go. We still haven’t been back to our house yet due to unfornuate event, but hopefully later today we will! Which means.. more work.. but hey, at least we will be home! Ha!

Surprise Snack Box Swap!

July 7, 2018 Dream Team FamilyLeave a comment

Did you check this out yet? Ahh! This was SUPER cool and such an honor to be able to do this with our friends from Pierce’s World. (Psstt.. check them out here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8j1huDuSKyg1whZIm7a5nA)

Boys really enjoyed trying new things. It also gave them a “taste” ( Ha did you see what I did there!) of a different culture!

They (of course) loved the candy, I on the other hand LOVED the spicy noodles. I’m going to HAVE to get some more of those!

I would love to do this again with a few other channels. I mean, come on, who doesn’t love food? Ha!
