How to Survive Life in the Suburbs

Get Out ‘N Play- Toy Give Away

in Lifestyle on 08/13/10

Stortz & Associates Inc. is Canada’s leading distributor and importer of Eco Friendly toys.  They are also the source for unique and fun toys which are regularly featured by the media! 

I am pleased to be able to offer another giveaway to Canadians by this special company. 

Oh Yeah.  Check out this Marshmallow shooter.  You just know I was the COOLEST Mama on the block when I popped up in the backyard with one of these.  Covered in cute little daises to boot!  My girls had a fabulous time blasting Marshmallows at incredible distances all over the backyard.  The dog thought it was pretty cool too.  Are mini Marshmallows bad for dogs?   IMG_4435

Then there was this little number.  Do you have a hockey player in your house?  Here is a fun way to learn those hockey skills!  WristSHOOTERS.

WristShooters

The information from the site tells us:

WristSHOOTERS improve hand/eye co-ordination, stick handling, slap shots and other important hockey skills. WristSHOOTERS are designed to be used indoors and include two hand blades and a soft foam ball.

Hmm.  Wonder if they would help me with my  regular old hand/eye co-ordination issues?

 

I need to work on those hand/eye skills before I play with this little baby again!  The Eco Saucer is hours of fun.  (and made from recycled grocery bags!) 

EcoSaucer

Turns out the Eco Saucer Flying Disc is more fun for the Hubby then anyone else.  He is the one who tossed me the disc, the one and only time I missed.  Well, the only one I missed …..that flew through my fingers and smashed into my face.  Funny?

Yes, for everyone but me.

Sigh.  Good thing he thinks I’m cute cause I am super un-coordinated. 

The exciting news is that the fantastically generous people at Stortz have offered to giveaway one of each of these products to one lucky reader!

    Woo hoo - another amazing HomeExchange! This week Woo hoo - another amazing HomeExchange! 
This week we felt all kinds of spoiled in our cozy accommodations in gorgeous Scottsdale. We hiked local trails, snuck in a little golf, drove with the top down, ate all the food, and enjoyed a sweet sunset in our own backyard. All because #Homeexchange provided us with a unique - almost free- way to stay in Arizona and see all the things! 

We had such an amazing time we’re already planning our next adventure!
