Klutz Guide to the Galaxy, Scholastic Storybook Treasures DVD & More Friday Favorites (w. giveaways)

By

Congratulations to Thien-Kim who won all three items below and Michelle and Heather who will be getting a Klutz Guide to the Galaxy!


Yesterday I had the pleasure of attending the spring and summer Time to Play showcase to learn about the hot toy trends for the coming months.  While I have so much to say about the things I saw and played with, I’ll share all the great things I learned about at a later date because I wanted to share these three great items and giveaways with you.

Klutz Guide to the Galaxy ($19.99)- Looking up into the night sky to explore the universe from your own backyard has never been more fun or educational thanks to Klutz’s Guide to the Galaxy.  According to Klutz, “when the scientists at Klutz Labs tackle outer space, questions like “where’s the Big Dipper?” are just the beginning.”  The guide also tackles important questions like “How likely is it that a meteor will fall from the sky and squash me flat?” and “If I lived on Mercury, am I already old enough to drive?” and “Why do they call them MoonPies?”  The guide comes with a telescope that kids will have fun putting together and a red-lense flashlight that helps keep your night vision intact to consult the Tourist Map of the Moon and super-simple star charts. Other activities include telling time with a star, using the book’s built-in sundial, and an astrolab to figure out your latitude anywhere on Earth. This book is great for younger kids to use to explore topics related to planetary science with their parents or older kids to use on their own.  Win 1 of 3 copies of Klutz Guide to the Galaxy by entering below.

Scholastic Storybook Treasures Tikki Tikki Tembo…And More Stories to Celebrate Asian Heritage ($14.95)- Just in time for May’s Asian-Pacific American Heritage Month, Scholastic Storybook Treasures Tikki Tikki Tembo brings together 6 wonderful stories.  Tikki Tikki Tembo is a beloved 20 year old classic set in ancient China that will have you saying Tikki Tikki Tembo No Sa Rembo Chari Bari Ruchi Pip Peri Pembo and make your children happy that you gave them much shorter names in the event that they ever fall in a well.  Additional stories include The Tale of the Mandarin Ducks, Grandfather’s Journey, The Stonecutte, Lon Po Po: A Red-Riding Hood Story from China, and Sam and the Lucky Money which is one of our favorite Chinese New Year themed stories. Win a copy of Tikki Tikki Tembo by entering the giveaway below.

Debbie and Friends Story Songs and Sing Alongs DVD ($14.95)– Boston based Debbie Cavelier of Debbie and Friends released her first DVD to the delight of her fans who previously enjoyed her music videos on YouTube. Story Songs and Sing Alongs features 10 animated music videos with cartoon versions of some Debbie and Friends’ songs, like new versions of classics like “Little Red Riding Hood” and “Jack and the Beanstalk,” plus original songs like “Willy Won’t” and “Home Run Ronnie.” Debbie’s music has a fun pop vibe and if it seems familiar, it was featured on the TV show “24” last year!
