LeapFrog Brave Review


Thank you to LeapFrog for sponsoring this review. For more information about LeapFrog, please visit their website. #CleverBrave #spon 










My kids (and okay, me too!) have been anxiously awaiting the release of Pixar's new movie Brave. I was very excited when I was asked to review a couple of Brave products for LeapFrog.  We haven't had a chance to see the movie just yet but at least we could gear up for it this way!




First up is the Disney Pixar Brave Explorer cartridge for LeapFrog's LeapPad.  You get to follow Merida through a bunch of adventures to help learn to be brave.  They are so many different levels and activities which is great because it means it'll keep the kids occupied for a long time!  Landon, who is five, had a little trouble on his own, but with the help of his big sister they were able to figure things out.  It was so cute to watch them play together and get excited about finding certain items.  :)




We also got to try out the Disney Pixar Brave Tag book.  This was our first experience with the Tag and my kids loved it!  We read a lot of books in our house and this was such a fun way to read.  It is told in Merida's voice and can I just say I LOVE her?! She is such a cute character and of course her accent is just plain fun.  I could listen to her for hours.  Cailyn has been toting the book around everywhere with her, including the breakfast table.  :)



My kids love that they can read the book or play the games inside.  There is so much to do that I don't think they will get bored any time soon.  :)





Have you tried any of these Brave products?  Have you seen the movie yet?  I'm even more excited to take the kids to see it now!!!

WIWW: Turquoise & Purple






I love wearing fun color combinations. It makes my wardrobe stretch further when I can mix and match everything. :)  I saw this turquoise tank and purple cardigan hanging next to each other in my closet and I thought, "Oh! Those colors look pretty together!"

Pinterest Find




How cute it this idea! I found this on pinterest and I want to give this a try! Spray paint a garbage can and turn it upside down to use as a table! Now, I just need to find a cute garbage can and make one!
