Cool-Or-Crummy

This is one of those things that looks so ridiculous you can’t imagine actually putting it on. But that’s the beauty of it: it’s totally hilarious! This weird glove has everything from teethers to rattles to (non-breakable) mirrors on it — plus a teeny little “Bobo Baby” animal book. The glove is made from a variety of fabrics, with a soft velour-and-jersey lining for whoever is wearing it.

When this gift set arrived, we had a bit of a stampede to review it. The kids just loved the brightly colored kitty, not to mention the little bag o’sparkling stuff around her neck. From a mama’s point of view, we didn’t mind letting them test the products with wild abandon: made by Herban Renewal of Abilene, all of the lotions and potions in this set are natural. And yes, they smell divine.

This is one of those things that’s so cool, you just can’t wait to get your hands on it. At least, that’s how the tester dads and kids felt when it dropped on our doorstep. The beamz Music Creator uses lasers as musical “keys”: by breaking the connection between the lasers, you can create a symphony in your living room.

The packaging calls this thing the fastest ball on the planet and that it very well may be. Lightweight and textured, and about the size of a baseball, the Blitz Ball is super easy even for the smallest of hands to grip. And man, does it fly!

It you’ve made a resolution to be more “green” this year, we highly recommend these cool bags.

Non-vegetarians may make fun of Tofurky, but there’s no denying this vegan roast is really good.

VegeUSA claims this vegan “ham” tastes exactly like the real thing. Well, not quite. Still, it’s darn tasty!
