My parents got all the boys in my large family the coolest presents this Christmas: laser tag sets from Dynasty Toys.
When they first opened them, I had no idea how cool they were. I guess I was picturing one of those cheesy laser tag sets I had seen before with the vests and the lasers that never seemed to work. This isn't that kind of set.
Sports & Outdoors
Add a tent to your trampoline for next level fun
I think I’ve finally outdone myself with the addition of the AlleyOOP Outback Trampoline Tent to our JumpSport Elite Trampoline. The kids have had so much fun bouncing in and around the AlleyOOP tent for hours, playing all sorts of games, and now are so excited to take their trampoline camping to the next level thanks to this awesome tent that gives all the fun of trampoline sleeping, without all the bugs.
Year-round water fun with Coconut Pool Floats
Now that we’re in full summer swing, our awesome new Coconut Floats have already gotten quite the workout at our friend’s lake house and at pool dates. I knew the kids were going to love them, but I wasn’t expecting to fall in love with them myself. But, I find their floats are perfect for relaxing in and getting in all the kiddo snuggles I want, without worrying about whether or not it will survive our play.
High Trek Adventures: Seattle’s largest ropes course and zipline park
If you’re looking for a great date night, a family experience, or the best team building activity in the Seattle area, look no further than High Trek Adventures in Everett, WA. Located approximately 20 minutes north of Seattle, High Trek is an aerial adventure park that boasts two ropes courses, 3 ziplines that circumvent the park, and over 60 aerial elements that will have you climbing, balancing, and swinging from heights of anywhere from 15 to 50 feet.
Parents: get in on the fun with the Swagtron K8 Titan kick scooter
Not just another kids’ ride, the K8 from Swagtron was built to withstand grownup weight and accommodate grownup heights. No longer do we need to take turns or throw out our backs scooting about the neighborhood, because the K8 gives me my own lightweight and foldable scooter with adult-sized adjustments that has all the bells and whistles that I could have ever asked for.
Closing the digital divide with Comcast
Have you heard of the digital divide? We sat down with Comcast to discuss their Internet Essentials program that provides low-cost high-speed Internet service to families in need in order to close that divide. Olympic gold medalist Monique and Jocelyne Lamoureux were there to tell us all about what’s to come with their partnership with Comcast as well as their hockey aspirations.
