I know I said I’d stop sharing holiday gift ideas…but I just can’t keep these two items to myself!
#1: The Wheely Bug. Rumor has it that Santa is getting our little Anna a Prince Lionheart Wheely Bug for Christmas this year. This is the BEST little scootter-type toy. Our friends from the UK have the bumble bee, which is where Anna first tried it out. The wheels spin in every direction so it turns on a dime, and it literally glides over the floor. SOOO much better than those clunky ride-on toys that you usually see. I think Anna might be getting the ladybug…but Santa wouldn’t give up all his secrets.
#2: Kodak Zi6 Video Camera. Kodak was the platinum sponsor for SocialLuxe Lounge this summer (which I co-hosted). As part of the swag bags they gave away 200 of their Zi6 cameras to our party goers (including me!). I’ve tweeted about how much I love the camera but have never done a post. So here it is: I love this camera…way more than the Flip cameras I have had in the past. It fits in my purse nicely, is easy to use, the battery lasts a long time between charges, and it takes great video…and it’s only $100! The Zi8 has come out since I received my Zi6, so if you like being cutting edge, go for that one, I’m sure it’s great!
Okay, I think I’m done with the gift ideas. But I’m not making any promises.
Hello! My name is Jane Maynard and you've landed yourself on my blog, This Week for Dinner™. Every Sunday I share a weekly menu...and then count on you to share your own! You'll also find other deliciousness that I hope you'll enjoy!
I think I want to get the Kodak for my son. He’s going to be 5 and it may be a bit much but I think he’d really get a kick out of being able to take movies and such!
I think it would be perfect for you son! he really would have fun…and only 100 bucks? so great!
We have that ladybug and it’s a hit. My two and three year olds love it. Works best on hardwood floors.
perfect, all we’ve got it hardwood floors! I can’t wait for santa to bring it next week.
These wheely bugs look really fun, are they suitable on very short pile carpet or laminate flooring?
surprisingly, it rolls quite well on our carpet – and it’s not even that short of a pile. laminate flooring – for sure glides like crazy. and as far as I can tell it wouldn’t be damaging to the laminate flooring in any way. it’s a very fun toy!
we wish we had gotten the small one – I will say that. for our 2 year old the large was a little too big. but she still loves it!
