The FinFun Mermaid Tail is the best thing that ever happened to me, honestly. All you have to do is slide the MonoFin through the hole in the bottom of the tailpiece, put your feet into the foot sockets, and pull the tail up around you. It feels great in the water! Just by giving it one good kick I was flung halfway across a pool! It comes in all different colors, including purple, blue and green, orange and yellow, and also pink. Now all that's left is to ask Santa for the bikini top that goes with it! Well, this isn't safe... Of course, it is! The MonoFin keeps you up in the water just by giving it a few swishes, and the hole in the tail helps for easy movement in the event of an emergency. It says in the instructions to "Only swim as a mermaid where you would as a human." It also gives a list of strokes you should be able to do in order to be able to use it. I highly suggest this for your mermaid wannabe. (Or merman) When you check out their website, you will … [Read more...]

LEGO KidsFest WI was such a blast!!! There were soooo many LEGOS everywhere, with building stations, challenge games, LEGO statues, and so much more! The number of attendees was great, they make sure it doesn't get too crowded so that kids can experience everything during their time slot. The girls loved the building stations. They were able to make many LEGO creations at the Disney Princess, LEGO Friends, and the Construction Zone. Many helpful employees were walking around offering to help find specific pieces. The best part was the Challenge Zones. Activities ranged from team building to relay races. At the end of each 4-minute challenge, a winner was chosen and everyone got a LEGO set prize!

I Was In An Opera
There is a fun program called Opera For The Young and I was able to take part of it! They travel around school districts and have all the materials that are needed -- before hand and on the actual day of the performance. So, I Was In An Opera! I was the Justice Of The Piece and was to perform a marriage ceremony. Unfortunately for the "happy couple" I was interrupted too many times to complete the ceremony and the hero was able to step in and take away the girl. For several weeks, we (me and the other kids) met before school to practice our parts. Then the day arrived for a dress rehearsal and the performance. We did the opera for the entire middle school -- it was a hoot! I have been on stage since I was 2, signing and dancing, so this was just a ton of fun for me, and the adult cast was a treat to work with! I highly suggest you try to get YOUR school involved -- it is a great program! Opera for the Young® brings live, professional opera to elementary school … [Read more...]
