I have a house full of little boys, so we constantly have toys like cars and trucks underfoot. Our MOTORWORKS wooden vehicles have not had a pit stop since they arrived at our house for review. The new Manhattan Toy MOTORWORKS line of wooden cars, trucks, accessories and play sets are the kind of toys my kids dream about!
Each MOTORWORKS vehicle is completely customizable with interchangeable pieces, car decals, side pipes and spoilers. My boys LOVE building their custom cars and trucks over and over again in different ways.
No matter what style of car or truck your child is into, they can find it in the Manhattan Toy MOTORWORKS line-up. There are three different series of vehicle trim levels: Street Series, Speed Series and Extreme Series. Of course, my boys go for the EXTREME SERIES because they loved the cool monster truck with big wheels and the amazing-looking dragster car. The more extreme, the better at our house! [Read more...]
Did you know that this year marks the 150 year anniversary of the Civil War & The Battle of Gettysburg? I did not realize that!

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of World Market for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.
We took our favorite dad on a family shopping trip to World’s Market last weekend. The whole store is filled with all sorts of things that would make awesome Father’s Day Gifts. I’m talking everything you can think of as far as BBQ tools and utensils go, plus Beer/Wine tastings, Bar essentials and more. I let dad (aka my hubby) take the lead and followed him and the kids around World Market to find out what kind of things would catch his eye. [Read more...]
