Kids want a pogo stick but you don’t want the boo boo’s that come with it?

Then check out this Underwater Pogo Stick for bouncing fun underwater! These are only meant for built in pools though! Great fun for kids of all ages!

Congratulations to Leslie S. – the winner of the great Country Barn!

Thanks to everyone who entered!

As many of us on the East Coast know – not every day is sunny! This last winter has been a long one and I am sure many of us are battling daily with bored kids going “Mom, I am bored”! Some kids are even so bored that they are even tired of the video games and computers!

Well now there is an alternative!

The creative line of products from Imagination Box Co. are just what Mom needs to get the kids inspired and be creative!

Now at first glance – it may seem like just a piece of cardboard, but when you look deeper you will see a beautifully designed, eco-friendly and recyclable canvas for your child to color and create with!

Take this stunning Cottage adorned with floral accents and even a door and windows to enjoy! Even the interior features a great design accent so your children can “create” different rooms!

So here is the before……..and then the after! Can you say FUNNNNN!

And there are several styles available or you can get a plain house and create your own design.  And what we love most about this company – not only the fact they are Eco-Friendly, but that they work with a group called Panhandle Special Needs to help them assemble their products! Have to love a company that gives back in so many ways!

Kids want to make money too – and there is no better past time than the Lemonade Stand for the little ones to start their own business.

An old fashioned past time with a modern twist – this Wooden Lemonade Stand from Quality Time Construction will have your little entrepreneur running a successful business in no time!

Every Portable Wood Lemonade Stand can be customized with the included chalk and stickers, or feel free to be really creative and use paints and stencils to create a stand that is as unique as your child.

Whether selling lemonade at the curb, cookies on the baseball field or whatever niche your child is interested, this portable stand will be a great asset to their business!

Quality Time Construction also will be releasing a Portable Wood Kids Workbench and Portable Wooden Activity Center in the coming months as well!

Handtrux Toys is a unique line of hydraulic powered toys that are meant toreally encourage a child’s imagination.

These are hand-operated toys that allow a child to do some precision digging and excavate sand, loose dirt and mud – and yes even snow making it a great year-round toy.

Inside the arm of the toy is the hidden hydraulic power grip which allows them to control the hand.

The toy was a huge success this year having sold out on their own website as well as in FAO Schwartz.

Handtrux toys are also Made In America – gotta’ love that – and to boot it is a great gift that is less than $20.

We are guessing that inventory should be replenished soon, so I would keep an eye out at Handtrux Toys to see when the items are back in stock.

We will be meeting the Handtrux team at the Toy Fair next month so once we see them in person we may carry them at Outdoor Play Toys – stay tuned!

a Crooked Playhouse that is!

We are in love with these adorable Crooked Houses, by the Kids Crooked House company.  Whimsical with vibrant colors and unique designs, these fun playhouses will entertain for years!

Every Wooden Playhouse can be fully customized from the color to the design, you can choose it all! How about a Crooked Castle? A Crooked Garden Shop? Maybe even a Crooked Pirate Ship for your Matey? This group can make it happen!

They have also recently added a line of Crooked Swing Sets too! Prices range from about $1,500 to $5,000 depending on size and customizations, but we think it is worth every penny!
