Back 2 School Blog Bash | 3 Boys And A Dog

Day #26 JumpStart Online Virtual World Giveaway

September 25, 2009 By Kelli 10 Comments

THIS CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED

This post was provided by JumpStart. Please see my previous reviews on the JumpStart Worlds! Here and Here.

JumpStart now features player interaction! (You can turn it off if you choose, though). Kids can see and interact with each other inside the world at JumpStart.com. This includes the addition of a dance floor in the center of the world, which means Adventure land can only be accessed through the submarine located next to Story land.

We know that you value the safety of our product and have endorsed our product on that opinion. We want to take this opportunity to ensure you that this is still the very safe JumpStart you know and love. To keep everyone safe, we have restricted communication to dancing and facial expressions. Soon, we will have “canned chat,” which will allow players to choose from age-appropriate, pre-selected phrases and greetings to send to each other.

This new feature also promotes learning even more! Children will see cool features on other Jumpeez that must be purchased with JumpStart coins, which are mostly earned in the learning houses.

Please visit our blog post, at http://blog.jumpstart.com/2009/07/07/jump-in-together/, to learn more about the safety and educational value of this new feature.

Don’t forget to go back to the main post to learn how you can win one of the following prizes:

Casio Baby-G Marine Timepiece Review & Giveaway

September 23, 2009 By Kelli 34 Comments

Baby-G Slim Marine:

Whether you are spending the holiday season at home with the family, or on an exotic island soaking up the sun, you will want to be equipped with a watch that can endure whatever life throws at you. This Baby-G is water resistant up to 200 meters, shock resistant, features 5 daily alarms and 48-city world time for the jetsetter. The watch has a chaton-style bezel protector placed around the bezel, much like the 6-prongs setting on a ring, which protects the face of the watch. This watch is the perfect gift for the adventurous woman who is confident in herself and in the watch she wears.

Shock-Resistant

These watches may be stylish and comfortable but they also come equipped with the toughness to withstand whatever life dishes out. Protective casing allows the ladies to live without worrying about whether their watch will be up for any challenge.

Water Resistant

These watches were designed to withstand water pressure up to 200 meters. Protective casing allows the ladies to have some fun in the sun without worrying about whether their watch will be able to handle the underwater exposure.

MSRP: $79

Available at select Macy’s and online at www.Baby-G.com

Mom Says

I was also sent a watch to review, but I didn’t get it for very long. My 9 year old jumped on it! “Please mom! You always get stuff and this is BLUE. So, it is for me!” I made him put it on to be sure it wasn’t too big for his “little boy” arm. Doesn’t it look great on him? Plus, since it is a Casio I don’t have to worry about him tearing it up. They are very “little boy” resistant.
