When I was a kid, it was my dream each Christmas Eve to finally catch Santa Claus in the act!  I was a believer at the time, but I had already begun to hear the whisperings from older children (and adults who didn't think I was listening) that Santa was a myth.

Personally, I couldn't believe those rumors to be true and would always do my best to finally meet the Big Guy face-to-face in my very own home.  If you have a child that yearns to catch Santa in the act, be sure that this toy is safely under lock and key or YOU may be the ones caught...on tape!

I can still vaguely remember how hard it was growing up as a toddler and preschooler.  Everything in our home was built for grown-ups, making me just a LITTLE too short to see myself in the mirror, turn on the water faucet, light switch, or just about a hundred other daily tasks.

A determined child needs a high-quality step stool to help level the playing field and allow them to reach new heights of independence (and new heights, in general.)  Artistic Sensations prides themselves on creating high-quality, functional furniture guaranteed to stand the test of time.  Keep reading to learn more about the personalized puzzle step stool I reviewed!

'Tis the season...to stock up on batteries!  Electronic toys and gadgets are always hot gift items, but be sure to attach a pack of quality batteries to that type of present or you will have some sad faces to deal with on Christmas morning!

Duracell has been delivering power that we can trust since 1930, and this time around, they've brought us a powerful video featuring NFL Pro Linebacker Patrick Willis which inspires us to trust the power within ourselves.  Please give this must-see video a look and then leave a comment below to tell me what you think!

Being a first time mommy, I love anything and everything that reminds me of my daughter, Riley, and the wonderful change that has happened in my life since becoming a mom.  I've long been a fan of photo jewelry and would love to have one commemorating my journey into motherhood, but unfortunately, I have never taken the time to actually put any pictures inside one.  Isn't that terrible?!

Thankfully, PicturesOnGold.com has a myriad of photo pendants available and ready for customization.  They even take care to inscribe your most precious photo on your jewelry selection using color laser engraving!  I had the chance to customize one of their photo lockets and if you're the lucky winner of this giveaway, you will too.

During winter, there's nothing better than a steaming hot cup of coffee, cafe latte or hot chocolate.  The creamy goodness of these beverages definitely soothes the soul as well as any frazzled holiday nerves.

Unfortunately, most coffee makers are designed to make just that...coffee.  And if you'd like anything else, such as a cafe latte, you're going to pay through the nose at a neighborhood coffee shop.  Thankfully, Mr. Coffee has found a way to save you up to $500 per year on specialty drinks with their brand new Cafe Latte machine.

One of the great things about the holiday season is all the fabulous music!  Whether you like the golden oldie Christmas carols from folks like Bing Crosby and Nat King Cole or prefer the newer selections from Justin Bieber and Michael Buble, one thing's for sure...the music just HAS to sound GREAT!  :whistle:

Now I have a large entertainment center in my home which sounds phenomenal, but it isn't compatible with my iPod, mp3 player, iPhone or any other portable electronic device.  So how can I play those rockin' seasonal songs while at home or on the go?  Just sync your music catalog to the Soundfreaq Sound Kick Bluetooth Speaker and get your holiday freak on!  :big grin:
