toys

I'm a 90s kid so I have a certain connection to anything 1990s or early 2000s. To my surprise, when I clicked around the Internet yesterday I saw that Tamagotchis were trending, I had to figure out why!

With the growing popularity of the usage of drones, it's great to see that there are more and practical and serious reasons.

Wow, I can't believe how excited the world is today about the release of some of the new toys that will accompany the movie Star Wars: The Force Awakens. I mean they are just toys right? Well with the Star Wars series they have never been "just toys" , they are collectibles. I know you will be excited to see all of the offerings whether it be action figures, costumes, Lego sets and the r

A while ago I did a blog about a very scary toy - a toy that almost caused me psychological damage when I was a kid. And now it's been brought up again in conversation.  I couldn't sleep last nite!

I had many Stars Wars action figures and other accessories as a child so I got to thinking about some of my  favorites that I used to have when I was just a little Scottie B.

We know, we know—it's only September. When it comes to toys, though, it's never too early to start thinking about the holiday season, especially for retailers. It is big business.

I know I know, school hasn’t even started and here I am talking about Christmas!

This is why toys with small parts have warning labels on them. I have to admit I don't really think about the possible dangers past the obvious "choking hazard".  I most definitely would not have seen something like this story happening.

I took a little trip today to the little town of Northville, NY for the Readin', Writin' and Rhymin' Tour.  It's a nice little town near beautiful Lake Sacandaga.  And I met some REALLY nice little residents-first graders to be exact!
