Rock Band is a phenomenon. I never really enjoyed rhythm games all that much, but my family decided to buy Rock Band and it has been awesome. Players can choose to play guitar, bass, drums, and vocals. Each of the instruments plays differently and is fun in their own way. You can play the game by yourself like you would play Guitar Hero, but the real fun is multiplayer. The game really does a...

We were suppose to be out and about to buy gifts for others but things quickly  turned into a shopping spree for our own amusement  when we headed to a local mall and a giant ToysRUs store - intially to pick up Christmas Eve games.  This year we decided that we would add a little slant to the festivities and  we decided to pick up Rock Band 2 which comes complete with a drum...

On Valentine's Day 2009, my husband and I decided to renew our vows. Our first ceremony did not include matching wedding bands. We decided we needed a set of matching wedding bands this go around. However, we did not want to pay jewelry store prices. We searched local jewelers and found even plain thin gold bands cost a pretty penny, about $150 each for the gumball machine cheapies. We look...

If you have active kids, whether they love to play sports inside or outside of your home, chances are they are bound to get injured or scratched. Also if you work fast and tend to get paper cuts, working in the kitchen getting wounded with a sharp knife, or by doing yard work you get cut or splinters, etc; all of these so called minor scratches and open wounds would need to be addressed quickly...

This was the first toy my husband bought for our daughter and it was an instant favorite!  We really want to inspire musical ability and this was a fun set to get that started.First of all, the toys come packaged in a cute plastic drum, which can also be played.  The instruments themselves are high quality, cute, brightly colored and bug-themed.  Included in the set are a xylphon...

Band of Brothers is a great series, you will fall in love with the wonderful characters, the amazing direction, and beautiful cinemetography. When it comes to television series, it doesn't get much better than the quality of Band of Brothers. The DVDs keep up with that same level of qualit...

The game Rock Band, for the Xbox 360, PS3, and PS2, is easily the best multiplayer party game every created. The special edition bundle comes with a drum set, microphone, and fender stratocaster guitar. After a few minutes of first-time assembly, you'll be well on your way to rocking out and driving your neighbors mad. The guitar part works similar to that of the popular guitar hero series,...

When Guitar Hero came out, I absolutely loved it and was constantly playing it with my friends. Then I heard about a new video game coming out in which you were able to play drums, guitar, sing. I was very excited to hear about this.Rock Band is available now for Playstation 2, Playstation 3, and Xbox 360. It will be available for Wii in June 2008. This game is so much fun. I bought the special...

Finding pants that fit comfortably while pregnant is very difficult.  Bella bands are bands that you can wear around your tummy to enhance the fit of your pants while you are pregnant.  This band is like a tube top, and fits around your waist.  At the beginning of your pregnancy when you are barely squeezing out of your regular jeans you can leave your jeans unbuttoned and wear t...

Like the rest of my family, my 20 month old daughter has light blue eyes which are very light sensitive.  She will not leave on sunglasses, regardless of how much better she can see with them on.  Sound familiar?  She'd rather chew on them and play with them than wear them. I had been considering buying some Baby Banz after a review I saw on here, but then I found these sungl...

The difference between Guitar Hero and Rock Band is the addition of added instruments (Bass, Drum and Microphone) and it is a welcome one. I never actually took to Guitar Hero that much, but nightly with Rock Band we have family "Jam" sessions and I have to say we are getting pretty good. Rock Band has been a great bonding experience by allowing all members of the our family to p...

When my belly first started growing enough that I couldn't wear my regular jeans during my pregnancy, I decided to try this belly band so I could keep wearing them for a little longer. The idea behind the band is that you just leave your pants unbuttoned and zip them as much as possible, then put the band over the unzipped and unbuttoned part and over your belly. The elastic band is su...

I was chopping onions at work the other day and I didn't realize that the knife I was using had recently been sharpened.  When we get our knives sharpened at work, they are really very sharp.  You only have to touch the blade to your skin and it will cut you.  Now I am rushing to the first aid kit for a band-aid!  The kit has the usual brown band-aids that are plastic.&n...

  I was given the plus antibiotic bandaids. I have the neon colors box with twenty bandaids per box. These bandaids will help minimize the apperance of scars, and its easy one step protection. The antibiotic ointment is right there on the pad. I like these because the application is not messy. The colors are great for kids. They also come in different sizes. These are great for minor cuts,...

The Rock Band 2 bundle is a vast improvement over the previous game in the series.  The original Rock Band suffered from poorly designed instruments that broke after only a few days of serious use.  The new game comes with extra sensitive, steel reinforced drums and a slightly improved guitar.  Everything is now wireless as well (except for the microphone)  which ends the ne...

This is Beachbody’s B-Line complete kit of resistance bands. Resistance bands offer resistance just like dumbbells, except they’re much lighter and cheaper. This kit has 10 bands, 3 pairs of handles, a weight range of 5-50 lbs going up by 5s, and each band is a different color to indicate what weight it is. Compared to buying a full set of dumbbells, this set of resistance bands is ...

First, what are flex bands? Flex bands are giant rubber bands that come in various resistances ranging from 15 pounds to 200 pounds. These aren't your bands with the handles on them that you find in any retail store, flex bands are a whole new exercise experience! The uses for these bands are endless and people on any fitness level can use them, from beginner to advanced. I used these when ...

Kay Jewelers is one of the most successful nationwide jewelry store chains -- and with good reason. The service we received in their Lubbock, TX location was spectacular. Unfortunately, many jewelry stores seem to size their potential customers up and vary their customer service depending on how big their potential sale might be. Not so for Kay. Despite being, how shall I put this, "young ...

The LaepFrog Learning Band Walker is, in my experience, a great investment. We had a Fisher Price walker before this one, and it was not strong enough for our child. It was wobbly, and more than once, I saw her fall over with it. That is NOT the case with the LeapFrog. It is strong and well-made, not to mention enchanting to the child. They will be so proud when they take off on a cruise with t...
