1:04
Machine it comes with three stories
1:07
already included but this is by little
1:08
Tes you can watch it up on the wall or
1:11
the ceiling and then you can listen to
1:13
the stories and read along with
1:20
them so all of the little stories that
1:23
you can purchase from them they have
1:25
them on Amazon Walmart Target probably a
1:28
few other stores those are just just the
1:30
stores I typically shop at it comes with
1:32
the pokey little puppy the saggy baggy
1:34
elephant and the toy crowny lion I'm
1:38
hoping that this helps to get my son
1:40
into enjoying reading a lot more and
1:42
then over here on the site it also has
1:45
other collections that you can get now
1:47
these are like the small inserts that
1:49
you use for it down below at the bottom
1:52
but you could get the full siiz books
1:54
for them as well and these are basically
1:57
the step into reading books so these are
2:00
book that are going to be like beginner
2:01
friendly I highly recommend getting like
2:04
those pre-reading and step into reading
2:06
books to go along with it if you really
2:08
want to get your little one enjoying
2:10
this I was excited for that so it did
2:11
come with three stories but I also went
2:13
ahead and got the Bern stain bear
2:15
stories to go along with it because he
2:17
likes the burn stained Bears there's a
2:19
good chance that we have some of these
2:20
books in our library we have we like
2:22
kites Bears on Wheels and the burn stain
2:25
Bears ride the Thunderbolt so a really
2:29
cute card that I actually do adore
2:32
things like this one Daniel Tiger
2:34
Franklin Little Bear all of the
2:36
nostalgic cartoons are the ones that I
2:38
still like my little one to watch so
2:41
just grabbed him three extra books to go
2:43
along with his dream machine because it
2:46
comes with three but now he has an
2:47
additional three more just to get him
2:50
started this one is a kid favorite for
2:52
some reason our magneti disappear in our
2:55
home so I got him somewhere this is good
2:57
for concentration imagination log iCal
3:00
thinking practical ability helps him to
3:02
really be creative and build things
3:04
these things are amazing the kids love
3:08
these toys kids of multiple ages they
3:10
love these toys so got him more this is
3:13
for ages three and up but I've had
3:14
little ones come over to the house that
3:17
were even under the age of three it
3:19
really like really love these things and
3:22
they just would fight over them because
3:25
it just wasn't enough for them to all be
3:26
able to build the biggest rocket ship or
3:29
Construction truck so went ahead and
3:31
grabbed more magne ties for him and
3:34
speaking of construction trucks they had
3:36
the cutest little construction I don't
3:37
know why they would sit there and put
3:39
the sticker on the front so that I can't
3:42
basically it has like Fire Station
3:45
construction trucks and different type
3:47
of magne tile designs that they can
3:49
build so I thought that was really cute
3:50
that he'll be able to build like these
3:52
different things like he is going to
3:54
love this one I really have no doubt
3:57
about that 48 pieces so
4:00
these help him to be able to build like
4:02
roads and things has things where he can
4:04
build construction trucks it even comes
4:06
with the workers um cranes and fire
4:10
station and firefighters super super
4:12
adorable so he has um plenty of those
4:16
and then just to add a few more to the
4:18
collection I just got just the basic
4:20
magne tiles so more magne ties for him I
4:23
think he's going to be happy with that
4:24
I'm going to be happy with that because
4:26
like I said those things keep him busy
4:28
for a long time they have books that you
4:30
can purchase that has like a bunch of
4:32
different ideas or you can just print
4:34
some on fly they have them on Pinterest
4:37
different things that you can build with
4:38
them you can just put a new one out
4:40
every day if you want to to keep those
4:42
kids out of your hair while you are
4:43
cooking or cleaning so that's a fun one
4:46
for both the children and the parents in
4:48
my opinion so this next one here I'm
4:49
going to show you guys is a very
4:52
nostalgic let me show you guys but you
4:54
guys remember we had these when I was
4:57
little the easy B oven I loved it it was
5:01
super super cute so this one is going to
5:03
be gender neutral for your girl or your
5:04
boy just a really adorable Easy Baked
5:06
Oven I got this one from Walmart and
5:10
this one was only $45 because it just
5:13
it's just the um the oven so it comes
5:16
with basically the tray that you can
5:18
slide in there and then it comes with a
5:20
spatula they have the bundle sets that
5:22
come with the mixes they are sely
5:24
severely overpriced so I went ahead and
5:26
just got the mixes separately there are
5:28
two different things in here this one is
5:29
red velvet and strawberry cake this one
5:31
has chocolate chip and pink sugar and
5:33
then this one has cheese
5:36
pizza and regular pizza two different
5:39
mixes that he could use alongside with
5:41
it he's going to have fun and I'm I'm
5:43
going to have fun too now one thing that
5:45
he had been requesting this year is a
5:46
Melissa and duck um car carrier he had
5:49
one last year and you guys I stepped on
5:52
it not my fa he should have cleaned his
5:55
room but listen I I stepped on on his
6:00
car carrier and he still does not know
6:02
to this day what happened to it well I
6:05
broke it and as to thrw it away so yeah
6:08
I stepped on the poor little thing this
6:11
year I upgraded him last year it was
6:13
just one tier like just the bottom part
6:16
where it could fit like four cars and he
6:18
still has those cars but this one the
6:20
cars are a little bit bigger and it
6:22
comes with the emergency vehicles and so
6:24
he can use all of these cars plus the
6:26
ones that he still has from his last
6:27
carrier and now he has the two levels
6:30
instead of just the one level he had
6:32
been asking for another one because he
6:34
realized that his last one was broke and
6:36
well yeah I got him another we don't
6:38
have to go so deep into that all right
6:42
is another kid favorite Paw Patrol so my
6:46
husband picked out these ones here we
6:49
Yumi we of course have Rumble and mayor
6:52
good got to have mayor good way Ginger
6:54
neutral as well the boys and the girls
6:56
love Paw Patrol another in the house
7:00
whenever we have kids come over for like
7:02
play dayss and things we have to pull
7:03
out the magne ties and we got to pull
7:06
out PAW Patrol so a few different people
7:09
that normally don't come with the PAW
7:11
Patrol um like toys my husband picked
7:14
those out um so I don't know how much or
7:18
even what story he got them from but he
7:20
got them with he got them with this
7:22
thing here which is the ultimate
7:24
barkyard crane Tower includes three pups
7:28
and two vehicles cools with the rubble
7:31
and crew ultimate barkyard cream you
7:34
load the sand you choose the mold for
7:37
the sand you put the mold inside of the
7:40
the toy and you push down to make like
7:43
brick layers and things like that so it
7:45
comes with more than 2 lounds of sand
7:47
the kinetic sand but I'm thinking maybe
7:49
we'll need to get him some kinetic sand
7:51
and put it inside of his Christmas
7:52
stocking to go along with this so that
7:54
he'll have um you know enough to De able
7:57
to build something things so yeah rubble
7:58
and crew ultimate barkyard crane Tower
8:01
he had been asking for the rubble and
8:02
crew ultimate fire truck and it is out
8:05
of stock so did you guys buy it did you
8:07
guys did you guys buy it all up before I
8:09
could get it I'm telling you I've been
8:10
looking for it since or way before Black
8:13
Friday didn't have it all the stuff we
8:15
got before Black Friday didn't have it
8:17
so we couldn't find the ultimate fire
8:19
track the one thing he asked for this
8:20
year so my husband and St got the
8:22
ultimate barkyard it's so heavy so I'm
8:24
going to put it down but I think he's
8:26
going to love that you know kids love
8:27
sand mom doesn't mom doesn't like sand
8:30
but hey he's going to like that one so
8:32
Merry Christmas to him okay another
8:35
thing that we got him this year he has
8:37
been into well not just recently he's
8:40
always been into like pretend play
8:42
imaginative play and things like that we
8:44
were doing speech development we had
8:46
like the little people Playhouse for him
8:48
we also built a house out of like the
8:50
Duplo blocks and things like that and it
8:53
was a hint for him when he was younger
8:54
we used to playhous just to teach him
8:56
how to talk with our speech development
8:58
when he was like a a year and a half
9:00
years old my husband recently pulled it
9:01
back out and I think we saved it for our
9:04
daughter maybe and now Noah has taken a
9:06
liking to it again I wanted to get him
9:09
more like play set for him to be
9:12
imaginative with so one thing he loves
9:15
is Super Mario and he has a lot of Super
9:17
Mario figurines so I wanted to get him
9:18
all the sets so down below it just shows
9:20
you like they have a ton of sets and I
9:23
really think he's going to love this and
9:24
we can continue adding on to it so he
9:26
can have like the whole little Mario
9:28
game scenes going on so this one here
9:30
Bowser Deluxe Battle Set super cute and
9:34
it does have lights and sounds and
9:37
everything I think you like press the
9:38
little button right here and then the
9:40
sledgehammer will hit the tile so that
9:43
the towels like kind of fall down and
9:45
Bowser would fall down too so I'm
9:47
assuming like a Mario just jumps on
9:49
there and it'll hit him like I look I
9:50
don't know but basically that that's
9:53
what it is it's like a a Bowser Battle
9:55
Set so we got him that one and then we
9:57
also got him the Bowser Castle also
10:01
super adorable we didn't get they have
10:03
like the lava castle sets lots of cute
10:06
little sets basically to create the
10:09
whole Mario play scene so this is the
10:11
castle one super super cute it also
10:13
comes with like look at this I think
10:16
this may be like from the movie don't
10:18
quote me on that but it does have like a
10:20
little cage where Princess Peach is
10:23
inside of and Mario has to come save the
10:25
day and I think it has like the the
10:27
little buttons on here that Mario
10:29
running up to this little button I don't
10:30
know exactly what it will do but it's a
10:33
whole like little little castle multi
10:36
layer it's like three levels to it so
10:39
that should be really really fun and
10:41
then this one here is the toad I feel
10:45
like I'm sounding way more excited about
10:47
this than him he hasn't seen it yet but
10:50
I'm super excited for this by myself I
10:52
mean this is a game that I used to play
10:53
with my husband all the time now my
10:55
husband and my son play it but this is
10:57
the toad Playhouse s really really cute
11:00
it has the Little Treasures you know how
11:02
you have to pick one of the treasures
11:04
and then like it has a door that you
11:06
come through and you can put the stars
11:08
in there and I think he has the stars
11:09
but I think it comes with like a star
11:12
Little Flower and then the mushroom that
11:15
makes some bigger I don't know but it
11:17
does come with the little pieces
11:19
mushroom flower and star that's
11:23
something else that he can add this one
11:26
is you complete a set at the end of the
11:28
course you you know run up the stairs
11:30
hit the flag come down and then go out
11:33
the door that's what this one is here so
11:35
he has this one the course set here as
11:38
well has the castle Hiway the slide down
11:41
and then the climb up steps is
11:43
everything included and then again like
11:45
it shows you at the bottom like extra
11:47
stuff that you can have to you know use
11:49
with the play set so there were tons I'm
11:52
telling you guys tons so I got him just
11:55
like four of them to start as well as
11:57
this fun one here this one is a Lego
11:59
said I absolutely if I'm being honest I
12:02
hate Legos if I'm being completely
12:04
honest I didn't want to say that too
12:05
loud but I do I hate Legos am I like
12:07
evil for saying that the kids love them
12:10
but they the pieces are so tiny it takes
12:13
so much to build them just so that they
12:15
can turn on and break them again the
12:17
next day I just I don't understand so
12:20
any who he likes them and it does keep
12:23
him busy this thing has 173 pieces like
12:26
are you kidding me so we have to be
12:28
really really careful with something
12:30
like this this is something that if we
12:32
are like I really need to keep him like
12:37
content at a moment where I need to get
12:39
something done I can hand him this and
12:41
it'll keep him busy for a really long
12:43
time but at the end of it this is
12:44
something that I have to take away from
12:45
him it's only for supervised play so
12:49
this is a beautiful Goomba playground is
12:53
what it is it has like a seesaw he has
12:55
all of the the Lego like Mario
12:58
characters and things like that so I
13:00
decided to add on to it because I know
13:02
he'll love it but I don't quite know
13:05
this is probably the least my least
13:07
favorite thing that I got him this year
13:09
okay so over here is a kid craft toy and
13:14
basically it is an everyday Heroes
13:18
wooden play set so let's insert a
13:20
picture for a reference so that you guys
13:22
can see what it looks like this is
13:23
something else I wanted him to have his
13:25
own wooden Place set as the baby gets
13:28
older we'll be getting herl like wooden
13:29
doll houses and things like that and I
13:31
really want him to be able to have his
13:33
own play sets as well has the multi
13:35
story levels and the figurines that he
13:37
can play with and things like that he
13:39
has a ton of emergency vehicles already
13:42
that he can play with alongside this I
13:44
thought it would be perfect um one year
13:46
we got him like a smaller fire station
13:49
like wooden fire station and it was in
13:54
23 Christmas gift haul maybe maybe 2022
13:58
I can't remember but any who was by
13:59
kidcraft as well so they have like
14:01
smaller ones if you want to just like
14:03
get the smaller ones and build upon it
14:05
so I thought this would be perfect for
14:06
him to have to play imaginary play with
14:09
and pretend play and things like that
14:11
because you guys I really do appreciate
14:13
that like I said he'll almost be six the
14:16
last six-year-old birthday party that we
14:17
went to Mother requested that we got I
14:21
think money or clothes and shoes maybe
14:24
or something I don't know but basically
14:26
she had been saying the kid didn't want
14:28
the toys and I was like why like is that
14:30
the thing now with six-year-olds that
14:32
they don't really want to play with toys
14:33
anymore so I appreciate that my
14:35
six-year-old wants to play with toys
14:37
wants to bake things and wants to play
14:40
with wooden playset houses and things
14:42
like that that makes my heart happy and
14:44
I really really really want to encourage
14:46
that in him for as long as I possibly
14:49
can so got him that I think he'll love
14:51
it so I want to show you guys some cool
14:52
stuff one is this it's a Hands-On Bible
14:56
got the baby girl her very first Bible
14:59
and so Noah is ready to graduate from
15:01
the baby Bible stories to an official
15:04
Bible so this one is for preschoolers
15:06
although he is homeschooling first grade
15:09
now he's 5 years old so I'm hoping that
15:11
means that he should really be able to
15:14
dive into this one but it's an activity
15:16
Bible and it's super super cute the
15:18
material is good quality nice leather
15:21
and it has a a table of contents it has
15:25
the Old Testament as well as the New
15:28
Testament so this one has all of the
15:30
Bible stories not just the kid favorites
15:33
all of them but it still has pictures
15:35
and it's still really really beautiful
15:38
um and then at the end of it it also has
15:40
like thought-provoking questions at the
15:43
end of it as well as an activity that
15:45
they can do to have them engag with it
15:47
and everything breaks down all of the
15:49
stories inside of that Bible book to
15:52
make it more kidfriendly I love it it is
15:55
like the perfect little bible for your
15:57
little ones this is the new living
15:59
translation New Living Translation but
16:01
it's super cute it's perfect for grade
16:03
school kids starting preschool and up to
16:06
grade school we are not going to be
16:07
doing up on the Shelf we don't really do
16:10
a whole lot of Santa like we talk about
16:12
it we watch movies surrounding it but I
16:14
did want to do Shepherd on the search
16:17
this year which is a really fun thing
16:19
it's just like Elf on the Shelf but this
16:21
is for finding Christ and Christmas it's
16:24
really really cute so it comes with this
16:27
like manger type box it's a keepsake box
16:30
for you to be able to store your little
16:33
Shepherd in and so the shepherd is a
16:36
really cute little stuffy we've already
16:39
put it out cuz I'm filming this on
16:41
December the 1st you guys really look
16:43
into the shepherd on the search if
16:44
you're looking for a little devotional
16:46
Tod do with the kids or some type of
16:47
Advent maybe I'll do a separate video
16:49
talking more about the shepherd on the
16:52
search but I did want to share this is
16:54
something else that we got him of course
16:55
we gifted it to him before Christmas but
16:58
but this is just something else we added
17:00
to our little Christmas thing this year
17:03
so I'll do a separate video talking
17:04
about that if you're interested but
17:06
besides that that sums up today's
17:08
Christmas gift haul I really hope that
17:10
you guys enjoyed it maybe found it to be
17:12
helpful found something that you like
17:14

17:53
grab as well everything that I got I got
17:56
before Black Friday and it was on sale
17:58
and my my opinion you get the best sales
18:01
outside of Black Friday that's just I
18:03
don't know so far that's what I think
18:04
for kids toys when it comes to like
18:06
adopt things like shopping for my
18:07
husband his things are best on sale for
18:10
a Black Friday but for my children I
18:13
don't I just I have not not one year
18:15
found those deals to be best on Black
18:17
Friday it's always outside of it because
18:19
they have deals all month long around
18:22
Christmas time starting November so now
18:24
I'm going to get this up put away before
18:26
the little one comes and find me and
18:28
ruins Christmas but I hope that you guys
18:31
enjoyed this video I enjoy filming it
18:33
for you guys and that's going to be all
18:35
I hope that you guys have a very happy
18:37
holiday season and just enjoy your
18:39
family and remember what Christmas is
18:41
truly about it is not about the gifts I
18:44
do this because I do not buy my kid
18:46
gifts year round I buy him gifts for
18:48
Christmas throughout the year anything
18:50
he asks for I add it to the Christmas
18:52
list and then come Christmas time if I
18:54
think he's still into that I'll get it
18:56
my husband he's the one that buys gifts
18:58
year long I I don't I don't buy toys all
19:01
year long so we go through you know his
19:04
home school he's a really great student
19:06
I think that you know toys are good for
19:10
kids it helps keep them busy so that
19:12
they're not in front of a TV screen you
19:14
know so that's how we do it not because
19:16
we feel like we have to for Christmas
19:18
because that's not what Christmas is
19:19
about so we try to find ways to make
19:22
Christmas special outside of the gift
19:23
giving just really really spending time
19:25
together as a family and talking about
19:28
Jesus as what Christmas is about not the
19:30
not the toys any who I hope that you
19:34
