Photo-A-Day #3384

Tonight our good friend Meghan came over for dinner. We picked up some steak tips from Bob’s Market as well as some salad and some Narragannsett Shandy beer. Meghan brought over ice cream and made her family’s secret chocolate sauce recipe. Yeah you could eat it with a spoon on its own it was soo good.

Allison put the kids to bed and we chatted for a while and then American Ninja Warrior came on. I’m not one for Reality Shows but this is simply incredible. The courses are crazy and the people participating are incredibly in shape. The whole show they teased that a woman who had been the first to conquer the vertical curved wall was going to try this latest course and she CRUSHED it! We were really excited for her. I wish we taped it to show Eva what was possible if you worked hard. Eva got inspired after the last time she watched American Ninja Warrior and made little courses in the back yard. She had fun.

App Alert, Disney

App Alert: Squish: Mickey Mouse Clubhouse

Mickey Mouse Clubhouse has had a second life in our home. My daughter enjoyed it when she was younger and my son has recently discovered the show. Since he enjoys the show I introduced him to this new Mickey Mouse Clubhouse app called Squish. It has kept him occupied for a while and he continues to have fun with this simple silly game.

Basically you get clay versions of some of the Mickey Mouse Club characters and you can blow them up, melt them and twist them but they will go back to their original shape and you can try again. There is also an option to take photos of your squish creation and add all sorts of accessories to what you have created. It is a fun cute little app.

Today, Disney Publishing unveiled “Squish: Mickey Mouse Clubhouse,” the next app in its growing collection of creativity-based apps where children and families can sculpt and squish anything your imagination can dream up!

“Squish: Mickey Mouse Clubhouse” invites kids to stretch, push, and pull clay to make Mickey or Minnie, or start from scratch with dozens of fun clay shapes from the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse universe. Once finished, you can twist, inflate, and melt your creation using fun and unique Squishers.

Additional features include:

  • 3D clay molds of Mickey and Minnie with easy-to-use sculpting tools
  • Character molds and shapes that help little ones make their favorite characters from the show
  • Unique Squishers: the “Twisterator,” the “Melter,” and the “Inflaterator”
  • Kids can save their clay creations to the Gallery to show-off to their family and friends
