Today was my last day in New York after Toy Fair 2014. I stayed an extra day in case I wanted to go back to the show floor in the morning (wasn’t that ambitious) but also to have lunch with a guy I’ve known online for a while now but have never met, Andrew Kardon of Mommy’s Busy, Go Ask Daddy.

We met for lunch over at Brother Jimmy’s in Midtown. That was after I packed up all of my Toy Fair Swag and shipped it home to myself via FedEx. There was may more than last year for me. I caught a cab which was the best plan because it was pouring out and headed to Brother Jimmy’s. Andrew and I have both done posts and giveaways from SteamPunk Goggles and we thought it would be fun and funny to meet up and take some photos while wearing them. It was.

We had a great time talking about all things geeky and blogging and movies and more. It was great to finally meet him in person and share a meal. I look forward to our next conversation.

They even have programs starting for kids as young as 1 year old. I’ll do a full write up of the program soon. Part of the program is a toy that helps Eva learn to tell time. She loves that thing already. Wanted to take it shopping with us. Continue reading Wonder Time with the Kids
