I’m going to do an in depth review of the Dino Construction Company toy that Andrew is posing with. I wanted to see how he’d do with photos with a product since this is a toy that he’ll be playing with.
I saw this toy at Toy Fair and immediately knew that this was something I had to try out. I approached the company right after Toy Fair but the finished products weren’t going to be ready till late June. So I contacted them again and they sent me the T-Rex version which is a skid loader. I really liked the look of the triceratops bulldozer one and if Andrew likes this one we might get him the triceratops for his birthday.
I was given a couple of the Mouth Man hoodies to try out and review. I picked a cute tree frog one for Eva and a fiery dragon for myself. The unique thing about these hoodies is that if you wrap your arms around yourself like you are giving yourself a hug and you can move your arms up and down like a mouth opening and closing you make the hoodie animated.
The hoodies look really great on kids. The head and the body are in proportion when kids do the arm motion and things look right. When I do the motion in my hoodie the arms are up too high so you still see the dragon’s head. But it is still a fun concept. Especially at a sporting event for rallying the team.
