Hasbro sent me a Play-Doh Ice Cream Castle Playset for free to play with and review. The opinions are our own. This is part of my #PlayLikeHasbro series.
Andrew loves Play-Doh. He always wants to play with it. The Ice Cream Castle Playset is adorable. There are a couple of places where you can extrude the Play-Doh to make ice cream for little bowls and cones. You can also make your own waffle cones in Play-Doh. There are a ton of little spots where you can make little pieces to put on the ice cream and a sprinkle maker. That is very fun. Andrew enjoyed it very much.
The set also comes with a special couple of cans of Play-Doh that are confetti type. I’ve never seen them like that before and it is a fun type of Play-Doh.
Christmas season continues with Andrew and I making a visit to Bass Pro Shops. Santa is there every year and he is a really good Santa. I’ve taken Andrew each year to get a photo with Santa. So, today we had time and we popped over there for lunch and a visit with Santa. But, before we went to Bass Pro Shops we stopped in at Trader Joe’s because I wanted to pick up a special chocolate bar. It contains pop rocks and chili powder. So it is dark chocolate, that fizzes and pops with a special heat.
At Bass Pro Shops We had lunch at Uncle Buck’s and then wandered the store. At first he didn’t want to visit Santa. So, instead we played with the Lincoln logs that were on display. We also colored together while I attempted to convince him to visit Santa. It wasn’t that he was afraid or anything. He just didn’t care either way. He also didn’t lend me any insight as to what he wanted for Christmas either.
But we were there so once the line was pretty well thinned we took our turn. Bass Pro has always done the free photos but this year they stepped things up and in addition to the photo there was also a great wooden frame. I was quite impressed.
Hanging out with Andrew lately has been really cool. He is such a funny kid. He is also picking up on everything and a lot of the good stuff, too. For example, we ware discussing a friend who had to cut off her hair. We talked about how people cannot control things about their appearance and they shouldn’t be judged on it. We talked about how the look of someone’s hair doesn’t matter. They are still the same person we know and love. So, I’m giving him a bath and he has a Playmobil boat with a woman and man. The woman’s hair was off. I thought ti had fallen off and I was fixing it and he stopped me and told me that he wanted top play with it like that because hair doesn’t matter. This kid is really taking it all in. Don’t ever use the word “ugly” in front of him, he’ll give you a lecture on tearing someone’s heart. He listened when I said that, too.
