He’s Chosen the Jedi Path


Photo-A-Day #3699

Tonight when everyone came home Eva wanted to play with something so I took the build your own lightsaber toy from my latest Cooper & Kid Kit. This new kit is all about Light. I haven’t had time to really dive into it yet but there are some fun activities inside. Once Eva had played with the lightsaber Andrew wanted his turn. The lightsaber building kit is fun. You can switch out lenses to make the light more diffused or focused. You can also choose from 4 different colors. The one thing I wasn’t that impressed with was how easily the color crystals pop right out. They don’t stay in well at all. Sure this isn’t really a playable toy but rather a Science experiment but still. It would have been perfect if it was a bit bigger and if the crystals stayed in place.

Cars Themed Wild Walls by Uncle Milton

Wild Walls Cars

We received a Cars themed Wild Walls to use and review. Opinions of it are 100% our own.

Andrew enjoys the movie Cars very much. He can recognize Lightning McQueen easily and shout his name. When we received the Wild Walls Cars set he shouted “McQueen!” and was very excited about it. Then I let him push the button and hear the sounds and see the lights. He is 2 1/2 so he wanted to push that button over and over and over.

I brought the box up to his room and opened the package. I read through the instructions which recommend that you lay out the decal sheet for 24 – 48 hours so that the sheet lays flat. It comes all rolled up and by laying it flat you will have an easier time keeping the decals stuck to the walls. Take care when removing the decals as some parts of them seemed to be not as perforated as others.

Wild Walls Cars on the Wall

I installed the unit on the wall and this has quickly become a fun nighttime activity for Andrew. I put the unit up slightly out of his reach so that I need to pick him up to push the button. Or so I thought, He uses a little step stool to boost himself up and push the button and we have awoken to sounds of race cars on more than one morning. Luckily you can set the unit to just do lights and the sounds aren’t crazy loud.

All in all a good little way to dress up a child’s room with their favorite characters. You can find Wall Friends at select Target stores as well as on Target.com. There are a variety of characters including Cars, Toy Story and more.
