How Its Made is a show on the Discovery Channel and The Science Channel. It is show that all ages can watch and they show you how things are made. You can see everything from cheap glasses to candy canes. I have to admit that the candy cane show was one of the coolest. They didn’t make it they way I though they would. It starts off as huge chunks (like 100 lb. chunks of candy). I find it interesting to learn how everyday items (and some not so everyday items) are made. Madison even enjoys this show!

Not technologically inclined enough to use a plasma cutter? Then this universal remote is for you! My mom bought these for my husband, my dad, and my brother in law for Christmas this year. After the good laugh, we tried it out, and they actually do work really well!

The remote itself is about 11 inches long so you don’t ever have to worry about losing it. Ever. You are able to control up to 8 different devices with this remote. It has a hassle free code search button which discovers the device codes automatically, so you don’t have try and look them all up. The buttons are huge, so if you wear glasses, you won’t even need them! I also love that fact that there is a sleep timer set up also. We are good at this house for falling asleep with the TV on all the time.

If you are in the market for a great gag gift or need a remote you can’t possibly lose, this is it!
