Did you know that Baby Einstien has been around for 10 years? I can’t believe it either. Granted, my oldest child is only going to be five, so I’ve only been able to enjoy them for half the time they have been around. That being said I love baby Einstein and all of their products. We own a ton of Baby Einstein DVDs and books. I can totally see how they are the #1 selling infant DVD line. The best part of their DVDs is that they are timeless. Madison will still watch the DVDs with her little brother Will (who is now 18 months old). Their DVDs are some of the best ones out there in my opinion. Not only do they entertain your children, they also learn from them. You can easily interact with your children and talk about what’s on the screen. It is almost amazing how memorized little kids get while watching these DVDs. I also love that their music collection. We have used their Lullaby Classics CD with both of my children. Baby Enstein’s book collection is also great. Their books are very interactive. They include your children as part of the story and require your children to interact with the book. For example, in Touch and Feel Farm animals, they are able to feel a sheep’s wool, a cow’s nose, and a horses mane. Will is very much into textures right now, so this is one of his favorite books. Madison still reads their See and Spy shapes book! Each page asks you to look for a count certain items, and no matter how many times we do it, she still loves it!
Having been a huge fan of Baby Einstein for 5 years, I can only tell you that I highly recommend all of their products. We have yet to have a product of theirs that we didn’t like. Their products make great presents for you kids, a baby shower, or just for the fun of it.

Huru Humis will be one of the big gifts that everyone is going to want for Christmas this year. They are made for children ten and up. However, my 4 year old and 1 year old love them too. Each Huru Humi has its own name and distinct personality. Their interests range from sports to journalism. We have two of them, and I swear I have teenagers living in my house now. If I don’t check, Madison has been sneaking them into her bed with her at night too.
The reason I like these is that they interact with you. You are able to ask them questions, and they actually will respond to you. The other cool thing is that if you put two Huru Humis next to one another, they start talking to one another! They will have a whole conversation with or without you. These definitely teach your kids many social skills. It shows them how to have a conversation, not to interrupt, and have differing opinions. They are fairly easy to use, so kids of all ages will be able to use them. If you quite talking to them, they even try to get your attention. Another feature that my kids love is that their hair and outfits are interchangable too.
I have already seen commercials for these on, I think, Nick Jr or one of those kid stations, so you know this is going to be big. Each Huru Humi costs $29.99 and can be purchased at Walmart, Target, Kmart and Toys R Us. However, if you do not want to wait to get one of these, I was able to get not 1, not 2, but 3 of these to giveaway to my lucky readers. Now, two will be given away randomly. The third one will be randomly given away among the people who make a Huru Humi video.
