Layla Grace Update

2009-11-25T10:10:00.000-07:00

On November 16th, Layla Grace began a 6 week hospital stay to undergo a High Dose Chemotherapy with Autologus Stem Cell Rescue, more commonly known as a Bone Marrow Transplant. This is the 2nd phase in Layla's treatment plan as she fights Neuroblastoma - an aggressive form of childhood cancer. Layla's story has touched so many lives and the response has been overwhelming. We have received several emails from people wanting to help, but not sure how.

Mom takes care of Layla at the hospital while Dad holds down the fort with Layla's two sisters. The easiest and most convenient way to help the entire family is by giving Visa Gift cards. These can be used at home or the hospital for various necessities (meals, gas, groceries, parking, etc). If you would like to donate, please send gift cards to Layla's PO Box at:

LAYLA GRACE MARSH

12320 BARKER CYPRESS RD, SUITE 600 #264
CYPRESS, TX 77429

You can also make monetary donations directly through PayPal at:

Go to http://www.texaschildrens.org/parents/patientgreeting/default.aspx

and simply fill out a card and it will be delivered directly to her room on her birthday. Be sure to include her full name, Layla Marsh, on the form. If you would like to send her balloons, they can be sent to room 847. Please make sure they are mylar - her floor prohibits latex. **Please do not send stuffed animals or flowers - she is not allowed to have them in her room.

Go to www.laylagrace.org to follow Layla on her journey. Please feel free to spread the word and forward this email onto your family and friends. Awareness is key to finding a cure!!

With the concerns we all have with toy safety, the new testing laws, and wanting to be sure that the toys we buy for our families during this holiday season will be not only safe but loved and used by our children, I'm excited to share some new resources with you.

The Toy Industry Association (TIA) is our industry's trade organization: the one that hosts Toy Fair in February in New York, and the one who has led American toy makers through the new toy safety testing laws and standards they must meet. And now, the TIA is reaching out to moms like us to help us understand how to buy safe, and great, toys. They created two websites for consumers. One is www.toyinfo.org. There's a neat video here that provides tips for shopping for safe toys and how to keep your children safe with their toys after they're home.

The site will be an ongoing source of news for parents, with regular updates. Check the home page often for new videos, to sign up for recall alerts, to learn about new safety initiatives and more!

'Tis the season to buy toys for the youngsters in your life, and TIA has another great new resource to help! A second website, found here, showcases the top toys in 11 product categories that have been nominated for the 2010 Toy of the Year Awards (TOTY). Well-recognized as the “Oscars®” of the toy industry, the coveted awards program is celebrating its 10th anniversary.

With multiple guided experiments your child is sure to learn and discover amazing things. Each experiment guides the child through the process and encourages them to record their results and draw conclusions about their discoveries. In the back of the experiment booklet there expected results and conclusions for your child to compare.

HABA for the Holidays!

2009-11-16T17:38:00.005-07:00

Ever heard of HABA? I have, and until recently I thought they were just a toy manufacturer! I had no idea they made high quality fantastically fun games as well. HABA is an amazing German company that has not sold out to cheap plastic parts and easily broken pieces. Their unique games prove to withstand the beatings of repeat play without a scratch.

We're big on games around here. In fact our game closet is a little ridiculous. We have tons and tons of games. We play tons and tons of games. My favorites are ones that involve cooperation and teamwork. Ones where my boys actually have to work together instead of "trying to win." There aren't too many of those around, so Castle Knights was really a refreshing discovery. Made for 2-4 players, ages 5-99 (I love that it goes to 99!), players use a special construction tool to build the castle towers. Really fun, really unique! Also, on sale, which makes it even better!

I recently spent some time browsing a great site that features an extensive HABA collection. Maukilo.com features only the finest European toys and has fantastic prices to boot! Their site is very easy to navigate and I love their "daily steal" which changes from day to day and features a great item with a significant discount.

You may want to alert Santa that www.maukilo.com would be a GREAT place to get some unique ideas!

Play This Way Every Day

2009-11-06T16:27:00.000-07:00

Developed by a Doctor and mommy of twins, this "U" shaped interactive floor mat is used to encourage children and their caregivers to play a variety of exercises with theme based cards. The card decks come in subjects such as: Animals, Foods, Dress, Outside, Play, Fruits & Vegetables, Go and Home.

This educational game can be used for fun at home or professional use for teachers, speech therapists, and moms who homeschool their children. The "U" shaped mat was developed for convenience, so the child wouldn't be knealing or stepping on the cards and the clear pockets makes it easy to slip the cards in and out and protect them from getting damaged. A great way to play in an education way!

Pressman Game Feature: Family Fun for Everyone!

2009-10-21T14:37:00.011-06:00

Looking for some super fun new games for the game cupboard? Let me introduce you to two that should definitely be on the shelves! Pressman has come out with two new games that will have everyone in the family doing something silly and something smart.

Let's start with the silly! When I first saw Ring Aro und the Nosy, my immediate reaction was, "Oh, I hope those masks fit on adults..." Well guess what? They do! This game is a hysterical blast and everyone we've played it with has had a ton of fun. Ring Around the Nosy can accommodate up to 4 players. Each player dons a lovely elephant mask, trunk and all. The game board is a square piece of cardboard where you lay your colored rings. Each "elephant" must use only their trunk (pretty tricky and a guaranteed laugh) to pick up their matching colored rings. The first player to pick up all 3 rings is the winner! The game is labeled for ages 5 and up, but we played with some three year olds and just modified the rules, they were able to use 2 fingers to help get the ring on and it worked just fine. The kids don't know it, but I think I might have to bring this game to the next "grown up" party we attend. I can only imagine the hilarity of it after the adults have had a few drinks...

Now for the smart! Rummikub was (and still is) one of my most all time favorite games. I remember playing it with my grandparents, parents, and friends too! Sometimes we'd play game after game for hours. I haven't played in a while, so when I saw Pressman's Rummikub for Kids I got super excited to share it with my boys, ages 5 & 8. This clever edition uses shapes, numbers & colors to help players learn sequencing which will prep them for the "grown up" version of Rummikub. There are 3 levels of play, so you can modify it to fit the needs of your children. This is a great option as my 8 year old needs more of a challenge than my 5 year old. However, if we are all playing together, we can play the "middle" version. Rummikub for Kids can be played with 2-4 players and is labeled ages 4 and up. If you are a Rummikub fan, this is a must have for your family. I love that it's a "thinking" game and really gets the brain going.

Visit the links below to purchase either of these terrific games! OH, and you might want to give Santa a heads up that either of these games would make great holiday gifts.

Looking for an original Halloween costume? Check out the latest costumes by Kangacoo Baby Designs. Kangacoo offers darling costumes from 0-3 months to 3T.

My daughter likes to have unique costumes. The fairy costume was right up her alley. The brightly colored, adjustable tutu and bright pink, fuzzy fairy wings were absolutely darling. The wings were also adjustable and able to be fitted so that they never slipped off her shoulders. The costume easily fits over any outfit. I found this very helpful since you never know what the weather will be like on Halloween.

Not only does Kangacoo make darling costumes, they also make the most stylish blankets and outerwear for toddlers. Kangacoo was founded by a mother after she was laid off while she was 3 months pregnant. All products are personally sewn by the designer, Katie Nquyen, in Orange County, California to ensure the quality and integrity of each item.

Visit kangacoo.etsy.com to see all the stylish costumes, blankets, and outerwear! Katie is also happy to take custom orders. Feel free to send your custom orders to Kangacoo@hotmail.com.

Move Over Nerf, Here's Something Tastier!

2009-09-30T12:21:00.008-06:00

Little boys love to play with toy guns, and The Marshmallow Shooter is the best by far! The Marshmallow Fun Company has created and extremely safe shooter. This Marshmallow Shooter can shoot 30 feet and hold up to 25 rounds of the yummiest and softest ammo ever.

The Marshmallow Fun Company was founded by a few parents after a riotous fun little boys birthday party. They discovered what a truly great product they had come up with and put attention to the littlest details.

Safety was their biggest concern. The Marshmallow shooter inflicts NO PAIN and causes NO MESS! This shooter will only shoot objects that can be compressed and regain shape. It WILL NOT shoot rocks, sticks, or even stale marshmallows! A target can be shot from close range with out any pain. I know this because my son sneaked up on me while I was doing dishes and shot me in the back from only a couple feet away.

This extremely safe Marshmallow Shooter is virtually mess free! While other shooters use lung power, this one uses compressed air. We had another marshmallow gun that fired the marshmallows by the shooter blowing hard into a pipe. Not only did it not go far, but the tube became sticky and would get clogged quickly due to the moisture in your breath. We've all seen a child blow out birthday candles and can see how much moisture comes out with each blow! The compressed air allows for mess free, rapid fire without becoming light headed. Should your shooter become dirty or sticky all parts that come in contact with the marshmallows can be disassembled and washed on the top rack or the dishwasher or hand washed in hot water.

This Marshmallow Shooter is so safe and easy to use even my 4 year old daughter got into the action! We had a blast running around our backyard having our own little marshmallow war.

Visit marshmallowville.com and check out all of their affordable and fun Marshmallow Shooters. While the Blue and Red Shooter is their Classic they have also come out with: a Cheetah Shooter, Daisy Shooter, Skull & Crossbone Shooter, Peace Shooter, Zebra Shooter, and Camo Shooter. There is a shooter for everyone. They have even come up with a Bow & Mallow Shooter and a Mazooka that shoots the larger marshmallows.

The Marshmallow Shooter can be found online at marshmallowville.com or Hammacher Schlemmer, Toys R Us, Drugstore.com and on Amazon.com.

A Magical Journey for Tiny Daners

2009-09-30T10:35:00.006-06:00

Prima Princess has come out with a new DVD just in time for the holiday season! You will fall in love with the new "Prima Princessa presents The Nutcracker" DVD.

This wonderful DVD introduces your little dancers to the beauty of The Nutcracker. With excerpts from the San Francisco Ballet performing the Nutcracker, your ballerinas are told the story as it is being preformed. The DVD is full of all the Christmas wonder. They will learn to understand how a story can be told through dance while being delighted with snow fairies, toy soldiers, ballerinas, and a sweet Sugar Plum Fairy!

The story of the Nutcracker is broken up into acts with breaks for your little ones to learn a few of the movements and practice themselves. They will learn the names for movements such as: passe, glissade, saute, and arabesque. The breaks are placed perfectly so that your little dancers can get their wiggles out and dance along as they enjoy the story of The Nutcracker.

My 4 year old daughter has fallen in love with this newest DVD. I see her practicing the ballet movements and using the correct words to describe her dance. She loves ballet and I have the Prima Princessa DVDs to thank for that.

My daughter wants to see the ballet live, and I couldn't of thought of a better way to introduce her to the fine arts during this holiday season. The "Prima Princessa presents The Nutcracker" has given my young daughter the understanding she needs to be able to enjoy and understand The Nutcracker live and in person.

If you have a little ballerina in your household you need to visit PrimaPrincessa.com. The DVD can be ordered from their website or at amazon.com.

Swanky Moms Please Help Layla Grace

2009-09-23T09:12:00.003-06:00

Layla Grace Marsh is almost 2 years old. Six months ago she was a happy, healthy 15-month-old girl living with her parents in Cypress, Tx. Now Layla is in a fight for her life, battling an extremely aggressive form of cancer.

At 16 months old, her sleeping habits and appetite changed, and she started to become more irritable. In May, when Layla woke up with a swollen eye and her parents took her to the doctor, they were told she had an ear infection. But her parents knew something else was wrong. They noticed her belly was hard and swollen, and she was not having bowel movements. Then Layla stopped eating. Still without a dirty diaper, the little girl became lethargic. The family was referred to a GI specialist and that’s when they got the news that no parents ever want to hear: Layla was suffering from Stage 4 Neuroblastoma.

Layla has a massive cancerous tumor extending from above her left kidney, around her side, over her belly and wrapping around her aorta. The cancer has also attacked Layla’s bone marrow and bones. Six surgeries, five rounds of chemo, eight days on a ventilator, multiple blood transfusions and many lengthy hospital stays later, Layla is still fighting. She still has to undergo extensive radiation, a bone marrow transplant and six more months of chemo. She will also receive six experimental immunotherapy injections. These six injections are crucial to her treatment, and raise her survival rate from 30% to 40%. Because they are in the experimental phase, they are not covered by insurance and are $18,000 each.

You can show your support by purchasing a Layla Grace t-shirt for only $10. 100% of all t-shirt sales will go towards Layla's medical bills. Please email your order to fightforlayla@gmail.com and send payment via PayPal http://tinyurl.com/kvee97 by October 1st. If you have any questions, please email fightforlayla@gmail.com. You can follow Layla's progress at www.laylagrace.org and http://twitter.com/LaylaGrace. Thank you for your support and prayers!
