iRULU 8 Inch Google Android 5.1 Lollipop Tablet PC

I'm really impressed with this iRULU 8 inch Google Android 5.1 Lollipop Tablet.  I haven't had an Android tablet in awhile.  This one has been awesome.  I really like how easy it is to use.  It's just a bigger, better version of my phone.  If you have an Android phone you'll know how to use the Android tablet.  If you don't have an Android phone it's easy to use.  There are so many apps you can download from the Google Play store. But let me tell you about the tablet.



Pros:
- Running Android 5.1 Lollipop 
- 16 GB Storage expandable through microSD slot
- Front and Back cameras
- 1.3GHZ Quad-Core Processor
- Battery Life
- Mic

Cons:
- Speaker on the back instead of the side.

So far that's the only con I've been able to find on this tablet.  But if you're using headphone you can't tell the difference.  I haven't had any problems loading my games and playing them on the tablet instead of on my phone.  I also use Skype for work and to have it on the tablet works so much better for me.  I won't have to stay stuck to the computer now.  I love that you can even use the front camera to send messages on Skype.  There's an external mic as well so you can't have to have a headset or even an extra mic to plug in to use Skype.  The battery life on this tablet is great too!  Like all other electronic devices you want to charge your device right out of the box.  Once I got a full charge on it I used it on and off all day yesterday.  During my off times I would of course put it to sleep, but it was still running.  I did this on purpose to run the battery down.  Finally (without going into battery saver mode) it died at night.  I would say I got 5+ hours of total running time.  What I do like is there is a power saving mode that will ask if you want to use at a certain point.  It's said to save an extra 90 mins on your battery.  I didn't do it because I wanted my battery to be totally drained before I charged it again.  This is a great little tablet and would make a great Christmas present!

I got this tablet from Amazon, where you can get yours too.

WolVol Toys for Christmas!!!!

I was given an awesome opportunity to review some really fun toys.  Here they are....

WolVol Bathtub Basketball Hoop Bath Toy with Viewing Mirror and 3 Colorful Balls


This WolVol Bathtub Basketball Hoop Bath Toy was a big hit!  I got it for my nephew who is 3 and it sometimes is a challenge for my sister to get him to take a bath.  Now he love to take one as long as he can play with his basketball hoop.  This Bathtub Hoop is well made and easy to put together.  My hoop came with 3 balls in colors pink, green and purple.  The mirror on the backboard is perfect so he can see how clean he's getting.  I like how the basket is closed in the bottom which I like, so that little ones don't going to chasing the balls and slip and get hurt.  What's also great is that the basket can be used to hold other toys after he gets through with his bath time.  There are also other options to the back board that you can get from WolVol.  There's a hippo or a bird background.  I like the mirror so my nephew can see himself while he plays and washes.





WolVol Electric Police Car Toy with Lights and Sirens


The WolVol Electric Police Car was a hit!  I have a nephew who is 5 that loves anything that has to do with cars or trucks and I just had to give this to him.  It does require 3 AA batteries so you'll want to have those handy before you get the car toy.  His birthday was the other day so this was his present and he was so excited!  I had put batteries in it for him so he wouldn't have to wait to play with it.  He turned it on and let it go and giggled.  It's bump and go so everything it hit it would switch directions.  I loved how loud it was and all the flashing lights.  (My sister used to get my kids the most annoying loud toys when they were little, now it's payback!)  The little police men in the car are 3D and look like they move.  If he wants to play with it without it going all over the place there is also a little protector you can put on the bottom wheels that make it go around.  This will allow your child to play with it like a real car, but what's the fun in that.  I say turn it on and let it go, you have entertainment for hours!  It's well constructed and ready for lots of bump and turns. 







WolVol Kids Full Band Electronic Toy Musical Instruments with Colorful Lights, Piano Keyboard, Guitar, Trumpet (with volume controls) - All batteries are included


This 3-Piece Kids Full Band by WolVol is so much fun!  Each instrument plays tunes as well as lets you play your own notes so you can play alone with the tune if you want to.  The trumpet has three songs it plays with the three trumpet keys to play your own notes on.  It has 3 different songs it plays.  The songs kind of sound like they are being played on a trumpet (the closest you can get to being electronic).  The guitar plays 5 different tunes.  You can strum along with them if you want.  The piano plays 5 different songs and of course you have several keys to play with the music there.
I love how each of the instruments are true to that instrument, like playing the three keys on the top of the trumpet, having the strings to strum on the guitar, and having both the regular and sharp keys on the piano.  All 3 of the instruments have lights that flash while you're playing as well.  With the guitar if you push down on that handle under the strings it flashes even more lights!  Each instrument has a control button that turns it on, this button also has a volume control on it.  You can turn it from off to low to high.  Each instrument comes with batteries already in them, but they are not rechargeable so at some point will have to be changed out.  I think out of the three instruments my favorite has to be the guitar!  This is a great set to have, especially if you have more then one child.














 I received all these product at a discount in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.

Professional Colored Pencils

These Professional Colored Pencils from Senhai are awesome!  I didn't know what color pencils were supposed to be like, but if these pencils are what the professionals use I won't buy anything else.  They color so smoothly.  I love the array of colors they come in.  You get 48 different colors in all shades.  The pencils have the color of the lead on the end so you'll know what it will look like when you get through using it.  The colors do blend well and they have a smooth texture so they look nice on whatever medium you're using.  I've recently discovered the calming of coloring in adult coloring books so that's what I've been using them for.  The way they color makes it easy to get into a zen place.  The only trouble I have is deciding which color to use next.  My daughter saw them the other day and took them to do a school project.  I almost lost them!  She loved them as well and was going to keep them but I got them back from her and next time she can use the cheaper ones I have in the drawer.  These are mine and I'm going to keep them put up so she can't get to them.

You can get yours on Amazon.

SeedAudio Ultimate In Ear Headphones

My kids are always needing ear buds so I'm always having to get new ones.  I don't know what they do with them...I think they eat them.  I got these earbuds to test out and I really like the bass in them.  There was an issue with one side not playing but when I turned the plug it did come back on.  I don't know if that was my connection on my phone or if was the earbuds.  This isn't a problem for me though.  I like that these are noise cancelling and that the only thing you hear is the music.  I love to be able to tune the kids and the world out from time to time and get things done.  These earbuds fit comfortably in your ears. I can wear these for a long time without thinking about them being in or hurting.  I like the colors they come in as well, there is a grey or a brown so you can get the pair to best fit your personality, or that match what you're wearing if you're one of those people who have to be color coordinated.

I got mine on Amazon.

Valdler Exquisite Camellia Berries Flower Wreath Headband



Valdler Exquisite Camellia Berries Flower Wreath Headband is perfect for a lot of occasions. This is the second headband I have received from Valdler and they have both been just beautiful. This one has pretty lavender and purple flowers with the purple berries thrown in with them. The ribbon on the back is used to adjust the wreath so you can make it bigger if you need too. I have thick hair so I have to adjust it to fit. I modeled mine on my dog and thought how pretty she would be with it out in public. She likes going out and likes looking pretty...lol. The flowers are made of silk and the wreaths are created by hand so not all will be the same. They come shipped in a bag and when you take it out you need to adjust the flowers so they are full but the less materials they ship in the better the savings for you. These flower wreaths would be perfect for weddings, prom, parties or cos-play.

You can find your flower wreaths on Amazon
