New York Ravioli & Pasta Company, Jolie Ravioli Review and Giveaway!!!

6Form_header

My little ones are picky eaters.  It sometimes seems like if I let them, they would eat the same things over and over.  They are reluctant to try new things for the most part, but they are getting better.  I recently made some Jolie Cheese Ravioli for them.  We’re Italian and they love their pasta!  Cheese ravioli were always a favorite of mine as a child and my kids are no different.

Jolie Ravioli

The ravioli cooked in about 9 minutes and I served them with tomato sauce and fresh grated Parmesan cheese.  I never saw my 6-year-old eat so fast and eat everything on his plate!  My four-year old was not far behind.  Mom had a taste too and they were delicious and tasted as good as any gourmet cheese ravioli that I’ve ever had.  I was happy to see that the ravioli stayed perfectly sealed during the cooking process so the cheese stayed tucked inside.  The shapes were fun for the kids and would be great to serve at birthday parties or kids play dates.

Jolie Ravioli

They have other great flavors like Cheese & Broccoli, Mac & Cheezy and Pizza-Rolis.  The 100% natural ravioli is an excellent source of protein and calcium and there are no trans fats, preservatives, artificial colors or additives.    The teddy bear, car, dinosaur, heart, rocket ship and star shapes are fun for kids and would be great to serve at birthday parties, holiday parties or kid’s play dates.  Try some today with your kids, I am certain they will love them as much as you will!!! Click HERE for a money-saving coupon for your retail store or purchase Jolie Ravioli in their online store along with their other pasta products HERE!  To see if there is a store that carries New York Ravioli & Pasta Company Products click HERE for  a listing.

Wonder Forge,Richard Scarry’s Busytown Eye Found It! Game Review & Giveaway!!! #HolidayGiftGuide

wonder-forge-logo
Thanksgiving weekend we had a lot of great family time.  It was much-needed and greatly enjoyed.  We took a lot of time to play and just sit and talk.  My husband and I played Richard Scarry’s Busytown Eye Found It! Game with our little guys.
It’s a great game that has a huge board that connects in three pieces.  The game is very interactive and keeps little ones engaged.  In the game you need to get everyone on the ferry and to the picnic before the pigs eat all the food. Along the way you solve mysteries and race through Busytown.  We all enjoyed searching for the objects to find as many as we could before the timer ran out.
Mommy Ramblings things Richard Scarry’s Busytown Eye Found It!  is a great game and we are adding it to our 2013 Holiday Gift Guide!!!  You can buy Busytown Eye Found It!  at Amazon.com.
Richard Scarry's Busytown Eye Found It! Game
Richard Scarry's Busytown Game

Race around town solving mysteries! How many objects can you find? Join Huckle Cat and Lowly Worm on a fun-filled race around Busytown to solve mysteries and find hidden objects. Drive through lively city streets, an activity-filled farm, an action-packed airport, and a bustling harbor full of silly boats. There’s much to discover on this gigantic, colorful game board that’s over six feet long! As players race through Busytown, they’ll team up every time someone lands on Goldbug—leaving no corner of the board unexplored as they discover hidden objects and race toward Picnic Island. With hundreds of objects to find this game provides hours of fun, while building confidence each time a child says, “I found it!”

How Many Can You Find!?
Pig Will and Pig Won’t are on a mission to eat all the food on Picnic Island! Using the illustrated, over six-foot long game board, you’ll work as a team to make it to Picnic Island before they eat the food! Work together with other players to find hidden objects like buckets, traffic lights, flags, or ladders! Everyone gets a chance to say, “I Found It!”—the faster you find the hidden objects the faster you’ll move! How to play, snapshot!After setting up the game board, placing the ferry at the end of the road, and the food items on Picnic Island, everyone chooses a mover. On your turn, the spinner will tell you to move, take away one food item from Picnic Island and spin again, or solve a Goldbug Mystery! To solve a Goldbug Mystery you flip a Goldbug Card and work as a team to find the item on that card on the game board. For each item your team finds you get to move forward a space. To win, all players must be on the ferry and arrive at Picnic Island before the pigs eat all the food.

Lost And Found DVD-A Magical Tale of Friendship Giveaway For 3 Winners!!! #HolidayGiftGuide

BASED ON THE BEST-SELLING BOOK FROM CELEBRATED AUTHOR/ILLUSTRATOR OLIVER JEFFERS COMES A MAGICAL TALE OF FRIENDSHIP AND ADVENTURE, WINNER OF MORE THAN 60 INTERNATIONAL AWARDS!

Lost and Found

LOST AND FOUND 

 

Families will embark on an imagination-inspiring journey alongside a pair of unlikely companions when LOST AND FOUND, the deeply-heartwarming and critically-acclaimed animated film, arrived in the U.S. for the first time ever on DVD (SRP $9.98) and Digital platforms on October 15, 2013 from Entertainment One and is available now to place on every child’s Holiday Gift List!  A Winner of more than 60 international awards, as well as a coveted Parents Choice Gold Award, LOST AND FOUND will also air as a holiday special on Nick Jr.®

Based on the internationally best-selling children’s book by award-winning author, Oliver Jeffers, whose newest book has just captured the #1 spot on the New York Times Best Sellers list, the standout production was adapted and directed by Philip Hunt and features endearing narration by Academy Award®-winner Jim Broadbent (Harry Potter, Gangs of New York, Moulin Rouge), stunning CGI animation from Studio AKA, and a charming musical score by esteemed composer Max Richter (Shutter Island).  LOST AND FOUND brilliantly transports viewers from the 2D pages of the storybook to a rich and immersive world that will have both young and old alike mesmerized and brought to tears.  With more than five dozen international awards under its cap, the remarkable film is sure to find its way into audiences’ hearts with its universal and timeless message of the true value of friendship.

Lost and Found 2

Originally inspired by the real-life story of a little boy in Belfast, Ireland, who somehow managed to sneak a penguin out of the zoo during a class trip and all the way home to his bathtub before anyone noticed, LOST AND FOUND tells the unforgettable story of a little boy who one day finds a penguin on his doorstep.  Assuming that the unexpected visitor must have lost his way, the thoughtful and determined boy takes up the noble task of bringing the penguin back home – even if it means rowing all the way to the South Pole! But when the pair finally arrive at their destination, the boy soon discovers that maybe the penguin wasn’t really lost after all.  Maybe he was just lonely… And maybe he wasn’t the only one.

Lost and Found 1

Gentle and uplifting in equal measure, LOST AND FOUND provides families with a welcome alternative t0 today’s more frenetic on-screen entertainment options for kids. In addition to the movie, the DVD contains a special “Making of” featurette, showcasing interviews with Jeffers, as well as key members of the production and creative teams. The segment offers viewers a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at the various elements that seamlessly come together to bring this dynamic film to memorable life.

“Lost and Found should serve as an example to all children’s filmmakers

that kids don’t need a fast-paced cartoon or disrespectful characters to become engaged in a story. The pace of the 30-minute production is perfect,

as is everything else about it.”

— Parents Choice (Gold Award Winner)

Entertainment One is sponsoring a giveaway on Mommy Ramblings.  Three lucky blog readers will win their own LOST AND FOUND DVD.  Thank you Entertainment One for the review DVD and for sponsoring this heartwarming giveaway on Mommy Ramblings!!! Open to US residents.
