Save BIG on Fisher-Price Fridays

There are two things that make me very happy:
1) Seeing my Children Laughing and Learning 
and
2) Saving money

Well, those two things I love have united to bring you one seriously sweet deal.

Two brands that I trust and am loyal to, Fisher-Price and Babies“R”Us, are introducing Fisher-Price Fridays!
Starting every Friday in September, Fisher-Price will offer half price Friday deals for one day only.

The very first half price sale on ALL Fisher-Price Laugh & Learn toys will take place tomorrow Sept 6 in store and online at babiesrus.ca/fp (this site goes live on September 6th).

This couldn't have come at a more amazing time for us because this Saturday we celebrate our sons 1st Birthday! I will definitely be taking advantage of this amazing deal.

One example of a Fisher-Price Laugh & Learn Toy that I have been eyeing for him is this Laugh & Learn™ Crawl Around™ Car.

How adorable is it?

To Baby Brother, From Your Big Sis: Fisher-Price Favourites + Exclusive Discount Code

Nothing makes your realize more than ever how cherished life's moments are and how quickly these moments fly by then when you are looking through old photographs.

I'm actually glad I'm one of those mothers that love to snap a picture as often as I can -- you need to capture them before they're gone! You'll never get them back.

Another way to hold onto those moments are material items that have long endured the test of time and continue to serve a purpose in the lives of those you love.

Fisher-Price has launched a new site focusing on their 12 most favoured Toys of all time, Fisher-Price Favourites.

These toys have continued to grace the Mom's Must-Have Lists time and time again and as a mother with two little ones that own a few of those items, I can say that they all deserve to be up there.

One of those items that we first purchased 4 years ago and happened to be one of our daughter's ultimate favourite funny companion was the Original Fisher-Price Laugh & Learn Love to Play Puppy.

This puppy offers so much fun and educational entertainment for your child and my daughter loved singing and clapping along with "Head, Shoulders, Knees & Toes" and "Patty-Cake, Patty-Cake, Baker's Man." 

In fact, she learned to distinguish her Face & Body parts courtesy of the Laugh & Learn Love to Play Puppy.

In the photo above, you'll see a photo of my now 4 year old daughter, Ava, at 5-6 months old and her baby brother, Talan, now 6 months old on the right.

Although there has been some changes to this original puppy that we own, this one still works well and my son and loving it as much as his big sister did.

We always try and teach our children about pride of ownership and were so touched when our daughter took the puppy in her arms, hugged it tightly and handed it over to her baby brother saying, "You can have it now, Talan. I hope you love him as much as I did."

Yes, that almost drove me to tears (well, watery eyes, but close).

Giving up something you love is never easy, especially for children. But giving it someone you love even more, is well worth it. 

The Top 12 Fisher-Price Favourites include:

1. Ocean Wonders Aquarium

2. My Little Snugabunny Cradle N Swing
3. Infant to Toddler Rocker
4. SpaceSaver High Chair
5. Discover’n Grow Jumperoo
6. Brilliant Basics Rock a Stack
7. Laugh & Learn Love to Play Puppy
8. Laugh & Learn Say Please Tea Set
9. Laugh & Learn Click ‘n Learn Remote
10. Brilliant Basics Stroll-Along Walker
11. Little People Wheelies Stand ‘ n Play Rampway
12. Little People Animal Sounds Farm

What Makes a Fisher-Price Favourite?

• These toys have been tried & tested through the years, and year over year have been favourites of moms, not just in Canada, but World over.
• They have lasted through generations of kids, and continually pass not only the “Dr Alfono test”, but also the “kid test”!
• They encourage child development and support children in achieving important milestones.

On this list, another favourite is The Ocean Wonders Aquarium. 

This is another original that big sis owned for her crib, and has always helped her to keep calm whilst attempting to fall asleep.  We are now using it for our son's crib (4 years later and still working!) in hopes that it'll help him to get use to sleeping alone in it.  He's not really loving his crib and much prefers mommy next to him.

So far, it's been doing it's job!

After a year of infertility treatments... a MOMent I will cherish for a lifetime.

As a mother, I have surely experienced many MOMents of Joy.

Some, perhaps, not so "joyous", but still something to cherish nonetheless.
That's the great thing about Parenthood. Every day is a new day... to learn something new about our child and about ourselves.

Wouldn't it be great to go to a place online where you can visually share via photographs these wonderful Moments of Joy, whatever they may be, with other parents just like you?

Fisher-Price is creating an online space (website) where moms can come and commiserate by looking through (and adding their own) photos of the good, the bad, and most importantly, the REAL moments of motherhood we all experience… They can have a laugh, a cry, and a sigh of relief knowing that we’re all there, together.

Starting this week and throughout the next couple of months, you can share your Million Moments of Joy by uploading a picture, video or text to enter the contest and be eligible to win one of eight weekly prize packs!
