Magic Jinn
Hey guys!! I am a BzzAgent. What's that? Well, according to their website HERE They are the Leading social marketing company. They put the products in the hands of hundreds of thousands of REAL customers (Just like me) and have us share our opinions of the different products. We can and do use anything to get the word out there on a product. I am NOT paid for MY OPINIONS. I can say whatever I feel about a product. If I don't like it, then that is what I say. If I like it or love it... well, then I say that. Again, I am not being compensated for my opinion. No one is influencing me on my opinions either!! They are mine (and my families)... no one else's!!! If I have a friend or other children around while I review these products, you'll know about it. If my kids have their opinions of it, you'll know about it! I'll keep you in the loop, and give you the 411. LOL
I receive the products free of charge... All I have to do is go to their website HERE and when there are survey's available, I just fill them out honestly. They use those surveys and figure out which products would be best for my family and I to try out. They send me an e-mail and suggest that I try this Campaign or that Campaign. If I'd like to try that particular product out, then I accept. Some of the times they'll send you the products in the mail, and other times they don't need to. For Example... I accepted their Campaign about Redbox Instant By Verizon (check out my blog post HERE). They didn't need to send me anything in the mail. I just went to their website through the link that BzzAgent sent me. This time, they sent me my product in the mail...
So, have you guys heard of Magic Jinn? Yeah, me neither. It is a relatively NEW toy by Hasbro. It is for ages 6+ and for only 1 player (although, my girls and I have done it together as a family) You think of any animal... Yes... ANY ANIMAL and then Magic Jinn asks you questions to try and guess which animal you are thinking of. You'll answer his questions with: Yes, No, I Don't Know, or It Depends. There are a few times that you'll need to say: Ok, Say It Again, and Go Back. I do have to say that it takes 3AAA Batteries that weren't included in the box.
I had no idea what it was or what it did. I didn't see any Magic Jinn's in my local stores, but I did Google it... Found a few stores online that sold it. (Wal-Mart apparently does... still haven't seen Magic Jinn in My local Wal-Mart!!) I decided that my girls (ages 6 and 3 1/2) would probably enjoy it, as well as myself. :) If not, then my 14 month old would probably get a kick out of a toy just talking!
The blue one, (which I've found is the only one that you can seem to purchase anywhere online) tries to guess which animal you are thinking of. After Googling images of Magic Jinn, I've noticed that there seem to be two other colors Purple (Food and Drinks) and Yellow (couldn't find what this one guesses)
I have found that they are available for purchase at:
Hasbro Toy Shop $19.99 each
Amazon $19.99 each
Toys R Us $19.99 each
Kmart $21.99 each
Target $19.99 each
I am sure that they are available at several other stores; however, these are just the more popular stores that I can think of.
He's not very big... I couldn't find a ruler (No idea why I couldn't find one... I have bought several in the past, and have kids that use them... Think I could find one when I needed it??? NOPE) So instead I used a sharpie... We have all used them, so why not. It's a great frame of reference I think.
My 6 year old tried this product. It could understand her, and after several attempts at guessing her animal (Giraffe) Magic Jinn guessed it. A few of the animals that it thought it was were animals that I had no idea of what the animals were. For example... a Dromedary.. HU?!?!?! I had to look it up online... It's a Camel. LOL So guess if you try and find an unknown animal, research it a bit, and see if Magic Jinn can think of it... Try it out. After learning what a Dromedary was, I wonder if it knows several animals. :)

Bluum Box 14 Month Old Boy- August 2013
First, I want to say that we were out when this came in the Mail. I always let my son walk up to the door with me, he saw this box, smiled and giggled, and went for it. He picked it up and walked in the house with it. He was SOOO EXCITED to receive it. He knew it was for him!!
Bluum is a monthly subscription box that is geared towards the age and gender of your baby/toddler.
Price
Monthly- $24.95
3-Month- $74.85 paid up front
6-Month- $125.00 paid up front (about $20.83/month)
12- Month- $249.50 paid up front (about $20.79/month)
If you visit their link HERE and sign up for your own subscription box, we will both receive 15 points. (once you have 500pts you will receive a FREE BOX!!!!)
When little ones grasp and pull the two halves of this wooden toy, the adorable animals "stretch" to reveal surprise friends! With a different animal pair on each side, this wooden baby and toddler toy is lots of fun to pull open, click closed and turn around again and again. Classic styling and wooden construction make First Play Slide & Seek Safari an ideal first-birthday present, and a wonderful challenge for little ones working on hand-eye coordination and motor skills. It's beautifully designed, durably made and full of playtime ideas for parents and babies to share!
This item was not in my box, but on their website it stated that it should have. I have e-mailed them. We will see what their response is.
Here's their response to my e-mail:

REVIEW OF THE PRODUCTS
Can't miss local events for families. Three times a week. A weekly deal for kids and moms of 50% off or more, and they will never share your e-mail, and you can subscribe at any time.
You have to choose your state... There are only 14 and neither the state that I live in, nor the one that I'm moving to in the next few months are listed. :(
Here is the states that are listed however: Arizona, California, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Missouri, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, and Wisconsin.
Island Picnic - Reusable Sandwich/Snack Bag
$20.00 for 2 of them
On sale for $17.00 for 2.
Mine cost $10.00
Each and every one of our products is made in our home on Florida's Gulf Coast from 100% certified organic cotton fabrics and yarns, and all of our colored fabrics have been dyed with either organic, low-impact, or vegetable-based dyes and inks. We also try and use the most eco-friendly notions we can find, so if there is organic thread available in the color we need, we use it!
***They have 19 different ones to choose from***
My botto - Inverted Bottle Holder
$7.99 for 2.
I received 1. So about $4.00 for mine
Fact is, 25% of all lotions, potions, glues and gels are left unused in bottles simply because product is stuck in the bottom. With mybotto inverted bottle holder, you can flip bottles upside down, and let gravity finish the job: every last ounce slides right to you. This fun and stylish home accessory lets you save lotion, save money and put fewer lotion bottles in the trash. It fits on any countertop in your bathroom, workroom or nursery. Whether your bottle holds 4 or up to 40 ounces, mybotto does the trick.
***My Review*** After reading the box, I now know what it's for. LOL... Going to try this with my lotion bottle. Sounds like a great accessory. This will really get some use!!
Momma - Spill Proof Cup - Green
(can't purchase here, just more information. They do have a link to where they are sold though)
(Mine doesn't have handles like the one at Wal-Mart's link, but other then that, it's the same)
$9.86/ bottle
New spill-proof technology prevents leaks and eliminates the hassle of cleaning multiple parts. The pliable soft spout has a closed design that opens only when baby drinks from the spout! Safe and hygienic the protective cover and rocking movement prevent the spout from coming into contact with surfaces.
Happy Family - Happy Tot Greek Yogurt
(can't purchase their, but they do have a like to say where they do)
$14.32/ pack of 8
So mine is $1.79
Launched on Mother’s Day 2006, and founded and operated by moms, Happy Family™ is the first organic brand to offer a complete line of nutrient-rich foods for babies’, toddlers’, and kids’ growing bodies. Constantly innovating, Happy Family has been a pioneer in the industry, adding extra nutrition to its products—like Salba®, the super chia, probiotics, and Choline for brain health—whenever possible. the company's products are consistently recognized for superior taste and nutrition. Happy Family believes that every baby deserves to be a happy baby. With every product sold, the company supports Project Peanut Butter, a nonprofit that feeds starving children in Africa.
Melissa And Doug - Slide & Sleek Safari Baby & Toddler Toy
$5.99 each (this is one toy, just front and back)
Happy Family - Happy Munchies Rice Cake - Apple
(again, can't purchase them online, but they do have a link to where you can)
$29.90 for 10
(that's just online. I'm sure you can purchase them individually at the store)
So mine was $2.90
Give your little one a nutritious snack with this ten-pack of delicious apple rice cakes. Made with whole grain puffed brown rice and lightly sweetened with fruit juice, these mini cakes are organic and contain no artificial colors or flavors. Their miniature size makes them perfect for little hands, helping your child learn independent eating skills. Their firm but gentle texture also provides comfort for teething babies.
Luna - Fiber Bar - Vanilla Blueberry
Fiber just got a serious taste-lift in the form of LUNA Fiber; the fiber bar you’ll actually crave. 70% organic and available in three fruit-filled shades of delicious.
This item was not in my box, but on their website it stated that it should have. I have e-mailed them. We will see what their response is.
Here's their response to my e-mail:

Goodies.co Taster's Box August 2013
Goodies.co is a monthly subscription box that costs only $7. You'll receive 5-8 items in each box and there are two different boxes. Tasters and Kids. (The Kids box is brand new and this is their first month... They did send some out last month to a select number of individuals but I believe it was this exact box.)
They are thinking of having two more boxes come out in the future: a Gluten Free Box, and a Healthy Box. They didn't list when or if they would be coming out with them, just that they are thinking of it... Noticed though that several of the items in the Kid's Box were Gluten free though.
According to their about page "If you're anything like us, you often find yourself thinking, "I'm so tired of eating the same old thing." But branching out can be difficult. Why? Because trying new snacks are expensive, time-consuming and risky. What if it doesn't taste good? It's money down the drain, not to mention a dull and very disappointing meal... that's where Goodies Co. comes in."

REVIEW OF THE ITEMS IN TASTER'S BOX
Pronto Coffee (Southern Pecan)
$5.99/6 packages
So, my single package is about $1.00
As bold and delicious as freshly brewed coffee, this concentrated liquid coffee is ready – pronto. Simply stir into 10-oz of hot or cold water and enjoy the complex flavor of 100% Arabica beans with delicious nutty, buttery notes.
Poplets (Sea Salt & Butter)
$8.94
On sale for $6.24
6 packs of the 2.7oz
So, my single pack is about $1.49 and on sale for about $1.04.
You know the crunchy half-popped kernels at the bottom of each popcorn batch? The ones with crisp, concentrated corn flavor and a healthy dose of butter and sea salt? Yeah, here’s a whole bag of those perfect, delicious morsels. You’re welcome.
These were good yes... However, I can just get them when I eat some popcorn from the bottom of the bag. I don't see myself just buying a bag of these. Yes, they were soft and not as hard as the ones that are un-popped in the bottom of the bag, that is a plus. But I'm not a huge fan of them in the first place. Maybe they're better off for someone who thinks the un-popped kernels are the best part of popcorn!
Nature Valley (Granola Thins Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter)
$2.98/box of 10
So, my packages is about $0.30
Thin, crisp, sugar-kissed whole grain oat squares laced with roasted peanuts and a fine layer of rich dark chocolate. This is everything you could ask for in a snack: sweet, crisp, subtly salty and satisfying. All for just 80 calories!
Betty Crocker (Hershey's Chocolate Chunk)
$2.28/box
Betty Crocker and Hershey’s join forces for a cookie mix that’s nothing short of sublime. For cookie perfection, add softened butter and water and bake. Just-crisp edges meet a soft, chewy center rife with chunks of chocolate chips.
Fiber One 90 Calorie (Chocolate Fudge Brownie)
$2.98/box of 6
So, my single package is about $0.50
Don’t think a brownie can be healthy? Try Fiber One’s rich, chewy, chocolate-chip studded fudge brownie and think again. At just 90 calories and with 20% of your daily value of fiber, it’s a smart way to indulge your sweet tooth.
Mott's Meadleys (Assorted Fruit)
$3.98/box of 24
So, my package is about $0.17
Made with real fruit and vegetable juice, these tasty fruit snacks are sweet, chewy and flavorful. Apple, pear and carrot juice lend natural sweetness to the fun fruit-shaped chews. They’re loaded with Vitamin C and just 80 calories per pouch.
My children and I are already fans of the Mott's fruit snacks. It was great to have it in the box. They LOVED THEM!!! Even my 14 month old enjoys them. He can't get enough!
Tangy Zangy Twisties (Sour Wild Berry)
$???? No price... It's just a list of where you can buy them
Prepare your taste buds for a super sour experience! These gummy twists of vibrant red and blue are tart and chewy with wild berry flavor. Just enough of a sugary dusting restores balance to your puckered palate. How sweet (and sour) it is!
Well, they were good. I'll say that. I'm a fan of sour things, so after I tried it I figured that I just couldn't tell. My 14 month old son wanted one, so I figured why not. He tries everything else. He didn't even make a face when he ate it. So, I'm going to say that these weren't sour at all. I'm pretty sure a 14 month old would make a face still if it were sour.
Want to check out my other Goodies.co Taster Box reviews???? Check them out via the links bellow!!
June's Box This one isn't actually a box... I was to late to receive June's box, so I just ordered a few items off of their shop!!
July's Box This is their Subscription Box for the Month!!!
Want to check out my Kid's Box for this month? Check it out Here.
Excluding the Tangy Zangy Twisties, my Taster's box comes to about $5.74... Okay, so less than the $7 I paid for the box. I realize that most of the items you can buy at Wal-Mart, but Goodies.co is a Wal-Mart brand and not a separate company. I like the idea of all the items, so just because the value of the box is less than what I paid for it... I think I'll continue on with the subscription.
So, Until Next Time,

My children LOVE THESE!!!! We haven't ever tried the Vanilla as my 6 year old tells me. I think though that they'll will be a hit with them also!!

My package = about $0.71
Crisp, crunchy and loaded with semi-sweet chocolate chips, this cookie will rival even grandma’s version. Plus, uniquely handcrafted to be gluten-free and free of the 8 most common allergens, it’s sure to make all tummies happy.
Mott's Medleys (assorted fruit)
$3.98/ box of 24 pouches
My packages = about $0.17
Made with real fruit and vegetable juice, these tasty fruit snacks are sweet, chewy and flavorful. Apple, pear and carrot juice lend natural sweetness to the fun fruit-shaped chews. They’re loaded with Vitamin C and just 80 calories per pouch.
My children and I are already fans of the Mott's fruit snacks. It was great to have it in the box. They LOVED THEM!!! Even my 14 month old enjoys them. He can't get enough!
Tangy Zangy Twisters (Sour Wild Berry)
$??? No price on this item either. They have a list of about 36 places to buy them non of which are close to where I live. I didn't check out their websites either to see if you could purchase them online.
Prepare your taste buds for a super sour experience! These gummy twists of vibrant red and blue are tart and chewy with wild berry flavor. Just enough of a sugary dusting restores balance to your puckered palate. How sweet (and sour) it is!
Well, they were good. I'll say that. I'm a fan of sour things, so after I tried it I figured that I just couldn't tell. My 14 month old son wanted one, so I figured why not. He tries everything else. He didn't even make a face when he ate it. So, I'm going to say that these weren't sour at all. I'm pretty sure a 14 month old would make a face still if it were sour.
Bare Fruit
Crunch Fuji Red Apple Chips
$4.98/ 2 packages
On sale for $2.48/ 2 packages
So my package = about $1.24
Slowly baked in a wood-burning oven to intensify the natural flavor of Fuji apples, these chips are sweet, crisp and satisfying. They’re also high in fiber, low in calories and 100% natural. You know what they say about an apple a day…
I noticed that only 2 items were available for purchase on the goodies.co website. I haven't had that issue with any of my previous boxes. You could easily find most if not all the items on their website. I'm not sure if it's just the kid's box or what... Guess we'll find out in the next few days after I receive my Taster's Box.
With guessing the milkshake straws at $3.85 via Amazon. And then not putting a price down for the Tangy Zangy Twisters... I come up with a total of $9.25... So yeah, the box only cost me $7... It was worth it. That and we'll be trying a few different items that we never have, along with a few that my kids LOVE!!!
Until Next Time,

I'll talk about the US Edition when my step-daughter receives hers in the mail. So... Stay tuned for that coming up probably within the week I'd guess.
World Edition
It is aimed towards 5-10 year old... So, My daughter is only 3 1/2... But I tried to find something for her that I thought She'd enjoy. She loves stickers and loves to learn.
The 1st month you receive a Suitcase, a letter, map, passport, stickers, boarding pass, picture, and activities page. To see my review of the 1st box check it out HERE.
These are an endangered species with a reddish/orange coat and a bright red face. I looked this animal up on the National Geographic website HERE so I could tell my daughter a little bit more about the monkey. She seemed to enjoy learning a little bit about the monkey. Apparently this is her favorite animal now. LOL...

HERE IS WHAT WAS IN THE BRAZIL PACKAGE
Amethyst
Sam and Sofia told their scooter to go to the amethyst mines in Maraba. They sent my daughter one so she could see how beautiful it was. Found a website for the Amethyst HERE that I enjoyed. Learned a little more about Amethysts. :)
Passport stamp and Map Marker
You are supposed to put the Brazil Flag "Stamp" (actually a sticker) in your passport, and the Map Marker sticker on the world map where Brazil is. I decided that we should probably put it on the capital since it never actually said where to put it.
Federal Republic of Brazil
This is a sticker that you are supposed to put on the out side of the suitcase. So, it is on the outside of the suitcase that already has two stickers on it.... Sam and Sofia.
Letter
Here's the letter that Sam and Sofia sent this month. It talks about their adventure and about the picture of the monkey and the amethyst.
Activity Page
I'll be helping my daughter with this, a like I said, she's only 3 1/2. I wait a couple weeks to do this, so it doesn't seem to far away till she gets her next package. After finishing the activity page, part of it says where you'll be visiting next.
Red Uakari Monkey
These are an endangered species with a reddish/orange coat and a bright red face. I looked this animal up on the National Geographic website HERE so I could tell my daughter a little bit more about the monkey. She seemed to enjoy learning a little bit about the monkey. Apparently this is her favorite animal now. LOL...
Boarding Pass
There is a boarding pass also that has a secret code which allows you to go to the little passports website, where they have different activities and games for your child. My daughter enjoyed this last month, so I can't wait to see what this month has in store for us to do.
Like I said, stay tuned for my step-daughter's US Edition. Can't wait to see which two states we travel to this month.
Until Next Time,
Cristina AKA Stay At Home Mom of 3
