Hallmark Valentine's Day Gifts Review + Giveaway

Valentine's Day is next week - someone please tell me why 2012 is disappearing so quickly!  If the holiday is sneaking up on you and you're scrambling for the perfect gift for those you love, Hallmark wants to help.

A brand new product has arrived in time for the holiday: Blooming Expressions!  These beautiful blossoms allow you to give a lasting gift to the most important people in your life.  Each flower blooms with the press of a button - and reveals a message once open! See video below for a demonstration.

These are really neat - they are beautiful and unique.  Even my 11-month-old was intrigued by the moving flower! 

For the younger crowd, Hallmark added new titles to the popular Recordable Storybooks library!  Recordable Storybooks are so special, since you can personalize them with your voice and preserve it for your kids to hear for years to come.  The newest titles include Love you Forever and Under the Same Moon - and other children's classics like Counting Kisses, All the Ways I Love You and Guess How Much I Love You are featured as well. 

I chose to review Love You Forever.  To be honest, I have not yet finished recording my storybook for L because I can't get all the way through the book without crying!  This is one of the most precious children's books I have ever read (and as a former librarian...that's saying a lot)! 

If you're working on Valentine's cards, Hallmark's website has a variety of ways to add a unique touch to your greetings. There is a new collection of Classroom Valentines, which allows kids to upload their own photos and become the star of their Valentine greetings - and new designs include favorites such as Star Wars, Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and Disney Princesses. Plus right now, My Kansas City Mommy readers can enjoy 30% off any Hallmark.com order of $10 or more, plus free stamps! Simply use VAL30 at checkout.

Watch this video to see the Blooming Expressions in action!

You can find Blooming Expressions and Recordable Storybooks at Hallmark stores and participating Hallmark retailers.  Give a lasting gift this holiday and make them smile over and over again. 

Giveaway

One My Kansas City Mommy reader will win a Hallmark Prize Package including a Love You Forever storybook and a Blooming Expression!  This giveaway will end on February 17 at 11:00pm CST.  This giveaway is open to US readers only.

The Berenstain Bears & the Easter Story + All Things Bright and Beautiful {Children's Book Review}

The Berenstain Bears are are back in a new tale that is perfect for Easter baskets! The Berenstain Bears and the Easter Story finds Brother, Sister, and Honey Bear arrive at church on Easter morning, thinking about the the best kinds of candy.  Their Sunday school teacher invites them to watch a play that another class is performing - a play about the true meaning of Easter!  The cubs watch the Easter story unfold before their eyes and happily agree that Easter is not just about bunnies and candy (though candy is still okay). 

In The Berenstain Bears: All Things Bright and Beautiful, we get to visit Sunday School again with Brother and Sister Bear!  This time, their teacher takes all of her students out on an adventurous nature walk, all across Bear Country!  Brother and Sister are confused why a nature walk is something to do at church, but they soon realize that the world is filled with wonderful things that were made by God!

Both of these books are a delight!  The illustrations are cheery and little ones will ask to hear the stories over and over again.  Plus each book comes with a collection of coordinating stickers! I have always loved The Berenstain Bears and I am really glad that they are still thriving so that my son can grow up reading about Brother, Sister and all the rest!

The Berenstain Bears and the Easter Story and The Berenstain Bears: All Things Bright and Beautiful are each currently priced at $4.99 on Amazon.

Thank you to Zonderkids for providing my review sample!s  I received no other compensation and all views expressed are my own.
