White Mountain Puzzles has this excellent 1000 piece jigsaw puzzle — Readers Paradise for you and your family to enjoy.
During all times of the year is the right time to set out a jigsaw puzzle for the whole family to enjoy.
White Mountain Puzzles features oversized 100% recycled blue chipboard pieces. The pieces are large and thick which makes them easy to pick up. This 1000 piece jigsaw puzzle measures 24″ x 30″ when completed.
I was drawn to Readers Paradise because I loved the detail and could spend hours exploring such a unique shop. It would be the type of place I would feel comfortable finding a cozy spot to read.
This is a definite “must have” for the book lovers in your family.
Yet there are a few issues . . . the image is not entirely in focus, some pieces have been bent and some have experienced missing pieces. Some have had issues with the interlocking pieces fitting too snugly together.
I suppose it is all a matter of personal preference . . . but since this is the inside of a bookstore, one would expect the shelves and the books to be clear and crisp . . . Compared with other White Mountain puzzles, this one doesn’t seem to have the quality one would expect.
So, be sure to read the reviews and decide for yourself whether Readers Paradise is the right jigsaw puzzle for you.
It pretty much stayed very similar, but for me it allowed me to look at 4 years of posts — with the conclusion, we do want to see what is current.
Yes, some of the recipes are still good — especially the S’Mores . . . it’s getting that time of year again!!
And . . . thinking about what I like . . .
I’ve always enjoyed Family Game Night!! A time for the family to sit down together to play a board game or a card game.
I think I’ve found a good one with Monkeys Up!
This game claims to:
Increase Emotional Bonding
Improve Sibling Rivalry — Kids learn boundaries, rules and sharing.
Builds Self Confidence
Reduces Stress by setting the daily concerns aside
Boosts Child Development while encouraging children to become lifelong learners
Unplugging from all the gadgets and gizmos
This is a fun game with the beauty that kids don’t realize they’re learning. It’s for 1 to 6 players ages 6 years and up. This game uses strategy and memory skills.
The game consists of:
18 plastic monkeys
1 cube
Simple Instructions
It’s easy to play and so much fun!!
Watch this video:
This is one of those games with unlimited “repeat” time.
You will definitely want to play over and over and over again!!
I believe this is a “must have” in your family game night rotation.
I thought TwoCansOnAString.com was due for a new look . . .
I’m hesitating rather than jumping in with both feet . . .
Goodness! I have over 500 posts!! This is going to mean a whole lot of work for me . . . But isn’t this what spring cleaning is all about . . . And what my loyal visitors and customers deserve . . .
I’m thinking of going with a magazine style theme for TwoCansOnAString . . . the great thing about this is that it will bring out the old with the new . . . and I know with 500 plus posts, I have a whole lot of old that many of you may want to revisit . . .
I’ve always referred to this as my fun website . . . So, it’s about time I revamp it a bit and make it more fun for all of you.
If you find this website looking a bit strange for awhile . . . you’ll know we’re under construction . . . But no way am I going to shut it down . . . You get to see every phase of this revamping transition.
It will take me some time to get featured images on all 500 plus posts . . . so please be patient with me . . .
I just hope once I get it all together . . . I don’t change my mind and want to put it back . . .
I have used this theme with a couple of my other websites . . . but they didn’t work as well as I think it will for TwoCansOnAString . . .
This may help me get better organized and give you more variety than what I’ve been offering . . .
I’ve been a bit bored — not a good thing . . . for you especially . . . So . . . hold on . . . there are changes afoot!!
I may not get to it right away . . . but thought I should let you know what I’m thinking . . .
The content will remain the same . . . nothing is going away . . . This is an opportunity for me to see what’s here — it has been quite some time . . .
I think I may want to do more recipes . . . and other things of interest.
One problem I had in the past was having too many websites . . . Now I have three!! This is much better for me. I think I can stay focused on my blogging and not getting too bogged down . . . And with a new website look . . . I’ll probably get a bit more excited about adding more content and giving a bit more variety . . .
For me, it’s all about having fun and enjoying what I’m doing!
Yet . . . this revamping doesn’t feel like fun right now . . . Hang in there with me . . . I’ll let you know when we’re having fun!!
There’s a radio program that runs these old time radio programs . . . I find them amusing and thought I’d look around for some I could purchase.
Here’s what I found:
I do enjoy the spine tingling . . .
It may be time for comedy . . .
I am also curious about books on these old time radio programs . . .
I could probably go on and on . . . but I’ll give you a chance to shop.
There may be some collections of old television programs . . . but for me that may be at a later time. I do love listening to the old radio programs. At one time on Christmas Eve and carried over to Christmas Day a radio station would play old radio programs.
We found them amusing . . . and I thought I might like to have a collection to listen to just for the fun of it!
I do hope you enjoyed this post and will explore the possibilities of old radio broadcasts . . .
