Hansel and Gretel. Reviewed by Rosa.

There was a wife, a husband, and two children. The children’s names were Hansel and Gretel. They only had crumbs when they were left on their own and they fell asleep on an oak tree. Then they came to a bread house and old, little woman made food for them. Now she said, “I’ll fatten him and feed him meals.” For she wanted him to grow plump so she could eat him.

Little Bunny Foo Foo by Paul Brett Johnson.  An anonymous kid’s review.

Little Bunny Foo Foo was always up to no good.  He would bop people on the head and throw pie their faces.  The setting was outside in the fresh air.  He played tricks on his friends and not his friends.  They didn’t want to be his friends anymore.  He caught them and this didn’t please the fairy at all.  She gave him three chances, but if he didn’t behave she would turn him into a goon.  The fairy was very very big.  She had a wand with string on it.

Trouble Board Game

Try this fun and easy game for a wide variety of ages. Push the bubble in the middle of the board to roll the dice and move the number of spaces it tells you – but you can only start moving if you get a 6! It is similar to Sorry in that if you land on another player you send that player back to start, but that’s only part of the fun of the game. It is good for kids learning how to count and even though there are some small pieces, it is a compact game good for traveling.
