These Toys are Good For The Kids… and The Tired Mamma!

WINNER!
CONGRATULATIONS TO JENNIFER BOWEN!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What do you get the kid who has more energy than you can cram in the closet for more than an hour a day he knows what to do with?
Toys he can smash, crash, and BASH.
Enter the Melissa & Doug Pound and Roll Tower from one of the best places online to buy toys for your kids, Good For The Kids!
It has the word “Pound” in the name, so you know it’s good, man! My son is going to get hours of wacking good fun bashing and pounding those beautifully colored wooden balls and then running after them as they roll away… just so he can POUND THEM AGAIN.
And look! Another Melissa & Doug product at Good For the Kids with “Pound” in the name! The Classic Pound a Peg! Another lovely wood-crafted, brightly colored toy that will drain your child’s endless freaking energy train promote motor skills in your child!
Melisa & Doug Pound and Roll Tower – $15.99
Melissa & Doug Classic Pound a Peg – $9.99
My son, wearing himself out by smashing and bashing to his heart’s content? Priceless.
Would you like one of these awesome toys? Of course you would!
All you have to do is visit Good For The Kids, find your favorite Melissa & Doug toy, and then come back here and tell me in comments what it is. (Please choose something other than the 2 toys I’ve mentioned here.)
Comments will be accepted through 11:59 CST, Monday December 1st.
Once comments are closed, one winner will be randomly selected using random.org and that person will receive their choice of either the Pound and Roll Tower or the Classic Pound a Peg!
Good Luck, Guys!
