A MESSAGE FROM<br />
Val Ives<br />
A SPECIAL CHRISTMAS MESSAGE I LIKE TO SHARE EVERY YEAR<br />
The story goes that some time ago, a man punished his 3-year-old<br />
daughter for wasting a roll of gold wrapping paper. Money was tight<br />
and he became infuriated when the child tried to decorate a box to put<br />
under the Christmas tree.<br />
Nevertheless, the little girl brought the gift to her father the next<br />
morning and said, “This is for you, Daddy. He was embarrassed by<br />
his earlier overreaction, but his anger flared again when he found the<br />
box was empty. He yelled at her, “Don’t you know that when you give<br />
someone a present, there’s supposed to be something in it?”<br />
The little girl looked up at him with tears in her eyes and said “Oh,<br />
Daddy, it is not empty. I blew kisses into the box. All for you, Daddy.”<br />
The father was crushed. He put his arms around his little girl, and he<br />
begged for her forgiveness.<br />
It is told that the man kept that gold box by his bed for years and<br />
whenever he was discouraged, he would take out an imaginary kiss<br />
and remember the love of the child who had put it there.<br />
In a very real sense, each of us as humans have been given a gold container<br />
filled with unconditional love and kisses from our children,<br />
friends, family or God. There is no more precious possession anyone<br />
could hold.<br />

Amazon Says These Are Going to Be the Hottest Toys of Christmas <strong>2018</strong><br />
Pomsies Speckles Plush Interactive Toys<br />
Pet toys are going to be huge this holiday<br />
season, according to our Good Housekeeping<br />
Institute toy experts. Think of Pomsies as<br />
Fingerlings with fur. The super affordable interactive<br />
toy clips on to an arm, backpack, or<br />
clothes so kids can carry it with them all day.<br />
Chow Crown Game<br />
If your kid can’t stop playing with his food at<br />
the table, give him this game. Players wear a<br />
spinning crown loaded with snacks and have<br />
to try to eat everything before time is up. Just<br />
note that in the Good Housekeeping Institute’s<br />
test, older kids had a better time grasping the<br />
game than younger ones.<br />
Scruff-A-Luvs<br />
Each Scruff-a-Luv comes as a matted ball of<br />
fur with only its eyes showing. Once kids wash,<br />
dry, and style its hair, their new pet is revealed!<br />
This adorable toy is already back-ordered until<br />
mid-September, so we suspect it’s going to be<br />
ever trickier to get as the holidays get closer.<br />
Hot Diggity Dance & Play Mickey<br />
Kids will recognize the “Hot Dog” song Mickey<br />
is singing and dancing to from the popular<br />
Disney Junior series, Mickey Mouse Clubhouse.<br />
Once he’s done with his performance,<br />
you can play interactive games with Mickey,<br />
too!<br />
L.O.L. Surprise! Glam Glitter Series Doll<br />
We know you know that L.O.L Surprise dolls<br />
aren’t going anywhere, but the Glam Glitter<br />
doll is likely one your child hasn’t unboxed yet.<br />
Watch Ya Mouth Throwdown Edition<br />
Card Game<br />
This hilarious game has players wear cheek retractors<br />
that make saying phrases difficult to<br />
say the least. Their teammates have to guess<br />
what they are saying to win, but getting guesses<br />
out in between laughing might just be the<br />
hardest part!<br />
Crayola Color Chemistry Set for Kids<br />
This set from Crayola transforms your child<br />
into a scientist thanks to the 50 experiments.<br />
Just know that adult supervision is recommended.<br />
Melissa & Doug Examine and Treat Pet<br />
Vet Play Set<br />
Our toy experts in the Good Housekeeping<br />
Institute liked that this set helps kids practice<br />
empathy and caring while they play.<br />
LEGO Classic Medium Creative Brick Box<br />
Think of this as the starter kit that every LEGO<br />
fan needs. It comes with 484 piece that can also<br />
be used to build other LEGO sets.<br />
Ozobot Bit Coding Robot<br />
Ozobot teaches your kids coding through coloring<br />
on a tablet. Depending on the colors and<br />
designs they use, Bit will follow command.<br />
Baby Alive Potty Dance Baby<br />
Because Baby Alive didn’t do enough already:<br />
now she pees! The doll does a little dance to<br />
let Mommy or Daddy know she needs to use<br />
the bathroom. Once she’s placed on the potty,<br />
she’ll tinkle and kids can add a sticker to her<br />
reward chart. Children were pretty amazed by<br />
all this during the Good Housekeeping Institute’s<br />
test.<br />
Hot Wheels Corkscrew Crash Track Set<br />
With three motorized speed boosters, a dropin<br />
ramp, and crazy corkscrews, the race course<br />
options are endless. Just note, it only comes<br />
with one car, so you may want to stock up on<br />
more.<br />
furReal Munchin’ Rex<br />
It’s the year of the dinosaur, says the Good<br />
Housekeeping Institute! The way this baby T-<br />
Rex eats, begs, and hops is so realistic, your<br />
kids will forget that dinosaurs are extinct.<br />
Melissa & Doug Scoop and Serve Ice<br />
Cream Counter<br />
The 28-piece wooden set includes an ice cream<br />
counter, eight ice cream scoops, six toppings,<br />
two cones, cup, scooper, tongs, wooden spoon,<br />
and six $1 bills.<br />
Barbie Care Clinic Vehicle<br />
Barbie is back with a new resume booster. Kids<br />
can rush to the scene in her emergency vehicle<br />
and then flip it open to reveal a fully-functioning<br />
clinic to treat her patients.<br />
Little Tikes Cozy Coupe Dino<br />
The red and yellow coupe from your childhood<br />
got a serious upgrade: Now it’s a rolling<br />
Dino that they can drive around town.<br />
L.O.L. Surprise! Bigger Surprise!<br />
Your L.O.L. Surprise lover may think she’s seen<br />
it all, until she gets her hands on its biggest<br />
surprise yet. This top-secret box is jam-packed<br />
with over 60 brand new dolls, accessories, and<br />
more.<br />
Kano ‘Harry Potter’ Coding Kit<br />
Thanks to the release of Fantastic Beasts 2, a<br />
ton of new Harry Potter-inspired toys are hitting<br />
the market in <strong>2018</strong>. This STEM option<br />
teaches kids to code a wand that responds to<br />
their movements.<br />
LEGO ‘Harry Potter’ Hogwarts Great<br />
Hall Building Kit<br />
Harry Potter lovers were thrilled with this<br />
Hogwarts building kit in the Good Housekeeping<br />
Institute’s testing. It comes with a potions<br />
room, treasure room, sorting hat, and the<br />
Mirror of Erised so they can take Harry and<br />
friends on their wildest adventures yet.<br />
Osmo Genius Kit<br />
Here’s a good excuse for screen time: Osmo’s<br />
Genius Kit offers up fun games on your iPad<br />
that promote math, spelling, and other learning<br />
skills. There are a ton of positive reviews<br />
for this, but some parents did say the ads were<br />
a downside.<br />
littleBits Avengers Hero Inventor Kit<br />
The Good Housekeeping Institute loved that<br />
this STEM toy comes with 18 projects, so it’s<br />
not something kids will get tired of after a few<br />
hours. Some of the more advanced projects<br />
even let them practice coding.<br />
LEGO Boost Creative Toolbox<br />
Packed with over 840 Lego pieces, along with<br />
a move hub and an interactive motor, the possibilities<br />
for your child’s robot creations are<br />
endless with this 2017 Good Housekeeping<br />
Toy Award kit.<br />
Pie Face Cannon Game<br />
This carnival-inspired game brings a new twist<br />
to the original Pie Face. Players have to aim<br />
and launch the whipped cream cannon in their<br />
friend’s face.<br />
Cozmo<br />
If your kids are new to coding, give them Cozmo.<br />
The friendly robot’s Code Lab lets him interact,<br />
explore, and play games with the push<br />
of a few buttons.<br />
L.O.L. Surprise! House<br />
Not only does an exclusive family come with<br />
this doll house, but it also has 85+ surprises<br />
tucked inside and an elevator, pool, spa, and<br />
sandbox. Note that this does take up a bit of<br />
space (it’s three-by-three feet wide), but it doubles<br />
as storage for every L.O.L. doll she owns.<br />
A sincere thank you to those<br />
who graciously donated to<br />
our food drive. Because of<br />
you many less fortunate will<br />
benefit. We couldn’t do it<br />
without you! Thank you so<br />
much!<br />
