What would be a more fitting entry in a radio show's holiday gift guide than an audio drama series for kids based on the idea of old-time radio drama?
You might remember Billy Brown's audio adventures. You should have received one last year and we were discussing a possible interview on your show.
All parents have these questions: How to get their kids to bed? How to limit their TV watching? What to do on a car ride? There is one easy answer to all these: Audio adventures! Audio adventures are different from audio books, storytelling or music for kids. They are professionally produced audio dramas with full cast voice acting, music, and sound effects that hearken back to the days of radio dramas and it's potential for imagination.
“Selfishly, I love Billy Browns because he, unlike anything else, has managed to keep Annabella in her room at bedtime. She's had trouble falling asleep since we transitioned to a bed almost three years ago. But we put on a little Billy Brown and she's in there for good.” writes JumpingMonkeys.

**********************************


A FREE download of Giddio's award-winning audio adventure “Billy Brown And The Mystery Package” is available at www.Giddio.com ! Now all your readers can try out whether their 3-7y olds will like Billy Brown and his friends, and how audio adventures can help with parenting like they have done in Germany since the 70s.What I believe children enjoy about full cast audio adventures is that they love the variety and different sounds; it is almost like going on an adventure. And because the audio is not all the same voice the kids can't wait for the next great sound or voice to come up. Children love characters having different voices and I found them trying to imitate those voices., iParenting Media reviewer.

www.wheego.com

WheeGO is where treasure hunting meets hide-n-go seek, and kids 4-8 can't get enough.
WheeGO provides a turn-key exhilarating ("can we play again?!") experience.    Each clue leads to the location of the following clue, culminating in an (included) treasure following Clue #10.   Along the way, searchers are challenged with brainteasers, rhyming games or a physical activity.   Each quest features a different WheeGO character, developed with diversity in mind. WheeGO assists in the development of sequential thinking skills, builds confidence and reveals the value of self-initiation.Miscellaneous: WheeGO received a Preferred Choice Award in the "active" game play category from Creative Child Magazine, as well as a "3" rating from Lekotek for children with disabilities, which indicates WheeGO is "good" for many in that category (which was an unexpected and incredibly gratifying byproduct of producing this game).    Price
: $9.99 SRP

Reflect clothing sends a specific message to your subconscious mind.  The first step is to read the affirmation.  You then have to BELIEVE the affirmation and FEEL the affirmation as though it exists.  With repetition throughout the day, the idea will begin to take root and once this occurs…prepare yourself for some amazing results.  

Reflect clothing is personal and can be tailored to your needs.  You choose your desired affirmations, clothing style, and size and we make the shirt specifically for you, with the intention of it changing your life. 

All of our clothing is made in the
USA.  We believe fully in our products and commit to using only best quality items. We will continue to add different styles, colors and variations as we grow!

Let your life Reflect what you want it to be!

FroliCat™ BOLT™ is an automatic laser toy that provides hours of fun for you and your feline friend.  Simply hold BOLT in your hand or place it on a flat surface, turn it on and watch your cat pounce, chase and bat at the exciting laser patterns.  BOLT’S laser patterns are more random than those generated by other automatic laser toys, resulting in high levels of enthused play.  So prepare for pouncing, chasing, jumping and maybe even the occasional half-twist summersault. 

 

BOLT is different than other laser toys because it can be used automatically or manually.  In automatic mode, you can set a 15-minute play session for your cat using the timer.  In manual mode, you can create your own laser patterns.  BOLT has an adjustable mirror to aim the laser a across a variety of places like floors, tables and walls.

Short, funny rhymes your bird will memorize and "read" back to you. Colorful photos of real birds on every page. Human children learn language from the reliable rhythms and rhymes of Mother Goose. Here's the first book of nursery rhymes for companion birds! 

"My Congo African Grey Parrot, Jewel enjoyed looking at the pictures and listening to me read. As I turned each page, Jewel would be watching and she would just say “OH” as she saw the bird on the next page. A few times, I caught her talking along as I read and I am pretty sure that after a few more times, she will be reading on her own."  ~ Mavis Metcalf, Birds Editor, BellaOnline

Author Bob Morrow has published hundreds of children’s poems in children’s magazines from the U.S. to Australia. He never expected to appreciate parrots until he found himself sharing his home with an African grey named Harley, who quickly won a convert to parrot fandom.

The Gutter Lights

The Gutter Light has taken solar lights to the next level. The Gutter light is a Green, Eco-Friendly and  Patented product by Mr. Go Green.  Gutter Lights are the "Night Light for your Home" and will save electricity and lower the carbon footprint of the homeowner or business. A larger battery capacity gives the light extra long run time which allows a "Dusk to Dawn" light. The light is designed to run 30+ continuous hours on a full 4-6 hour solar charge.

 

The Gutter Light easily attaches to the outer edge of the gutter and is ideal for lighting

Doorways, Walkways, Stairs, Garages, Sheds, Businesses, Warehouses, Vacations Homes and Rental Properties. No need to have gutters because Gutter lights will also attach to any flat surface such as walls, signs, boats, yachts, or even a tree!  What makes this product even more unique is the ability for the solar light to slide off and on the attachment base for use as a flashlight. 

 

Just having a few of these gutter lights on your home assures you in the event of power outages that you will have a  long term light source and battery charger that will enable you to charge other AA batteries to run other devices such as radios etc. The more Gutter Lights you have around the home the more you can bring indoors to illuminate your home in the event of hurricane, earthquake or any other event that would cause

a power failure. Keep them in the house for everyday use for nightlights, or tote them along in a backpack for flashlights to use them while hiking or camping. They are a green product and have unlimited uses.

TheNakedHippie   Organic T-shirts

Erin and I have been in a relationship for almost 3 years. We met when I took her yoga class at the gym and have been dating ever since.  Our first date was at Starbucks and we spoke for 8 hours, about ... well everything!  About a year later we decided to start TheNakedHippie together, because we wanted to continue traveling and sharing our inspiration and creativity with others all while having a positive effect on the earth and those around us. 

About the t-shirts: We chose the softest organic cotton t-shirts we can find on the market, because despite the fact that we love the organic thing, we are most definitely not a fan of brillo pads on the skin!  We also wanted a fitted t-shirt that didn’t look more like a poncho than a shirt (no offense to ponchos).  The designs are a joint effort, Erin and I travel and love to find inspiration from everywhere.  We take our time in designing our t-shirts, because we really believe in quality over quantity. The ink used for printing is water-based and virtually free of toxins. All of our shipping materials are also recycled - boxes, tags, and without junk like bubble wrap or tissue paper.  We also use paperless receipts, since the paper ones just end up getting thrown out anyway.

In 2007 I was looking to purchase a black and brown purse. I figured, I could save lots of time by not having to switch purses from black to brown. I had no luck so I decided to make one. I thought it might be nice to crochet ribbon instead of yarn and it worked out beautifully. Upon completion of my new bag the name Greenpurse just popped into my head. I said to myself, “That would be a great name for a business”. I wrote it down on my chalk board in the kitchen and cogitated about what Greenpurse could be. The next day when I awoke I started making purses and have been making them ever since. I have seven purse lines and a variety of decorations, hats, scarves and costume jewelry.. My creations are all crafted from vintage materials, clothes in disrepair, plastic bags of all kinds, leather goods and much more. My mind is forever filled with ideas, therefore, I’m always creating new and interesting designs. I hold workshops and home parties as well as fashion custom bags to suit your every need. I am an accredited  member of the Better Business Bureau, GreenPeople and Madison Who’s Who. Appearances and interviews include the Sheboygan Press, The Morning Blend, WFRV TV Green Bay and WMTV Channel 15 in Madison

10% of all sales is donated to a charity for abused children. Thank you!

ROSA LOVES is a not-for-profit t-shirt company based out of St. Augustine, Florida, that designs t-shirts to help individuals in need.  Every t-shirt is sold to meet a specific financial goal to which ROSA LOVES uses to fulfill a particular person's need.  These needs, whether it's a walker for Glenda, a boat for a Indonesian fisherman, or bikes for local folks who do not have means to their own transportation, each are met with profits from t-shirt sales.  Every t-shirt has a story of whomever its benefiting, which is printed on the inverse of the t-shirt as well as a creative, artistic design on the front.  Once each of the goals are met, those particular designs are retired, making them a limited edition.  This process repeats itself and we're continually creating new t-shirts.  You can find out more information on our website at: http://www.rosaloves.com.  T-shirts are priced from $18-25.  There's a whole lot more to share about our story and products and would love to pass along more information, or send you a sample tee.

Price: $12.00 plus shipping and can be shipped worldwide.

 

We made this fill-in-the-blank t-shirt because we want the owner to tell everyone what they're doing to make the world better. It reads, "I make the world better by (BLANK). What do you do?"

For example, someone giving the gift to a mom could write "raising great kids" or for a grandfather, "teaching my grandchildren to love the planet" or someone could write "having a backyard garden." The possibilities are endless.

What also makes this shirt so great is that it is a ReUse T-Shirt, as STAY VOCAL is a ReUse apparel and product company. These are brand new t-shirts that were set to be destroyed by merchandise companies, but we have reused them, by covering the original print with our design. What can be more eco-friendly than reusing something that's already here; especially something that would otherwise be in a landfill?  Like repainting your house, we have given these shirts another life.
