{Hearthsong} + Giveaway

We were recently lucky enough to get the chance to review an item from HearthSong! The company was started back in 1983 by Barbara Kane who was having trouble finding good, wholesome toys for her children. Hearthsong has some amazing and unique toys, games, and craft kits.

I absolutely love their toys. In my experience they are always high quality and most of their toys are things that I have not seen other places. They have tons of different categories including outdoor active, imaginative play, backyard campouts, cooking and entertaining, gardening and nature, books, my room, games and puzzles, and arts and crafts. If you are looking for the perfect gift, you can also shop by age, interest, price, or Holiday.

We got the chance to review the Large Nature's Fire "Volcano" My son loves things like this on his desk. It's a volcano in a water-filled display with little red and white beads that "erupt" from the volcano and "flow" down its sides. This is awesome to watch - interesting and relaxing at the same time - and I've never seen it anyplace else. He loves it. He puts it on at night when he is going to bed.


There are so many great things on the site that I'd love to get for my kids. Here are some of their other great items:


Visit HearthSong on facebook or stop by their website to see the great toys that they have to offer.
