My grandson Loves National Geographic. We had the opportunity to review a Deep Cave Explorer Echo Maker from the National Geographic Series from Uncle Milton earlier and he is still playing with it on a daily basis. With the 4-in-1 Explorer Navigation Tool, he thinks he is ready to camp out on his own. He actually asked his parents to drop him off in the woods so he can find his way back home.  lol.. Didn't Happen! 

For 2 weeks he recorded the temperatures from 4pm- 6pm and charted it using the thermometer on his tool. Now he thinks he is a meterologist and is predicting the temperatures! He also loves sending signals with the signal mirror and yes, of course he loves the whistle. What child doesn't love blowing whistles? 

One of my readers will win an Uncle Milton 4-in 1 Explorer Navigation Tool for that little explorer of theirs!

Uncle Milton's National Geographic Deep Cave Explorer Echo Maker Review and Giveaway

My 10 year old grandson is an avid outdoors young man. He also loves National Geographic. So when we had the opportunity to review Uncle Milton's National Geographic Deep Cave Explorer Echo Maker from the Outdoor Explorer Series, he was elated! When you talk into it, your voice echos like you were in a cave. It also has an attached searchlight that he loves using outside at night. It has an on/off switch and uses 3 button cell batteries which are included. It also comes with an Explorer Activity Guide.

Our Opinion:
My grandson loves the Echo Maker. He and his friends spend hours talking into it and making sounds. It puts a whole new meaning for a sleepover for them. They use the light in the tent also and all you can hear coming from that tent is echos and giggles. The dog doesn't seem to like it very much though lol.  His mom and dad take him geocaching so he loves using it to find things and then talking into it so they know.

One of my readers will win Uncle Milton's National Geographic Deep Cave Explorer Echo Maker for their little adventurer!

Build A Dream Playhouses Review & Giveaway

We received the Snack Shack for our review and it is something the grandkids are STILL enjoying. They have spent hours upon hours painting their snack shack and playing it in. They have their little own lemonade stand as they call it. They have even decided to sell hotdogs and gummy worms(their play food of course). But they are actually using it at the church garage sale(selling real lemonade and hotdogs) and donating any money they make to help less fortunate kids in our area. This is not a toy that they have played with then just forgot about. They get very excited whenever someone mentions a charity or something like that...that they can use their snack shack and make their contributions! They each have put stickers on it also with all their names. They have convinced me to make them some peanut butter & chocolate chip cookies for the church sale...looks like I will be baking lol.

One (1) of my readers will win a Build A Dream Playhouse of their choice.
