In the Spotlight: WoonHung Jewelry
This week we are featuring Yvonne Chia who went after her dream of starting her own jewelry company several years ago and has gone on to be quite successful at it!

She is based out of Singapore and took some time to talk to us about her company, WoonHung. Tell us how you and when you…

The Chuck Jones Center for Creativity Review and Giveaway
The Chuck Jones Center for Creativity: Brings out Creativity in the Young and Young-at-Heart: Most of us grew up watching Bugs Bunny, The Roadrunner and Coyote and many more of the characters that Chuck Jones created in his lifetime.

PBS Kids Wild Kratts: Creature Power App Review & Giveaway
The Kratt brothers are so wonderful in their new show The Wild Kratts that aired this week on PBS Kids! It is a combination of them as cartoon characters (think Wonder Twin powers and the Scooby Doo teenagers vibe) as well as them out at sea teaching us about our amazing oceans and the creatures that live in them. My six year old is quite obsessed with the show and requests to watch it every night since we received a sample DVD!

Ruby’s Studio: The Friendship Show
The Mother Company and Ruby’s Studio was started by two friends, Abbie Schiller and Samantha Kurtzman-Counter who both have a background in television. They wanted to create a slower-paced and educational program for children that would focus on topics such as emotional literacy. With award winning Ruby’s studio we find adorable Ruby talking to groups of children about various topics. They described Ruby’s Show as a mix between Mr. Rogers meets Mary Poppins. Ruby has such a magical way to interact and speak to children that my daughter immediately responded to the show.
