She Said, BlogHer 2012 Recap Series: The Big Toy Book’s Sweet Suite

 

So after getting all dolled up on a fabulous Thursday night in New York City where did I go?  A totally sold out Sweet Suite hosted by The Big Toy Book at the fabulous Viacom building. You know the home to MTV and Nickelodeon.  Yup, that’s how I roll! ; )

Check out this view with the darling Nancy Horn and Jen-Rab.

 So you probably thought I spent the whole time eating Pinkberry (one of the sponsors), while gabbing with friends as I overlooked the breath taking wonder of Times Square, right?

Wrong! I along with several thrilled bloggers participated in the Biggest Night of Play check out #SweetSuite12 to see all the fun pictures and details.

There were so so so so so many fantastic fun brands at the event but a couple really caught my eye.  Sorry they are mostly boy related BUT that is my life.

 Skylanders Giants

Eddy and I saw this totally innovative virtual world long time ago at the NYC Toy Fair and KNEW this would blow everyones’ mind! We were right and these little guys are a fav at our house for Daddy and sons.  Giants just made it that much cooler.

They always have the most innovative and fun designs.  LOVE LOVE LOVE this paint set is perfect for on the go entertainment for 18 month old X.

Rock and X are not tweens (YET! Yikes soon enough!) but I love how this community whose motto is Have your say has great info on technology, product reviews and everything a tweener wants to read all or watch videos about.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2012

That’s right! I do not know who is more excited Eddy or Rock! Stay tuned for some “Cowabunga” fun! I know anything Ninja Turtles is going on the Santa list.

XBOX Kinect

If you have been following the site you know the whole Dancing Hotdogs family LOVES the XBOX Kinect.  Between the great video game titles from Disney Pixar, Dance Central, Star Wars etc. and how during every family function we host this great game system is fired off for competition with bragging rights and family swagger on the line.   But I was thrilled to learn that they upped the technology and soon thanks to Sesame Street Rock and X will be able to interact 2-way with Elmo and be IN Elmo’s World!

Thank you to Corine and your fantastic team who put this amazing event together!

Disclosure: I attended this Big Toy Book sponsored event but as always my post it my unbiased opinions.
