Gravity Maze™ Review

Product Description

Gravity Maze™ (Ages 8 to adult, single player, MSRP: $29.99)

Laser Maze fans will love this marble run logic puzzle, building visual perception and reasoning skills
In this gravity-powered logic maze, you’ll arrange colorful, translucent towers to whisk your marble from starting point to target. Just like best-selling Laser Maze, you’ll rely on your visual perception and reasoning skills to find the single solution to 60 different challenges. The towers can be arranged in many visually stimulating structures offering lots of creative building time, but only one design will successfully carry your marble directly in your target.

MarksvilleandMe reviews Gravity Maze™

by Thinkfun

We haven't had a new logic game in a very long time so this was a really nice add to our family line up of games. It is meant for ages 8+ but my 6 year old was able to do a few of the beginner cards on her own, so what ever is comfortable with your family. My 11 year old really enjoyed it. Gravity Maze is also meant for one player but we were able to make it into a family game by taking turns. If the first person didn't solve it the first time then it went to the next person until it was solved. If you get really good at it I would suggest using a timer  ( which is not included) to make it even more interesting. 

You pick a card and it tells you how to set up the board. There are little dots at the bottom of the cards to tell you how many pieces and what colors you must use to get the metal marble from one point to the next. Don't worry the answer is on the back of each card if you need help, or to check to see if you put it together like the card wanted you to. 

My 11 year old was not sure she had it right but sure enough she did, she was very proud of herself, and continued to do a few more.

The only problem I see or should I say my husband pointed out was that even though he could tell the difference in the color of the pillars, he could not tell the difference in the dots on the cards so we had to tell him which colors they were. He could then play on his own. 

This is a fun game meant for one, but as I said above can be made into a family game with adjustments. 

You can purchase Gravity Maze™ on Amazon.

BALTIC AMBER TEETHING NECKLACE Review

Product Description

We have The Secret to curing teething pain for babies. Does your baby cry with pain while teething. Do they suffer with a fever, red cheeks and lots of dribble?

Your Baby can wear a Baltic Amber Teething Necklace to ease their pain while getting baby teeth. Baltic Amber is effective due to it's its high content of succinic acid. Succinic acid is a natural pain reliever, anti-inflammatory, and central nervous system calmer. Wearing an amber teething necklace is effective on babies and small children because it eases their pain while also having a strong soothing effect on their nervous system - all with no side effects!

Our Baltic Amber Teething Necklace for Baby is 13 Inches (33cm) Long. All of our Baltic Amber is Certified Genuine, Authentic, Natural Baltic Amber and comes with an individual certificate of authenticity from our manufacturer in Lithuania.

All our amber necklaces are knotted between every bead to prevent the loss of beads should the string breakThe product is not meant to be chewed by the infant it is worn against the skin.

MarksvilleandMe reviews BALTIC AMBER TEETHING NECKLACE

We were very excited to try the Baltic amber teething necklace. With permission from my oldest daughter I borrowed my grand daughter Lainy who is 8 months old to see how she fared with it. Even with all of the safely precautions this necklace has we decided to only have this on her while she was awake or napping near us.

If you are like most parents you want your baby to be happy, never suffering from pain or being sick, so using the safest possible items around them is very important. As a parent myself I would rather use something natural to relieve my child's pain then to give them medications that are filled with chemicals that aren't so natural hoping they will work.

So far we haven't seen any teeth so we aren't sure if the Baltic amber teething necklace is working or not, but even it doesn't you have to admit they are gorgeous. 

Now if only they made the Baltic amber teething necklace in my size I could look this cute.

You can buy your own Baltic amber teething necklace on Amazon, but unless you are a baby I just don't think you can be as cute as Lainy.

Tracks Review

Product Description

A MAN'S LIFE TURNS TO TRACKING...

In a thrilling manhunt, a grieving father is tracking any clues, any traces of his kidnapped child while forming an international organization that tracks other missing children.
The suspense never ceases as the flesh trade, divorce disputes, and child slavery are all being probed by Sam Baker and his team across the globe. The mystery builds as deep in the Sinai Desert, amongst immortal granite cliffs and The Gulf's breathtaking shades, there lays Sam's greatest fears. Hate, corruption, and greed threaten his organization and he turns to a secret outfit for help. Then a horrible scheme to use children to spread terror is revealed and the tracks lead to an inevitably lethal confrontation with a merciless terrorist group.
This is a tale of modern terrorism, international intrigue, diplomacy, and sacrifice, all in hopes of finding one small boy.
Will Sam find his son?
"TRACKS",Niv Kaplan's second novel, is a riveting adventure of people who risk everything to track and liberate missing children.

MarksvilleandMe reviews Tracks

written by

Niv Kaplan

Like most thrillers this keeps you turning the pages to see what will happen next. Will Sam find his son? This book has explicit and at times nerve racking spots in which some might turn away from discontinue to read. So be ready for an intense book of suspense. 

Tracks is book two so you might want to pick up book one named Disappearance by Niv Kaplan as well. I look forward to reading more books by Niv Kaplan and seeing the thrillers unfold as the suspension comes to a head. 

You can buy Tracks on Amazon.
