Amazing New Toy

Mr. C fell in love with his Aunt Connie's Kindle Fire the first time he played with it. What is so great is that it is so very similar to an iPad without the major costs! It is a THIRD of what an iPad costs and you can get the same or similar apps all FREE! Last night I'll admit I was up late getting some elementary school apps for Mr. C including sight word practice, math, telling time, handwriting practice, and much, much more!

So, we tried to get the Walmart special, but if you know Walmart deals, you have to act very fast (like the minute the deal comes out) and so every Walmart in our area were sold out. So, we found PLENTY at Target for the same price minus the gift card.

When we brought it to Mr. C charged and downloaded with lots of games, you should have seen his reaction. He said, "Ohhhhhhhh!!!" and then was engrossed with it! He loves the piano app, puzzle app, and the matching app. I like the Angry Birds, Facebook, and Bible app. This will no doubt be a lifesaver when there is no children's church on the 5th Sundays of the month as well as it doesn't frustrate him like his DS does when he tries to manipulate the DS buttons.

It made for one interesting and challenging bedtime, but luckily for him that the weekend is coming up!!
