Destiny 2: Forsaken Legendary Collection Video Game

Destiny 2: Forsaken Legendary Collection

2018 Holiday Gift Guide Feature: Destiny 2: Forsaken Legendary Collection

Are there video games on any of your wish lists for the family? Chances are someone on your lists wants video games especially the tweens, teens and young adults. I recently gifted a family friend an extra code for Destiny 2 and this code was for the Legendary Collection. My son (Anthony) is 10 and typically shares the video game reviews as  I allow him to play certain T-Teen games but this is a fresh opinion from a college-age player for my readers. Anthony has this game, but not the collection so I wanted to feature why buying the Legendary Collection is the best way to gift this game.

Destiny 2: Forsaken is a fast paced first person shooter providing a fun yet challenging experience. Allowing you to play solo or with other players creating different scenarios. The game itself has characteristics of an rpg (role playing game) but is set in a universe filled with other players, making the game feel a little more lively.

Getting the legendary collection is best because it expands the universe that’s already long to begin with, adding even more hours to the story. The legendary collection also provides equipment and weapons for your character that would be unavailable in the base game.

Rashti & Rashti Baby and Kids Quality Brands

2018 Holiday Gift Guide Feature: Rashti & Rashti

We all want our babies and children looking good and whether it is for a holiday or celebration we don’t want an outfit to only be worn once before fading or shrinking happens in the wash. The brands that Rashti & Rashti support are the most durable and soft clothing. The brand I am featuring is Baby Starters. Here you will find apparel and accessories for Baby’s first year. We all know if infant wear is not most durable it will never survive the young days of feedings, scooting and many washes.

It has been a while since I have had an infant in my home, but the moment you feel this super-soft fabric you can’t help but snuggle it and wish your own T-shirts felt this good! From seasonal apparel to fall and spring, Baby Starters is all about quality fabrics. They follow that quality with modern colors and patterns, while little ones love the comfort of soft clothing and blankets.

Kiwi Co. The Glow Lab STEM Science Kit

2018 Holiday Gift Guide Feature: The Glow Lab

The Glow Lab is one of the project kits from KiwiCo and will be a hit in homes. In this lab kit you get everything you need to complete 3 experiments: fluorescence, phosphorescence, and chemiluminescence. It is rated for ages 14+ but I tried it (supervised) with Anthony who is 10 1/2 and here is a video below:

At Kiwi Co there are STEM kits and projects for ages 3-teens! The most popular choice are the Kiwi Crates. These are monthly subscriptions you can send once or every month for years. Pick an age (you can change that age at anytime) and they get a new kit every month and the longer you order your subscription for the more you save and even getting science kits sent for under $20!

The Xootr MG Scooter is an All-magnesium deck for light weight

Erin Sluka

2018 Holiday Gift Guide Feature: Xootr MG Scooter

With raising 3 boys ages 10-26 I have learned many lessons. One such lesson is quality over price! I really believe in only having to buy something once and so the quality is the most important factor in items the boys use. Quality is especially important if these items need to last to the next boy and keep passing on down. How does that relate to a scooter?

I can look back and it is safe to guess that I have purchased 4-5 $30-$40 scooters in the past several years. Then Anthony was sent this Xootr MG and I will be shocked if I ever need to buy another scooter again. This one will be around for grandkids one day for sure! Had I known this I wouldn’t have spent over $200 on scooters that are trash now because they did not last or the boys outgrew small features the cheaper scooters provided.

The Xootr MG completely impressed me from the moment I lifted it out of the box. I’d be lying if I told you I did not immediately ride it up and down our entryway and when Anthony asked for a turn on his new scooter I may have told him “in a minute”! I didn’t know how much I loved riding a smooth scooter. The base is wide enough for both my feet and it is so silent as it rolls with the smoothest bearings. This is the only scooter you will buy!

We live in a town where the majority of kids bike and walk to school. All of our schools are within a block form each other in a small town at the base of Mt. Rainier where a bike trail runs through the center. At about 8-9am and again from 3-4pm this trail is littered with kids on foot, bikes and scooters. Having a quality scooter that not only is built to last but can be racked up with a handful of elementary kids on a loaded bike storage space is important. I am confident this Xooter MG will take that beating just fine.

Features of the Xootr MG Scooter

  • All-magnesium deck for light weight
  • Wide platform -ride with feet side by side
  • Ultra-low-resistance polyurethane tires for a super-efficient glide
  • Shielded, self-lubricating bearings
  • Award-winning industrial design by Lunar Design
  • Patented steering and folding system
