Amloid Toy Review

Disclosure: I received these products complimentary for review purposes. Although I receive these benefits I always share an opinion that is 100% mine.  

With summer right around the corner, I am sure you have seen all the Summer Toy Products displayed at your local retailer, from sand toys to bubbles, goggles, and chalk.

Many times I will recommend the Dollar Store for toys and items that are inexpensive.  Especially if you are going on a trip and you think the item may not return with you.  A thing to keep in mind is you get what you pay for.  So although I frequent the Dollar Store, most Dollar Store toys won't make it through the season.  

It pays to invest a little bit more money on a good quality set of sand toys and goggles if you want to use them ALL summer long.  This is one thing that I do every year, I would rather get some quality summer toys that will last, then have to make numerous stops picking up another set, especially since I have 4 BOYS!!!!  I've grabbed the cheap goggles and later regretted it, I remember a time, we bought cheap goggles and after one time jumping in the pool, they broke, others don't do the job of sealing out the water. That is never fun trying to explain to your kids.

We will use sand toys a lot with Summer Break, we frequent our local parks, our local lakes (Folsom Lake and Lake Natoma), we have beach trips planned and we have a sandbox in our backyard so these will be used daily. 

When you have multiple children and are going to use it all summer long, spending a little bit more money for something that will last is totally worth it in my opinion so for $14.99 for this Jumbo Beach Basket set at Sam's Club, I definitely recommend it.

In an upcoming blog post, one of my tips is to have a Kids Fun Kit.  A kit with things you bring out to entertain the kids if you are hosting a party.  These products would be great to add to your Kids Fun Kit or your birthday gift closet stockpile. Do you have one of those? Comes in handy with the wave of summer birthday party invites that can happen.

I love this NextWave Jumbo Beach Basket.  The basket is helpful when it's time to clean up, all the sand toys go right into the basket, it has a lid that snaps on and a carrying strap.  The basket has holes which makes it easy to shake off excess sand.  It's bright, colorful and sturdy.  


My boys thought the Aqua Creature Water Squirterz are really fun.  They love squirt guns, but this is something a little different.  This works best in a pool or in the bathtub, where you have plenty of water to refill it.  When the boys used it in the backyard, they grew tired of refilling it, but it's perfect for swimming pool fun and bath time where you have easy access to refill it.  It was easy to refill and squirt, you just submerge in water and squeeze to fill.  My three older boys ages 10, 8, and 6 had no problem filling it up.  


The Aqua Creature Swim Mask is fun, it's not your plain regular goggles.  My boys love animals and are fans of the Wild Kratts, so these goggles helped play right into their imaginative play.  They feel strong and durable and I love all the details.
