Books and backpacks have a natural affinity to one another, so this giveaway is sponsored by Barefoot Books and Land’s End. Barefoot Books has been featured in publications such as Time and O Magazines, The New York Times, and [...]
I have three boys. Boys love Legos. Lots of Legos. They definitely get played with in this house, too. I’ve seen (and stepped on) towers, cars, animals, alien dinosaurs, flying robots, space vehicles…you name it. They. Love. Legos. So when I was approached by Box4Blox to try out their product, I said “Of course!” I [...]
