Imaginative Play With Oball Go Grippers

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Kids II for IZEA. All opinions are 100% mine.

imaginative-play-with-oball-go-grippersOne of the first toys Brooke played with as a baby was a pink Oball rattle. The toy was uniquely designed so that she could grip the ball, yet still throw and roll it, all while rattling. She also has an Oball shaker toy that has been a favorite. From that moment, Oball became a brand that I knew provided great toys for interactivity and imaginative play. As Brooke gets older, we are starting to change up her toys and even let her pick out toys that interest her. I was really excited to hear that Oball is launching their Go Grippers Collection that is created for Brooke’s age group and enables children to use their imaginations during playtime. With easy to grasp and fun-sized vehicles, kids can easily hold them to enjoy interactivity and imaginative play.

 

img_9347What makes Kids II Oball stand out from other toys, is their unique design that is really crafted for a particular age. They focus on being easy to grip, and thus allowing the child to really play without fighting frustration of slippery toys.

 

The Go Grippers collection includes:

 

Oball Go Grippers™ Bounce ‘N Zoom Speedway™

From the moment I pulled this out of the box, Brooke was intrigued. She is still learning the ins and outs of this speedway, but is so loving it.

 

Oball Go Grippers™ Vehicle Assortment

This is one of Brooke’s favorites. She immediately picked them up and started using them with all the other toys in the collection. She loaded them in the car carrier and even put them in the dump truck. She also slides them along the couch and on my leg. She thinks its the funniest when I drive them on her leg. She just laughs and laughs.

You can see Brooke playing with the loader and putting cars in the top. She loves that this toy moves in so many ways. She was amazed when we showed her all the different positions of the loader.

 

img_9348Oball Go Grippers Dump Truck™

She is still figuring out how to move the top part of the dump truck, but she really likes pushing this one around the living room.

 

img_9351Oball Go Grippers Car Carrier™

This is one of her favorites as well, she loves that the side comes down so she can put cars in. She opens and closes it, then opens it and closes. Its on repeat for sure!

 

img_9354Oball Go Grippers Race Cars™

These are another favorite! I have really been working with Brooke on counting, so I love how these race cars are numbered. It has been a great tool to help me reinforce counting while we are playing. I love this little detail.

 

Brooke absolutely loves playing with the Go Grippers collection and I love watching her explore and learn new things through playtime. You can shop this collection for your child at Toys R Us. Plus, enter to WIN the full Oball Go Grippers collection for your child by commenting below with your favorite toy from the collection. Be sure to include your email address, so that I can contact you if you win! Giveaway ends on 10/30.

    The Oball rattle ball was one of the first toys my little guy played with too! I know he’d LOVE the speedway because he loves to push his cars/trucks along a track! [email protected]

    My daughter Livia would love the Vehicle Assortment also! Her favorite thing to do is put two things in her hands and slide around on them while she crawls! These would be perfect for this! She loves her Oball, so this would definitely be a hit! [email protected]

    My son would love every piece in this collection (he’s 2). However, I think he would most love the Speedway with all those ramps and the claw. [email protected]

    Oh these look so fun! I love the design, the way they can grip them and the bright colors! I really like all that you can do with each toy. Lots to keep their attention! My grand daughter who is 14 months would love every one of these. I need these for play at my house! Hope I win but if not they are on my list for Christmas!

    We have always loved Oball since my girl could grasp. I think the dump truck looks awesome for my little girl. I even saw at ToysRus they have a pink car set that would go great with the whole set!

    My little boy loves all his Oball toys but he has been especially loving his Oball Football recently. Completely fitting for football season. I’m excited to see these toys grow with him.

  • I went into Aerie to “just look”… and somehow ended up trying on all of THIS. 😂

Comment “SHOP” for the links.

These were the first 5 looks that caught my eye, and honestly… Aerie understood the assignment (part 2 coming soon!). 

From everyday basics to pieces that instantly make you feel a little more put together, there were way too many good finds.

Which look would you actually wear? 👀

I’m wearing XS.

  • Grimaldi’s has been a part of our family memories for years, so getting to experience their Kids Pizza Academy together made this visit extra special. 🍕 

From stretching the dough to choosing our toppings 🧀 and making our own pizzas, it was such a fun way to add another memory to the list.

There’s just something special about the places that become part of your family’s story and @grimaldispizzeria is definitely one of those for us. ❤️

Baseball season (and everyday style) just got a major upgrade. Kev is loving his new fit from Baseball 101. It’s the perfect mix of sporty, comfortable, and seriously cool.

If your kid is into baseball, they’ll love these pieces! Use code MCLARKE for 10% off on your own gear. 🙌

Before school pickup, I pack quick snack boxes with pretzels, fruit, cheese, and the NEW @QuakerChewy Protein Granola Bars, so everything is ready when it’s time to head to activities. 

They have the same delicious chewy taste and texture we already love, and each bar has 5g of protein and 10g of whole grains, making them an easy addition to our snack boxes. They come in Caramel Chocolate Chip and Maple & Brown Sugar flavors - both are equally amazing!

What’s one snack that’s always in your after-school rotation?

  • No gatekeeping here… this is my #1 planner tip for middle school. ✏️📓

I’m teaching my daughter how to actually use a planner this year, and @pilotpenusa FriXion Vibe Erasable Pens are the MUST HAVE. Because assignments, tests, activities and plans are going to change and I don’t want her planner covered in confusing, crossed-out dates. 😂

I also love that she can choose her colors based on her vibe. We’re using ZenFocus for schoolwork and assignments and DreamGlow for goals, creative ideas and the things she’s excited about this year. 💚💙💗💜

Middle school is a big enough adjustment. If I can help her feel a little more organized and prepared going into it, I’m calling that a win.

If you’re looking for a relaxing Galveston, Texas resort with a little luxury, put The San Luis Resort on your list. 

From the gorgeous Texas coast views and poolside cabana (the fruit + champagne were such a nice touch 🥂) to an amazing poolside lunch, it was the perfect way to slow down and enjoy some time together.

We spent the evening at Grotto + grabbed gelato, started the next morning with an incredible breakfast buffet at Blake’s Bistro, and finished our getaway with a couples massage at the spa. 🧖‍♀️✨

A beautiful resort, good food, time to unwind, and quality time together… honestly, what more could you ask for? ❤️
