MitrisMommy asked a question

Where can I order Leapfrog Wordlaunch extra letters? I recently purchased one at a used store and am only missing one letter..

katd1026 answered MitrisMommy's question

I understand the frustration of missing parts to toys and learning games. I have no good news for you either in this situation as the letters are not sold separately. You do have the option of calling the manufacturer direct or email them and explain what you are missing and in most cases they will be able to assist. Here is the information you need to hopefully obtain that missing letter. Please email LeapFrog Customer Support, or call 1-800-701-5327. Hope this helps. I also added shops below in case you need to replace the entire system. Thank you for letting us assist in your search. Good luck.

Any unscented bubble baths or something other than watermelon, fruit punch etc. possibly for sensitive skin as well? For my 2 yr old little boy.

It appears that walgreens has a baby bath from Aveeno on their site so the chances of it being in their store is pretty good. This one says for dry, itchy skin, sensitive skin, diaper rash & chicken pox: http://www.walgreens.com

And Walmart carries an Aveeno baby bath in a calming vanilla/lavendar scent for sensitive skin:
http://www.walmart.com

Burt's Bee's has their own baby wash, walmart carries some of their products now so you might find it in that section of the store. One reveiw on their site the lady says that this is the ONLY baby wash that her child can use due to sensitive skin, so you might want to give it a try. http://www.burtsbees.com

Where I can buy a mini hand held piano? I used to have one when I was little and am looking for one for my son. Like the one in this link, http://cgi.ebay.com/General-Mills-Rocky-Road-cereal-Mini-Piano-w-song-book-/180508432752?cmd=ViewItem&pt=Fast_Food_Cereal_Premiums&hash=item2a07241970

Hello and welcome to IM Shopping!

I too use to have one when I was younger, and actually bought my nephew a used one (which he promptly banged the keys then began to step on afterwards) but it was still fun for me!

I like the book style piano books because they assist with developing reading and cognition skills as well. I based my search on wanting to find new books rather than used and risking them already being broken. I also searched for characters that you're son may be familiar with such as Dora and Mickey Mouse.

I searched for Mini Keyboard books but the variety available were really down to these three. The rest were styled like books but lacked keyboards. They were more like the books from the 90's were you push the button on the side that had the picture which was similar to the one in the text.

If you're looking for something similar to a genuine keyboard then the Hunchback book is the best. You'll be able to see the picture on the Borders website. (It's also beneficial to sign up for the Borders email; they have amazing deals and savings even if I can't buy them all,lol). Next the Dora and Mickey Mouse books are similar in that they light up to show your son where to push next. You may be able to turn the lights off later on to encourage memory development.

It's hard to recommend any of these but if any I recommend Mickey Mouse for familiarity and the Hunchback for future development plus price. I couldn't figure out for them exactly how big they were but I hope they are of acceptable size for your son to be able to handle on his own.

I hope this helps!

*The piano I am looking for is about 5 inches long by maybe 3 inches tall. Some of the links I clicked on took me to a page where it says no longer exists.

MitrisMommy asked a question

My cell phone is also an MP3 Player, its the Cricket Samsung Messager ll R560, I was wondering if there is a connection for it, so that I can listen to my music in my car, you know through the car speakers. I know there are some for regular MP3 Players, but would it also work for my phone? Thanks.

iDealGolfer answered MitrisMommy's question

Stop flipping through radio stations to find something you want to listen to! The iPod Compatible FM Transmitter and Car Charger allows you to easily play and listen to your iPod's music library over your car or home stereo. The FM Transmitter plugs into the dock connector and is powered by your iPod, with no awkward cables getting in the way while you are enjoying your music. The included car charger allows you to charge your iPod while on the road as well. It plugs right into the FM transmitter so you can listen to your music while charging your iPod.

MitrisMommy asked a question

What is a good hair thinning product that will really work? my boyfriend is 26 years old and going pretty thin, its on the top of his head, it looks like his receding hairline is going to go way back, I hope you know what I'm talking about.. it's hard to describe. Anyway I've heard of using horse shampoo? Anyone else know of any products that are proven to work? Thanks

meadow98 answered MitrisMommy's question

I have used Mane N Tail horse shampoo for my horse, as well as myself. Although this shampoo and conditioner give your hair volume and shine with a thicker appearance, I don't think it actually makes the hair thicker, nor does it grow hair. Your boyfriend's doctor may be able to prescribe a prescription medication that grows hair in the form of Minoxidil. It is very effective in regrowing lost hair and stimulating hair follicles. His doctor can discuss benefits and risks of this medication.

MitrisMommy asked a question

I'm looking for a good set of eye shadow, the kind that come with like 3 diff. shades to bring out my eyes. My eyes are really dark, almost black. I've seen the palettes (I think thats what they're called) for brown eyes, but my eyes are darker than that. I have dark brown hair, my eye brows are darker than that and I'm pretty light skinned. If possible I want it to kinda look natural :)

turnerktmarie answered MitrisMommy's question

I know the importance of good eye shadow. I get complimented on my eye shadow ALL the time, I work at a Dental office and one morning all 8 of the girls asked me to bring my makeup in the morning and apply it for them before work. I have a couple of favorite sets.

Cover Girl Shimmering Sands

it doesn't look like much in the picture but it has the best shimmer and sheen!
