Movieeee

Did anyone else go to see "The Shining" last night? It was free movie night at Brooklyn Bridge Park. I had only seen bits and pieces of the movie before, so I was glad that I was going to be able to see the whole movie ..in one of the coolest ways!

The movie was NOT kid-friendly, though entertaining none-the-less!



If you have never seen a movie at Brooklyn Bridge Park, I highly recommend it. No matter what the movie is, you're sure to have a good time if you bring a blanket and some good friends! I recommend bringing a pillow too for extra comfort. If you don't, you'll find yourself moving around in 2353467 positions like I did.

Bring it Clouds!

Okay so I have refused to buy an umbrella this year because not only am I incredibly stubborn but I'm also very stylish. I just haven't found the right umbrella. They just can't seem to live up to my snobby tastes...UNTIL NOW! Luckily my days of walking through the door resembling a drowned cat are over! We just got in the cutest umbrellas from Kidorable. Now my only problem is deciding between the pirate umbrella (I mean come on, It's got a sword for a handle!)
Or between the Kidorable's English Rose umbrella (if it sounds familiar it's because it's from Madonna's book), I'm a sucker for polka dots.

Recall!!!!

This morning Jessica informed me of a recall being made by Haba. One of our customers called the store and told her that the Haba toys: Rally, and Pirate Joe. It doesn't end at that, after conducting some research online I found that at least 14 of the Haba toys we carry were also recalled. Listed here are the pictures and names of products that were recalled according to the Consumer Product Safety Commission :

Triola

Little Hearts Stroller Toy

Speedy

Pacifier Holders (bear and bunny)

Rally

Trio

Bella

Bonita

Little Heart Clutching Toy

Lucy

Belinda

Pirate Joe

Flori

The complaints involved 15 customers who witnessed their children sucking on the small parts of the toys which included mirrors, bells, and beads. First and foremost ladies and gentlemen, don't ever leave your child unsupervised when they are less than a year old, second make sure to contact Haba at (800) 468-6873 ext. 107 between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. ET Monday through Friday for a refund, or product replacement if you have purchased any of the items listed above. Although here at Area we love to help, we can't do anything about this, only the manufacturer can.

Thanks & Be Safe!
