Toca Hair Salon Me - Toca Boca App Review

We at the One Quarter Family LOVE Toca Boca apps! You can read our reviews of some of their other apps HERE and HERE.

They've been busy lately focusing on their sister company, Sago Sago, it seems, but they are coming out with a new Hair Salon app TODAY and I'm super excited! (Is it wrong that I get excited about apps marketed for kids?)

Check out the preview video:

    

I'm really excited, because I know the Little Man will be excited. If you remember, it was me searching for a hair cutting app for him in the first place that got us started on our Toca Boca addiction. Their original Toca Hair Salon was their first app we downloaded. This new app takes it to a whole other level and it looks like fun. Can't wait to download it!

These Are a Few of My Favourite Things

I was thinking recently about how overwhelmed I've been - and just really drained and tired - so I forget to note all the little things that are good. Today I'm taking some time to myself and documenting this snapshot in time. This is the Little Man at three years and not quite two months:

"Excuse me" comes out of his mouth sounding like, "New Knee!" and it cracks me up every time.

When I tell him to say "Merry Christmas!" (I want him to be able to say it to everyone at the airport on the way to Florida) he says, "Merry Christmas, Happy Halloween and Happy Birthday to YOOOOOU!" I'm not sure how to get him to stop at the Merry Christmas part. He gets really excited.

His favourite toy: trains

Fave colour: green

When we ask him what he wants to be when he grows up, he says, "fix cars all day." (I'm not even sure where he got that one from. Maybe he's channeling my father?)

His favourite activity: blowing bubbles

His favourite non-toy activity: getting his hair cut. It's the best freaking thing in the world. He can look forward to a haircut for DAYS.

Fave foods: fries and boiled eggs

Fave drink: chocolate soy milk (second place, strawberry soy milk)

Fave show: Wallace and Gromet

My fave part of the day with him: early morning when he comes running in my room. He climbs in bed with me and gives me hugs. If I'm really lucky, he'll pinch my nose and say, "beep!" That's like our "I love you." I used to do that to him when he was small, so it was cool when he suddenly started doing it to me. When he's had enough cuddles, he says, "time to wake up mama, hurry!" and we start our day.
