K2 Rollerblades

We've come a long way baby!   Apparently the K2 brand of roller blades is the Rolls Royce of skates.   My 16 year old grandson recently decided that he wanted to learn how to ice skate.  I know, I know.   Most kids this age already know how to skate, but I think today's kids are more into other things so never partook in the simple pleasures.   This new found interest and talent made him want to excel so he is taking lessons.   I have to admit that he is a quick learner when it is something that he really wants.   So, just how did ice skating translate into roller blading?
Chris's skating progress. Before he got his new skates.
As he gained more confidence in ice skating, which you can see in this video after lesson 3, he decided to try roller skating....again.   I know more than anyone that those wheels are much more challenging than blades, but much more convenient to grab your skates and  go outside to skate in the road and pavement. 
​Well, It was his 16th Birthday and this is what he wanted. What he wants, he gets. Hey, you are only 16 once in a lifetime.

Non-Toxic Face & Body Paint

The face and body paint kit for kids and sold byBlue Squid is everything you need for a great kids party.  Nothing screams FUN like a bunch of kids with painted faces!   This set is great because it is non-toxic and FDA approved, perfect for children.   The set comes with a large brush for wide coverage and 2 smaller brushes for detail.   The brushes are good quality makeup brushes that do not shed, at least not so far. I also found a packet of stencils in the package which is great because you do not have to be a Picasso to create a professional look.

This Smile says it all!
I have had some experience with the crayon type as well as the cheap face paint kits that are sold around Halloween but they pale in comparison to this professional kit.   Having the right tools and quality makeup makes all the difference.   The colors are rich and vibrant and easy to apply.   Don't be afraid to be bold because it washes off with soap and water.  It may take a little rubbing but does come off fairly easily.   I like to use cold cream to initially wipe off the majority and then wash as usual.
The face paint is also great for sporting events.  Paint your teams's logo and wear their colors proudly.   I happen to know a few grown men that will have fun with these come football season.    
I was part of a test group who received this face paint at little or no cost in exchange for testing, evaluation and unbiased review.   Based on my experience with this product, I would definitely recommend it.  It is fun and affordable.  Great for parties and events.  It is professional quality and a little goes a long way.   You can purchase a set for yourself on Amazon.   Be sure to select Blue Squid.
