Long-time readers to NeuFutur know that my daughter acts as a reviewer-of-sorts when it comes to toys. In fact, we’ve been collecting “unconventional” musical devices from the last 60 years with the hope that we’ll record something in the future. She was quite delighted when we were sent an Otamatone Deluxe, as one of her avorite Youtubers creates homages to famous music with the instrument. Priced at around $80, the…
We have received quite a number of different protein and other health-related bars over the course of our five or six years for the health and fitness section at NeuFutur. A great many of them just thought to add chocolate or other sweet elements into the mix to go and mask some of the more natural flavors that present themselves. Bobo’s Oat Bbars looks to take a different tack, providing…

Over the course of the last few years, we have received a number of headphones that have been designed for the children’s market. The trend for these products have been to skimp on the product as much as humanely possible, making it difficult for the product to stand up to any sort of normal usage. About a month ago, we received the FosPower Kids Headphones for review. Our daughter (4…

Before we moved to Arkansas, we were fortunate enough to stop by the Children’s Museum of Pittsburgh. Our daughter was a little bit on the young side at that point, so she was unable to properly get into some of the exhibits. While she was a bit older for our visit to the Little Rock Museum of Discovery, there were still a few things that she was unable to enjoy.…
Over the course of the last decade, the wife and I have made it a point to check out the natural history museums in any sort of location we are actively visiting. This means that we have been to natural history museums in places like Buffalo and Cleveland that could use a bit of updating. We had just moved down to the Dallas / Ft. Worth area and were fortunate…
Long-time readers of NeuFutur will know that we have moved down from Ohio to Arkansas in the last few months. After settling in to our new city, we decided to go to the Dallas area for some much-needed rest and relaxation. As a couple with a two-year-old daughter, the amount of attractions that we can visit is fairly limited. We found out that Lego had an attract – the Legoland…
We had our first long, multi-day trips out with our daughter in late August and had a tremendous time while doing so. The Oglebay Resort catered to her every whim while we went to Primanti Brothers down on the Strip. Before we left the area we stopped by the Children’s Museum of Pittsburgh; the museum is located close to PNC Park and is an easy destination to get to if you are…
The one thing that we have started to realize with our daughter is that she is increasingly mobile and annoyed by the fact that she is constrained in a small place like a pack and play whatever she is placed within. At 18 months, it became essential to go and change up how we ensure she was safe on a day-to-day basis. We were able to use the six panel Convertible…
We have gotten to the point with our daughter that she needs a bath everyday. Gone are the days where she may not get into everything. As a toddler, she roams around the house and finds dirt and grime that we had forgotten about. It becomes important to find cleaning supplies that will allow for our child to be clean without causing anything in the way of tears or heartache. Fairy…
There is a new sort a snack that is available for those individuals attempting to stay on a diet or to remove other harmful sorts of sweets from their daily routine. The ability to use fruit as a sweetening agent is something that a lot of confectioners and candy companies forget is a possibility but Goodness Knows uses the sweet elements of fruits to go and create a delectable bar.
The biggest issue that we have experienced when it comes to finding the perfect car seat for our child has to concern the balance between protection and form. We have reviewed a number of car seats that are heavy and unwieldy to the point that it becomes difficult too readily move the seat between cars. On a similar note we have also covered car seats that seem to skimp on the…
Having a good sort of baby wipes that are at one’s disposal when having an infant or toddler is essential. Anyone that has had a child in the past knows quite well how bad some of the wipes can be both in regards to the size of each wipe or the thickness of the material used in making the wipe. Even the amount of liquid that these wipes are saturated…

Our daughter has just reached the stage that she is mobile, toddling around the house. As a result we have needed to go and procure a gate to block off certain rooms in our house.
We were invited to try out the Chuck E. Cheese’s location on West Market Street in Akron, Ohio. Previously I had not been in a Chuck E. Cheese’s location for the better part of 20 years so I was a little unsure of what there was to expect from the pizza-cum-arcade location. Upon arriving we put in our order and picked out a booth for our family. I had thought that Chuck…

We had just gotten to the point where our child has moved away to some degree from their bottle and has the coordination that is required to begin using a sippy cup. The amount of horror stories that exist regarding the ability of sippy cups to take up gross and outright dangerous things like mold and mildew is considerable. We had been using products from the dollar store due to…
