Look ma' I can jam!


VTech's Kidijamz is a gift that will grow with your child. This music studio is great for letting your little one explore their creativity! It allows you to play fun children's songs in 6 different music styles (like techno, rock, hip hop, etc..) and it also has corresponding sound effects. The keyboard even comes complete with a record to scratch! One of my favorite features was the option to put it in teaching mode. When you do so the song you select to play will light up the key your child should hit to play it. It makes it possible for a child who can't read to play a song! The microphone allows you to make your voice both high & low (which was endlessly amusing for my little guy).

Your child can also use the detachable music player to record him as he jams! When he has to go somewhere he can bring the music player along and not only can he listen to the song he made but he can also share them with friends and family. We have been testing this toy out for about a month now and my 3 year old is not tired of it yet! It is also extremely durable - seeing as how it has experienced several rough falls down the stairs. The only downside - Kidijamz is loud. Wait...don't rule it out yet because the headphones will also plug into the keyboard. Thank goodness for that feature!

You can win your own Kidijamz! This giveaway is a special opportunity for Now What Baby subscribers only. If you are not a subscriber it's not to late to sign up and to enter the contest! We will have a few more subscriber only giveaways to come in the next few weeks...make sure you don't miss out! Subscribers to enter to win visit VTech and comment back with the answer to the following question - "What is your family's favorite holiday tradition?" The deadline to enter is November 30th at midnight EST. Winners have 72 hours to claim their prize before an alternate winner is chosen.

Our family tradition is that every Christmas eve, we sit and talk about the year and what has happened and we identify what has made us happy , stronger or sad. Its a cathartic, healing time yet joyous at the same time!

Our family tradition is that no adult is allowed to open their presents until the kids have opened theirs. The kids love it and take their time more over their gifts and we have so many kids in the family is takes forever!! - make for a great fun day.

I just subscribed! First we take our presents over to my husband's parents' house. Then we all sit around with our pile of gifts, then we go around in a circle and each open one gift at a time. It makes the present opening last longer, and you get to actually see what other people got! Thanks for the giveaway!

On Christmas Eve, we always go to church as a family and bring our candles home to see whose stays lit the longest. On Christmas morning, we open the stockings first, have breakfast and then open the rest of the gifts one at a time. After we're done opening gifts, we have our turkey dinner for a late lunch and have family games, etc. in the afternoon.

What we do for Christmas is to celebrate with different foods, such as turkey, tamales, rice, salsa, apple pie, etc... so that the kids get to see the best of both cultures and also they get to stay up late, (if they can!) and mingle with family and friends-when they wake up in the morning, the tree is beautifully decorated and santa has arrived!

My daughters would have a blast with this!

My favorite family tradition is the one my husband and I started with our oldest daughter when she was just a baby- going out to look at the beautiful Christmas light displays every year. We usually go out twice. The one time we'll all stay in the car and just drive around through the neighborhoods looking at the personal displays. The other time we get all bundled up and go out to see the big 1,000,000,000+ light display one of the local churches does. It's always so much fun, and provides lots of great photo ops. :)

Our traditions have changed a little since we are grown and have children of our own. But I am passing mine on to my son. We have always opened one present on Christmas Eve which I am not sure if that is a good thing since we were so eager to open the rest we got no sleep. We always made cookies and put milk out for Santa before bed. Then Christmas morning we would all get up and open the presents from youngest to oldest. The oldest has a little more patience and that is why they are last. This way everyone gets to see what everyone got. Of course the little ones didn't care what the oldest got, they just wanted to play with theirs!

I love the fact that this toy teaches as well as lets them play and then records it so they can hear it played back. So neat!

Read or watch. The kids love it and since they haven't seen the items in a year it is like a new gift until the next Christmas.

every year each family member (grandparents, sibblings, ALL chilren) are giving a Chistmas ornament (you know the good ones)and the 1st year it spends on Grandmas tree, when packed up it is marked the year and from who, every year after that it goes on the tree of the one whom recieved it. When you are old enough to have your own tree, you have a pretty good start of decorations, a sense of history and the reminder of who gave it to you.

All our families live in England and Belgium so we celebrate the Holidays with friends here. But on Christmas day we always ring our parents, grandparents and the kids sing some songs to them. I know it's nothing fancy but it means a lot to our family. Living so far away is hard around the holidays. Thanks for this fantastic giveaway!

Our tradition is that we each take turns opening a present at a time.

Our favorite holiday tradition is to celebrate Christmas Eve with an evening dinner.

As a kid my favorite tradition was choosing a family in need and buying presents with money that we had saved up all year. We would then go drop the gifts off on the family's doorstep, ring the bell, and run.
Now that I have my own small family, my favorite tradition is where we write each other a letter expressing our love and gratitude to that person. Then we give the letter to each other on Christmas morning

Getting together with family on Thanksgiving and going around the room to hear what everyone is thankful for.

DH and I always pick mistletoe from a tree down the block and hang in the doorway to start the holiday out right. Another great tradition is reading about Jesus' birth on Christmas Eve with the family.

Thanks for the contest!
