VtechKids Switch & Go Dinos Review and Giveaway

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of VTechKids for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.
At some point in nearly every boy's childhood (and in many girls' childhoods too), there begins a fascination with two things ~ dinosaurs and cars!   At some point in nearly every adult's time as a parent, they discover the wonder of the Vtech brand.   Well, the folks at Vtech did it again.  The brand that's a favorite of so many parents and kids combined two of a child's favorite playthings into one cool toy.
My kids and I recently had the chance to check out two new toys in Vtech's brand new line ~ these cool Switch & Go Dinos.  With a few simple twists and turns, they switch back and forth between dinosaur and car.  With a push of a button, a neat little LCD screen will show different facial expressions for the dinosaur and drivers for the car.  With a push of another button, sound effects bring the toys to life with up to 30 fun little phrases and different dinosaur facts.  We had so much fun testing them out and seeing all they could do.

Aren't they cool?  I loved the way my son and daughter played together with Horns the Triceratop.  They really liked switching it back and forth from a dinosaur to a car, and the sounds effects and LCD screen were a cool extra feature.  Can't you see the little dinosaur lover or car enthusiast in your life just loving these?

When I said these were part of Vtech's brand new line, I wasn't joking.  The four Starter Dinos: Sliver the T-Rex, T-Don the Pteranodon, Tonn the Stegosaurus and Horns the Triceratops just became available on  May 21 exclusively at Amazon.com for a suggested retail price of $15.99.  Beginning June 18, they’ll be on sale at VTechKids.com and they'll be available at major retailers in Fall 2012.  Also available in the Fall will be Attila the Ankylosaurus (SRP: $24.99), Span the Spinosaurus (SRP: $29.99), Brok the Brachiosaurus (SRP: $49.99)   I can totally see these being the hot toy this season, so I think it's cool that you can Buy today on Amazon and then add to your child's collection this Fall.
Okay,  now if you're an observant reader, you may have noticed that I said I got two new toys from the Vtech line, but I only showed my kids playing with one of them (Horns the Triceratop).  That's because I saved one of them for one of you!!
You see, I just recently passed 5,000 Facebook followers!  That milestone is just so amazing for me and I'm so grateful to have so many of you stopping by to check out our ideas.  I'm sure that a good percentage of those 5,000 moms, dads, grandparents, teachers, nannies etc. who have liked us on Facebook have a dinosaur and car loving kid in their life.  So, I have Silver the T-Rex here and ready to giveaway to one lucky reader.
