Meet Spatter and Spark , two lovingly curious characters who will make their presence known on your tablet or smartphone through fun games and stories your kids will love.
Create a work of art with Spatter the porcupine artist who loves to display his masterpieces, or join Spark the fox as she concocts new inventions. Embark on adventures with these unique best friends and meet their friends along the way.
The Spatter and Spark App lets kids get creative on-the-go. From helping Spark clean up after an invention goes awry, to creating thoughtful works of art with Spatter, kids develop creative skills as well as problem solving capabilities that help their virtual friends get where they’re going.
Available for both iPhone and iPad, you can find Spatter and Spark online at the Apple App Store.

Having always donated outgrown clothing, I had never thought to donate my bras, often opting instead to toss them out. BreastOasis, a non-profit organization, provides women in shelters with this much-needed undergarment through the donations of new or lightly used bras—a perfect example of women helping women. Since its inaugural year in 2009, 135,000 bras have been collected and donated to battered women’s shelters, teen and rape crisis centers throughout the nation.
For many women, we find ourselves collecting bras that just sit in our dresser drawers—having either outgrown them or shrunk them in the wash—or often just dissatisfied with their fit. BreastOasis makes donating these bras easy. From sending you a certified package envelope to send your gently used bras in, to setting up drop-off locations in various states, donations can be made at your convenience.

Mom Central received samples of Blaze’s Balsamic Glazes in order to facilitate this review. The views expressed here are entirely our own.
I’ve always turned to reduced balsamic vinegar to add delicious bite to otherwise bland foods or dishes—from breakfast eggs to grilled meats. Acetum’s Blaze Balsamic Glazes prove the perfect addition to spice up any dish or salad.
With a variety of flavors ranging from fruity strawberry and fig, to truffle (my personal favorite) and porcini mushroom—blaze glazes boast balsamic flavor with zesty, fresh flavors that add just the right amount of zest to traditional dishes. Preparing a flavorful, gourmet meal proves simple with the help of these ready-made glazes. Their thick consistency makes them perfect for marinating chicken or steak, and adds delicious flavor to a fresh salad as an alternative to heavy dressings.

Mom Central received samples of Liquid Palisade in order to facilitate this review. The views expressed here are entirely our own.
An at home manicure can sometimes prove messy without the steady hand of professional nail technician. But we can’t always make it to the salon, often opting for our own version of a less than luxurious manicure at home. Liquid Palisade, an easy-to-apply barrier liquid proves necessary for a successful at-home manicure. Whether you’re rushing to slather on some polish before heading out the door, or dedicating some relaxing time to yourself—Liquid Palisade makes applying polish simple and precise.

Mom Central received a complimentary manicure and pedicure in order to facilitate this review. The views expressed here are entirely our own.
Spring is officially here in Boston and I know it is time to whip out my flip-flops and sandals. As a busy mom, I often find it hard to designate time for myself. There never seems to be enough time in the day to set aside some time for myself. Fortunately, I was offered a break from the daily grind and recently found myself at MiniLuxe in Wellesley, Massachusetts.
Just from the street appeal I could tell that a treat awaited me. The sleek, clean modern décor proves inviting and I was greeted by two friendly faces upon entering. They promptly escorted me to my pedicure station where my technician awaited my arrival and greeted me with a warm hello and smile.

Disclosure: Mom Central received samples from Rosie’s Bakery in order to facilitate this review. The views expressed here are entirely our own.
Mother’s Day proves to be the one day where we Moms can count on being pampered—that includes having someone else cook for us. From tarts and cupcakes to glazed cookies and fudge brownies, surprise Mom this Mother’s Day with fresh baked goods from Rosie’s Bakery. These sweets will not only satisfy her sweet tooth—they also look beautiful.
A favorite of ours here at Mom Central, Rosie’s Bakery never disappoints. We loved the Snow Queen Cupcake that boasted a delicious butter cream frosting and a decadent raspberry center. For those of us who love chocolate, the Fudge Swirl Brownies proved too tempting to resist—and were instantly gratifying.
Find all that Rosie’s has to offer online at rosiesbakery.com. Orders can be purchased by phone or in store.
