Holiday Shopping Ideas from Kate Gosselin of TLC's "Jon and Kate Plus 8"
November 20, 2008
With eight-year-old twins and four-year-old sextuplets, Kate has a full shopping list this holiday season! Shopping for this many children -- all with their own unique personalities -- isn't easy, but by buying early and making lists, she stays organized and gets it all done before the holidays. A few things on her holiday list this year:
V.Smile Motion
"My kids are always on the move, and I like to harness their energy toward something productive and educational," says Kate. V.Smile Motion will keep them active -- all while learning basic skills in reading, math, spelling and more! Plus they'll have fun using the wireless, motion-activated controller as they play with characters from some of their favorite movies like Kung Fu Panda™ and Wall.E.™
$59.99 Ages 3 & up
Cyber Pocket
The Gosselin family travels a lot and, with Cyber Pocket, the kids will be able to take their favorite games wherever they go -- whether it is with Kate to the grocery store or on a family vacation. The included V.Link allows them to access a secure Web site where they can unlock additional games, or where mom and dad can track their learning progress.
