KidzVuz Holiday House Party

Written by Role Mommy’s Danielle Feigenbaum

Last week my tween, Role Mommy’s Beth Feldman and I attended the KidzVuz Holiday Party. We had an absolute blast. Co-founders Rebecca Levey and Nancy Friedman sure know how to throw a party! My almost ten year old and I had so much fun checking out all the amazing sponsors. Here’s a pic of us when we arrived getting excited to explore the party. If you are wondering what KidzVuz is, it’s a totally safe video review sharing site for kids age 7-12. It’s the only online destination exclusively dedicated to letting tweens have their say and share their views about the stuff they love. My girl (aka piano girl – her KidzVuz name) loves to go on the site and check out what her peers think about the latest tech, toys & games, books, movies and more. Ok, here are some fab gift ideas for the special kid in your life…
It was definitely puppy love at first site for my daughter and Zoomer. Spin Master Toys was on hand featuring Zoomer the dog (@zoomerpup), one of the hottest toys of the year. She would not stop talking about it and since we have no plans of getting a real dog, this may be the next best thing!

Hasbro (@HasbroNews) was also there showcasing classics with a new twist…Twister Rave, Nerf Rebelle, and the awesome Furby Boom. Below is my very own Katniss Everdeen testing out the Nerf Rebelle. She really loved Furby and could not believe it when she got her very own to bring home! Thanks to Hasbro, Furby is the newest member of our family.



Downtown Bookworks (@DowntownBkworks) is a fantastic children’s book publishing company. They offer so many wonderful books for kids of all ages, you have to check them out. Julie Merberg, President of Downtown Bookworks was there decorating Super Hero cookies from the incredible Super Hero Cookbook. Here is Julie with my daughter creating a Superman cookie masterpiece.

iScream (@NYIscream) is one of my daughter’s favorite brands! Her mouth dropped open when she saw them at the party with all their comfy pillows on display and candy bar with jelly beans, gummy bears and sand candy! She has an iScream lunch box, cupcake pillow she used for camp, Candylicious sweatshirt, folders for school and the list goes on and on. If you need a girl gift for ages 4-14, look no further than iScream! They have some cool boy gifts too, especially for camp.

Some other great sponsors that were there… The Broadway League -(@TheBwayLeague) bringing Kids Night on Broadway to theaters around the country. I know I am going to take my kids to Kids Night on Broadway, they absolutely love going to see Broadway shows.
What would a party be without food? @FairwayMarket, @StonefireNaan, @GoGreenMustache @ChloesFruit, @Zico were some of the yummy, healthy foods and drinks we sampled. And last but not least you need great music and the adorable kid DJ, Kai, from @FuziPop was spinning all the hottest tunes. My daughter kept saying “I love this song” the entire time. If you need music for an event, check out Fuzipop.
Hopefully this post gave you some great ideas of what to buy this holiday season. If you know a tween, tell them about KidzVuz.com so they can be in-the-know of all the hottest things out there and even record their own videos of what they love!
