Jurassic World Live is a great experience for young dinosaur lovers. My family and I went to the opening show at the Barclays Center and enjoyed the time we spent together.



Some of the all time favorites of the dinosaur species were featured and looked very realistic. Some of those Dino’s included the T- Rex, Stegosaurus, Triceratops, Velociraptor and the Troodon.

The smaller dinosaurs had performers inside bring the dinosaurs to life. The larger dinosaurs appeared to me machine-controlled.


Even though the live show is not an exact replica of the events of the movie, it had a great story line and the actors were very animated throughout.


It was great to see features like the Gyrosphere in person and not just on the big screen.

The changing scenery, action-packed performance and realistic components such as fire kept my 6-year old engaged. We were glad to see that the nearly 2 hour long show kept his attention and most of all his excitement steady throughout. It could also be that the 15 minute intercession helped.

All in all, it was great to experience. Bravo to the creators who did. Good job bringing elements of the movie to life. I encourage you to check it out.

Valentine’s Day is a great day to get crafty and festive. Whether making cards, sweet snacks or decorating your home, adding a little heart (pun in tended) can really bring out the fun.


Did you know that one in four parents plan to decorate for Valentine’s Day this year? According to a Juicy Juice Family Occasions Survey, parents will spread the love with fun and festive décor.

To help inspire families, I'm sharing this Cupid’s Arrow Caprese Bites Recipe, along with other Juicy Juice DIY crafts and recipes for Valentine’s Day.

And this year, make your creations with better-for-you drink options like the 59-oz Fruitifuls Organic and no sugar Juicy Waters to help kiddos can avoid a sugar overload.

Materials

Roma tomatoes
Basil leaves
Cheese squares of preference
Toothpicks


Step One

• Using your favorite cheese square snacks to make the arrow heads and fletching. Each snack will require two squares of cheese, one for the head and the other for the fletching.
• For the arrowhead, carefully cut one square into a triangle.
• For the fletching, do the same and then cut a smaller triangle, so that when you are done with this piece, it should look like a “V”.
• Wash your basil leaves.

Step Two

• For each snack, you will need two tomatoes. For each tomato, cut 1/3 off in a diagonal.
• Then, arrange the tomatoes along the cuts to form a heart shape.
• Once they are arranged, drive a toothpick through the middle of your “heart,” like cupid’s arrow.
• Next, attach the cheese arrowhead and fletching to each side of the toothpick, and make sure the points face the same way.

Enjoy each snack with a basil leaf and a Juicy Juice 100% juice box!
