Aeromax Jr. Space Explorer Review & Giveaway

*I was not paid for this post but provided with a Jr. Space Explorer for the purpose of review and my honest opinion. The following is my thoughts and review....

Hot summer sun is beating down on us here in Oregon and that means camping and water fun! The boys and I were both so excited to have the opportunity to review a fun Jr. Space Explorer blow up water toy from Aeromax! 3 - 2 - 1 BLAST OFF!

I was quite impressed straight out of the box. It has so many details and looks like a real space shuttle. It even has QR codes right on the front you can scan with your smart phone or tablet. One shows actual video footage of a space shuttle launch with views of Earth as well as landing. The other gives space history. 

The Jr. Space Explorer is the perfect size for little ones and can hold up to 90 pounds. It is also very stable which is a must with water toys. It has a clear bubble window that looks like you are looking down on Earth and has realistic instrument panels and gauges.

Because of the nice size of the shuttle my boys were instantly in love and couldn't wait to get it in the water. It also was a bonus as it blows up quickly. As I mentioned above it is also very stable so both boys were comfortable floating and playing around on it. We used it many days on our camping trip and it seems durable and should last us many water adventures.

The Space Explorer is perfect for water but could also be used on dry land too. I think it will come in very handy this winter to bring in the house for the boys to play and use their imaginations. It's compact size means this fun toy can go just about anywhere!

This is just one of many (try 300+!) great fun and imagination required toys brought to you from Aeromax. Winning nearly every top toy industry awards, Aeromax was founded 16 years ago and continues to grow. Charitable giving is very important to Aeromax with thousands of toys donated.

It is hard to even know where to begin this post and even harder for me to write it. As most of us are parents to young children you all know how hard it can be to see our children sick or hurt. I can't even begin to imagine the feeling of finding out your child has the dreaded "C" word. Cancer.
No child should have to face cancer. They shouldn't even have to know what cancer means. They should be riding bikes, playing, going to school and just being kids!

Why am I writing this about cancer? Thankfully both of my boys are healthy. However a close family friend of mine hasn't been so lucky. Her little girl Jillie, just 2.5 years old was just diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia. A fast moving, aggressive form of leukemia that if not treated, could be fatal in a few months.

Luckily after weeks of being sick, Jillie was diagnosed and quickly moved to an amazing children's hospital. She will now be living in the Ronald McDonald housing for the next 6 to 12 months as she undergoes many many treatments and blood transfusions.

Remember she is just 2.5 years old. How do you even begin to explain to her what is going on and why she is now living far away from home and facing months and months of treatments?

So far Jillie is being a rockstar and keeping a smile on her face! She actually feels good with new healthy blood running through her! She is a fighter and one tough little girl. If anyone can fight this it is Jillie and her family.

In my small way of feeling less helpless and helping out in any way I can, I've started Rally for Jillie on my blog! I'm seeking sponsors willing to donate two items. One to add to the giveaways and one to send to Jillie. My hope is that this will keep her spirits up, help keep her occupied, to just keep her being a kid through this ordeal.

If I could hug the sponsors that have stepped up to help, I would in a heartbeat!  Their kindness and generosity to help a sick little girl says more about these companies than any review I could ever post. So if you are reading this, please take a moment to show some love to these amazing companies. To thank them for their small act of kindness that can go a long way in the journey to heal and cure baby Jillie.
