Yesterday we had a very special event at our house; a Toy Story 3 Action Links party! Thanks to Mom Select and Mattel, I got to host a party showcasing five Toy Story 3 Action Links sets. So, I invited over some of Joshua’s BFFs for snacks, drinks, and FUN! Mattel also sent a Buddy Pack of 2 characters for each child to take home. There were some happy campers at my house!
There were also some really happy moms. Because the Toy Story 3 Action Links sets are all connectable AND interchangeable, they kept 8 children ages 3-7 very busy for two hours! Literally the three other moms and I got to chat and had very few interruptions. It was awesome! The big boys like Joshua and his first-grade friends could operate the toys all on their own and didn’t need us to get up and keep fixing or re-setting them. It was glorious! The smaller kids had a great time at the party, too, but keep in mind these sets are for ages 5+ – that is if you want them to be able to play with them by themselves while you get a few minutes of peace!! Here are some more scenes from our fun afternoon:
Although I was really excited to get these toys for my kiddos to review, I was a little nervous that they would require a lot of work and maintenance from me. But like I said, that was TOTALLY not the case! Joshua at six & a half is perfectly capable of setting these up on his own, and rearranging them in lots of different fun combinations. And since all the sets work together, there are TONS of options for different stunt combinations. So, I give the Toy Story Action Links sets a very enthusiastic two thumbs up!
We had a wonderful party, thanks so much to Mom Select and Mattel for letting us in on the Action Links trend!

I was provided with five Toy Story 3 Action Links sets by Mom Select and Mattel. This post is totally my own and was not edited by them in any way!
I am still stunned that 7 boys played so well together!!!! It was heaven to have adult conversation at a play date without interruptions!
Those look awesome! Jay is obsessed with Toy Story 3…good gift ideas!
