Egglo Entertainment: A Review

3/11/2014

It was with great excitement that my son tore (literally) open the package from Egglo Entertainment, he'd been waiting days for them to arrive.  He was so disappointed when he learned he needed to charge up the eggs before they could be used.  (what a let down that was for him).   But once they were charged up!  FUN FUN!
Egglo Review
This is the box the eggs came in.   The box is well made.    It would hold up well for storage if NOT opened by an eager "I don't have to be careful" boy child.  :)  The box comes with instructions on how to charge the eggs (lay them in the sun for a couple of hours).  The eggs come in a variety of pastel colours and all colours fit together so some eggs can be all yellow, or they can be randomized.
Egglo Review
I allowed my son to simply have fun with the eggs over the course of a couple of weeks.  We planned to have an early Easter egg hunt with a fellow homeschooling family.   Allowing him to play with them makes sharing that much easier.  :)  I found these glowing eggs in different places...a favourite hiding spot seemed to be my bed!  :)   Don't they show up nicely in a dark room?
Picture
Then came the time for the Easter Party.   The children were stoked.   We took time to talk about the real meaning of Easter and how it's not just about knowing the facts, but letting our hearts and actions be changed by what Christ did.

I attempted to read through the book with the children, but it was simply too long for eager children to sit through.   Both their mom and I decided that a video would go over much much better when working with excitable children.  

Listening to
The Egg-cellent Easter Adventure (book audio download) is good, the narrator has an easy listening voice.  I was able to do this with my son at home, but not at the party as I didn't bring it.  :)
Picture
I learned that I am not highly skilled at taking pictures of children looking for glowing eggs in the dark.  (I really tried but well.... since I'm not posting any pictures you can guess how well they didn't turn out).  :)  I did get this rather silly picture of the very happy youngsters showing off their winnings.  :)   LOOK!!!!  :)
Picture
Reading the scrolls was a fun part of it.  I thought it good to listen to the children..
"What does yours say?"
"I like that one!  It fits."
"I can't read this, can you help me?"  Oh.. I KNOW THAT WORD! "MOM!   Listen to what this says!"
Not what I expected at all.   I thought they would be pretty ho-hum about opening the scrolls, but the scrolls were a hit.
Picture
My goal is to share this with the youth director at the church that my son goes to Kids Club at.   I think doing this as a large group could be a whole lot of fun.  :)   Doing it with one child isn't as fun, doing it with a group of children is more fun, doing it as a planned party at Kids Club?   That would be a total hoot, even my boy thinks so.  :)   Since it comes with a list of ways you can use it, it makes it really easy to implement as well. It contains  ideas for snacks and games, comprehension questions, tips for telling the bible story, print-outs to decorate your church’s space and coloring sheets.  As well as containing posters and invitations for having your own Egglo themed Easter program. 

Picture
Issue of Concern:
  • A couple of the scrolls came apart.
  • The book is a long read when you have excitable younglings listening.
  • the eggs don't glow well unless you have them under the right light for charging (I found bright sunlight worked best).  But this gave me the chance to reinforce to my son how we needed to exposed to the best light as well (Christ) if we are to work to our full potential as well.
  • Another reviewer commented and I think it's so true.... shape these, or create a new product, that is in a different shape for use throughout the year.   Don't just limit it to Easter!  :)
  • shipping to Canada is not noted on the website, but is possible by direct contact to make arrangements.  
Egglo Review
My Final Thoughts?
Would I recommend you get Egglo Entertainment products for your household and/or church?

Yes.  It's a novel idea, that works hard at helping children truly understand what Easter is all about.    Children are very much pointed to the cross of Christ and that is what counts.
