I must admit that I was eager to try out the customizable FLOR area rug from the get go. Seeing limited offerings in flooring stores while shopping for new carpet and tile had piqued my interest – however since the offerings were so limited, I did not look at the option of customizable area rugs or wall to wall carpeting (piece by piece) as a serious option. Then came FLOR! They have many options and varieties of fabrics and colors.
The Instructions, Packaging and Installation:
The area rug arrived in a simple box , easy to open and contained detailed instructions for installation. There are helpful arrows on the back of each carpet square ’tile’ to assist you with lining them up correctly. A simple small sticky square is placed at the corners where the squares meet (in other words, each carpet tile has a non-skid backing and to connect each square to the next, you place a slightly sticky square at the edge of the carpet tile so that the tile are snuggly situated beside one another and so that the squares stay put!

Casual games are all the rage now, and the kids gaming and educational market are no exception. There is a lot to be said for introducing a child to basic technology skills early and you can certainly do worse than Sabi’s ItzaBitza. The game has an impressive drawing recognition program that makes the experience great for kids that have little or no drawing experience. The game is toted as a great assistant for helping kids learn to read and to stimulate creativity. While our time with the game was limited by the trial copy we were given, we did come away with a good list of pros and cons for the game.
The program is only available for Windows XP and VISTA at this time. Sorry my fellow Mac faithful, but we have been overlooked yet again unless you have a full version of XP/VISTA and can run it on BootCamp. It will run on pretty much any setup and the game is not by any means a system resource hog, so you should have no problem running this game on your home computer.
The graphics are pretty consistent with flash games you see on the web and has a cute aesthetic to it. There is a total of 5 areas that your child can play in within the game with varying levels of difficulty. Starting from Home Sweet Home, you can go Camping, to a Country Farm, go on a Space Adventure and finally traverse a Haunted House.
