Shopping can get a little tedious when youare taking little ones into the stores with you. Usually when I go shopping Ido it during snack time. This way I can pack a snack and a juice and hope thatis enough to keep my children occupied for a quick trip to the store.Unfortunately, more often than not when the snacks are done so is the shoppingtrip.
Needless to say, I am always looking for waysto keep the kiddos entertained while shopping. They are always ready for anadventure and as a result I have tried to make our shopping trips moreinteractive and fun for them. Sometimes we go on a treasure hunt for aparticular product {usually the last item that makes it in the shopping cart}and other times we play letter games throughout the store. With release of TheAvengers movie my entire family has been very interested in costumes and superheroes.
While both of my boys love capes and helmetsand super heroes, my husband and I are the true geeks of the family. We are allabout gizmos and gadgets and love our Apps. We were both into comics when wewere younger and love Marvel! We have seen Thor, Iron Man, The Hulk, andCaptain America and loved them all! Since we missed seeing The Avengers intheaters I knew that it was a movie that we needed to purchase and when I sawon iTunes that there was an app for that I was quick to download it.
While the movie The Avengers would make agreat date night for my husband and me, the Avengers Augmented Reality App wasreally a treat for the kids and I to enjoy. Earlier this week I took myyoungest with me on a special shopping trip to pick up The Avengers Blue-Ray/DVD/GraphicNovel combo pack {because we love out comics} and dinner for a date night andwe took our Avengers Augmented Reality App on a test drive.
We had ourselves a little #MarvelAvengersWMTAdventure. While shopping wewere on the lookout for all things Avengers. We looked everywhere for TheAvengers products and were quick to check nearby for an Avengers poster tointeract with for the app. It was an interactive treasure hunt that my son andI enjoyed it immensely.
We did not have too difficult of a timelocating some trigger points. The trigger points in the toy aisle and the DVDsection were easy to locate and we had a great time bringing the posters tolife. While I liked taking the quiz to find out which character I would be, myson really got a kick out of taking pictures with the Hulk! Having this app toplay with definitely brought our shopping experience to a whole new level. Itkept my son entertained during the less interesting aisles. It also made methat much more excited about seeing the movie.

Once home, the boys and I got to work ongetting everything ready for The Avengers date night. We cooked our MarketSidepizza and baked our brownies and even pulled out some of dads old comic booksto look through. We had the Blue-Ray/DVD/Graphic Novel combo pack all opened upand ready to go for when dad got home. Then we spent some more time paying withthe Avengers App and posing for pictures.
After we put the kids down for the night myhusband and I enjoyed a fun night watching The Avengers movie, eating brownies,and flipping through comics. My husband and I both enjoy Marvel comics as wellas the movies based off of the Marvel comics and we really enjoyed our datenight.
My boys are little, but they too seem to bedeveloping a fondness for the superheroes! Do you or your children love TheAvengers too?
