Offering a candid opportunity to learn how parents can best tackle potentially dangerous mobile phone behaviors, LG created a unique chance for bloggers to hear from LG Text Ed advisory council members, actress Jane Lynch and best-selling author Rosalind Wiseman.

The ICKEE Stikeez® invasion is here! The squishy, squeezy, sticky, collectible figures known as ICKEE Stikeez from Zing® Toys are now available at select specialty toy stores nationwide.
The first collection of ICKEE Stikeez (#IckeeStikeez) has 24 whimsical, wacky and hilariously disgusting characters. Each of the characters sit on a suction cup that enables the ICKEEZ to stick to any flat surface, such as lockers, lunchboxes, windows and cell phones. When pulled-off, the ICKEEZ make a cool, loud “pop”! Characters come in PODZ that are reminiscent of vending machine capsules, which also have built-in play. Kids can connect them to create various structures and environments for their ICKEE Stikeez characters.
