Product Review: Bright Light Pillow

No compensation was received for this post. I received product in order to facilitate a review. Over the weekend, the kids usually have some downtime to relax and unwind and enjoy a few cartoons. Let’s face it, it gives parents a chance to relax get some chores done, or sleep in. With that being said, they do get to see lots of commercials, and tend to find at least 10 items they would like to add to their Christmas list. One of them being the Bright Light Pillow.

Toddler Trails Disclosure
 October is here and Halloween is steadily creeping up on the calendars. And what better way to kick-off the Halloween countdown than to start practicing a new customary Halloween chant, “Trick or treat?  Watch your sweets!”  This fun holiday introduces children to tradition, costumes, candy and not surprisingly, cavities.  Although the experience of trick-or-treating is not worth skipping out on during a growing child’s life, parents need to be aware that the treats children receive can become a dental nightmare after Halloween’s passing.

No compensation was received for this post. I received product in order to facilitate a review.  With the weather changing, I’ve noticed that our skin is chapped and dry.  Unfortunately I’ve noticed this when sitting at the field watching my son play ball, and am unable to do anything about it because I wasn’t prepared.

Family Friendly Halloween Movie Giveaway | @FHEInsiders @DWAnimation

A Halloween tradition The Hubster and I started back when we were dating was passing out candy to the trick-or-treaters while watching a scary horror movie in the dark.  Now that we have little ones, many of the scary movies being shown really aren’t family friendly. As a parent, I want to make sure I select the right shows or movies to share with my youngsters that won’t leave them going to bed scared or waking up with nightmares.
