When it comes to kids in sports, we end up purchasing a lot of supplies, equipment and uniforms. Labeling plays an important role in making sure that everything returns home with your little athlete. Kidecals are a fun, creative way to label your belongings.
We recently had the opportunity to sample personalized labels from Kidecals, and they arrived just in time for The Princess’ dance recital.
While traveling, we had lots of opportunities for game time. And rather than spending so much time with technology (i.e. iPads, iPods, movies, etc) we played a few Funny Bones Games.
Funny Bones is part skill, part tradition and totally fun! And, with 30 game challenges, the excitement never ends.
Packing for a 2 week road trip can become quite a chore. In an RV, you a limited amount of cabinet space and hanging space available. For 4 people, that doesn’t give us much room, therefore we needed to make sure we had all the essentials needed for whatever weather we were going to come across. For the kids, I took the time to fold all of their clothes neately and place them in boxes that we had on hand to place into the cabinets. For The Hubster and I, most of our shirts were hung up in the small closet, but our pants were folded and stacked on a shelf. It just so happens that during my packing, I was contacted by the nice people at Downey to sample their new Downy Wrinkle Releaser Plus – a necessity when traveling.
Downy Wrinkle Releaser Plus is really easy to use. All you need to do is spray it on the wrinkled area, stretch out the garment and hang it to dry. The only problem is that if you need to take out wrinkles out quickly, you may need to us a hair dryer or hang the clothes in the sunlight.
Over the weekends when we try to sleep in (a little) the kids love to get sucked into cartoons. Typically I’ll put on the Disney channel because I’m so over them watching other network cartoon channels with all the commercials marketing directly to them. However, when my husband saw the Snackeez infomercial he was sold but was waiting for a trip to Walgreens to pick one up. He was so excited when he came home and saw a product sample on the counter that he grabbed it and ran over to show the kids.
The nice representatives from Snackezz sent us a snack/drink cup to review and the kids were thrilled. Snackeez are the all-in-one snacking solution, perfect for at home or on-the-go. A drink cup and snack bowl in-one, Snackeez holds a full 16-ounce drink and 4-ounces of your favorite snack in a colorful and convenient travel cup complete with lid and straw. The white Snackeez’ bowl fits perfectly into the cup and twists on for a solid seal. It even has a flip-top lid so dirt, bugs, and even germs stay out of snacks when you’re not snacking.
Organic foods are becoming the norm and flooding the market. I was recently introduced to Bonga Foods, who debuted their low sugar chews and raw organic powder at the Natural Products Expo West.
Bonga Foods™ recently introduced its new line of organic raw baobab products at the Natural Products Expo West (NPEW) trade show at the Anaheim Convention Center back in March.
My princess just LOVES getting all decked out with makeup, glitter and nail polish. I like to let her get all dressed up for special occassions like her recitals. However, I have a sneaky suspicion that it isn’t really good for her. Besides, my makeup is for me. Because of my skin allergies and bacteria, I just don’t like to share. Which is why EcoPrincess Organics are perfect for her.
EcoPrincess Organics is a natural line of children’s bath products & play makeup made with certified organic ingredients, free from any harmful chemicals.
With my handsome boy moving into 1st grade and my princess ready for Kindergarten, we’re always practicing numbers, number bonding (adding) and such. Their favorite new toy – NumbersAlive.
We absolutely love games and learning tools, so when I was contacted about sampling a numbers learning system, I just had to give it a try!
A couple of weeks ago we celebrated Teacher Appreciation Week. In our classroom we showered our Kindergarten teacher with flowers, special notes, favorite snacks and treats, but Wall Pops really have great teacher gifts.
We were given the opportunity to sample a couple of Wall Pop products, which are a premier line of peel and stick wall art designed to aid teachers in the classroom.
With one kid in 1st grade, one entering Kindergarten and the littlest having just turned two, it’s been a little tough having the time to focus on reading and writing. My 1st grader is doing an amazing job on his own, excelling in his class, however, my younger son needed a little assistance with his penmanship and the Butter Pencil Grip is doing the trick!
This awesome writing tool was invented by Tina M. Butterfield, MSOT, OTR/L and developed by ARK Thereapeutic. The Butter Pencil Grip was designed specifically for those who are having a hard time writing with their fingers in the proper writing position.
Have you ever been upstairs or in a back room and you hear the dog going nuts or the kids yelling at you and you’re just not sure what’s going on? Typically when my dog is barking up a storm, someone is at the door; however, I may not be available to drop what I’m doing and run to check, if you get my drift. That is where the VTech Audio Video Doorbell comes in handy.
I’ve recently been given the opportunity to sample the VTech Audio Video Doorbell and it has come in handy. This two in one cordless answering system and video doorbell is convenient and an aid in home security.
I love to spoil my kiddos, if you haven’t already noticed. He He. When it comes to my “first born”, I try to make sure she isn’t left out. With this new pet bed from Tall Tails, she’s sure feel comfortable and home anywhere we go.
Our generous friends at Tall Tails sent Minnie a brand new bed to sample. You know, when opening the package, it was like she knew it was for her – stairing at me with a look that said “Mom, I’m waiting!”
