Review: Bright Starts Pretty in Pink Pull & Play Pig

I already fell in love with the Bright Starts brand when we reviewed the Grab & Stack Blocks! We just got to review the Pretty in Pink Pull & Play Pig and my baby girl LOVES it!

This pig looks like a simple toy, but it does several things that keep her engaged and entertained. There are several different textures, crinkle ears, and she just loves how the pig wiggles when you pull it's tail! The Pretty in Pink Pull & Play Pig does much more than just an average stuffed animal, & that's why I love it!

Pull this adorable pig’s tail to feel her wiggle & jiggle! This plush pig will delight baby as she wiggles with multiple textures including crinkle ears for tons of travel fun. A portion of the proceeds from this item supports breast cancer charities.

BUY IT:

You can purchase Grab & Stack Blocks from Target, Walmart, Amazon and Buy Buy Baby!

Review & Giveaway: Princess Mega Magnaforms from Peter Pauper Press

I love toys that make my kids actually use their imagination. I'm not a fan of loud, busy toys that do all the "work". I just came across this great site that has a lot of great products that promote imagination, Peter Pauper Press! I've already tried out their paper doll playsets, and we just had the chance to try out their magnetic games.

I'm just as impressed with the magnetic games! We got the Princess Mega Mangnaforms and my kids had a great time with it! There are tons of activities within this book; tangrams, sudoku, and many imaginative play scenes. This book was super cute!

Peter Pauper Press has tons of Safari Adventure magnetic playset for the boys!

Little princesses will enjoy engaging in royal pastimes with magnetic sudoku, tangrams, and other games, and living the privileged life with imaginative play scenes. Eighteen games and scenes packed with fun overlie the magnetic foldover back cover, providing creative play at home or on the go. Zip bag stores over 100 shaped magnets.

Review & Giveaway:Tommee Tippee Explora Cups

We've been on the hunt for a kid's cup that is REALLY leak proof. They all claim to be, but I've yet to find one that actually is. My kids toss their cups around all over the house and car & I'm always finding little stains on the couch, carpet, and carseats from what has leaked out of their cups. It drives me nuts!

Thankfully, I finally found Explora Truly Spill Proof drink cups by Tomme Tippe! These cups are SUPER cute and the best part is they are REALLY leak proof! I have tried to get the cups to leak and they won't! No more stains from leaking cups makes me a happy mama!

Unlike other valve systems our active sensor valve is designed by a physicist to be both so sensitive that liquid flows on demand, yet truly spill and leak proof!

• 2 x 11floz/ 325ml cups

Review & Giveaway: Rock 'N Learn Nursery Ryhmes

We just got the chance to review yet another Rock 'N Learn DVD! I really love the entire line of Rock 'N Learn products. I feel a little bit better when my kids watch TV if there watching Rock 'N Learn! They love to watch TV, and beg for the Rock 'N Learn DVDs!

These nursery rhymes programs put a new spin on the classics to make favorite rhymes come alive. Brother and Sister Goose join Mother Goose to present 43 rhymes using upbeat, pop-style music sung to traditional and new melodies. The playful geese lead kids through each rhyme, teaching them about being safe, using manners, and accepting responsibility.

Rock 'N Learn began as an idea that would help children learn by putting educational material to music with a current sound -- the kind of music that kids enjoy and find motivating. Now with over 50 products, we have sold millions of audio/book and video programs to teachers and parents throughout the United States, Canada, and other countries. Rock 'N Learn programs help students learn math, phonics, reading, early childhood, social studies, Spanish, test-taking strategies, writing, and science. Our DVDs incorporate music with exciting, colorful imagery.

Review & Giveaway: BluApple

We eat a lot of produce in our house. I enjoy having healthy options in the house and providing my kids healthy snacks. But produce can go bad SO quickly and I really HATE throwing away uneaten food just because it's spoiled.

So, I'm super happy I found BluApple! BluApple works by absorbing ethylene gas, so it slows down ripening and spoiling. I've definitely found that our produce has been lasting longer! The tiny little BluApple has already saved us money!

Ethylene gas is given off naturally by fruits and vegetables as a signaling mechanism in order to coordinate uniform ripening. However, once concentrated in your refrigerator or other storage areas, the presence of ethylene gas continues to speed up ripening and hasten spoilage.

The BluApple is designed to provide effective ethylene gas absorption for three months in a typical home refrigerator produce bin or storage container. The active ingredient does not "wear out", but continues to absorb ethylene until it has reached its capacity. A One Year Refill Kit rounds out the BluApple ethylene gas management product line, allowing consumers to reuse BluApples and not add them to landfills.

The BluApple products can be found here.

Review & Giveaway: Rock 'N Learn Colors, Shapes & Counting

Rock 'N Learn has made me a happy mama once again! Our family is already familiar with Rock 'N Learn products, so my kids were excited when another fun Rock 'N Learn DVD came in the mail!

This time they got to experience Colors, Shapes & Counting. They loved it, of course! Colors, Shapes & Counting is the perfect way to get your child ready for starting school. Preschoolers will love all of the kindergarten readiness activities, including learning to count objects by color and shape. I loved this DVD because it taught my two-year-old his colors, but taught more advanced colors (such as maroon) to my three-year-old; they were both able to get something out of it!

Rock 'N Learn began as an idea that would help children learn by putting educational material to music with a current sound -- the kind of music that kids enjoy and find motivating. Now with over 50 products, we have sold millions of audio/book and video programs to teachers and parents throughout the United States, Canada, and other countries.

Review & Giveaway: Tea Children's Clothing

I'm always on the hunt for adorable kids clothes! I'm not a fan of cartoon characters all over their clothes. I think they're just absolutely precious when they're dressed up like little adults. I just found this great company, Tea! They have just my exact taste in kids clothes!

Tea has a great selection of girl's clothing, boys clothing, baby clothing, and even women's clothing! I love all the Tea clothing items we have. They're a VERY high quality. I don't have to worry about them getting rips or tears when my boys play rough, and I just can't get over how cute they are!

We design distinctive apparel inspired by the beauty we discover in our travels around the world. From the iconic art and architecture of Barcelona to the graphic boldness of Brazilian street graffiti, we interpret our discoveries into beautiful, modern and consummately wearable children's clothing for ages 0-12. We launched our women's collection in the fall of 2010 in that same spirit. Chic, flattering globally-inspired styles to live and love in.

Review & Giveaway: The Nutcracker Ballet Paper Doll Playset from Peter Pauper Press

I love toys that make my kids actually use their imagination. I'm not a fan of loud, busy toys that do all the "work". I just came across this great site that has a lot of great products that promote imagination, Peter Pauper Press! I'm super impressed with the quality of our The Nutcracker Ballet paper doll play set.

Peter Pauper Press has tons of paper doll playsets. These playsets have fold out scenes with pop-out features. They also have Scratch & Sketch books, Bedtime Shadow books, magnetic games, and other specialty books.

The classic story of the Nutcracker comes to life with this book, theater, and paper doll play set. Read along in the storybook as your paper doll characters (more than 35 of them!) dance their way through three different foldout stages-- Clara's living room, the Enchanted Forest, and the Land of Sweets. Place the dolls and storybook in the handy storage envelopes for safekeeping until the next performance!

Review & Giveaway: The 411 on Life Skills book

I recently came across The 411 on Life Skills book by Michele Sfakianos, RN, BSN. This is a great book that has tons of information such as how to do your laundry, car buying basics, general home repairs, and things you need to know when purchasing a home or renting an apartment. The author, Michele Sfakianos, RN, BSN is a Life Skills Expert, a Registered Nurse and a mother, so in my book, she is very qualified to give great advice!

The 411 on Life Skills would be a great gift to every high school graduate heading off to college, or even to a newlywed! There is a wealth of information to be had in The 411 on Life Skills.

This is a book about the basic life skills that are not always taught in school or at home. Those basic life skill needed by adults of all ages for everyday living. Did you ever wonder when you were getting ready to leave home for the first time, if your parents had taught you everything you needed to know to survive on your own? Or, were you in a long term relationship and now find yourself single and don't know where to start? Do you know how to do laundry; clean a home; balance a checkbook or cook a meal? Are you aware of the different types of deposits required to either rent or buy a home? If the answers were "yes" — good for the role models that you had! Thank them every chance you get! If the answers were "no" to most of these questions — don't be discouraged — there is help on the way! It is my hope that this book will help those who need it and will be shared with others who can benefit from it. This is not a "be all, end all" book and it is not intended to replace knowledge received from professionals trained in certain areas. As a Registered Nurse, Life Skills Expert and a mother, I want to be able to help out the young adults of today and the next generation to come.
