Hudson Threads Review, Give-away & 30% Off Discount Code!!! {Give-Away Ended}

I was recently asked to pick out an outfit from Hudson Threads to review. I enjoyed looking through the hip, stylish dresses they carry, and decided on the Dara dress for my niece! Hudson Threads is a New York based company that specializes in tween clothing. They have fun styles that girls will love, and a lot of their outfits give you a cool, retro 60’s vibe!

The Dara dress is cute with a funky pattern of fuchsia, black and gray. I love the added rouching trim around the neck and bottom of the dress. It is casual enough for school or church but dressy enough for a wedding, or party! My niece loved the colors and style and said it was very comfortable to wear. Your trendy tweens will love Hudson Threads and all the cute dresses they have to offer!

Plow & Hearth, Solid Steel Fireplace Crest Tool Set with Wrought Iron Hearth Stand and $50 Gift Certificate Give-Away!!! {Give-Away Ended}

One thing I knew had to be in our house when we built it, was a woodburning fireplace. I love the coziness a roaring fire brings to a Fall or Winter evening. We needed a new set of fireplace tools, so when Plow & Hearth asked me to review something, I knew what I wanted. They have such a great selection of fireplace tools and accessories it is hard to choose. I finally picked the solid steel fireplace crest tool set with wrought iron hearth stand in black. It arrived the other day, and we could not wait to try it out. Nothing to put together so you do not have to worry about handles that screw off or become loose. Everything was ready right out of the box. My husband loves it, it is super quality and looks great on our hearth. Best of all the tools are very comfortable in your hand and work well. The log tongs are great for repositioning or to use when putting in a new log. The poker is super solid and the shovel and broom make cleaning up a breeze. I love the stand itself with the ball finial on top. This tool set is available in copper or black and makes a great gift.

I am thrilled to let you know that Plow & Hearth is sponsoring a give-away on Mommy Ramblings. One lucky blog reader will win a $50 Gift Certificate to Plow & Hearth. Thank you Plow & Hearth for the review tool set and for sponsoring this great give-away on Mommy Ramblings. Open to US Residents.

Betty Lukens, Learning Fun with Felt Review & Give-Away!!! {Give-Away Ended}

I remember as a child seeing high quality felt sets on pre-school shows like Romper Room, and teachers using them in the classroom. They were always a favorite of mine. They were so hard to find, and I remember the kind of felt sets that were available at major retailers had much to be desired. Most of the time they consisted of a tiny paper thin board with a piece of green felt on it and some felt shapes in different colors. When I connected with Betty Lukens, and saw the felt sets they sell, I wanted them all. She asked me to pick some products to review and I chose The Four Seasons, Fun on the Farm and Carville. It was so hard to pick because they have such a wide selection of great play sets. When they arrived, I was even more impressed. They are so well made, the playsets come in a plastic tote that will hold the board and all the pieces for easy transport and storage. I really like that I can teach my kids with these playsets and they can play themselves as well. It is a great, quiet activity that stimulates little minds and is perfect for travel, eating out or just winding down at the end of the day. These sets allow your child to be the storyteller and be creative or Mom and Dad can tell the stories. There are so many ways to use these playsets, and they would be great for teachers and in the classroom. The Carville mat is so much fun and can be used indoors and out. It is even machine washable, so let the kids have a great time.

I have terrific news, Betty Lukens is sponsoring a give-away on Mommy Ramblings. One very lucky blog reader will win their choice of 3 Learning Fun with Felt Sets. Thank you Betty Lukens for the review products and for sponsoring this awesome give-away!!! Open to US and Canadian Residents!!!

Organized Living, Big Mesh Sports Basket Review & Give-Away!!!

Having five kids, four of which are boys and add in my husband, we have a lot of balls in the house. Okay, get your minds out of the gutter!!! I am talking about sports balls!!! We have more basketballs, soccer balls, playground balls, footballs, volleyballs and baseballs than I could ever count. I told you how we are trying to get our garage more organized, so when I was asked to pick a product to review from Organized Living, it was the Big Mesh Sports Basket, without a doubt. This great basket is configured with hooks that attach directly to the Grid (SKU 4696425041) or mount direct on the wall. Soft sides are super strong to hold pool equipment, toys, tools, and more. The basket is huge and extra deep to hold large balls, and so much more. The basket dimensions are 30W x 26H x 18D. My husband put this up in our garage right into the studs and it is so strong. He wanted me to put both little ones in it to take a picture to show you just how strong it was. This basket is not going anywhere even if the kids want to slam dunk the balls, when they put them away. It is really great to have a nice big space up off the floor that can hold balls and other sports equiptment. There is a slit on the front that makes it easy to get the balls in and out. This has definitely been a great addition to our garage and really is helping us get organized.

Big Mesh Sports Basket

Great news for those of you trying to get organized. Organized Living is sponsoring a give-away on Mommy Ramblings. One lucky blog reader will win their own Big Mesh Sports Basket.

Bambo Nature Diapers Review and Give-Away!!! {Give-Away Ended}

Bambo Nature recently sent me a package of their Eco-friendly diapers and I was excited to try them out! I got the maxi size 4. They were a tad big on my 18lb, 8 month old, so the size 3 would have been a better fit for him. Despite the bigger size, they still worked just fine! The size 4 fit very well on my 2-year-old, and worked great! When using disposable diapers, I always had a hard time finding one that would not leak through the night. Bambo Nature diapers stood up great as a nighttime diaper! As long as you change diapers in a reasonable amount of time, just like any other diaper, you shouldn’t have to worry about leaks! For daytime use they work just as good as any diaper, we usually never have a problem then. It is during the night that Bambo Nature excelled for me, having no leaks like we usually do. One cool feature they have, is blue indicator writing on the front that blurs when the diaper is wet, so you know when it is time to change.

In manufacturing, Abena, Bambo Nature’s manufacturer, is environmentally conscious by recycling and using energy saving machines. They don’t use any chemicals in their diapers, and have almost completely reduced all waste during the production process. Being that they have a much lower eco footprint than regular disposables, Bambo Nature diapers are a great alternative to my cloth diapering, when I am in town, or go on vacation. I really liked Bambo Nature diapers, they are well made, and do their job!

I am happy to tell you that Bambo Nature is sponsoring a give-away on Mommy Ramblings!!! Two lucky winners will each get a bag of diapers of their choice. Thank you Bambo Nature for the review diapers and for sponsoring this fantastic give-away! Open to residents of the contiguous 48 US states.

Real Kids Shades Review & Give-Away!!! {Give-Away Ended}

I recently connected with Real Kids Shades and they sent me a few of their sunglasses to review. I know how important it is to protect my childrens’ eyes from the damaging rays of the sun. I am lucky, my kids love to wear sunglasses, but I always worry if the ones I am buying have the right protection for their eyes. With Real Kids Shades, they are comfortable, good-looking and offer the best eye protection. They have so many great styles to fit kids of every age. They are super durable and stay on active kids. The frames were flexible and other styles had an adjustable band to fit even the tiniest heads. They have such a great selection and their sunglasses are so comfortable, you child will not want to take them off.

Real Kids Shades® – the leading innovator in children’s 100% UV eye protection. The idea is simple: Offer affordable, real sunglasses designed just for kids. Not toys and not scaled-down versions of adult shades. Make them comfortable (so kids will wear them), durable (so they stand up to kid life), and good-looking (so they get used.)

Everyone loves sunlight. And everyone now knows that the sun can do real damage, especially to kids. Four of every five parents these days use sunscreen on their kids. But what about their eyes?

The American Academy of Pediatrics says children’s eyes are at increased risk for permanent damage from sunlight until they are at least 10 years old. And yet most children’s sunglasses are sold as toys. Toys are fun, toys are great, but not if they’re expected to protect something as vital as your kids’ eyesight.

100% UV Protection

All Real Kids Shades® offer 100% UV protection, as measured by the strictest American, European and Australian governing bodies. That means they protect your children from harmful UVA and UVB rays. Over exposure to UV rays can lead to more serious eye damage later in life. Our sunglasses are FDA Approved for protecting children’s eyes against dangerous exposure to UVA and UVB rays.

I am happy to let you know that Real Kids Shades is sponsoring a give-away on Mommy Ramblings. One lucky blog reader will win a pair of Real Kids Shades of their choice. Thank you Real Kids Shades for the review sunglasses and for sponsoring such a great give-away on Mommy Ramblings. Open to US and Canadian Residents.

Kidwick Books, “Bad Rats” Book and Audio CD Review & Give-Away!!! {Give-Away Ended}

Bad Rats Cover I was recently sent, “Bad Rats” Book and Audio CD by Eric Drachman, from Kidwick Books. This delightful story brings readers to a school for Bad Rats. The stern Professor Perimeter, starts out explaining to the rats that they are bad, because they follow their heart and not their mind. He goes on to tell them, our minds are neat but our hearts are messy. The Bad Rats are not really bad just more creative then their counterparts, they each dream of being an artist. Professor Perimeter tries to get them to abandon those dreams because they put them in danger. However, in the story Professor Perimeter discovers his own messy heart and sees the rats as exceptional and not bad. A heartwarming story that shows children it is okay to be different. The Audio CD is great to listen to along with reading the story Book is good for ages 4-8.

From the Publisher:

Bad Rats…Not So Bad After All!

In Kidwick Books’ award-winning tradition, Bad Rats manages to make us laugh and pull at our heartstrings with the winning combination of soft expressive illustrations, an inspiring story, beautiful original music which complements the dramatic audio CD, and of course, the touching performances of our little voice actors (as well as our big ones.)

Josiah and his cohorts are not really “bad.” They’re just bad rats – or rather, they are supposedly not rat-like enough. They’ve been sent to the “learning curb” where Professor Perimeter is determined to teach them to be good rats. See, they’re artists, and painting outside the box like that is just not right for a rat. Through the course of the story, these sweet little rats find a way to express themselves through their art, and in doing so, manage to open the professor’s heart again, as he rediscovers the value of creativity.

The companion “Book-on-CD” will transport little readers into Josiah’s world with sound effects and wonderful performances by children and adults. The dramatic storytelling is narrated by the author and features his young nephew, Eli Drachman, among other delightful voices. (Audible page turns help your children follow along as they learn to read.)

Eric Drachman has an MFA in Acting, a B.A. in Psychology and a minor in making kids laugh. Like some of our rats, Eric is known for thinking outside the box. In fact, it is this very out-of-box thinking that has helped him make his mark in the competitive world of children¹s book writing and publishing…and to inspire the most creative of all thinkers—his little readers. Eric currently resides in Los Angeles, California.

Kidwick Books is sponsoring a give-away on Mommy Ramblings. One lucky blog reader will win a copy of “Bad Rats” with Audio CD. Thank you Kidwick Books for the review book and for sponsoring this great give-away!!! Open to US and Canadian Residents.

The Original Flap Happy Hat Review & Give-Away!!! {Give-Away Ended}

I am a huge proponent of keeping children and yourself covered in the sun. My kids have very fair skin and will burn to a crisp in minutes. I am the same way. I have always like Flap Happy Hats because they are so great at covering a child’s tender neck area that tends to get forgotten and burn. The huge brim gives them the ultimate in face protection. I was recently asked to do a review on The Original Flap Happy Hat. I chose the Original Flap Hat, Lobster Squad Print in Microfiber. It is very generously sized and the xx-large fits my 4.5 year old very well and is a bit big on my 2.5 year old. I did not have to fight them to wear this hat at all. The fun print and the comfortable fabric had them not wanting to take it off. My son Ethan played an entire soccer practice wearing this hat. I will definitely be picking up some other colors of this hat because with its 50+ UPF it does a great job protecting my children’s faces, neck and ears. Flap Happy has so many great colors and fabrics it is hard to choose just one anyway.

The Original Flap Happy Hat UPF 50+: Designed to provide excellent sun protection from damaging UV rays. The hat has a large brim to shade the face and the flap covers the ears and neck from the harsh rays of the sun with an elastic band to help fit snuggly around the head. This hat looks terrific when paired with Flap Happy Swimwear or Playwear. Perfect for any outdoor or water activity and practical and good-looking for every day of the year. Your child will love to wear this hat for its comfort. Available in an array of colors and fun prints. Makes a Great Gift.

Flap Happy Hats is sponsoring a give-away on Mommy Ramblings. One lucky blog reader will win a Flap Happy Hat in their choice of style/color and size. Thank you Flap Happy for the great review hat and for sponsoring this great give-away. Open to US and Canadian Residents.
