New CANIDAE® Life Stages, Dog Treats Review and Giveaway!!!

Canidae Logo

We have three dogs; a 3-year-old Maltese, a 3-year-old Westie and a 4-year-old American Bulldog.  They are very much a part of our family and we want the best for them.  For optimal health it’s important to feed dogs healthy foods and treats. I recently had the opportunity to try New CANIDAE® Life Stages Bakery Snacks and Biscuits for dogs with our trio.  We tried two varieties, the Bakery Snacks with turkey, quinoa  & butternut squash which is made with only 7 nutritious ingredients and the Grain Free, Pure Heaven Biscuits with Duck and Chickpeas.  Both are crunchy and help keep dog’s teeth clean, they feature a snap feature that lets you break the biscuit into perfect proportions and as our dogs reaction told us, are delicious!  Resealable pouches keep snacks fresh.

Wink Shapewear, Tummy Tucker Tank Review & Giveaway!!!

Wink Logo

Today was finally a real spring day in New York. It felt so good to finally feel warm air and enjoy the songs from the many birds that have recently returned after their winter in the south.  The spring weather also makes me want to get out and walk, ride my bike and garden.  After a long cold winter I am so happy to start shedding the layers.  About 3 weeks ago, I started really stepping up my exercise routine.  I have been doing intense cardio and biking at least 3 days a week and will be adding kettlebell workouts on at least 2 more.  I have lost a few pounds but have a goal of losing 20 more by the end of May.

all free clear Laundry Detergent Pack Review & Giveaway!!!

I have been trying out a new laundry regimen the past week, compliments of all free clear laundry detergent. The makers of all laundry detergent sent me a laundry pack to try out and review. I was sent their new free clear liquid fabric softener and dryer sheets, specifically created for sensitive skin. I also received their new all mighty pacs oxi, for removing tough stains and whitening and brightening the entire wash. To round out the new laundry treatment, they also sent me a jug of their all free clear laundry detergent. all free clear laundry detergent is the #1 recommended detergent brand by dermatologists, allergists and pediatricians for sensitive skin.

One of my quirks is that I actually like doing laundry, I would rather do laundry all day than wash the dishes or floor! So you can understand that I was eager to get started on the mounds of laundry that my family of 4 boys can accumulate, and put these products to the ultimate test! And with a baby in the house, I really appreciated the fact that this is free of perfume and dyes, made for sensitive skin.

All
Here are my results:

It does seem that my laundry came out brighter than before! There was a particular outfit that my baby had an oopsie on before it went into the wash. After looking through his clothes, I cannot find or remember which one had the stain, because none of them have stains anymore! Jeans that went into the wash muddy, came out fresh and clean. All of my clothes came out fluffy, clean and bright. I think I can safely say that my new all free clear laundry regimen went well and passed the test.

I am excited to tell you that Sun Products Corporation is sponsoring a giveaway! One lucky blog reader will win all free clear fabric softener and dryer sheets! Thank you Sun Products Corporation for the review products and for sponsoring  this lovely giveaway!

Choopie CityHooks and CityGrips Stroller Accessories Review & Giveaway!!! 3 Winners!!!

choopie logo

Although spring started about 2 weeks ago, we still haven’t seen it for more than a fleeting day in New York.  With April starting in about 24 hours, I am taking comfort in knowing that it has to arrive sooner or later.  I truly hope it’s sooner because I love to walk in the spring.

If you like to walk and enjoy taking your little ones along in a stroller you have probably found that you just cannot remove the handlebar cover that comes permanently attached to your stroller to wash it.  Considering we are touching it all the time, it’s easy to get soiled, sweaty and worn.  CityGrips are neat little covers to put over the stroller handlebar from Choopie that add function and flair.  CityGrips attach securely with velcro and remove just as easy so you can machine wash and dry them when necessary, that really appeals to the germaphobe in me.

citygrips-single-bar

 

citygrips-double-bar

City Grips are available in great colors, prints and patterns and 2 styles for double or single handlebars.  I found it super easy to attach the black polka dot print which is one of the new designs for 2014, to my Stokke Scoot handlebar.  I like that I can just take them off and throw them in the washer to keep the handlebar much more sanitary.  An added benefit is that it really makes the otherwise black handlebar look sharp and stylish.

Another important accessory that I must have, is some type of hook or hooks so that I can attach bags, diaper bags, my purse and more easily to my stroller.  Choopie has great hooks called CityHooks and they attach quickly, easily and securely to the handlebar of any stroller, wheelchair, car seat and more with snug fitting velcro straps.  The hooks swivel a full 350 degrees and the open hook design make it easy to slip bags on and off.  I love that with these hooks we are ready for all the little extras we need to tote on outings and they’re perfect for shopping to hold bags.

tommee tippee boy wb

“Mommy I accidentally spilled my cup of (insert beverage of choice) all over (insert object or objects of choice).”  That sentence strikes fear in me and I know I’m not alone.  With laptops, iPads, Kindles and smartphones all around our home it can also be an extremely expensive problem as well.

My preschooler has a tendency to spill drinks a lot and while I do not want him to have to feel like a baby drinking from a sippy cup, the fact is he is messy, messy, messy!

Tommee Tippee had the answer in their Explora Special Edition, 3 Ring Circus, 12 oz. Water Bottle.  These manageable cups are great for little hands to grip and their no spill features is great for my little mess maker.    Great when he wants to keep a cup of water by his bed and perfect for travel.  Now even if they get knocked over, dropped or tossed there are no messy spills to clean.

With great Special Edition designs for boys and girls, it’s easy to pick the perfect pack for any child.  The Water Bottle is intuitively designed for guaranteed easier drinking and more natural transitions, their Advance-Flo Technology ensures that the truly spill-proof water bottle is truly spill-proof, leak proof and easy to drink from.

Girl Tommee Tippee

 

Unlike other valve systems, Tommee Tippee’s  Active Sensor valve was designed by a physicist to be sensitive that liquid flows on demand, yet truly spill and leak proof. Water bottles are  BPA Free and are sold in are sold in sets of 2, available at Toys R Us and Babies R Us stores nationwide.  Best of all it puts an end to, “Mommy I just spilled…”

Lakeshore, 3-Way Tabletop Easel Review & Giveaway To Celebrate National Crafts Month!!!

Lakeshore Logo

March is National Crafts Month and we love crafts all year in our family so we really thing giving them some recognition is so cool.  My children are all very creative and artistic and so you will find tons of craft supplies, markers, colored pencils, paints, chalks, paper and much more in our home.  My little ones really love to draw and so since they are so close in age and want to do everything together. The 3-Way Tabletop Easel from Lakeshore was the perfect choice for a great art center where they can paint, color and create their own masterpieces  together!

Lakeshore Easel

Right out of the box this easel is a cinch to get set up and you only need to do a quick 2 screw attachment on the tray with the alyn wrench included.  One side features a high quality chalk board that erases completely.  It is a real pet peeve of mine when chalk boards are hard to erase or do not erase completely without a great deal of elbow grease.

Lakeshore 3 Way Tabletop Easel

The other side is a dry erase white board and there is a tray underneath that extends out so each side has a place to hold paint, markers, chalk and other supplies.

Lakeshore 3 Way Tabletop Easel Pic 2

Two blue clips are included to hold paper.  This easel has been used daily since I opened it.  I like that it is lightweight and portable yet sturdy.  It is so easy to take it out on the deck on a nice day and let the kids paint or color outside and then just bring it back in when they are finished without having to lug something big around.

MK & Company, Tale of the Tooth Fairy Gift Sets Review and Giveaway!!!

Tale of the Tooth Fairy Logo

My six-year-old has just begun losing his teeth.  If this is a familiar scene in your house, you are probably frequented by The Tooth Fairy.  I received a delightful couple of Tale of the Tooth Fairy Gift Sets recently and my youngest who has not lost any teeth and my six-year-old were very intrigued.  The day that I was reviewing them, my son lost a tooth and I could not believe the timing.  We thoroughly got to do the review that day!  The gift sets feature a delightful soft fairy doll in a girl or boy variety, a gorgeous keepsake box that ties with a ribbon and the hardcover book that explains the Tale of the  Tooth Fairy.  You can read the book HERE.

ToothFairy Sets

 

tooth Fairy Gift Set

If you read the book at the link above, you will understand that the Tooth Fairy gives a child the doll so that she can easily find the tooth which the child places in the bag that the doll carries.  Now, she does not need to search high and low to find the children’s teeth and the children have a familiar routine to follow every time they lose a tooth.  We put our son’s tooth in the bag and in the morning the tooth was gone and some spending money was left beside the doll.  My son was very excited and really liked the little stuffed replica Tooth Fairy.  Softer than a box and with more personality then a plain pouch this gift set is adorable.  Our youngest who has claimed the other box set cannot wait to begin using it!
