Fall Into Fluff Giveaway

Fall Into Fluff Giveaway

Leaves are falling, locally produced Apple Cider is in the supermarkets and we’re preparing for winter. What better way to celebrate the change of seasons then with a fluff giveaway?! Welcome to the Fall Fluff Giveaway where one lucky winner will receive some great cloth diaper prizes! Products from companies including The Little Bee Co. Diaper of choice, Balm Baby Cloth Diaper Safe Balm, $20 Gift Code to The Smiling Tree Toy co. and Fresh Wave natural deodorizing products. It’s a really nice package of fluff goodies for one lucky winner!

A little about these companies. The Little Bee Co. is a Mom and Dad run business with products designed in Pennsylvania, ethically made in China. The company participates in “Diaper Drops” and donates cloth diapers to several orphanages and other very deserving areas around the world including right here in the USA! This team has seen first hand the real need for diapers in poverty stricken areas and have made it their mission to help change the world. Read The Little Bee Co. Review and learn more about this wonderful company and organization.

Smiling Tree Handcrafted is a fantastic company operating completely out of Minnesota right here in the USA! Their handmade wooden toys and keepsakes are made from USA sustainable wood and products including everything from teethers, cutting boards, toy blocks and Christmas ornaments can be personalized. In addition to being eco-friendly, a portion of profits from each item goes to the Peace Corps Youth Development Program. Read the full Smiling Tree Toys Review for all the information about this great company.

     To add to this wonderful list of USA based environmentally friendly companies I introduce Balm Baby. Made and developed in the USA in Hawaii (dream job) their products are consciously packaged in non-plastic toxic free containers including glass jars! The ingredients all look like they could just as easily appear on the menu at a high end restaurant and they are committed to using natural ingredients. Since products are hand-made, if you have a sensitivity or other request they can be customized on individual orders. Their cloth safe diaper balm is safe for cloth diapers, baby, the environment and washes easily.
     One concern many cloth diapering parents have is odor. While diaper pails, pre-rinsing and washing frequently are helpful…there can be lingering odor. Fresh Wave products are a new line exclusively carried by Target and help remove odors naturally and they report being safe for kids and pets (but don’t eat them). This package winner will receive the products seen here to help remove odors without toxins from their home! Best for smaller spaces, the odor gel and packets are in my bathroom to help provide freshness right next to our diaper pail.
     Onto the giveaway! Giveaway is open to legal USA residents 18+ void where prohibited and runs from 10/14-11/15/2015. One winner will be drawn randomly by the Gleam tool and entries will be verified. Winner will be contacted via e-mail provided and have 48 hours to respond. If no response is given, a new winner will be selected and contacted. Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day!

Mama’s Experience

I was able to review one of the many lines which Toysmith features: Nightzone Light Up Sports!

Light Up Sports by Toysmith

NightZone is a newly vamped up line from Toysmith. It is packed with toys the small children all the way through adulthood can enjoy. Their sports balls are equip to light up with the simple switch of a button. This makes those late night parties, football games, fall get together’s and everyday play that much more exciting!

Each ball, disk or band has an easy to locate switch so that you can turn the toy on and off at your convenience. The switch is small enough so that you don’t have to worry about accidentally turning it off mid-play.

NightZone Footballs come in 3 colors: Red, Green and Blue. The retail price is $14.95 each.

NightZone Light Up Football

NightZone Spoke Lights are great for any bicycle. For kids playing in their driveway at night to high schooler’s and adult cyclists, these light up spokes make biking more exciting. The retail price is $9.99.

NightZone Flashbands are my daughters favorite item. Unlike glow sticks which only last 1 night, these bands can be used over and over for an exciting light up party in your living room, while camping or at a slumber party. These are the perfect stocking stuffer for kids of all ages. The retail price is 4.99 for a pack (includes 2 bands).

NightZone Light Up Disc has 2 settings, a solid muli-color on option or a flashing lights option! The flashing lights are so much fun and create a cool effect at the disk sours through the sky. The switch is on the back of the disk in the very center, making it practically impossible to accidentally turn off while playing. This is a great item for late nights at the beach or at a fun bonfire. The disk retails for $11.99.

Who is Crane?

Crane was founded in 2005 with the concept that “design is an attitude and the home is a personal expression of an individual’s lifestyle.”Crane Website

Traditionally, when you think of an air purifiers, space heater or humidifiers you think of a plain old square boxy product. Whilst General Air Conditioning & Plumbing suggests using HVAC to condition the temperature of your home, using a humidifier too could create an optimum air environment in your home. Crane breaks out of this mold with their fun, colorful and sophisticated designs. They know that their products are going to be placed in your home and out where you can see them. Why not make it fun and exciting? Help improve the decor of the room, not hold it back. with the Design For Better Living motto they help improve your rooms and your quality of life.

Mama’s Experience

crane train1

My 1.5 year old son is train crazy. I have found this is a very common obsession of little boys as I have found more and more train toys, TV programs and other items. When I found out the Crane sells a Train Cool Mist Humidifier I literally giggled! I was going to make my little boy very, very happy.

When you put anything in your child’s room you are constantly worried about safety and functionality. With Crane, being a leader in the field of humidifiers, I knew that I was putting a well researched and tested product in my child’s room.

water tank crane1

I love that the water tank can easily be filled in most bathroom sinks. That the base has a feature to help prevent mold (this was an issue with my friend’s humidifier and she had to find the best Indoor Air Quality Testing Vallejo had to offer in order to determine where the source of the mold was coming from), and that it has an auto-off function for when the water runs out. Mold is a serious concern for me and I would the to have it in our home. I know that it can seriously affect your health and can even damage the structure of your home so I want to do everything I can to prevent it, otherwise, we may have to use a Mold Remediation Atlanta service to come in and remove any mold and mildew that has formed. There are so many positives to Crane humidifiers what I cannot think of any reason why someone would choose a different brand. The best part about the water tank is the handle for easy lift/removal. My past humidifiers I would loose my grip and occasionally drop, which would be such a bummer and sometimes really messy. With this tank’s handle I don’t worry about dropping it at all.

About I See Me!

I See Me! provides the highest quality, most personalized children’s books available. I See Me! was started by founder Maia Haag and her husband Allan after they received a personalized book as a gift for their first son in 1998. While they loved that it was personalized, they thought that the illustrations could have been much better and the story more customized to the child. Thus I See Me! was born.

Check out their Christmas Collection Here

Their goal was to produce an educational book that would teach young children how to recognize letters and spell their names.

With the 2015 Holiday Season approaching we all need ideas for what to get the children in our life. Books are timeless. They are the most cherished thing in our house. We make point to read several books everyday to our children. The gift of knowledge and confidence through books is priceless. When a child received a book with their very own name inside, there is a special moment in their minds that releases pure joy. To know they are the lead character. They are special. They can do amazing things.

Gift Ideas of 2015

God Loves You!

The celebration of Christmas is, above all else, the celebration of Jesus Christ’s birth. His arrival on earth to save man from our sins, is the main objective I teach my children every holiday season. This Christmas I will be giving my 3 year old daughter a copy of “God Loves Dorothy” to her.

God Loves Me

In this book you you can tell your child just how much God loves them with a beautifully illustrated book. The reason God came to earth was to show us how much He loves us, and this book, as a Christmas gift is the best possible gift to give. I have been suggesting it to all my friends as a perfect Christmas gift for small children this year. Each page has bold and lovely pictures of all of God’s creations. This is the perfect gift for any young child in your life.

God Loves Me Book

My Very Merry Christmas!

My son, Max, will be receiving this special personalized book this Christmas. The book uses beautiful primary colors, perfect for young children. By showing him his name inside the book I know he will get excited. When he hears his name on TV and in movies his little ears perk up and listen closer. By having his name inside a book I will be able to keep his attention and tell him a fun and simple Christmas book.

A Very Merry Christmas Book

In each book that I See Me! creates you can personalize by name and typically include a special messages. The special message could be as simple as I love you, Mom & Dad, or more specific. Some books also allow for a photo of your child to be used! This is a feature which the God Loves Me book offers. My daughter is going to shout with joy when she see’s her very own picture inside of her own book. I cannot express enough how awesome these books truly are.

Beanfield Chips Review

Beanfield Chips Review

Who is Beanfield Snacks?

Beanfield Snacks is a family driven company. They started with the vision to help change the way American’s eat. Their primary goal is to help improve the global food supply by creating delicious, plant based, Non-GMO snacks, with beans as the primary ingredient.

Enjoy 6 grams of fiber, 5 grams of protein, and 4.5 grams of fat in every serving

Beans and the Environment

“Beanfields, uses as many recycled products as possible and we recycle in our office. All of our suppliers have similar programs. However, the biggest thing we do for the environment is using beans as our main ingredient! Here are a few tidbits from the sustainability story of beans:

chart
As you can see from this chart (source – American Pulse Association), beans (also called pulses) are by far the most water-efficient source of protein available.  And they are also far below the 110 gallons of water needed to grow a pound of corn (source – The Water Footprint Network).
Growing beans also uses far less fertilizer than other crops. Beans produce their own nitrogen, using sunlight to power the conversion of the nitrogen in the air into a form plants can use. As a result of these and other benefits, bean crop production lowers agriculture’s greenhouse gas emissions. Beans require half the total energy inputs of other protein-producing crops! (source – American Pulse Association)” – Beanfield Snacks Website

  • Beans are the ONLY food that the USDA lists in two different nutrition categories (protein & vegetable)
  • Beanfields has contributed chips to local nonprofits and community groups all over the US and Canada
  • All of Beanfields Bean and Rice snacks are vegan, not by accident, but on purpose.  Even our Nacho and our Ranch chips do not contain dairy as an ingredient and are perfect for vegan diets.

Why Beanfields Snacks Bean & Rice Chips?

Mama’s Experience

I have never been a huge chip person. I mean, don’t get me wrong. I like to occasionally indulge at parties or events. I just never bought them (this makes my kids and husband very sad). I really like a nice salty crunchy but found it in other ways. I was excited to try Beanfields Snacks chips for a few reasons.

  1. They are better, way way better for you than regular chips (one of the main reasons I don’t buy regular chips).
  2. They have veggies (beans) in them. If I can sneak a vegetable in my kids belly, I will jump on it!
  3. They are a NON-GMO product.

I love salt, so I wanted to the Sea Salt flavor first. MAN! They are so good! I was shocked really. I got the salty crunchy that I desire from a chip but not the guilt or greasy hands that previously followed the chips. They are not heavy on the salt. Its a light salt. My 3 year old wouldn’t eat them, and I think it was because when she has had chips, they are covered in salt. That is what she expects now in a chip. I then offered her a barbecue flavor.  She liked those way better. They too have a light flavor. Not over powering at all. You are still able to taste the natural yumminess of the bean and rice. There are so fun to eat. Each flavor is just as good. They really hold true to their flavor and are not greasy like potato based chips.

Each bag had a unique taste and satisfying flavor that made it excited for my kids. They are so excited that now they get to eat them! I love that I can allow them a handful here and there and not worry about their little bellies being filled with empty carbohydrates. Now they can enjoy chips that are good for them (and don’t leave my walls all shiny with greasy hands). Thank you Beanfields Snacks!

What the husband (chip eater) had to say:
  • Salted – Good. Nice flavor. Good for dipping.
  • Barbecue – Excellent. Very nice BBQ flavor.
  • UnSalted – Not his favorite. Good for dipping.
  • Ranch – Least favorite. Not a deep ranch flavor other corn chips provide. Could use more flavoring.
  • Pico De Gallo – Favorite! Best chip they make. Spicy. Slammed 1/2 a bag in 1 sitting. Loves this chip!
  • Nacho – Good but not what he expected based on other nacho flavored chips. Expected artificial, but this was more of a real cheese flavor.
  • Salt & Pepper – Decent snacking chip. Not too flavorful but not too plain.

Buildex Super Scoot Ride On Review

Buildex Super Scoot Ride On Review

Who is Buildex

Buildex was created with future engineers in mind. These toys are made to be put together without any outside tools. The toys are put together using only the pieces provided and no outside items are required. By engaging your kids mind you help them develope problem solving skills, creative thinking and build self esteem. All of their toys are wooden and they only use non-toxic water paints to highlight the beauty of the wood while also keeping your family safe.

The Super Scoot Ride On Bike

bike box 1

Small, self scoot bikes are very hot right now. I have seen them popping up in my Facebook feeds, at the local toy stores, even on TV shows. I never paid too much attention to them until now. My son is a year and a half and is in total transportation obsession mode. He wants to constantly play with anything with wheels. I love the Buildex Super Scoot for several reasons:

  1. It was super simple to put together (like easy enough to do myself while watching my 1.5 and 3 yr old play outside)
  2. It is made with beautiful wood, keeping a natural, earthy look
  3. The paint is assured to be non-toxic and water based
  4. It is easy for my children to use

bike a

Some of the features of this bike include:

GridLock™ Building System – their patented GridLock™ construction system creates a one of a kind experience, they assemble safely and securely with no need for tools!

Real Suspension – The Grid-Lock™ system creates natural suspension which, in combination with functional steering, make for great challenge, learning and fun!

Safe™-Lock Building System – This new generation of toys encourages children to develop three dimensional thinking and an appreciation for construction, movement and design.

safe_lock

My favorite feature is the Safe-Lock. In order to get the piece attached to one another, they use a pull and snap feature which allows you to smoothly get the pieces together without a screw and screwdriver. When I saw this feature in real life I was amazed at how different and simple the concept was.

My son has a great time playing with his bike. He is too young to really get the concept of bicycle pedals. The coordination involved in petal bike is something he is still developing. Kids bike size is very important. This bike allows him to play bikes with his big sister in a way that he is able to control. This bike really builds confidence in young toddlers. Helping them build the base skills which will help him be able to ride a petal bike later in life.
