Scrub-A-Dub

Kids get dirty, it’s just a part of life.

So, in the bath they go!

We have an almost two year old and he gets a bath nearly every night, so we use the tub a lot. In fact, we recently had to replace our old tub with a new one from Room to Rooms. We used it so much it had just started to look old and dirty no matter how hard I scrubbed it. We all love the new one and use it more than ever.

Filling up the tub night after night can get to be a lot. A lot of water means a lot of money.

Sometimes, this is money that we simply don’t have. We have been able to scrimp and save where we can, and haven’t quite fallen behind on payments yet, but this could soon happen and we need to be prepared for any eventuality. Ultimately, this means that we need to save in other areas of our life (which is going to be hard to do), or we need to start thinking of ways to improve our financial situation. In fact, our friends have recently told us about how they have decided to Startup Aktien kaufen, or buy startup stocks, because they needed the money and it worked. They now have the finances needed for emergencies, which is why I should think about doing the same too. I better ring her and ask her how she got started.

Whilst this a solution, it’s not ideal. We can’t be losing this much money just from filling up the tub and having a bath every day.

There’s got to be a better way, right?

Yes, there is!!

The BabyDam Bathtub Divider is the perfect solution! This bathtub divider allows you to [easily] section off a portion of your bathtub creating a smaller, safer, and more comfortable space for your little to bathe in.

Instillation is super easy with the BabyDam. Just follow these instructions and you’ll be all set! You can see more clearly the instructions HERE along with an instructions video.

This product is brand new and has only been on the market for 1 year.

Originally designed for European bathtubs, the BabyDam was redesigned and started distribution in February of last year.

The high quality materials that the BabyDam is made with are BPA free and safety tested; it’s eco-friendly!

The BabyDam has been proven to save time, money, water, and energy. As you can see in the photo below, the BabyDam makes it so easy to save. With this example we see that using 100% of the tub uses roughly 30 gallons of water; but using 50% of the tub uses just 15 gallons of water. A clear cut picture of how easy it is to save!

This is seriously the coolest, smartest contraption for kids the bathroom.

I love that I can get right in the tub and clean my child on this level. Reaching and leaning over the the tub can really take a tole on your body, so just having to squat for a short time really makes a difference.

The BabyDam will last much longer and is more beneficial than a baby bath tub. The BabyDam will grow with your child. As they get older you can move the BabyDam further and further away from the faucet; giving them more room to bathe.


I love that the BabyDam is easy to store. The holes on the top give you the option to hang it from a hook; but you can tuck it away very easily because it is so slim. We have it tucked between the shower wall and towel rack – works just great.

There are a lot of sizes, shapes, and textures of bathtubs; the BabyDam is not compatible with all of them. Use this quick and easy guide to decide whether the BabyDam is right for your tub.

You can even click HERE to watch a short video explaining how to determine if your tub is compatible for the BabyDam.

Seriously people, go and check out the BabyDam. This small invention makes such a large difference in more than one aspect – water, energy, heat, money. You will not be disappointed after getting a BabyDam!

Whipped Up Wonderful

logo

Whipped Up Wonderful is a huge player in the bath bomb world. They have been around for about 6 years now and what was once a small business has grown into a booming business with tons of loyal customers. Her success, in my humble opinion, is her creative style and beautifully created products. Starting a bath product business means that you need to get the best quality essentials out there so customers keep coming back for more. Using helpful resources such as a private label purple bath bomb to buy in bulk can help facilitate these needs, and cater to a specific audience.

Being an avid bath bomb user has lead me to have a strong opinion of them. In this Mama’s Tub Time series I try different bath products each month, and I am so excited to share Whipped Up Wonderful with you this month! These bath bombs are beautifully presented, which is a huge part of the experience. They are made with earth friendly ingredients. Even the packaging and wrapping are chosen based on their carbon footprint. Whipped Up Wonderful believes that ingredients should be biodegradable and packaging should make as small an impact on the environment as possible.

With new scents constantly coming out and fun seasonal bombs too (Island Christmas, Candy Cane, Bewitched, Pleasingly Pumpkin…) you will want to sign up for her newsletter and follow her on Etsy

This Mama’s Experience

whipped-up-wonderful-bath-bombs

Visual Appeal: outstanding. Each bomb was very pretty. Some even had additional accents like glitter/shimmer or tiny pieces of the scents foundation (lavender or lemon bits). The size was pretty standard 5 ounces. I don’t like any bombs smaller than 5 ounces, because they tend to be so weak that 2 are required. These are a perfectly standard size.

Fizz Factor: Every bomb that I used from Whipped Up Wonderful had a great fix factor. It melted and fizzes away not too fast but not too long either. It nicely rolled under the water and created the bubbles and fizz you expect from a good bath bomb.

Scent: I found that some of the bombs packed a lot more smell while others were very subtle. I like my bath bombs to really kick in the scent department. The Mermaid Bath Bomb had a great scent and it was noticeable enough to last a long bath time as did the Cotton Candy Bath Bomb. The Lavender Dreams and the Lavender Lemon Bath Bombs were much more subtle. These would be best used with less water if you wanted a stronger scent. If you have a child who is of elementary age, I would suggest these bombs as a pre-bedtime treat (relax them and they are old enough to not out things in their mouth). The Pumpkin Spice was no average pumpkin/fall treat. This was packed with the most amazing scent. I am not the pumpkin obsessed American, but I do love a nice fall treat. This has such a wonderful mix of fall scents in with the pumpkin that I cannot stop thinking about it. I could smell a nutmeg and clove background…it was amazing and I highly suggest it.

Coloring: The coloring of the bombs before use was perfect for each bomb. Each displaying the color that matched the scent and theme. I loved the accents of lavender used and the sparkly effects on the Mermaid Kiss. The sprinkles in the Mrs Claus were a fun decor addition. Some dissolved in the bath, others stayed solid and just floated around in a playful manner. Once the bombs were fully dissolved the coloring of the tub water greatly varied. The Pumpkin Spice had a perfectly orange tint to my bath. The Mermaid Kiss was a soft blueish/purplish hue. The Lavender Dream and Lavender Lemon bombs really didn’t have mush color, and the Mrs Claus left a soft cloudy milky illusion. The Cotton Candy has a soft pink color.

Bubble Bar: The bubble bar was a huge hit with my kids. They loved getting to rub the bar under the running water and creating bubbles by hand. Being a safe product for kids, they were able to play with it without my worrying. The smell of lavender creates a relaxing environment, which is perfect for busy toddlers who need to wind down for bedtime. They keep asking for more “mommy bubble bars”. This may become a new treat on the Fox household.

All in all I really do like the variety that Whipped Up Wonderful offers. I love the look of each bomb – beautiful and exciting. I wish there was more scent in some and coloring in others, but they’re the perfect size and affordable for any budget. Head over to her Etsy site now and order a Pumpkin Spice, you wont be disappointed!

Mama’s Tub Time

MamatheFox is going to feature a fun and exciting bath or spa product each month!

As a mom I don’t get much alone time. Like ever. The time I do get alone is special and actually very cherished to me. I try to take 1 or 2 hours per week to myself. My children don’t sleep much (can I get an amen?!) so trying to take a moment to unwind is very important for my mental health. I know a few people who find things like these CBN Gummies Wholesale really help them feel calm and relaxed, but I’m not sure that they’re really my thing. And that’s the thing about relaxing – what works for one person won’t necessarily work for another. For me, personally, I know I need to turn off my screens, take a breath and remember to enjoy this moment that God has blessed me with. In order for me to fully scale back and turn off my constant running brain, I choose to take a bath. I don’t have a super fancy tub (thought I dream of having one…one day…). But you don’t need a fancy tub to have a spa experience. You only need a fun product or two to change the atmosphere. A bath bomb, some bubbles, a handful of salts can transform your average bathtub into a well-needed getaway. If you are a retailer then you know how easy it is to sell bath bombs. Many small businesses are starting to order wholesale bath bombs to keep prices down and provide more options for customers.

Each month on the right side bar (or bottom of the page for mobile readers) there will be a button with a promoted bath/spa product. This product will be reviewed by MamatheFox and the image will link back to the article. Most of the time there will be special discounts and offers available only to readers of MamatheFox. If you love to relax in the tub, or are looking for a fun way to unwind and indulge in some well deserved ‘me time’, this is going to be the place you want to keep checking back.

1byone Outdoor Sport & Shower Speaker Review

1byone Outdoor Sport & Shower Speaker Review

review

outside speaker1byone makes top of the line electronics for everyday people. Everyone I know loves music. I mean how can you not? Everyone has their genres, bands and melodies that resonate in their soul. In my house we constantly have music playing. We love to listen to the best playlists from sites like Mozaart.com. Its always in the background. In the summertime, my kids and I are outside most of the day. Last year we missed the music we love to listen to. I would try to have it come out of my cell phone but being knee-deep in their pool, working in the garden or by their water table – it was never a cell phone or electronic friendly environment. On top of that, we love going on walks and hikes in the summer and it was always hard to get the music loud enough where everyone could hear it. We went hiking with our friends and they had the soundboks 2 speaker which was just amazing. The sound quality was so clear that I needed to find a speaker like that but was a little smaller and more easily portable. This is what has spawned the emerging trend of devices designed for use in the great outdoors like the outdoor empire radios.

This summer and for now on, I am so excited to have a 1byone Outdoor Sport & Shower Speaker. There are a TON of speakers on the market. I see them online and in stores all the time. But what makes a speaker stand out? What makes you want to buy a particular one? Here are a few reasons why this 1byone speaker is the choice for you.

You Can Use it By Water

This speaker is waterproof and can be used in showers or by bathtubs and pools. Having electronic by water can be a scarey thing. I am constantly scared of electric shock. You should NEVER submerge an electronic in water. However, there are products that can survive some splashing and water condensation – the 1byone Outdoor Speaker is one of them. This speaker can be placed by a shower, tub or pool and can handle some splashing. No more fear of destruction of the device when your kids splash around like you know they are going to do. Looking to lounge in your tub and unwind to some soothing tunes? Planning a romantic getaway with your significant other? Going to the pool this summer? All these situations which you will inevitably incur, you will want a 1byone Speaker.

You Can Use it in Dusty Areas

Do you or someone you know work in a dirty/dusty environment? Construction, warehouses, factories? All these places have dust and other materials flying around. All those foreign objects can harm your technology, including your music speaker. Now you can use a 1byone speaker. No worries about it dying due to exposure to dust.

Smartphone to Bluetooth Capableby a hotub

This 1byone Speaker can hold music that you load onto a TF slot card or can play music off a Smart device using Bluetooth. Most the time I am listening to Pandora or I Heart Radio. Now I can stream my music stations from my phone to the Speaker. This makes it easy to use and gives me to variety and kinds of music I want to hear. If you are going camping and know that you will not have access to cell phone signal you can easily store music to the speaker itself with the TF card slot.

The Bluetooth capabilities makes this great for walks through a forest, or around the park. Take it on picnics, family vacations or to the gym. In fact, this speaker is the perfect size to take to the gym in your tracksuit pocket, meaning you don’t have to worry about storage. The speaker has been trialled by holding it in the gym throughout a workout in womens tracksuits and it proved light, loud and to have a strong battery!

It’s Small and Easy to Store

No one needs large and bulky items to store and carry around. This 1byone Speaker is easy to carry and store! It’s lightweight making it not a burden when its in your purse, diaper bag, camping bag, luggage or in your hall closet. If you are a minimalist, then this is the speaker for you

Long Battery Life

The 1byone Outdoor Speaker can hold up to 7 hours of uninterrupted sound before you need to recharge. The 1400 mAh battery is easy to recharge and holds the perfect amount of playtime you need. You can also keep it plugged in and use it while it charges if you choose it.

Rubber Duckie & Friends Shower Wand

Rubber Duckie & Friends Shower Wand

5

Children love bath time. Splashing, playing, and just relaxing in the water. At some point, we have to introduce the showerhead. It is so high up there. So far away! It’s scary! It can be intimidating at the best of times, let alone when the showerhead starts dripping water without it being turned on. Even I don’t like that sound. Although it’s probably because I know that there is something wrong, and one of the only ways to resolve it would be to contact a local plumber so the problem can get sorted quickly and efficiently. Luckily, this has never happened yet, and I hope it doesn’t start doing it. I never really considered how scary this could be for children until the time came for me to introduce them to the shower. My kids get nervous when the water comes out of the showerhead at the force it does. Although, most of us adults love a powerful showerhead, and will even hire professionals, like Morris Jenkins, to install them for us, for a child the idea of water being sprayed heavily over their face is pretty scary. It’s intimidating to them. This is no longer an issue for us now that we use a Rubber Duckie & Friends Shower Wand.

The Rubber Duckie & Friends Shower Wands come in 5 different designs: Dollie the dolphin, Duckie the duck, Froggie the frog, Hippie the hippo and Rickie the rhino.

Rubber Duckie & Friends™ flow at just 1.5 gpm and are compliant with all EPA-inspired conservation laws. We help parents save water and money! And, our soft soothing spray pattern is gentle enough to rinse infants & toddlers in the tub.

All Rubber Duckie & Friends Shower Wands feature:

  • Hose or 2-way water flow diverter attaches easily to your current shower arm
  • Diverter switches water flow between mom & dad’s shower and Rubber Duckie & Friends™
  • Mount uses suction cups to stick to tub or shower wall
  • Extra-long hose extends to back of any standard tub

**The hose is 6 feet long, which allows for the perfect reach without too much hose slack**

Rubber Duckie & Friends™ are adorable bath wands to bathe infants and toddlers in the tub and also handheld showerheads for older kids. We do both jobs after one simple installation!

Mama’s Experience

There are limited installation instructions with the Shower Wand, however, it is not too difficult to install. Be sure when you unscrew the caps on the hose that you take note of the position of the washers and that they don’t fall out. They are loose. It matters what direction it is installed as to the pressure which the water flows.

Both my kids (ages 1 and 2) are now obsessed with their “hippo shower”(that is what they coined it in our house). Getting clean was always fun in our house, now its just a special treat to take turns holding the shower wand. My kids both take swim lessons and are very confident swimmers, but the shower head always intimidated them. Now, they are thrilled to put it over their heads and help rinse their own hair. I highly recommend the Rubber Duckie & Friends Shower Wands. Its a great birthday gift for any kid. Something fun and different for the child who has everything.

Just make sure that you have something like these glass shower doors installed, or at least a shower curtain, as sometimes you might find that your kids point the shower wand outside the bathtub and you’ll get water everywhere. Most people will have a shower curtain anyway, but it was just a passing thought that I had. Besides that though, these Rubber Duckie & Friends Shower Wands are totally worth it.
