Batiste Try it Dry Review

Image
Shampoo for the busy house! Busy house totally explains my house. We are always running somewhere. I have a cheerleader, a football player and we are youth leaders at our church. You can imagine with 6 kids there is never down time. Baby Magic carries a no wash baby wash but did not know there was such a thing for adults until I saw Batiste. They don't only have 1 kind either. Batiste has a few different scents and some for specific hair colors. Try it Dry works for quick washes on long hair also. My girls have long and thick hair yet it cleans as easy and nice as the boys shorter hair. Just put in hands and rub in. No water needed! Great for cheer hair! I fully recommend this product! Summers are full of events, outdoor activities and long weekends. Batiste is a quick and convenient way to give your hair the boost it needs! Batiste banishes oily roots and revitalizes greasy, dull & lifeless hair between washes, without water. Most dry shampoos are made with corn st...

Reading Kingdom Review

Image
Reading Kingdom is an award-winning online program that teaches children 4-10 to read and write to a 3rd grade level. The program is based on the work of Dr. Marion Blank from Columbia University, one of the world's top experts on reading and language development. It uses her patented and research based "6-SIM" (Six Skill Integrated Method) technique that yields incredible results. When you long into their website you can get a free 30 day trial of their program. http://www.readingkingdom.com/ If you have a child who struggles in reading and learning to read then this is a great program for you! We kept our 6 year old back in Kindergarten this year because of his struggles. I am hoping to have him work on Reading Kingdom along with his school work this year and hoping this gets him on his level. Most kids can navigate this site all on their own. Your child being able to navigate these type programs on their own is a plus. It isn't always easy for you as a pare...

Simple Cups Review

Image
I love these new simple cups! They are like their name, simple to use. These are much cleaner to use than the single K cup reuseable filter Keurig puts out for using your own coffee. These simple cups also have a great taste to them. So simple and great flavor you can't beat that! You do not have to go to the trouble of interchanging the current holders to use these disposable cups either. Did I mention I love these? I would definitely buy these again. I wish they had of been available when buying the Keurig a couple years ago. www.facebook.com/simplecups www.pinterest.com/simplecups www.simplecupscoffee.com .Single cup brewers are all the rage. They’re easy, convenient and simple. They can also be a huge strain on the wallet. When you purchase K-Cups you could easily be spending up to $50.00 a pound on coffee. That’s hundreds of dollars a year that could be in your pocket instead of in your cup. Simple Cups has developed a way to save money without sacrificing...

SnoozeShade for Carseats and Strollers Review

Image
This is such a wonderful product for moms on the go. Or family is constantly on the move. We have 6 kids so there are field trips, vacations, family outings and even just the normal picnic. Our oldest daughter loves to just grab up the baby and take a walk in the evenings to get in her exercise for sports. The baby loves being put in the stroller for that but I hate the mosquitos and bugs that swarm around the stroller. With this shade it not only blocks those terrible UV rays it blocks the bugs also. The award-winning sleep and sun shade for all single strollers and joggers Gives baby privacy to nap and shades from the bright sun Protects baby from 98.5% of the sun's harsh UV rays (maximum sun protection of UPF50+) Do you hate when people have this need to touch all over your child? I HATE that! This is a great way to curb this. Also when my older kids were little we used to have to throw a blanket over the carseat or stroller to make sure that the sun was out of their...

Therapearl Children's Pals Review

Image
Pals won a “Parent Tested-Parent Approved” Award for quality and appeal. An independent lab has verified there are no heavy metals, VOCs or BPAs. They’re safe, hypoallergenic, reusable, and won’t drip or leak. You’ll feel good about using them, and so will your kids. Just chill a Pal in the fridge or freezer, or pop it in the microwave. Apply the cold or heat for up to 20 minutes. This is the cutest little "ice pack" around. They have pig, frog, puppy and panda to choose from. The little beads inside are made so that you can use both hot or cold. That is neat especially when with kids you don't always need cold. The pig one that we got to test is super cute! All the girls in the house love it. Today the baby got hurt and so it was unfortunately perfect time to test the piggy. She took hold of the pal and even had it in her mouth which probably felt good on her gums since she is teething. The plastic on the outside of these pals is heavy duty. I don't think...

Nuby Flower Power Snack Keeper Review

Image
For ages 12 months plus No more messy snacks! Our unique Snack Keeper™ cup keeps kid-sized snacks inside the container instead of on the floor or car seat. The soft silicone flaps make it easy to grab snacks without spilling. Nûby™ feeding accessories are made to withstand the challenges of daily use and retain their bright color. These are totally great products! I wish they had of had these when my older kids were toddlers. We used to have cheerios and fruit loops all over. We would put their snacks in a bowl and the bowl would be carried in the living room or just knocked over on the table. When we would go in the van we had to feed the snacks to the kids one by one. Has anyone ever felt like their arm was coming out the socket from trying to reach the other side of a car seat? Well mine has and I am thrilled to find a product I can hand the baby in the van and she can eat from it on her own. This is also great for the older kids up to age 6. Just throw some teddy grahams or m...
