Nuby Wash and Toss Sippy Cups Review

Image
I am a very frugal mom. I try to buy the most economical choice for what I buy. Sippy cups are no exclusion. There are so many to choose from. When you walk into any store and go to the sippy cup isle it can make you dizzy. There are Disney, Evenflo, Gerber and more. I don't only choose Nuby because I do reviews for them. I choose Nuby due to their being safe for your child. The designs are bright, kids love them and the price is right for any budget. This 3pk came just in time. We are constantly on the go. When we leave and need to take a cup with us, I try to grab the least inexpensive ones so that if we lose it, I'm not going to panic. These are great for that. Each cup and lid can be interchanged. A lot of the lids, I have found, can be use on other cups. We love the bright, lasting colors. Top dishwasher safe. We usually just use hot water and the Nuby bottle brush. The only thing you need to watch is that our daughter is a chewer. It comes with her sensory is

Aquasana Filter Water Bottle

Image
Listen up parents....imagine being able to filter water right inside your very own water bottle wherever you are. Yes, that means a public water fountain, the airport, theme parks that charge an arm and a leg for bottled water and while traveling to other countries where filtered water can cost as much as a meal, etc… Pretty soon you won’t have to imagine that if Aquasana’s Kickstarter Campaign goes well. The water filtration company is in the process of bringing to market a reusable glass water bottle with a filter right inside. Having clean, healthy water at your fingertips for on-the-go hydration is just a matter of months away (if funded.) I think it looks like something we would love to have. Keeping my kids safe from harmful germs is a full time job. This editorial was sent to me to post. I will not be compensated unless the company reaches their goal.

Chew-Choos 'Sweet pea' Silicone Teething Necklace Review

Image
We love all the teething products that we have reviewed so far. This company, so far, has the brightest colors. Babies love to play with things while they are nursing. Whether it be your hair, your lips or your clothes. Babies just like to fiddle. While they are teething, everything goes in the mouth. During this time we were constantly making sure that whatever the kids put in their mouths, that it was safe. These teething necklaces are made of Organic Food-Grade Silicone and Free from BPA, PVC, Phthalates, Cadmium, Lead, Latex or any harmful toxins. This FDA-approved silicone is also hygienic, hypoallergenic and resistant to bacteria. Very safe for your child! If you look close the "beads" have a neat design. It adds to their texture. My little girl has sensory issues. To keep her from getting overwhelmed, we keep "biter" bracelets and necklaces. These keep her calm during church and trips to the grocery store. She loves the bright color of the Chew Cho
