I recently reviewed a few titles from Rock N Learn in this post: Rock N Learn DVDs (Plus you can win a set of your own through that link) and I was impressed with my daughter's reaction to these DVDs. There are no licensed characters that she is use to, but there are fun new characters that introduce kids to various learning exercises. Now, I'm not one to push my daughter to read as soon as she pops out of the womb - being a teacher I'm not sure ...

Natural Insect Repellent Review and Giveaway
While I feel that insect spray is important, I never know which on to pick - so I opt out of using anything. It seems that I am a mosquito magnet. It has happened on more than one occasion where my hubby and I would be sitting outside, and I will end up with a body full of mosquito bites while my husband remains untouched. He claims I have "sweet blood" while I think I'm just allergic to bug bites and he's not. When my little girl came along ...
Appliance Art
I was watching the Food Network a few months ago and noticed decals on one of the chef's refrigerators. I HAD to have one - I have a stainless steal refrigerator, and while I love the sleek look, sometimes I want to add a little flare. During the holiday season, I place fun removable (window) decals on my fridge to dress it up. I had the opportunity to work with Appliance Art and I was ecstatic! My hubby, on the other hand, had other ideas. He ...
Bumbo Seat Cover Review
Everyone around me had a Bumbo seat but I'm not sure why I never purchased one for my daughter. After using it a few times at a friend's house I regretted not getting one, but my daughter was getting older and figured she would not get much more use out of it - so I decided to hold off until the next baby. So, what's so great about the Bumbo? Well, it enables baby to sit upright and interact with family members. It can be used when your ...
Boon Animal Bag Review
I have been a huge fan of Boon Baby products since I had my baby and discovered their fun and innovative line of baby products. For my baby shower, I received the Boon Frog Pod and the Boon Potty Bench. It was only a matter of time before I discovered Boon Grass when I became a Boon Mama. I LOVE their products! I reviewed their latest item, the Boon Animal Bag and I LOVE IT (of course - it's Boon!) My little girl has a stuffed animal ...
The Trendy Butterfly Review
I was recently approached by the people over at The Trendy Butterfly to review their site and their items. After I saw that they had a line of personalized items, including licensed Minnie Mouse t-shirts, I knew I had to work with them! My little girl LOVES all things Minnie Mouse and we are even having a Minnie Mouse celebration for her birthday. I ordered a Minnie T-shirt to get me started and it was shipped out very fast. The quality ...
Beanie Designs Hat Review and Giveaway
Having a little girl means getting to play dress up with some fun accessories. My daughter has been my little fashion diva since the moment she was born with a full head of hair and the need for some serious hair accessories to tame it. Now that she is older (and still has unruly hair) we have a bucket full of hair pins, hair ties, hats, and hair bands. She loves picking out things that match her clothes for the day, and I love that she loves to ...
Back to School with Tiny Prints
Back to school season is upon us and there is nothing like the hustle and bustle of getting supplies and gear ready for a new school year. My hubby and I are both teachers, so back to school affects EVERYONE in our household. There are a few things we do to get ready for back to school in order to get everyone in the family involved. About 2 weeks before school starts, we all wake up early. We start off with waking up a half hour early and ...
