This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Republic Wireless for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine. With so much technology surrounding our children these days, I've seen a lot of parents question the appropriate age to get a cell phone to their children. My children are still too young, although my oldest will be entering full time school this year. It did cross my mind to get her a cheap mobile phone and teach her to call me ...

The New Taggies Bedding Collection is a Hoot!
My little girls are getting a room makeover and theme change. When I had my first daughter, I kept the theme neutral in her room because I wasn't sure if I would have more than one child sharing a room. Now my oldest is showing preferences for certain characters and styles, but my little one is still a baby - so I get to choose a style for her! I've thought about various themes, and the two that stuck out the most were butterflies and owls. I've ...
Check out the 2013 Barbie Dream House! #BarbieIsMoving
A few weeks ago my daughter and I had the opportunity to check out the Barbie is Moving tour in Times Square. She received the Barbie VIP treatment, complete with a fashion show, hand painting, and crafts. If she wasn't a fan of Barbie before, she has definitely become one since spending the day learning about and playing with the various assortment of Barbie themed toys, such as MegaBloks, dress designing, and more. After leaving the event, ...
Crocs Keeps Feet Comfy for All Day Back To School Footwear!
When it comes to children's fashion, I look for functional pieces that look great but that are also comfortable. I have to admit, I'm a very simple girl when it comes to fashion. A pair of jeans and a t shirt, complete with a pair of sneakers and I'm out the door. My daughter, on the other hand, will not leave the house if she is not fully accessorized. From a sparkly headband that MUST match her shirt to pretty bracelets - this girl can probably ...
Keep An Eye on Your Child With Dropcam
When my first daughter was born, I had to go back to work when she was only 8 weeks old. Whether you have children or not, you know that an 8 week old is still very vulnerable to a lot of things - their heads are still wobbly, they need constant attention and proper care. If I didn't trust the nanny I hired to care for her, then there was no way that I would have ever left my daughter with her. But as a new mom I still had my doubts about anyone ...
Switch & Go Dinos: Jagger the T Rex (Prize Pack #Giveaway!)
My 4 year old has recently gotten into dinosaurs. It might be the influence of all her male cousins she's been hanging around this summer! She's not ready to ditch the tiara or the princess dress, but there's always room for a dinosaur in her fairy tail adventures. Sometimes we just choose to call them dragons! A few months ago we gifted transforming dinosaurs from the VTech Switch and go product line to my nephew. When my daughter spotted them ...
Back to School with Excedrin! (Enter to win a Prize Pack, TWO winners!)
This year's Back to School season is a very special one for my family. although my little one attended a preschool last year for a couple days a week, this year it feels more "real." She is off to school for longer hours, more days, and we've already started prepping for a change in our routine. I'm a little apprehensive, but at the same time I know she will love it and has been begging to go back to school since her last class in June. It's a ...
