Boogie Wipes Giveaway and Review

It's so sad, but my Kiwi has the worst cold ever. I swear it seems like every time I turn around, she has another bug. Ughhh! My nieces and nephews' noses are running like faucets lately as well. YIKES, big YIKES. I thought to myself, what in the world could help them? The regular Kleenex after awhile just turns their noses red no matter how soft they are. Well, I found the best thing for their noses. I bet you are wondering exactly what it is. I found Boogie Wipes. Ahhhh, a parent's best friend for those pesky boogies.



I was lucky to do a review of Boogie Wipes, and let's just say I am super glad to have done one. It not could have come at a more perfect time. I love the Boogie Wipes with minty vapors because I do not have to rub that slime all over my daughter's chest. I just wiped her nose with it, and she started to breathe better. I am glad she wasn't annoyed by it either. The wipes are super soft and smooth on the skin. They also offer a variety of scents.



The other Boogie Wipes scents are great if your child is suffering from allergies, and you do not want them sniffing menthol. They have a grape scent and fresh scent available in a 30 count pack, or they have boxes with 10 individual packages that can easily slide in a purse or wallet. I love the single ones personally because they are so small I can just put it in my pocket for when we are out shopping.

So do you want to try out Boogie Wipes for your little one's nose? Please enter today for your chance to win one 30 count fresh scent and one 30 count grape scent.

Chalkydoodles Giveaway

How many of you parents out there have a teenager at home? I have the perfect product for them to keep you posted on what tasks they need done! I also found a product that allows their creativity to shine. I was excited to review the Chalkypalooza TEENS Teen wall sign. I currently use this product to create environmentally friendly notes to my husband. Instead of constantly wasting paper to leave notes. I used the Chalkypalooza TEENS Teen wall sign to leave him this quick info.



I never thought that a chalkboard could look so pretty. I love that the Chalkypalooza TEENS Teen wall sign is big enough to hold a lot of notes. This product will come in handy for when we have babysitters as well. It is great to have that posted up with all contact information for the babysitter to glance at if needed. I am looking for the right place to put it. It will either be in my kitchen or I might get my sister to do some magic art work on it and hang it in the Kiwi's Room. I am not that artistic so I need her assistance lol. I love that I can get her to make new art each month.



I must let you know that any Chalkydoodles products are not to be used by anyone under the age of 13 years of age. This product is geared towards teens but mothers I wanted to let you know it's also great for you to use. If you have your own business I would find this fun and creative to make a banner to attach to the table. It has the ties on it so it makes it easy to hang on the wall, table and other possibilities. Also if you are the winner of the Chalkypalooza giveaway you must season your banner before use. Included with the giveaway is a card that goes over what you should do before use. Please check out all of the other great products featured in Chalkydoodles shop.

Bumbo Potty Seat

As many of you know potty training can be quite tricky. Well at least for me it has. I tried so many products and for some odd reason the kiwi wanted nothing to do with the toilet. I bought a toilet seat cover that just sat on the top, it was one of those toilet seats that had no support. I kept thinking of ways to get her to understand it is ok and it is safe to use the potty. The trying was not working until one day.

THANK YOU BUMBO!!!!!! I had the chance to review a Bumbo Potty Seat and my gosh that was the biggest life saver ever. It fully supported her and she felt truly safe. I love how it contours the tushie so she feels comfortable and the material is really soft on the skin. I sat with her and started to read a book and I guess she was not nervous sitting on it because she immediately used the potty. SERIOUSLY I thought this is all I needed? I suppose so.

The next day she woke up no potty in the diaper and she sat on the Bumbo Potty Seat and again immediately went potty. WOOOHOOO I praised her so much! My challenge wasn't getting her to understand she had to go but it was her giving me a challenge to figure out why she did not like the typical potty seat. I guess she know quality when she sits down lol. I am glad my daughter used this product because she is picking up faster with the potty training than I had expected.

A bit of advice for all of the parents out there PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do not freak out when your child wants nothing to do with the potty try the Bumbo Potty Seat and I bet they will love potty time just as much as the Kiwi. I will keep everyone posted on the success and the trying days of potty training.

So calling all parents ADVICE is super great right now getting through this tough stage! I hope you all give the Bumbo Potty Seat a whirl and I am looking forward to all the comments!!!!!

P.S. PARENTS PLEASE CHECK OUT ALL THE GREAT BUMBO PRODUCTS AVAILABLE FOR YOUR LITTLE ONES!!!

Sikulu & Harambe Book

Hey parents out there so I wanted to let you know about a fabulous book I came across. The name of it is Sikulu and Harambe. This book helps to teach your children about helping and what can happen if you do not help. The book is considered the African version of the Good Samaritan story.





In the book Sikulu and Harambe they have many languages featured in it. Also the book gives you the proper way to enunciate the words. I love that they do that because, then I am not saying the words wrong. I like how the artist Bruce McCorkindale created fun whimsy animals and my kiwi loved looking at them as well. My daughter has become a big helper since we read this because I told her that helping makes it easier for others. She now loves helping me with small easy tasks she can complete.





I would suggest the book Sikulu and Harambe to any parent trying to teach their children how helping can change the world. In Sikulu and Harambe I have learned that one small act can make a big difference. So if you want to make a difference in your child's life, buy this book with great morals for them to learn. Head over to Sikulu and Harambe to get your copy today!
