Peter Rabbit Organics Review

Peter Rabbit Organics. They are delicious and nutritious fruit drinks that are made from 100% fruit, are completely natural, and have no added sugar. They are great and healthy snacks for children.

My daughter, Emma, is two years old and she absolutely loves them! We were given a variety pack to test. I put them all into my pantry on a shelf that my daughter can reach and let her get them on her own during snack time. Her favourite flavor is the Pumpkin, Carrot and Apple which I absolutely love because not only is she getting the fruit, but also vegetables in the mix. She calls that flavor the “orange one”.

You can get your own Peter Rabbit Organics from Amazon.com. I highly recommend them to parents looking for easy, nutritious snacks for their children.

How I Got a $100 Exersaucer for $45!

stepnplay

Not too long ago, my husband and I had purchased a Summer Infant 3 Stage Super Seat, but recently, he’s been needing something more interactive. After talking it over, Stephen and I decided that we wanted to go with an exersaucer. When our daughter was younger, the exersaucer really helped her develop her leg muscles enough to help her start walking. She was a torticollis baby and had some gross motor issues that needed to be addressed with physical therapy. Good news is that today, Emma is a happy, healthy two and a half year old, thanks in part to her exersaucer.

Our son, Garrett, is 7 months old right now. He’s an active baby and loves to move as best as he can. Just recently, he’s started to get up on all fours when he’s having his tummy-time. It won’t be long before he starts to crawl! It seems like only yesterday that he was just barely staying awake long enough to eat and now I’m having to beg him to take naps!

We really weren’t sure which exersaucer we wanted, but we knew what features we were looking for. We wanted something interactive that he would be able to grow with. Our local Once Upon a Child store is literally across the street from our apartment, so this afternoon, we headed over to check out their stock. The owner pulled down the Fisher-Price Little Superstar Step N’ Play Piano from the top shelf and we fell in love with it! It has a multitude of toys for Garrett to investigate and play with, PLUS it will grow with each stage of his infancy and toddler years. Once Upon a Child is a second-hand children’s store for those of you who aren’t lucky enough to have one of these in your neighborhood. I consider it to be more upscale than Goodwill or Salvation army because these items aren’t donated. Once Upon a Child buys and sells children’s toys, accessories, and clothing. This exersaucer barely even looks used! It is selling on Amazon for $103.00 right now and the cheapest place that I can find it online is at Target for $85. We got ours for only $45!! That is an amazing savings that I am proud to say we were able to get.

What is the best deal you’ve gotten recently?

Sound Beginnings Prenatal Sound System Review

I’d always se the pictures of the pregnant women with the headphones around their baby bumps, trying desperately to share a bit of the world with their babies before they were born. Mozart, Beethoven, Bach, all of the classical artists and composers. If you’re like me, you’re thinking about Josh Groban, Michael Buble, and moving into some classical bassoon concertos.

Let’s be honest here, ladies, how comfortable is it to stretch a big old pair of headphones over your belly? And alternatively, do you think that the earbud approach makes it any easier? Do you think that the baby can hear very well?

Sound Beginnings

I was given the opportunity to review the Sound Beginnings system and I must say that I am highly impressed! The band is made of a soft, elastic-like material that stretched comfortably over my belly. There are speakers built-in which weren’t obvious to the naked eye, but upon playing the music, you could definitely tell that they were there.

The belt has a built in pocket where the “hardware” is connected. It has an audio-out line that connects into a headphone splitter, allowing you to listen to the music at the same time as our baby. Put the headphone splitter into your MP3 player or CD player and away you go! It was literally just a few minutes from opening the box to listening.

Garrett (my little boy) and I listened for about an hour this morning and I don’t know if he liked it or not, but he certainly did move around. I’ll call it dancing :-)

How to Get Your Own:

You can order your own Sound Beginnings system directly on their website for only $50.00! It comes in black, nude, and white and ranges to fit sizes 2-18.

You can also find Sound Beginnings systems at Amazon, Toys R Us, Babies ‘R Us, and more!

Bebe Au Lait Nursing Cover Review


Attention, nursing moms! You NEED THIS PRODUCT! I am NOT kidding you! How many times have you tried to nurse in public only to find yourself fumbling to keep yourself covered from prying or dare I say maybe peeping eyes? Your problem is solved, thanks to Bebe Au Lait nursing covers!

I was given a Bebe Au Lait nursing cover to try out when my son was born and I LOVE it. When I first removed it from the package, the first word out of my mouth was “WOW!”. I loved the beautiful purple print of the “Papillion” design. It was GORGEOUS. Many of the other covers that I tried were either dull or neutral to stop from drawing unwanted attention, which can be considered a positive, but I was enamoured with the bold design.

My favorite part about the design in the bowed neckline which allows mommy easy access to view her baby at all times. My son and I had difficulty learning to latch-on correctly at first, so it was critical that I watched him to make sure we were learning correctly (from both of our ends). This neckline is called the Rigiflex system. Not only does it allow you to keep a line of sight with your baby, but it also allows for airflow, which keeps you and your baby comfortable during feeding. Designed to be comfortable, Bebe au Lait covers come with an adjustable neckstrap that is equipped with a D-ring that makes for easy adjustment when necessary. Also, every cover is equipped with two terry cloth pockets on the inside to help keep track of various items that are needed for nursing. I kept my lanolin cream inside to make for easy access.

The covers are made from 100% breathable cotton, making them easy to use for other purposes such as stroller sunshades, blankets, and car seat covers.

Bebe Au Lait states that their “passion is to create and innovate the most beautiful and functional parenting products in the world. We are committed to releasing only those of the highest quality and pride ourselves on providing extraordinary customer service”. It is clear that they take their image and product quality seriously.

Holistic Baby Sleep System Review

The Holistic Baby Sleep System is an innovative and natural sleep method which is used to help mature and optimize the circadian rhythm of babies and toddlers using ideas from Chinese Medicine. I was given a copy of the sleep system to test for myself and so far, I have been pleased! After reading through the instructions and watching the easily mimicked DVD, I feel confident that the Holistic Baby Sleep System will bring more calm to our nighttime routines without being stressful for either my son or myself. Take a look at the description offered on the Holistic Baby website:

This alternative sleep system was developed to help mature and optimize the circadian rhythms of babies and toddlers utilizing the wisdom of Chinese Medicine. The program is easy to implement and put into practice. The program consists of 12 acupressure points that are stimulated using a noninvasive technique over a 24-hour period. What makes this program unique is that it is not a behavioral modification method. This program works to balance the physiological sleep response by stimulating points that “set the body clock”.  And, once the method has improved sleep habits, the points can then be used in different combinations to address common childhood illnesses. It is a system that can be used over and over during your child’s life for a variety of purposes!

Through the use of this gentle and effective method, families may enjoy the following benefits:
•    increase in nap duration
•    increase in nighttime sleep duration
•    decrease in night wakings
•    improved overall pattern of sleep
•    improved digestion
•    decrease in teething discomfort
•    decrease in number or length of illnesses
•    better rested parents and babies

Ready to try the Holistic Baby Sleep System for yourself? Take a look at their online store and see for yourself!

Arm’s Reach Mini Convertible Co-Sleeper Review

During the initial set-up, I heard several colorful words coming from my husband. This isn’t particularly a new thing, but this time he actually was reading the instructions! Apparently, they didn’t make a whole lot of sense to him and he’s a pretty technical-minded kind of guy. Minor hiccup though, because we got the cosleeper put together in a relatively small amount of time and got it all set up and ready for our little boy.

 

First impressions: the co-sleeper is of good size relative to the size of the child who would most likely be using it. Our son was born at 7 pounds, 1 ounce, and he looks like a little doll in it. He’ll probably be able to sleep in this bassinet for the next five or six months until he’s ready to move up into his crib. It’s of sturdy construction and looks to be a wonderful fit for our bedroom. It’s nice to have Garrett so close to our bed without having to worry about him being in his own bed a room away. I love it!

Arm’s reach mini convertible co-sleeper bassinet, the mini convertible infant bed is a unique creation that allows you and your baby to sleep comfortably next to each other from the moment the baby arrives. The position enables you to reach over and draw your baby close for comforting and bonding. Unique design makes breastfeeding easy.

  • Portable playard, Co-Sleeper and free standing Bassinet
  • Wheels on one end makes moving around the house and through doorways much easier
  • Very easy to assemble, decorator liner – No bumper pad needed
  • Ventilated floor to avoid heat build-up
  • Comes with 100% cotton fitted sheet and carry bag

All in all, I absolutely adore the Arm’s Reach Mini Convertible Co-Sleeper and I definitely recommend it! If you’d like to get your hands on your own bassinet, you can get one from Amazon at a great price! Take a look!

NurturMe: Healthy and Wholesome Baby Food Review

 

NurturMeBabyDo you have a texture-sensitive baby? Or maybe a toddler who is incredibly picky? NurturMe is an excellent option for you then! NurturMe is a line of wholesome baby foods that are quick-dried so that you can make them into the texture that you (or your baby) likes. Just add breastmilk, formula, water, or whole milk and mix to the desired consistency. How easy is that? NurturMe comes in a variety of flavors including pumpkin, pea, apple, sweet potato, squash, and carrot. I’m drooling just thinking about all of the yummy fruits and vegetables!

I took the above image from NurturMe literally when I was testing out these products and I mixed the pumpkin flavor into my daughter’s Macaroni and Cheese, her “Oni Cheese!”. She ate it just like she always does, almost like she’s inhaling it and the best part is that although I’d added extra nutrion for her, she didn’t even know the difference!

Check out the following video to get some more information about NurturMe:

Buggy Love Stroller Cleaning System Review

Parents will often obsess over the cleanliness of their baby’s accessories from the crib to the carseat to their clothes, but often times, we forget the most obviously contaminated item of all: the stroller. Think about it: your heft the stroller in and out of your vehicle and it goes everywhere your feet (and everyone else’s) go. I bet if you were to test for bacteria, viruses, and other germs, you’d find that your baby’s stroller is a breeding ground for disease. It doesn’t have to be that way!

Buggy Love is an organic system that is designed to keep your baby’s stroller clean and fresh. I was given the Buggy Love Stroller Cleaning Kit to review. The kit includes 4 products plus some accessories: FreshLOVE, PolishLOVE, FabricLOVE & WheelLOVE + Tampico Scrub Brush, Reclaimed Microfiber Cloth and Carry-All Bag.

FRESHLOVE- 8 oz. of exotic and soothing, organic, rosehip scented solution for all-over freshening. Life is short, it should smell sweet everywhere you go. Neutralize unpleasant scents on strollers, car seats, changing tables, play areas, bathrooms or, well…anywhere.

PURELOVE- 8 oz. of crisp, organic, tangerine scented solution for daily, on-the-go cleaning of life’s messy situations. Safe to use on toys, strollers, high chairs…yet strong enough to clean your house from top to bottom.

FABRICLOVE- See ya’ milk and formula spots! 4 oz. and/or 1 oz. of highly concentrated, organic, clementine scented solution for safe and effective use on most fabrics. Easily remove stains that appear on strollers, carseats, high chairs, and even your favorite chair or shirt.

WHEELLOVE- 1.5 oz. of the first-ever, all natural, stroller wheel lube that eliminates squeaks and squeals.

My favorite two products out of my kit were the FRESHLOVE and the FABRICLOVE. FRESHLOVE was able to remove the odor from the carseat and stroller with ease and the FABRICLOVE took out all of the spit-up and food stains. I LOVED it!

The Buggy Love Stroller Cleaning Kit costs $49.99, but using the coupon code: sharethelove, you can get a $10 introductory discount (or 25% off)!
