Tiny Love Soothe ‘n Groove Musical Mobile

Gone are the days of the dainty, wind up mobiles. The 21st Century mobile is here–Tiny Love Soothe ‘n Groove Mobile.  This colorful mobile is sure to keep your baby engaged with eighteen different musical selections broken down into six categories.  One of the categories is the “white noise” feature that keeps your newborn feeling safe and familiar.  It also has two speakers that you can adjust the volume according to your liking.  The best part is that the mobile plays for 40 minutes…yes, 40 minutes!  You can also choose to play happy tunes for your child’s enjoyment or more relaxing tunes for helping baby calm helself to sleep.  The variety of music keeps my three  month old amused and engaged in her crib while mommy is cleaning th bedrooms and getting ready for the day.  The Tiny Love Soothe ‘n Groove mobile also features a calming light as well as an overhead light.  When the music is playing the buttons also light up which stimulates my daughter.  

When she has outgrown this unique mobile, she can enjoy pushing the toddler friendly buttons which will enhance her fine motor skills.  Once she can walk, she can carry around the music box for more months of enjoyment. The detachable mobile can be stored away for future use while my daughter can still enjoy the musical tunes and continue to stimulate her senses.  This product grows with your child from birth up until she is walking around the house. It’s very easy to put together and take apart when the time comes.   Your child will surely enjoy the Tiny Love Soothe ‘n Groove Mobile, and I highly recommend.

New Pampers Soft Care Wipes *Win Year’s Supply*

Although my babies are now 3 and 5, we continue to use Pampers wipes daily. Stored in a kitchen cabinet, each of the kids’ rooms, both cars and in my purse, they come in handy to clean up messy counters, hands, faces…you name it, we use Pampers wipes to clean it. The new Soft Care wipes are adorable and more easily portable. The new stylish design negates the need for fancy wipe containers and shove very nicely into a diaper bag, or in my case, a “transition bag” as I like to call it.

Neosporine Essentials are Essential for Eczema

Don’t let the fun alliterative title fool you, Neosporine Essentials are no joke. As a parent of a preschooler newly diagnosed with eczema, I couldn’t have been more excited to review this new line of products. Not only is the entire line of eczema care including daily body wash, moisturizer and anti-itch cream specifically designed for eczema sufferers, they eliminate the need for more expensive products. I was shocked a few weeks ago when scouring Target for eczema lotion and fragrance free body wash to discover how much I’d have to pay for such products. Holy pricey Batman!

Luckily not only do they seem to help my son’s delicate skin in the midst of his first flare up, but the website is also an incredible resource with help for parents and caregivers whose children can’t stop itching from this unfortunate condition. The 1% Hydrocortisone Anti-itch Cream works especially well. My son has itched some spots to the point of bleeding, so with the help of short nails, this cream and even a band-aid or two for more troublesome areas, in just a few days I’ve already noticed a marked improvement.

From NeosporinEssentials.com

Neosporin Essential products “are all fragrance-free, and the National Eczema Association (NEA) has given their Seal of Acceptance to the Daily Moisturizing Cream and Daily Body Wash.” Other tools such as the Flare Discovery Tool that helps identify eczema triggers, their FAQ page and links to additional resources offer parents like myself a one-stop shop for all things eczema. This is a product I can stand behind 100%. Thanks Neosporin!

I wrote this review while participating in a campaign by Mom Central Consulting on behalf of Neosporin Essentials and received a product sample to facilitate my review, and a promotional item to thank me for participating.

Last-Minute Gift & Stocking Stuffers *Giveaway*

Mozart Magic Cube

If you’re looking for some last minute gifts, Munchkin has a great selection for infants, toddlers, preschool age, and even baby shower gifts as well. I was really having trouble getting something for Christmas for my 3 month old daughter; when I received this product, I knew it was just what I needed.  The colors, sounds and level of  interaction is perfect for my little one.  The Mozart Magic Cube  is an interactive musical toy with eight Mozart pieces for your child to enjoy.  The rounded edges are easy for little hands to maneuver and the big buttons are the perfect size for baby’s fingers to push and hear the music.  The cube lights up and plays music just with little ones touch.  Your child can start with one instrument and then add more sounds as they touch more sides of it.  They can also subtract an instrument by again touching the cube.  This is also an educational toy as the child can begin to recognize the different instruments by the pictures of the piano, violin and more on the Mozart Magic Cube.  You can begin to mold your little musica prodigy with the interaction of this product. It has also won the Dr. Toy Best Vacation Product and the Parents Choice Award and is the perfect gift for little one to enjoy.

 

 Bath Time Toys:

We all know that bath time can become crazy time without the bathtub toys.  I needed some toys that would amuse a 3 month old and grab the attention of my 3 year old as well.  These two bath time toys by munchkin accomplished just that.  While bathing my 3 year old, my baby watches with wonder as he sprayed water through his Star Fountain. He laughed and in turn the little one began to giggle as well. Her eyes popped as the star spun and sprayed with a blue glow. For only $9.99, this could be a great stocking stuffer.        

Dolphin Divers by Munchkin was a hit!  My son loves dolphins and whales, so this is his new favorite.  It  has a removable whale that can scoop up water and as your child pours the water, the dolphins below spin with fury.  Being a teacher, of course, I had to make this toy educational by talking about cause and effect.  What happens when the water is poured, the dolphins spin–it’s a great conversation to have with a three year old to get him to start thinking about more higher order thinking skills.  Being able to accomplish a task like this, while he is playing in the tub makes this bath toy even better.  And again, for the price, this would also make a great stocking stuffer your children are sure to enjoy.

 SaraBear Diaper Caddy 

When they say at-your-finger-tips accessibility to all the baby care essentials, they are not kidding.  The SaraBear Diaper Caddy by Munchkin is a great product. I have a pack and play downstairs for my 3 month old daughter and it never seemed to have enough room for all I need when changing time arrives.  This SaraBear Diaper Caddy is a godsend.  All I need is right there at arms reach.  My three year old can even help by grabbing the product I need. This makes him feel part of the changing ritual instead of on the outs.  Believe me, this cuts down on a lot of attention grabbing mischief.  The SaraBear Diaper Caddy has really has made my life easier.  The caddy basket is also appealing to the eyes.  It’s made of real wood in a tight weave with a 100% cotton liner and a collapsible handle. This makes it so easy to carry the basket to any room, you can’t do that with a pack n play. The caddy had a variety of sizes of pockets to hold wipes, diapers, creams, etc.  It is also eco- friendly.  When reading the packaging it also suggests that when baby starts to grow out of diaper changing, the basket can be transformed into a place for electronic devices (cell phone, iPod or TV Remotes) or even in the child’s room as a place to put and organize her toys. I was thinking what a great shower gift this would make.  You can fill the entire basket with the baby changing essentials and the new mom will be prepared and it looks great all wrapped up in some clear plastic and a bow.  You will be the envy of the other guests of the shower when the new mom is crooning over your gift.

When I receive the Me Giant product in the mail, everyone with me was enthralled to see what this was in the cool, colorful metal lunchbox. My husband commented on how he is going to be the star of the party giving this gift. When you open the lunchbox and see the onsesie, you can’t help but smile. It  really is a “small thing with giant style.” I am ordering one for each of my children as well for Christmas. The metal lunchbox will be a great container for my son’s little cars–two gifts in one. Check out Me Giant and their collection of baby bibs, creepers, hats and more to see for yourself.
