Introducing Pampers Limited Edition USA Diapers & Wipes

Posted by · Leave a Comment

While I’m bummed our family will not be travelling to London for the 2012 Olympics, it will be exciting to watch from home. We’ll especially be watching the U.S. Beach Volleyball Team now that our daughter has a signed volleyball from two-time Olympic Games Gold medalist and Team USA athlete, Kerri Walsh! Having partnered with Pampers to help introduce Limited Edition “USA” diapers and wipes hitting shelves this April, this mom is proud “our boys to be representing the USA flag.” The new diaper designs feature an adorable “USA” print with red, white and blue stars and stripes so your little one can show their Team USA pride, while still exploring and conquering their world through play.  The wipes packaging also pays tribute to Team USA with similar packaging designs.

We received a package in the mail with the products pictured and gave them to babies whose parents are excited to sport the USA logo on their bitty bums. Celebrity endorsements can feel forced making parents question how genuine the partnership is. Having worked closely with Pampers for some time, however, I very much believe Kerri Walsh is sincere in her enthusiasm about the brand. It’s not an accident the Pampers website is titled “Pampers Village.”  They care about babies, as many are parents themselves, and I root for Pampers just like will this summer for the good ol’ US of A.

Product samples were provided for review purposes as a Pampers Baby Board member; all opinions are 100% my own.

Cool Tip

Keep up with Kerri Walsh and Team USA on Twitter. Starting April 16th you’ll even have a chance to win a trip to the London for the 2012 Olympics so be sure to stay tuned by following Pampers on both Twitter and Facebook.

Posted by · 113 Comments

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.

Neosporine Essentials are Essential for Eczema

Posted by · Leave a Comment

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.

Cool Tip:

Download and print these Neosporin coupons before you shop.

Playskool Poppin’ Park Eelefun Busy Ball Popper *Giveaway*

Posted by ·

This new Eelefun Busy Ball Popper character from Playskool is a great addition to the ball popping fun from the popular Busy Ball Popper! We love the Elephant character. Your child can relate to the toy as a pal. They can drop the colorful balls into the Elefun character’s ears, and it’s anybody’s guess which way they’ll roll into the belly for put-and-take play, roll across the room for baby to crawl after, or back through the trunk for more poppin’ surprises. The young ones loved that element of surprise and giggled with anticipation throughout their play. The elephant’s trunk also rotates 360 degrees so you can control the ball popping action and change it up on occasion. While playing, the Elefun also has music for your little ones’ ears; we especially loved the ten different tunes.

Have you tried the original Busy Ball Popper? What do you think of the new elephant character?

Baby TripClips: An Innovative Baby Must-Have *Giveaway*

Posted by · 17 Comments

The ultimate “jack of all trades” baby product is the Baby Tripclips which could be used in all sorts of situations.  This tool should be put in your diaper bag so when you are in a bind; it can save the day.  The Baby TripClip is the all in one diaper bag essential and so versatile; it is a necessity in order to simplify your trips out and daily life with your little ones.

For one thing it serves as a bib on-the-go. How many times have you forgotten a bib, soiled the only one you had, or ripped those throw away bibs just before your child’s food arrives at a restaurant?   Just hook the clip around baby’s neck with a regular napkin at any restaurant and you have yourself a bib.  How many times did you need to nurse your baby in private and did not have anything with you except a blanket that won’t stay put; the tripclip can save the day again.  Simply place around your own neck and clip its easy one-handed clip right onto the blanket to keep it firmly in place. The clip adjusts to different lengths so you can use the baby tripclip in so many different ways and does not snap shut so it’s safe for little fingers. You can use Baby TripClips to attach a toy your child keeps throwing out of the stroller, put a blanket on your stroller to shade out sun or even rain if you get caught unexpectedly in a sprinkle. In the winter, you can use the baby tripclip to make sure those gloves do not get lost or your child’s hat does not blow away.  The usages are endless and you will be saving precious room in your diaper bag! It’s a great shower gift, birthday gift, or any day gift for an expectant mom or any mom. The best part is that these babyclips grow with your child. Preschool age children can attach the tripclip to their backpacks. They come in a variety of patterns for boys, girls, or neutral. This is one item you should not leave your home without and can be purchased at Amazon.com (US) and on the sites listed on BabyTripClips.com (Canada).
