Sprinkle, Shower, Let It Pour! Pampers $300 *Miracle Missions* Giveaway

Posted by · 718 Comments

Recently introduced to the concept of a “Sprinkle,” I wish the idea caught on in time for my 2nd baby. For those not yet enlightened, a sprinkle is a mini-shower, typically given for a soon-to-be-mom who already has children. Maybe the baby is a different gender…maybe her friends and family can’t resist the excuse to party. Either way, whether a sprinkle or full-blown baby shower, Pampers continues to celebrate new little ones with their Miracle Missions campaign. From throwing baby showers to Father’s Day BBQs to lending a helping hand to those in need, Miracle Missions encourage people to suport one another is small ways that make a big difference.

You can support Mission #3 by clicking the “I Support” button on their Facebook page. Pampers will donate one diaper, one pack of wipes, and one dollar to Direct Relief International ® to help those affected recently by natural disasters across the U.S. For their first mission Pampers showered moms-to-be; they would love to shower (or sprinkle) one lucky Cool Baby Kid as well! Thank you Pampers for the opportunity as a Baby Board member to help one expecting mother on her way to diaper cakes and “guess the belly girth” games.

Bestever Animal Themed Baby Mats *Giveaway*

Posted by · 171 Comments

With the exception of clothes, obviously, I buy everything gender neutral for my daughter. This was also the case when picking out my Best Ever Baby Mat. I picked out the Cow Baby Mat thinking this would be a great hand-me-down when my daughter grows out of it as babies tend to do rather quickly. When I unpacked the mat from the box I wished I had gotten one especially for my daughter because this is sure to grow with her. The Best Ever Baby Mat is adorable, soft and small enough to lug around from room to room or from play date to play date. These could be used for nap times for newborns and infants, for baby areas, which is what I call the area in every room dedicated to baby’s play area, and as a sleeping companion for a toddler or young child.  There are very few baby items out there that are able to grow with your baby but I’m just glad that I found one of them!

Editor’s Note: Best Ever is also home to other adorable baby gear and toys including Funny Feet and more. Check out the Best Sellers for a taste of their offerings as well as their weekly special and sale section for deals and steals on baby gifts.

Gunapod Wearable Blanket

Posted by · 1 Comment

Although a wearable blanket isn’t a new concept, this new take on an old standby certainly makes it seems like it is. Living in the northeast, the temperature can be quite unpredictable. The day can start off warm and beautiful but then can get pretty cold later that night. With my daughter, swaddling just didn’t work. She hated it, but I needed something to keep her warm during naps and at night since regular blankets at such a young age are a huge no-no. I tried a few different ones and they were either too light, too heavy, I didn’t like the fabric, or they just didn’t allow her to move around as much as she wanted to. After I had my second child I resumed my search and I found Gunapod. When I first opened it I couldn’t believe how soft it was. Seriously, you’ll want one for yourself it feels so nice.

But even more than that this wearable blanket provides so many possibilities it’s definitely made things easier with my second daughter. First of all, it zips down the middle and all around the sides so not only can you change your baby’s diaper from the front, but you can also unzip the bottom to allow your child’s feet to stick out or just unzip a side to adjust a diaper. This also allows you to take the entire blanket off (along with unsnapping the shoulder snaps) so you can easily put your baby into the blanketor take her out without ever wakening her since the front and back are entirely separate pieces. Another great aspect is that it goes up to size 24 months. This is a great feature. My daughter got the green light a long time ago to use a blanket in her crib but she still hasn’t mastered the idea of keeping a blanket over her on chilly nights. With the gunapod I know she’ll be covered and now I don’t have to worry about her getting to chilly at night. Of course a mom invented this.

Scout by Bungalow Diaper Bag & Totes *Giveaway*

Posted by · 169 Comments

My biggest pet peeve with diaper bags is how messy they quickly became which is why the Pocket Rocket by Scout would have been ideal. Though I use the wipable bag for toting around groceries and even once on a picnic with the kids, I could see it’s appeal as a diaper bag which easily attaches to the back of a stroller. With three pockets on each outside to quickly grab essentials such as wipes or toys, it’s easy access and stylish designs make it a winner for new parents.

The whimsical Bungalow by Scout website entices users to click around, and here are some of my favorite finds:
