With what seems like everyone around me having babies right now, I am constantly on the look out for perfect gifts. Not only do I want adorable gifts, but I want gifts of good quality with items that they are actually going to use. I was very impressed with the Baby Aspen Giraffe Gift Basket.

WIN Pajaminals Board Book and Plush Toy

August 15, 2013 by Samantha 26 Comments

My daughter loves to read. I don’t think there’s anything else she would rather do than cuddle up with my husband or I and read. So, when we found out the popular children’s show Pajanimals (Running Press Kids) teamed up with The Jim Henson Company to make a book, we were completely and 100% sold!

As a mom, it is so important for me to see my daughter enjoy reading.
I love the fact that Sweet Pea Sue Makes a New Friend encourages my daughter to use her imagination. It also teaches her not to be afraid of people (or things) that are different than she is. In fact, after reading this book to her a few times, I’ve noticed that her own fears have decreased a little bit! She no longer screams at the sight of mannequins at the store when I remind her of Sweet Pea Sue and her friend Ellie. That, my friends, is a huge accomplishment!

Not only does this book have a great message, but it also includes reusable stickers that you can stick on each page to make the book “come to life”. I mean, could it get better than that?

Keeping Your Kids Safe in the Sun

August 12, 2013 by Samantha Leave a Comment

Keeping your children protected when playing in the sun is a key priority for parents. We have all experienced the uncomfortable feeling of sunburn, and with nasty side effects such as dehydration and fevers; sun protection is crucial for a happy and healthy holiday with your little ones.

As the children enjoy plenty of time off school and outdoors, I thought it would be useful to take a look at the important matter of sun care for your children, and the top ways to keep your children safe in the sunshine this summer.

Sun Exposure
If possible, it is advised that exposure to the sun is limited between the hours of 10am and 2pm, when the sun is at its highest. UV rays at their strongest between this time, and therefore this can be the most harmful time for your children to out in the sun.
Sun Cream
Sun cream is a must when it comes to your children, even if the sun is hidden away. Always use a high protector sun cream for your children, 50+ is the recommended factor by researches. When purchasing your suncream, products designed especially for kids are generally best, as they generally have a very high factor and are gentle on the skin.

Suncream Application
To ensure maximum protection from your suncream, remember to apply 15 to 30 minutes before heading out in the sun, giving the cream time to absorb into to the skin. Suncream also needs to be reapplied every 2 hours and after swimming or sweating.

Disclosure: The below mentioned baby items from NUK were provided to me to help facilitate my review. All opinions are my own and honest. I am disclosing this in accordance to FTC Guidelines. Please see “Disclose” tab for more information.

There are so many baby products out there that it truly is impossible to be able to know about each of them. I will admit that I had never really been exposed to too many of the NUK products, but I will say that I am a huge fan of them now.

About NUK Cups:

NUK has a wide variety of cups available. They start out with the Learner Cups, and slowly progress as your child advances.

The cups that are available are:

NUK 10oz. Learner Cups ($6.74)
Gerber Graduates Advance Developmental Cups Soft Silicone Spout ($4.97)
Gerber Graduates Advance Developmental Cups Hard Spout ($4.47)
Gerber Graduates Advance Developmental Cups Insulated Cup-Like Rim ($4.97)
Gerber Graduates Advance Developmental Cups EasyStraw ($5.47)

Each of the cups are appropriate for certain stages of development in your childs’ lives.

The cups are all 100% Spill-Proof, Leak-Proof, and Break-Proof Guaranteed.

My Thoughts:

I was a huge fan of each of these cups. They really are all great. I was also extremely impressed with the Spill-proof, break-proof, leak-proof guarantee. So far I can say that we have had no problems with any of the cups leaking. My daughters enjoy drinking from each of the cups, as well as the fabulous designs that are on each of the cups. I definitely won’t be picking any other cups 🙂

About NUK Fast-Dry Bottle Rack:

The Fast-Dry Bottle Rack dries each of your bottles or cups up to 10x faster than standard bottle cups. The rack contains a battery operated fan. The rack truly cuts drying time from hours to minutes. The rack holds up to 8 bottles plus nipples and accessories.

The Fast-Dry Bottle Rack sells for $24.97.

My Thoughts:

Cleaning all the millions and millions of bottles and sippy cups each day is a huge task. I am definitely a huge fan of the Fast-Dry Bottle Rack. My children are both out of the bottle stage, but we somehow go through sippy cups like they are going out of style :). I use this rack very frequently. I love how fast they dry with the fan on, but I am also impressed with how fast they dry with just placing them on the rack as well.
