With two young girls I must tell you that I have had my share of middle of the night sheet changes. Nothing is worst than not getting to your kid in time when they have to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night. BSensible has made that problem much easier for all parents.

About BSensible:

BSensible branded bedding products are designed and manufactured by Bedding Industrial Beguda SL (BIB). They are located around 100 miles northeast of Barcelona, Spain. BIB is an innovative company that is a part of the MITSA Group in Spain that specializes in the manufacturing of customized fabrics for bedding and several other applications.

The manufacturing process is totally vertical: it begins with knitting yarn in order to deliver natural textiles, which are then moved to our dyeing and finishing departments. Later, the fabric arrives at their lamination area, where the latest generation of waterproof and breathable polyurethane membranes are applied. Their laminated fabrics are finally cut and sewn into ready-made products which are packaged and distributed around the world.

My Thoughts:

I have been completely impressed with the BSensible sheets that we were able to do a review on. Luckily my girls are (fingers crossed) past the bed wetting stage, but I feel so much better knowing that the mattresses are safe and protected under those great sheets. Literally the day that I put the sheets on the bed, my daughter spilled her bottle of water all over the bed so were able to truthfully see the sheets at work. Nothing got on my mattress and it was quick and easy for us to clean up.

Purchase:

If you are interested in purchasing some great sheets for little ones with problems getting their beds wet, these are the sheets for you. Head on over to their website and find which color and size you would like.

Who doesn’t love customized items? I know that with school starting just around the corner everyone seems to be getting everything ready. What better way to ring in the new school year than with customized items from Zoey’s Attic!

About Zoey’s Attic Personalized Gifts: 

Zoey’s Attic officially launched in November 2006 by creator and owner , Erin Delanty. She got the inspiration shortly after having her first child. She had the problem finding out of the ordinary newborn baby tees as well as had friends that were having a hard time finding unique big brother/big sister gear.

Erin has a background as a graphic designer, as well as a web developer. She decided to use that background to design her own line of products.

The initial idea of the store was to create a web-based shop where new parents and parents-to-be could involve all members of the family in exciting “baby news” by offering a variety of pregnancy or baby announcements and hard-to-find big brother/sister tees.

They now offer many products that the whole family can share in.

Where did the name come from?

Zoey was the name of one of her daughters early favorite toys when she was young. The toy was given to her by Erin’s mother and she thought it was a great way to connect three generations. ….and everyone knows that there are wonderful, unexpected treasures to find in an attic.

My Thoughts:

I was incredibly impressed by this great product. All the supplies that you need for a wide variety of projects together in one spot and with instructions to guide you, how could you possibly go wrong? 🙂 We are out and about and on the go a lot and I am always looking for something to take with me for the girls to have to do when we get somewhere. I have had a few vacations this summer and been so happy to have a tote full of art supplies that I can throw in the car as we are pulling out.

The girls have enjoyed all of the wonderful creations that they have already made. When they see me get out one of the craft totes they get excited to pick out what project that they are going to make. A few of the projects they have definitely needed my help for, but I enjoy doing things with them so that definitely isn’t a problem for me.

In addition to all the projects we have made and the convenience of having everything together in one spot, it’s not the only use that I have found for the Craft totes. The Totes make wonderful gifts for birthday parties for kids.

Thousands of kids from across the country auditioned and Kidz Bop had the tough job of narrowing it down to cast these four singing & dancing phenoms.

  14. See You Again

My Thoughts:

We are huge fans of these cds. My girls get so excited when a new cd is coming in the mail. Once we get a new one we are always listening to it in the car and singing on the karaoke machine when we’re home. I am so happy to have great cds with the popular songs that I enjoy that my kids can listen to as well. I can’t wait to see what cd they come up with next.

By Trace Moroney

The Things I Love About Friends celebrates the everyday events that make up your child’s experiences, while emphasizing the importance of sharing ideas, interests, goals, and feelings with others.

There are so many things to love about friends — sharing ideas, interests, feelings, and fun times. It’s important to learn how to be a good friend. This book in The Things I Love series by Trace Moroney celebrates the everyday situations that form the basis of our children’s experiences. Spending time with your children and giving them love and care helps them to celebrate who they are, building resilience and self-respect.

This beautifully produced series shows examples of creating positive thought. It has been carefully designed to help children feel loved, nurtured, accepted, and safe, ultimately increasing their confidence and self-esteem.

20150709_183931

My Thoughts

My son loved this sweet book, the illustrations and story are adorable.   It focuses on what good friends do and what makes a good friend.  Kids want to have great friendships, but can sometimes have a hard time making or keeping friends.  Maybe the child is bullied or feels bad about themselves.  This cute book gives positive images, thoughts, and ideas on friends and friendship.   This book would be good for children up to about 2nd grade.

You can grab this book on Amazon, Barnes and Nobel, and more.
