Disney and Creativity Go Hand in Hand

February 27, 2017 By: Nanette

This post contains affiliate links. This product was received free of charge.

disney and creativity

It’s no secret how much I love Disney. One of the things I love so much about Disney is the creativity, the imagination, the thinking out of the box and making the magic real. I’m a firm believer in teaching the whole child. Children need art. They have a need to be creative and need to be allowed to express that creative side of them. So when seedling.com approached me and shared their new Beauty and The Beast Design Your Own Enchanted Rose Crown I knew I wanted to share it with you.

Disney and Creativity

Disney and creativity, Seedling found the perfect collaboration with Disney. They don’t just have the Design Your Own Enchanted Rose Crown, they have an entire line of amazing Disney crafts to do with your children.  But that’s not all they have, they have many other crafts as well if you are looking for some crafts to do with your children that aren’t Disney themed. I just happen to really like the Disney ones. Yes, I’m just a little bit biased.

beauty and the beast craft

Everything you need to create your craft is included and more just in case you want to add a little more sparkle to your crown. ‘Cause you know, us princesses love to sparkle!

I love that in the instructions kids are encouraged to be creative, to plan out their design and sketch it out on paper before putting it together. Just that alone incorporates so many skills children need to learn. The homeschooling mom in me loves that!

Various types of Crafts

You can find crafts that include painting like the Alice In Wonderland Design Your Own Tea Party Set Kit, The Dark Side Activity Kit which is a DIY Virtual Reality Viewer and so many more. They can be found at Seedling.com and on Amazon.com

  • Design Your Own Super Hero Cape

  • Design Your Own Butterfly Wings

  • Let’s Make Mini Mermaids

  • Top Secret Spy Kit

  • Seedling Fashion Designer Kit

You really should take a look. It would be the perfect gift or rainy day activity for your child. If a non-DIY’er can make a craft and it not be a total disaster (i.e. why I don’t try Pinterest crafts) your little one will certainly enjoy the opportunity to express themselves in a fun and creativity.


Enjoy the Music, Stay Aware! AMPED Bluetooth Neck Band

December 21, 2016 By: Nanette

I received the AMPED Bluetooth Neck-Bands free of charge in order to facilitate this review and host the upcoming giveaway. This post also includes affiliate links. Keep reading so you can learn more about how you can enjoy your music with the AMPED Bluetooth Neck-Band and how you can win your own.

listen to music stay aware

As a mom, I worry about my kids’ safety. Wondering why I’m talking about my kid’s safety when I’m supposed to be reviewing a Bluetooth neck band well, I’ll tell you. So often I see people walking, running, cycling or even kids on skateboards in traffic with headphones on or earbuds in and they don’t hear the car coming behind them. It’s just not safe to drown out all ambient noise when listening to music or talking on the phone.

My kids aren’t out on the streets but even in the car, they have their headphones on and can’t hear me. What if I have to warn them of something like a sudden stop or worse an unavoidable situation and they can’t hear me because they have their headphones on? Not to mention what having music on so loud that it drowns out everything else could do to damage their hearing.

This is why I think the Amped Bluetooth Neck Band is such a cool product.

Just look at some of its features:

  • Three modes:

Adult Mode – maximum sound level of 98dB

Youth Mode – the maximum sound level of 85dB (So you don’t have to worry about hearing damage.)

Sport Mode – adult mode with additional sound muting time for maximum protection in extreme conditions such as fireworks and construction sites.

  • Retractable ear buds. The cord on them is flat so you won’t have that issue of tangled cords.
  • Noise Reduction Rating 24dB
  • Powered by a Rechargable battery which lasts up to 10 hours on a single charge. If you are using it for music. If you are using it with your phone, it won’t last that long.
  • Multiple earbud tip styles and sizes included. I love this! Sometimes it’s the little things that are going to make life a lot easier.
  • AC wall adapter and USB charging cable included.
  • Two color options – black rubberized and white/gray. Because of course, you have to be able to tell them apart with two kids or at least I do.
  • Small carrying pouch included.  No more big clunky headphones to carry around in your purse because you know moms always get stuck carrying extra stuff around. That’s why our purses are so big.
  • Flexible. They basically fold up to fit into the carrying case and you can fit the charger in there as well.
  • Sweat resistant neckband.
  • Earbuds and Microphone. Works with both music players (iPods) and phones.
  • Easily connects to Bluetooth. We had no trouble connecting. Hey, if can make it work you can too.

Best of all, I love that my kids will still be able to hear the things going on around them while they are enjoying their music.

I did a quick unboxing video of the AMPED Bluetooth Neck-band so you can take a quick look at everything that’s included!

Now about that giveaway I mentioned. Tomorrow you’ll find the giveaway post here on the blog. I’m giving away one AMPED Bluetooth Neck-band. So make sure you bookmark this page so you can come back and enter tomorrow. You can click that little email button up top and you’ll be notified when the post goes live. Trust me you’re going to want one so make sure you enter!

 

Calming the Cough – V CLEAR EPs7630

September 19, 2016 By: Nanette

This post contains affiliate links. It is not a sponsored posted. I really believe in this product and know it works well for us and wanted to share it with you as well just in case you need it but hoping you stay healthy enough not to.

I don’t get sick often. When I say often I mean, maybe once or twice every 8 years or so. My kids used to get sick more often but thankfully they don’t anymore. Of course, with the start of the new school year and lots of germs, my daughter managed to bring home just enough germs to pass along a cold to me. It all starts with a dry or funny feeling in the throat then boom! I’ve got a cold.

But thankfully, several years ago our naturaupathic doctor’s office recommended V CLEAR EPs 7630. It’s an upper respiratory treatment. Cherry flavor so my kids don’t fuss about taking it. In fact, if they feel something coming on they’ll ask for it or ask me to purchase some if we’re out. It used to be easy to get, I’d just drive over the our doctor’s office and pick some up but we can’t do that now. So my next option is to pick it up on Amazon and just have it shipped straight to me.

I’m not one for taking prescription or over the counter medicines but V CLEAR really works. When even my husband says it works and asks for it when he’s having upper respiratory issues, then I know it works.

The active ingredient in it is Pelargonium sidoides 1X which shortens the duration and reduces the severity of upper respratory symptoms including congeston, hoarseness, cough, sore throat and headache. I’m just glad I had a new bottle in the cabinet. I recommend it to my friends and family when they are in need of something to help with upper respiratory issues. If you are looking for something with winter coming up, you might want to give it a try. It’s the only thing we’ve ever found that really works.
