Little Pim Language Learning DVD review Closed! D.Little!

review

Did you know that children can learn another language easier than we adults can?  Scientific research shows that learning a foreign language comes naturally at an early age for children.  From birth to 6 years old children can retain so much in their little brains and this is when they really need to be exposed to a second language.
The Entertainment Immersion Method® integrates the latest scientific research regarding kids’ language learning and brain development.  Little Pim uses dvd's to teach a child 360 words and phrases. Babies, toddlers and kids respond enthusiastically to Lil Pims format.
Watch this video to show you just what Little Pim is all about:

Udderly Smooth Skin Care Set review/giveaway

review/giveaway


Do you have dry, flaky, cracked skin a lot this time of year?  Winter can really be hard on the skin by drying it out.  There is a wonderful set of skin care that will add moisture back to the those really dry areas - Udderly Smooth.  Udderly Smooth will make those elbows, hands, knees and feet feel soft and smooth again.
Udderly Smooth moisture rich creams and lotions are the antidote to dry skin. It absorbs deeply, helping to quench dry, thirsty skin from the inside out.

There are 3 parts of this skin care set that I reviewed:

1) Udderly Smooth® 4 oz. Udder Cream: The Udderly Smooth handy tube that’s perfect to take on the go. Stash it everywhere from the diaper bag and purse, car and desk, to the tool box and gym bag. The fresh clean fragrance of Udderly Smooth makes it a favorite among both men and women! (average retail value of $2.99)

"What Daddy Did Today" Children's Book review

"What Daddy Did Today"
Children's Book
review

When you were a child did you ever wonder where your Dad went when he said he was going to work everyday?  Most children have a large imagination and when Daddy says he is going to work...well, they can only wonder what his "work" really is.
Walter Wally is the author of this adorable book about a fathers love for his child.
In this book Dad goes out to work and on his way he encounters a kitten stuck in a  tree so Dad climbs up and saves him and ends up wrestling a Tiger.  Dad is sent up to space in an air balloon and finds a sad planet needing a smile.  Dad tickles the little planet until he is no longer sad.  Off Dad goes again and faces the wrath of a mean old Dragon.  Daddy  conquers the Dragon and saves a little cub.
Daddy goes through many things in his work day but in the end he comes back home to his child just in time for the bedtime story.

Portable North Pole - A Video from Santa

Portable North Pole
A Special Video from Santa

Nothing is more precious than seeing a child's face when he meets Santa and tells him all the things he wants for Christmas.  Christmas is such a magical and loving time of year.  We celebrate the birth of our savior, Jesus Christ and we also get to celebrate the holiday about a jolly man, with a white beard, that lives at the North Pole and brings toys to good little boys and girls. Of course the legend of Santa is just make believe but Oh! what fun it is!
This is the 5th year of Portable North Pole and Santa's video messages and more for your child.  To celebrate the 5 year PNP is letting you send that special child, or children, a video message straight from Santa himself for free.  All you need to do is go to the link and help Santa out with a little information so he can get the video ready for your special person.

My Feeding Friend review/giveaway

review/giveaway


I am so super excited to host a review, and a giveaway, for all my readers for this adorable product.  My Feeding Friend is not only VERY handy to a nursing mom, but it is a friend to your toddler as he crawls all over it.  Then in later years you will more than likely find it across  the bed of the teenager you watched it grow up with.
I love this pillow and I sure wish it would of around when I was nursing my babies.  I used a regular bed pillow that was never long enough and it kept balling up under the baby.  With the Feeding Friend those problems are not there at all.  Watch the owner and developer explain the Feeding Friend to you in the video below:

Contact Cold & Flu review/giveaway

 It's that time again...flu and cold season.  I hate letting either one of these get me down.  Both illnesses make you feverish and achy and just plain sick.
 I was provided a sample of Contact Cold & Flu to see how it works.  This product could not of came at a better time. I woke up yesterday morning feeling so terrible and sick.   Since I had received my free sample of Contact Cold & Flu I decided that now would be the best time to give it a try.

Intellectual Baby Reading DVD's review/giveaway

review/giveaway


Can a baby learn to read?  Yes they can!  Just ask the very satisfied parents of babies everywhere that are so pleased with the results they have seen with Intellectual Baby.
Intell Baby knows all about teaching your baby to read.  Here is how the brain works with babies:
When babies are born, rapid brain development begins to take place.  Research has proven that a baby’s brain is wired to learn language.  This includes any language, whether spoken, written or sign. 
Many of us don’t speak a foreign language, so teaching our baby to speak one is pretty much out of the question.  But, we do know how to read and we can share this gift with our babies at a time when it is easiest for them to learn.  The funny thing is that it takes hardly any time at all and your baby will think it is all just a game.  
It requires no effort for your baby to learn to read.  Babies are just absorbing information at an incredible rate the first five years of life.  By playing the reading game with babies as young as 3 months old, you can give your baby a strong start in life.

Zone Perfect Bars review/giveaway

review/giveaway
  For some reason I have been eating like a horse.  I am usually not a person who snacks all through the day but for some reason I just have cravings like crazy. (And no I'm not pregnant - got that fixed years ago).  Anyway, I am constantly hungry and I always seem to be tired with no energy.  It may be this beautiful Autumn winter making me so fat and lazy.
  Zone Perfect offered me the chance to review some of their great nutritional bars and it couldn't of happened at a better time.

Gorton's has been known for its fish sticks for years but they really have some other wonderful tasting seafood as well.  The newest food from Gorton's is their great tasting Tillapia fillets.

Burton the Scarecrow Book review/giveaway

review/giveaway


Burton the Scarecrow - Friendship Tales from the Farm series by V.A Boeholt is a delightful book of friends and their fun times in Farmer Green's garden.  This book is the first in the series of friendship tales.  V.A Boeholt relives his years growing up around this kind of life and through it he brings to life Burton the Scarecrow.

review


I received 2 gorgeous bottles of nail polish from the Megan Miller collection.  When I began to do this review I was reading up on the ingredients in this nail polish and what surprised me more was what was NOT in this nail polish.  I can't believe how harmful these ingredients can be and I am so glad they are not in the Megan Miller products.
1) Dibutyl Phthalate or DBP-This chemical is a plasticizer that makes nail polish flexible.  It can do damage to kidneys and the liver. It can be harmful to a unborn fetus and harm the males testes.
2) Tollune- This chemical is used as a solvent.  It can cause liver damage and skin irritation, it can effect the kidneys and cause birth defects.
3) Formaldehyde- assists in the hardening of nails.  It has been linked to cancer and cause watery eyes, labored breathing and headaches.
These are some horrible ingredients that some nail polishes contain.  With Megan Miller products you get a great name polish that gives you confidence and a beautiful look. 
Everything about Megan Miller is great.  The Bottle is custom designed and the Brush is the best on the market. With a 220 strand professional brush.  It puts the polish on with the smoothest coverage.  The Cork gives each bottle a specific look and it is easy to grip.  The Raffia used to make the necktie is 100 % natural.  
The nail products colors look so pretty.  

PinyPon Mini-Doll & Nenuco Doll review

review


On Friday I hosted a Pinypon party sponsored by MommyParties, with my grandaughter and some of her friends.  Pinyon is the newest line of customisable and collectible mini-dolls to hit the toy world.  These little dolls come with so many interchangeable pieces and accessories that you can change your doll up with.
We had  fashion show party with our Pinypon's.  Each girl dresses her doll with the easy, snap in place, interchangeable piece.  Some mini dolls had flowers in their hair or purses on their hips.  Each Pinypon had a name given to them by the girls.  They paraded the dolls out on a make believe runway and each doll turned all around to show off her attire and accessory.  It was darling.

Artesio Soft Touch Electric Pepper Mill and Grinder by Ozeri review

I was allowed to review the Soft Touch Electric Pepper Mill and Grinder from Ozeri.  This very elegant looking electric pepper mill and grinder is so nice and a great accent to any dinner table.

The grinder can be used so easily, just push the button on the battery operated area.  The ceramic grinding mechanism will grind the pepper, or any other spice, to the consistently that you want. Plus, there is a built in light where you can see to use it in any dimly lit area.
