Cor Surf Changing Ponchos are Great!
2020 Holiday Gift Guide , kids , Reviews , women / October 31, 2020

My 9-year-old, Jacob, loves his poncho.  With the changing weather, we haven’t been able to use it at the pool, but I had him try it out, after his bath.  He loves it; I couldn’t get it off of him.  So, once he finally dried, I made him put on clothes.  It fit comfortably, he said, and it was the perfect size.  My daughter, 23 year old, Sarah, loves the Tribal changing Poncho.  She said, “it’s so cool, and I can put it on, before work, to get to my room to change. The adult changing poncho is a great size.  It fits my husband, and he generally wears a XL.  He loves it, when he gets out of the shower, as well.  He doesn’t have to worry about the kids seeing anything.  I mean, he gets changed fairly quick, but it’s added protection. I can’t wait til swimming season, so we can get more, to use out at the pool.  It’ll be a nice addition to the beach towels, and help them stay warm. Made from soft and highly absorbent microfiber that dries fast.  Unlike Cotton Towels, this stays light and soft when wet. Remains ODOR FREE unlike a…

Tummy Drops will help any Tummy Symptom

Tummy Drops are great.  I’ve shared them with family, and friends.  Everyone seems to love them.  From my friends daughter, who is pregnant, to my sister in law, who went on a cruise, etc.  They all say it doesn’t take long to work, and their tummy feels better, with Tummy Drops!  I’ve had Jacob, my 9 year old, try them as well.  For he has tummy issues every now and then.  He said they taste great, and they helped the tummy pain go away.  I used to give him a leading brand, to help his tummy, now I just look for our Tummy Drops. Tummy Drops are all natural, and will help any tummy ache to cease.  I really love them too, as yesterday was the first time I tried them, because it was the first tummy ache I’ve had in a while.  Tummy Drops worked in just a few minutes, and there completely plant based.  I’ll be honest, I was a little intimated at first, thinking it wasn’t going to work, but within 1, 2, 3, they worked wonders.  The Blackberry Ginger are my favorite.  I love blackberry, and it just tastes great, and helps my sensitive tummy! With…

Cubles will relieve the Screentime Dilemma

Cubles are so much fun to make.  My daughter, Sarah, age 23, and son, Jacob, age 9, built them together.  Sarah recently graduated with her Early Education Degree, so it was fun for her to help her brother makes Cubles.  And, Jacob was off the gaming console for a while. Jacob had so much fun putting the tiger, elephant and panda, or Animal Set, together.  He had his big Sister help, but for the most part, he did it alone.  Watching her, of course, put her Unicorn, Pegasus, and Griffin, or Fantasy Pack, together.  The keys go in between the parts, to make them come together.  It was so much fun, watching, and taking photos.  And, my mom watched too! There’s a Grade School Lesson Plan, that comes along with your packet.  These are so cute, when made.  As you can see, from the picture above.  We would make 100 more, if we could.  I may be ordering them, again, just to have them on hand, and to get Jacob off the gaming console. Cubles are a wonderful, fun, and creative activity for all ages. Kinda like origami, kinda like a puzzle, Cubles start flat and fold up into a…

Tranya Rimor Earbuds are Superb!

My daughter, Sarah, age 22, loves her new Earbuds, by Tranya.  The Rimor Earbuds are an absolute treasure, in Sarah’s opinion.  She said the noise is sounded out, the battery life is long, and the multi-function touch sensitive buttons are easy to use.  She will use these earbuds forever, she says. There are several different pairs of rubber tips, so you can choose the one that fits the best in your ears.  This is great, whether you have really small ears, or not, they will fit you. She uses her Rimor Earbuds with her Android, and she loves the sound.  She says she is overall pleased with this product. She uses them all the time, when cooking, or cleaning, and she says the battery life is so long, it’s unbelievable.  She loves that the case is a charger, as well. There’s so many different functions to these Earbuds.  There’s fast, easy, and reliable Bluetooth connection, for one example.  They really are great. She let me use them, for one song, and I loved them so much, I will end up buying myself a pair.  I’ve never had Earbuds, because I don’t like things in my ears, but the buds fit…

Fly, Fly Again ~ STEAM Learning Book Tour ~ January 10, 2020

I really enjoyed reading Fly, Fly Again with my son, yesterday.  They have a STEAM class, at school, so this was perfect for us to read.  He’s 8, so he would read a page, then I would read a page.  It’s such a cute book, about trying again.  Jenny really dreams of flying, and she meets others along her journey, that help her out.

Wellements Organic Baby Medicines
2019 Summer Gift Guide , kids , Reviews / April 30, 2019

I love Wellements Organics, and have been using it for years.  My little one used to use the Gripe Water.  Whenever he was fussing, we would give it to him.  Now that he’s a little older, I have passing these products on to some new parents.  Their impression is just as strong as mine.  Wellements Organics works wonders for your child.  All products were new in box, when handed to the new parents. The Wellements Organic Gripe Water is so fabulous, and it’s for new babies.  When they are fussy, just give them a 1/2 teaspoon, and you’ll see the difference.  We used to put it in our son’s bottle.  He’s suck that bottle down, and he was then pleasant. There’s  Nighttime Formula of the Gripe Water also.  It’s really effective, when used properly. Wellements makes an Organic Baby Chest & Foot Rub, that’s perfect for any little guy/girl, with a cold.  There’s no menthol is this rub, so it’s safe, along with Non GMO.  We loved this for Jacob, as well.  And, I’m sure the parents we are passing it to, will love it just as much. What makes this product so wonderful are the scents of eucalyptus and lavender…

2019 Easter Gift Guide , kids , Reviews / March 27, 2019

Yesterday was my son’s Annual Spring Party, at School.  I used Welch’s Fruit Snacks, for Easter, as a snack.  They went over great.  The kids all loved them.  With 28 treats in every box, we had enough for the entire class.  We had so much fun, checking out the figures, and flavors.  We even made a game out of it.  You know, who had the most bunnies, or chicks, or reds, or oranges?  It was a snack.  These children are in Second Grade, and so smart!  And, they know what’s good for them! Welch’s are great for any age though, I even caught my 21 year old trying to steal her brother’s snacks.  It was a hoot.  She loves Welch’s too.

It’s Not Hansel And Gretel Children’s Book
2019 Easter Gift Guide , kids , Reviews / February 27, 2019

I love reading It’s Not Hansel and Gretel, to my 7 year old.  I love that the ending is happy, and it’s a “Happily Ever After” moment.  I never would’ve thought when I started to read the book, for the first time, that it would be a happy ending, because of “Hansel And Gretel” in the title.  But, it’s not your average Hansel and Gretel story.  It’s much more, and fun to read. Josh Funk had a great idea, when writing this book, that is now sold on Amazon.  It’s truly a masterpiece.  Josh takes books, and does his own twist with them.  Check out his site, and follow him on Twitter @joshfunkbooks.  You’ll find some more truly amazing books, along with It’s Not Hansel And Gretel. The Illustrations are fantastic!  Edwardian Taylor did a wonderful job.  I love how colorful, and meaningful they are. It’s Not Hansel And Gretel will take your young child’s mind off of those video games, and school work, even if just for 10 minutes.  They will feel so happy, at least my son does, after reading such a wonderful book. Jacob is in second grade, and sometimes, the weight of school gets to him.  I’ll…

Get Ready To Sparkle This Summer
2019 Summer Gift Guide , kids , Reviews , women / February 17, 2019

Spring, and Summer, are just around the corner.  And, I love the new line of Sparkly Sun Screen Lotion from Sunshine And Glitter.  I’ve never felt pretty.  My 21 year old, daughter, loves it too.  She took a bottle for herself.  This stuff is magnificent.  I will continue to use it, until I die.  Even though it’s too cold in Pennsylvania to go outside with it on, I’ve tried it, and it leaves me feeling so silky, and ready for a tan. I gifted a bottle, to a friend, for her little girl, and she said that she won’t let her wipe it off.  Every time she bathes her, she wants more on.  I love it too, especially the Beach Gypsy SPF 30+.  The Beach Gypsy leaves you all glittery, and makes you feel so silky smooth. I can’t wait to go to Lake Erie, this Summer, and wear these at Presque Isle.  I’ll be so shimmering, and fancy.  My daughter says she can’t wait either.  We will be the cutest ones there. Sunshine and Glitter (Beach Gypsy) is Water Resistant, up to 80 Minutes, UVA/UVB Protection is important, as well, and they provide it.  It’s also Eco-Friendly, biodegradable glitter, and NO…

Sparkling Ice is all new

Sparkling Ice has a new formula, featuring naturally sourced colors and flavors, in addition to an updated logo and packaging design.  My son loves Sparkling Ice, and now he loves it more, with the naturally sourced colors, and flavors.  He says it tastes great!  My 21 year old, daughter, loves the taste as well.  They fight over who gets to drink the last bottle all the time.  I can’t keep Sparkling Ice in the house.  And, they love all the flavors, not one more than another. Over the course of two years, Sparkling Ice conducted extensive marketing research and sensory testing with over 8000 consumers. This consumer driven project resulted in Sparkling Ice updating their flavorful, zero sugar sparkling water to now include colors from natural sources. With this new formulation, Sparkling Ice is proud to be one of the first brands to successfully transition to natural colors while maintaining the vibrant look and long shelf life that Sparkling Ice is known for. You will love Sparkling Ice, whether you’ve had it before or not.  It tastes great.  My favorite flavor is the Sparkling Black Raspberry.  It’s delicious.  Jacob, and Sarah, will drink any of the flavors, as will I,…
