Babes and Kids Review

Red Robin, Etch a Sketch Contest It’s always fun to enter contests that have a little bit of a twist on them. It makes them more challenging and lets your creative juices really flow. Red Robin is doing just that with their Etch a Sketch Contest. When I think of Red Robin, great burgers automatically…

Family Movie Night & The Jensen Project Family Movie night is back! If you tuned into Secrets of the Mountain a few months back, thank you! Because there was such a great viewership on P&G and Walmart’s first movie, Family Movie night will be happening again in an all new movie called The Jensen Project….

And the winner is…. Heather says: July 12, 2010 at 2:41 pm (Edit) “Circle of Life”, you know. Congrats Heather!  Watch for an e-mail from me. One of the prizes from the Gillette Fusion ProGlide Razor giveaway was not claimed! That means I am giving it away in a live giveaway! Up for grabs is…

Learning Games Games are always fun for kids to play. When they are learning games, it’s a definite bonus. Not too long ago, I reviewed Sky High Scoops, which was a count and seek electronic game. Another great game from Learning Resources is Fruit Stand Avalanche. About the Game From Learning Resources: Careful, don’t spill…

Camping & Backpacking Did you know that June was National Camping month? I certainly wasn’t aware until this year, but think that it’s cool that camping has it’s own month dedicated to it. I grew up in Idaho surrounded by the mountains. I had parents that loved the outdoors and instilled that love in all…

Last summer, I reviewed a really fun pan by Teflon. It was a flip it pancake pan with a fun patriotic design. Since we are coming up on Independence Day soon, you get another chance to win a pan! Below is my review from last year. We still really like the pan a year later,…

Healthy Snacks On The Go Summer means on the go, right? At least for us it does. And because we are on the go so much, I almost always have snacks and bottled water for the boys, especially if we are planning an entire afternoon out. Costco offers great summer snacks with health benefits in…

Bringing Baby Home When you bring a new baby home, you want the best for them. However, if you are a first time parent, there can be a lot of questions as to what products are best for your baby. I remember having this feeling not that long ago. Baby skin can be incredibly sensitive,…

Road Trip It’s summer! You know what that means right? The kids are out of school and families are gearing up to go on summer road trips. Although our summer road trip isn’t until August, I’m excited to go somewhere with family, and explore new places. While road trips can be fun, they can also…

Father’s Day Father’s Day is just a week away. Have you thought about what you are going to get your dad/husband? I really want to take my boys to get something for their dad, but we don’t have a huge budget spend a lot. It’s nice to get dad something practical as well. At only…

Up for a Challenge? I’m always up for a little challenge, whatever it may be. The past few weeks, I have been participating in a challenge. The challenge is to do all of our laundry in cold water using Seventh Generation laundry detergent, and line dry. Did I just say line dry? Yep, that’s right….

Educational Games & Touch Screens It’s amazing how kids are able to catch on, navigate and use electronic devices anymore. Chandler is constantly trying to sneak my phone which has a touch screen so that he can play games on it. While I don’t mind when he plays games on the Wii, online, or on…

Food Should Taste Good Food should taste good, right? I know I’m a food lover, maybe that’s why I have to workout a lot to keep it off. And to be honest, a lot of the food that I think tastes good, doesn’t make me feel so good afterward because it lacks quality ingredients that…

Cupcake Onesies Love, love Baby Bunch. You may have seen the Baby Bouquet or Nests in previous posts that I’ve written, but they have much more to offer. How about something that sounds AND looks scrumptious? Look no further than these adorable Cupcake Onesies. Like other Baby Bunch products, these are definitely great quality. There…

Learning Games Right around the time that Chandler turned 4, he started getting really into games. He had a matching game that he loved to play over and over so I started investing in some other classic games. I think he would play them half the day if he could. While it’s fun to play…

Recycling How are you at recycling? I used to be horrible at it, but I’m starting to make little changes, and little changes add up. A few months ago, we got a recycling bin close to our house. It is for all paper products. I thought it would be a great start and had a…
