Blommi - Part 2

LeapFrog: Math Adventure to the Moon I was lucky enough, to have the opportunity, to review the recently released Math Adventure to the Moon DVD, from LeapFrog. The DVD is intended for children from 3-6 years of age. My daughter is a couple months shy of 3 years and has developmental delays, associated with autism, yet she enjoyed the show immensely. I feel she was engrossed enough in the program, that she absorbed at least some of the material. While this DVD is produced for...

Wordless Wednesday – A Great Day to Get Dirt...

Monday was an unusually warm day for February in New England. We have full sun in our back yard, and temperatures were well in the 60’s. My daughter thoroughly enjoyed getting to play in her...

Steaz Iced Teaz Review...

Steaz is a Fair Trade company which produces 3 different lines of organic ready to drink teas. I received a sampler six pack of Steaz Iced Teaz a few weeks ago, from a promotion they did with Amy at ResourcefulMommy. The pack contained two each of: Green Tea with Peach, Green Tea with Blueberry Pomegranate Acai and White Tea with Lime & Pomegranate. I am not generally a big fan of ready to drink iced teas,...

The Rhode Island Spring Flower & Garden Show...

I went to The Rhode Island Spring Flower & Garden Show this afternoon with my husband and our young daughter. Regretfully, I forgot my camera at home. I would have had a very hard time getting any larger scenes anyway, as the show was absolutely mobbed. The unusually warm weather, must have brought out the crowds. The shows theme this year was “Timeless Gardens”, and featured gardens as flashbacks to...

Country Bob’s All Purpose Sauce: Review ...

I recently received two bottles of Country Bob’s All Purpose Sauce to try out. Although the sauce is labeled all purpose, I was skeptical. I didn’t need to be. I first realized that the sauce had gone over well, after seeing one of the bottles was about a third empty. Apparently, my husband had used it on his steak tips a day or so earlier. Mr. Fussy had liked it. Last night, both my husband and I used...

Wordless Wednesday 2/17...

I was going through some old pics and this guy was just too cool. It was taken in the Rain Forest exhibit at Roger Williams Park Zoo, Providence,...

Sickness to Smiles: $500 Photo Contest...

JuiceBoxJungle & Similasan wanted to hear about what I’ve missed due to children’s illnesses. I really can’t say I’ve missed much of anything. Up until the last month or so, my daughter has barely had a sniffle. She now goes to a pre-preschool program twice a week, and has picked up a couple bugs off her little pals. Although I haven’t missed anything due to her illnesses, she...

The New Rainbow Brite Doll: Review & Giveaway...

Rainbow Brite is back! She and her friends Moonglow and Tickled have had a makeover, but they still have the same positive messages of hope, kindness and courage, to share with children. The 10″ dolls and their horse companions, are now available at Target and ToysRUs. Just yesterday afternoon, I received Rainbow Brite herself to review for this post. You will notice there is no in-box picture. My 32 month...

Dapper Snappers Review & Giveaway (Closed)...

If you have a child who is lean for their height, you have dealt with the frustration of finding pants that fit properly. My toddler daughter has a tall and lean build, so I have experience in this area. Toddler belts can be cumbersome for children who are in the midst of developing potty skills, so they are out. While I have found a couple brands that make interior adjustable waistbands, selection can be ...
