MOVE OUT OF THE WAY METHOD SOMETHING NEW IS IN TOWN!


I found the best cleaning products that are really safe for my home and the environment. Their products are potent yet not harsh. An added bonus is that after using them, you will not have that chemical smell lingering around your home. I also love that if you get some on your skin, it does not make it raw. The lemon scent in some of their products is intoxicating, and trust me, you will want to continue to clean more and more! Many of you readers only know of Method products and Seventh Generation but all of my green moms I would love for you to go over to the Ecostore

This is how they describe their products "Our eco-friendly, plant-based household cleaning products are as effective as the leading supermarket brands, and our body and baby care ranges are gentle on your skin and are simply beautiful to use. Our pet care products let you spoil your pets with our nourishing, rich blends of ingredients and show them how much you care by reducing their exposure to unhealthy chemicals.


All of our products are made from plant- and mineral-based ingredients, free of toxic chemicals that bring people closer to nature with non-toxic, environmentally safe solutions that also help to reduce our carbon footprint.

Our products also help to ensure value for the dollar for our customers. We know it can be expensive to buy natural or organic products, but we’ve found a way to safely super-concentrate our formulations. Our super-concentrates means that a little really does go a long way - saving you money by cutting down significantly on cost peruse."


Also, for my parents out their Ecostore features products for you and your little ones. I love the variety that Ecostore carries. I like that you can do a one-stop-shop for all of your favorite green products for you and your house. If you are a green parent, please head over to the Ecostore and find out why I love the shop so much!

Bear Feet Giveaway



A little bit about Bear Feet is that all of its products are proudly made in the USA. Bear Feet's manufacturing, design, and marketing facilities are all based in Texas. The soles on Bear Feet are made from the sap of the Hevea tree. The rubber is tapped in a process similar to maple sugaring by doing so; it's preserving the life of the tree. Bear Feet also believe in using as many natural or organic products as possible. Bear Feet does not produce chemical wastes, they recycle their rubber scrap, donate their 2nds and scrap leather to charity, and keep a low stock since their products are made to order. Bear Feet just wants to leave the planet like the way they found it but even better :) Gotta love that!



Up for grabs are a pair of Bear Feet brown scalloped edge on pink sandals.

Easiest Way for Your Little Ones to Learn Piano




My Kiwi always loved to smash on the piano and really try to learn. I thought of it, hey let her make her own music. I love how once she saw it is was absolutely curious about how to play. Her grandfather told her when you get a little older we will get your lesson so you can play music for me. Well, how about you give your child experience. Trust me, it's effortless by using Piano for Preschoolers.



I am glad that Piano for Preschoolers gives you an easy to follow the book. Also, they give you a color chart to place above the keys so your child can follow the colored notes easily. The book contains 17 songs to get your little one started. In the kit, you get a cd with all the songs included. My suggestion is if you want your little ones to learn piano and have fun while doing it head over to Piano for Preschoolers and get your kit today! I am glad to have tried this product because it was fun and it brought the Kiwi and me closer :)

Do You Want A One Stop Shop for the Entire Family?

I found the best website ever for one-stop shopping, and I wanted to share with my readers where to go. I found this place for toddler stuff, and it has become my new best friend. I am always looking for the latest and most exceptional products, and it has it all. I have been looking for a new car seat for my Kiwi, and I love that it gives you a guide to help you make the best decision for your own needs.

The best thing ever is I love to be up on my fashion, and I always love a great pair of jeans. This shop is continually following all the trends that are happening out there. One their page, they have a seasonal forecast, following directions, designer fashions, special sizes, find an outfit, create a wardrobe, and my all-time favorite eco finds. What more could one fashionista need in a site? Seriously!!!!!

No worries, Dad, they have all the information on all the latest and greatest gadgets for you as well. They have electronics, computers, office and automotive. So parents out there, please take a peek over at this shop for all of your shopping needs!


Great Place for Organic Clothes


I have searched and searched for a company that offered simplicity in their organic clothes. It is like having that black top that goes with everything. I wanted to find a company that I could take their products and pair it with anything in Kiwi's wardrobe. I found one that is simple yet very cute. I love so many of their products, they have cute rompers and tops for two-year-olds. Wanna know the company I am talking about? I happen to be B Nature.


Want to know how they are green? Well, let me tell you. B Nature incorporates 100% organic, and color grew cotton grown under Fair Trade conditions. If you do not know what Fairtrade is, it is where farmers and producers earn living wages and maintain excellent working conditions. So they make sure everyone is respected, and the products are made of genuine quality. Also, they use organic cotton to leave out insecticides and pesticides in your child's clothes. A great bonus they use methods to minimize any impact on our environment. It's always great to see a company trying to leave the environment the same if not better from when they found it.

In their shop, they make it easy to shop for your friend that is expecting. I have three ladies I work with that are pregnant and trust me this year is a baby boom. I don't know what's in the water, but boy oh boy, everyone is getting pregnant. In B Nature's shop, they have gift sets already prepared for you. Also, they package those gift sets in recycled paper. Let's just say they love our planet, and they do not want to clutter it up.


So mothers head over to B Nature to snag up those super soft organic items that are essential in every little one's wardrobe. I highly recommend their products to all of my green moms and mothers leaning towards being green.

Boogie Wipes Giveaway and Review



It's so sad, but my Kiwi has the worst cold ever. I swear it seems like every time I turn around, she has another bug. Ughhh! My nieces and nephews' noses are running like faucets lately as well. YIKES, big YIKES. I thought to myself, what in the world could help them? The regular Kleenex after awhile just turns their noses red no matter how soft they are. Well, I found the best thing for their noses. I bet you are wondering exactly what it is. I found Boogie Wipes. Ahhhh, a parent's best friend for those pesky boogies.



I was lucky to do a review of Boogie Wipes, and let's just say I am super glad to have done one. It not could have come at a more perfect time. I love the Boogie Wipes with minty vapors because I do not have to rub that slime all over my daughter's chest. I just wiped her nose with it, and she started to breathe better. I am glad she wasn't annoyed by it either. The wipes are super soft and smooth on the skin. They also offer a variety of scents.



The other Boogie Wipes scents are great if your child is suffering from allergies, and you do not want them sniffing menthol. They have a grape scent and fresh scent available in a 30 count pack, or they have boxes with 10 individual packages that can easily slide in a purse or wallet. I love the single ones personally because they are so small I can just put it in my pocket for when we are out shopping.

So do you want to try out Boogie Wipes for your little one's nose? Please enter today for your chance to win one 30 count fresh scent and one 30 count grape scent.

The see kai run shoes are well crafted and have such style. The insoles are made for comfort and the rubber on the bottom are flexible for those little feet. I also love the little saying on the bottom of the see kai run shoes. Its super cute when the little ones walk the saying is placed everywhere.
