By popular demand we have added a robe to our Cool-jams collection. This adorable wicking robe features kimono styling with sexy black lace accents. It's super lightweight,compact, quick drying and wrinkle resistant making it the perfect robe for travel or temperature regulation. Our Cool-jams fabric has a super soft cotton like feel with wicking ability that never washes out. In fact, the wicking action is scientifically woven into the fabric itself.

Potty Cover Review & giveaway

This reivew is for all of us moms who it seems like our children like to try out every bathroom they come to. This review is from Potty Cover.
PottyCover is a disposable toilet seat cover for children that covers the sides and the front of the toilet, to keep away germs at public rest-rooms. It is made of non-woven fabric coated with a layer of plastic, creating a waterproof barrier between the toilet and the child. This product has the largest coverage of all seat covers on the market and for added convenience, each seat cover is individually packaged in a small, easy to open bag that makes it super easy to always keep one or two in a purse or a back pocket.

Using a public rest-room with a young child could be very stressful, but with PottyCovers the whole family can feel safe knowing that even at the filthiest bathrooms they will be protected from germs. We designed this product for kids, but it has become a must-have travel item for many of our adult customers.

A pack of PottyCover sells for $5.99 and it is available on Amazon, Ebay, all Buy Buy Baby stores around the country and at select Bed Bath & Beyond stores.

Aden + Anais Dream Blanket Review

aden + anais


This is a great review for baby and children from Aden + Anais.





The practice of swaddling goes back nearly as far as human history, itself. The oldest archaeological evidence of mothers swaddling their babies begins in 4000 B.C. with the migrating peoples of ancient central Asia. The ancient Greeks and Romans swaddled. There are even biblical references to the practice.

Swaddling’s ability to soothe and calm babies has been known to mothers around the world for countless generations. But while the evidence of its benefits has been clear to women for thousands of years and across every continent, today we can turn to science for proof that swaddling is one of the most gentle, effective, and beneficial practices for mothers and their children.

In 2002, the medical journal Pediatrics published a study that explained why babies who are swaddled sleep more peacefully by preventing spontaneous movements (called reflex motion) from waking them up continually during the night. The same year, the Journal of Applied Physiology wrote that swaddled infants stay in REM sleep (the most restorative, deepest sleep) longer than those who were not. There is growing evidence every year that swaddling may indirectly help prevent SIDS, as well.

Swaddling is said to be as familiar to babies as it is to their moms because it recreates the secure and cozy feeling of the womb -- and using swaddles made of natural cotton muslin only enhances that blissful feeling. Muslin is a finely-woven breathable fabric believed to have originated in Bangladesh during the Middle Ages. It's delicate, yet durable weave, makes the fabric stretchy, and therefore ideal for swaddling, as the natural give" allows the blanket to be tucked snuggly around a baby without being overly restrictive.

The lightweight muslin also permits air to circulate around the baby's body, while still providing comfort and warmth without the worry that the baby may overheat in moderate weather. Cotton muslin is also a workhorse fabric, in that wraps woven from this natural fiber stands up to repeated washings only becoming softer -- and better -- with age.

Of course, all the scientific evidence in the world is no substitute for the experience of millions of Mothers through uncountable generations: that swaddling in muslin is one of the most loving, gentle, restorative acts a mother can perform for her child.
 I was sent one of their Dream Blankets. I picked their Jungle Jam Dream Blanket which retails for $49.95.
 Single 100% cotton muslin blanket. Unique in the marketplace, aden + anais Dream Blankets™ feature soft and breathable muslin cotton, which provides plenty of warmth without overheating. This plush blanket is generously-sized (47” x 47”) and uses four layers of fabric, making it ideal for snuggling.

How do you make sweet dreams? Start with natural, gentle muslin the fabric mothers around the world have used to care for their children for generations. Add colorful modern prints that are designed exclusively by aden + anais. Add a favorite teddy and that's it. Sweet dreams come easily with the dream blanket.

I love these they also have other types of blankets, sleeping bags, burp cloths and many more items.

Exerderm Review

This is a review for anyone who suffers from Eczema, dermatitis, and dry sensitive skin. This review is from Exerderm.
We believe that exederm is a simply sensible approach for anyone with eczema, dermatitis and dry or sensitive skin
Use products with less irritants and go "Ultra Sensitive"
With exederm it's possible to gently cleanse, to deeply moisturize and get smoother and healthier skin - without using unnecessary chemicals.
The average person can use up to 100 different chemicals on their skin before leaving home in the morning - just in our daily skincare routines.
We wash, we scrub, we buy soaps, washes, cleansers, toners, shampoos, conditioners and on and on and on ...
Is it any wonder that millions of people suffer from dry, sensitive and reactive skin.
It's time for less ...
exederm raises the bar for hypoallergenic and sensitive skincare
Not only do we avoid common chemical irritants like parabens but we also avoid common internet irritants
- affordable pricing
- no hidden 'clubs' or long term commitments

- genuine money back guarantee


I was sent two of their products for review. First is their Baby eczema wash which retails $12.99 for 8oz.

 

No Fragrance
No Color or Dyes
No Parabens
No Lanolin
No SLS or SLES
No Propylene Glycol
No Formaldehyde
No Phthalates


  • Gently cleanses delicate skin
  • Non-drying and soap free
  • Avoids sodium laureth sulfate
  • Ideal for children of all ages
  • Ultra sensitive non-irritating formula

  • The next item is their Baby eczema cream which retails for $14.99 for 4oz.
    Pediatricians and dermatologists agree that hydration is critically important for childhood eczema, dermatitis or dry skin.
    But for those with sensitive skin, this can be a difficult time as many baby eczema creams and moisturizers can irritate. Too many people rely on trial and error to find a a suitable baby eczema cream or moisturizer.
    This is the best lotion that i have ever tried. I used this on my severe dry hands and the cracked flaky skin is gone. My husband is also a painter and his hands are so dry and this worked great for treating his hands. My son also has eczema so bad on his hands that they will crack and bleed if not hydrated and we are in love with this cream. I will no longer use anything else. It is unscented so no worries there. They also have many other products and I hope to try other ones soon.

    Boba

    I get excited about Boba products and a few months ago I posted a review on their organic baby carrier. So today's review is on their Boba Pack which retails for $100.00 and comes in 5 colors.

    Boba Pack

    The new Boba Pack is the perfect solution for busy families – this over-the-shoulder bag may be easily attached to most baby carriers and strollers.


    The Boba Pack was designed with busy babywearing families in mind! This unique bag may be used in a number of ways:

    Use the adjustable shoulder strap to wear the Boba Pack as a messenger bag! If you’re using the new Boba Carrier 3G, use the new shoulder strap holder feature to keep the strap in place while on the go!

    Attach easily to almost any baby carrier or stroller by using the adjustable straps on the sides of the Boba Pack.
    This bag features 10 pockets, including an insulated bottle holder, as well as a coordinating wet bag to make your life easier.

     
    Available in five coordinating colors to perfectly match your Boba Carrier 3G!



    I love the colors that the pack comes in and I choose Tweet to review. This also comes with a strap and can also be used as a regular diaper bag.
    There are alot of pockets and even comes with a small wet bag.
    

    There is plenty of room in this multi function bag. I just love it and cant wait to put it to good use. I love all of Boba's products and hope to review for them again soon.
