Thank you to PNEO for sending product in exchange for my honest opinion in this review. We've owned (and LOVED) our True Growth True Tot Tower for over a year now. There are SO many things my daughter has used it for. She loves to help me cook and bake, she sometimes uses it when eating at the kitchen table, uses it when playing play doh or slime at the table, when doing crafts, and more. She uses it almost every day. Now, our little guy is one-year-old and is able to stand on his own. Read more [...]

I received product to facilitate this post.  As always, all opinions are my own. While I actually live where the snow flies, I know many people take trips to find that white fluffy stuff.  So no matter how you come into contact with it, this post will be for you as I'm sharing all the great items you'll want to have for when you're around snow! Things To Pack For A Fun-Filled Snow Trip With Kids I love summer because it's so much easier to be outside.  Just walk out the door and go!  But Read more [...]

I was sent a pair of prescription glasses for review. All opinions are my own. When you're dependent on glasses for ordinary aspects of daily life like driving or reading, it really maks sense to have a back up pair. What if your first pair gets lost or ruined? It wouldn't be good to have to wait for a new pair to be created while you walk around barely able to see for a week or more! I've always known that and I have been dependent on my glasses since middle school. Ryan has been dependent on Read more [...]

Thanks to Primal Life Organics for sending me these products. As always, all opinions are my own. About a year ago I switched all of my oral care over to Primal Life Organics. I started using their tooth powder, gum serum, and charcoal ion toothbrush, and I have loved their products ever since! Since it's been a year and I've used up my original products, I figured it was time to check out new products they have to offer, as well as some of my original favorites. When I heard that Primal Read more [...]

I received product to facilitate this post.  As always, all opinions are my own. Have you heard about Chalkola products yet?  This brand offers a variety of chalk markers, chalk boards, and art supples.  As a mom, I love that all of their products are non-toxic, xylene free, and odor free.  But also important is the fact that they are SO MUCH FUN!  Definitely not just for kids, all ages love doodling, drawing, and creating with Chalkola. What Is Chalkola? In a world of dim, dusty chalk, Read more [...]

I keep hearing about CBD related products the last several months. At first, I thought it was because I live in Michigan where we voted about legalizing cannabis products and it passed. However, I've realized that it actually has nothing to do with Michigan or with the legalization that happened here. CBD is hemp-derived and does not contain THC, so these CBD products don't have any psychoactive elements (meaning they won't get you high). However, CBD products without THC are believed by many Read more [...]

There are affiliate links in this post.  As we head into winter, I know we need to stock up on natural products to keep our family healthy, and remedies to aid us in getting over things more quickly when we inevitably pick something up. With kids, there's no way to completely avoid illness. However, after adding Earthley products to our lives last year, we had the healthiest winter yet! I wanted to share some of my favorite Earthley products as we head into their winter remedies sale! Before Read more [...]

I received product from Shred Dog to facilitate this post.  As always, all opinions are my own. I hate to admit it but the weather has already begun to change here in Minnesota.  Instead of a scorching August where beach days are a must, I've been bringing my sweatshirt everywhere I go.  The nights are already getting cooler and as kids prepare to head back to school, jackets will be necessary.  So because of the weather, two of my kiddos are helping me test out some Shred Dog gear and we are Read more [...]

I received the TASER Self-Defense StrikeLight to facilitate this post.  As always, all opinions are my own. With all the incidents being reported these days, being pro-active about personal safety is extremely important.  Especially for the young students in your life.   Eager freshman, seasoned seniors, and bustling graduate students alike will soon be adjusting to college campus life.  While this is an exciting time for everyone with all the changes and upcoming events.  The reality is that Read more [...]

Thanks to 365Canvas for sending me this beautiful canvas. As always, all opinions are my own. There is a paid link in this post. My parents celebrated their 35th wedding anniversary this year, and I wanted to find them a beautiful canvas print to showcase their amazing commitment to each other. I have two siblings so we decided to go together on a sunset cruise and dinner for them, as well as a stunning canvas from 365Canvas. 365Canvas offers a large variety of personalized canvases and it Read more [...]
