REVIEW: Green Toys Race Car
December 3, 2015 8:34 pm | by

It’s that time of year again! And the most wonderful time, if that! I don’t know about you, but I really enjoy holiday shopping and snagging a few different things I know my little guy will love. With that being said I always try to shop as eco-friendly as possible. So many toys on the market are made with harsh chemicals and non-recyclable goods. Knowing that I can fill my little guy’s stocking with environmentally-friendly options always makes me feel better, an one toy brand that I’ve grown to absolutely love is Green Toys. Here’s why I adore this wonderful brand —

REVIEW: bumGenius 5.0 Cloth Diapers
November 5, 2015 5:52 pm | by

The geniuses behind bumGenius have delivered another home run when it comes cloth diapering. The new and improved bumGenius original 5.0 is PERFECT — for my family. Let me explain. First off, the 5.0 is easier to stuff, thanks to the updated elastic that’s been developed exclusively for cloth diapers. The updated suedecloth adds a bit of stretchiness to the diaper for an improved fit on baby. This is especially helpful if you’ve got a squirmy little one who loves to wiggle their way out of the diaper. The new suedecloth also creates a trimmer fit across your baby’s back, so say

Review: Lifefactory Glass Storage Containers
October 25, 2015 8:43 am | by

Packing snacks when we go places is a must with my little guy. He’s a very energetic, growing toddler who’s always ready to eat so I pack a little something to take along anywhere we go. Plus, I don’t have to stop somewhere to grab a bite to eat or have to opt for fast food. I’ve become quite picky with what and how I pack his snacks and, after multiple incidents of plastic tubs either cracking or leaking, I knew there had to be something else out there that would work for our needs. I was a huge fan of

Review: BumGenius Liquid Laundry Detergent
August 27, 2015 7:52 pm | by

If bumGenius laundry detergent had a #1 fan, it would be me. When I first started cloth diapering,I didn’t think it was necessary to use laundry detergent that was formulated for cloth diapers. Instead, I just used my homemade version. As a result, I would get so frustrated by the constant cloth diaper leaks. Then, I used a store-bought laundry soap, thinking it would help with the leaks. It didn’t. At that point, I educated myself on how to properly wash cloth diapers and found that cloth diaper detergent wasn’t just a marketing technique. Since these detergents are free of the additives that often clog

Review: Mrs B’s Handmade Soap
August 13, 2015 7:20 pm | by

I received a few different baby soaps as gifts before my daughter was born. I didn’t put too much thought into bathing her — beyond the fact that it needed to happen regularly — so I just used the first thing I opened. The soap I was using worked fine, but then I received a bar of Mrs. B’s Calm Baby Soap. I was unsure about using bar soap at first, however, the very first time I used it I was hooked. I just swirl it around in her washcloth a couple times and the lather is so rich and smooth.

Review: Aden + Anais Shampoo & Bubble Bath
July 30, 2015 9:31 pm | by

Aden + Anais makes some of my favorite baby products. I not only use their stuff on my children, but I often buy aden + anais to give as shower gifts. So you can imagine that when the shampoo and bubble bath were released, I knew I’d love both.  The scent for both the bubble bath and shampoo is sweet sandalwood. It is very light and earthy, and I felt it was perfect for my 1 and 3 year old. My baby has severe eczema so I am very wary of soaps and lotions on her skin, but I was pleasantly surprised after using

Review: California Baby Sunscreen and Bug Repellant
July 14, 2015 5:49 pm | by

  Summer is here, and you know what that means! Ample time to enjoy all kinds of fun outdoor activities: hiking, swimming, watching fireworks, attending parties, picnics, and summer camp, and of course, plenty of unstructured outdoor play! Using sunscreen on a daily basis is SO important to protect your family’s skin from sun damage. But it’s also SO important to me to use a product without a lot of chemicals, so it’s safe for skin in other ways. We protect our skin with California Baby Sunblock, which provides UVA/UVB protection, is PABA-free and hypoallergenic. The mineral-based lotion is super

Review: Lunchskins Reusable Snack Bags
March 19, 2015 8:05 pm | by

Why pack your child’s lunch? There are so many good reasons! I do it to save money and to make sure my kids are eating a good, healthy lunch each day. There are other advantages, too — like providing your child with a greater variety of foods, and (especially if your child has food sensitivities) guaranteeing control over what they eat. I also feel it’s important to create as little waste as possible. Instead of using a Ziploc-style baggie for their sandwich, fruit, veggie, and chips (which could easily be at least FOUR bags per day!), why not try Lunchskins

Review: Aden + Anais Classic Crib Sheet
February 23, 2015 5:17 pm | by

We are HUGE fans of the aden + anais swaddle blankets and have used them for about 2 1/2 years now. I think they are one of the best purchases I made before having my little one and now I always gift them to my mama-to-be friends. When I learned that aden + anais also made crib sheets I was super excited to try them out. And of course, like the blankets, the crib sheets are just as amazing! Here’s why we love the aden + anais crib sheets and why they are a MUST for your little ones crib or toddler
