Plump & Tasty

[ 691 ] August 12, 2010

Tyson Chicken Fun NuggetsMy children LOVE chicken nuggets. It’s safe to say that at least once a week they are eating them. When I buy nuggets I really try to buy the ones that are the best tasting and most nutritious. I don’t like fillers so the 100% all natural is an added benefit. Tyson has some very fun foods that are child appealing! Fun Nuggets are one of them foods! They are shaped like dinos and the kids really really love them! They play while eating, but it’s still fun none the less. The traditional chicken nuggets are also very good. I love that they are very rich flavored. I also love that there is no pile of grease on the pan when I am done cooking them. Tyson Chicken Nuggets

When you pair nuggets with your favorite dipping sauce they are even more pleasurable to your taste buds. Not only do the kids love them, I do. They are easy and quick to cook. With summer here I am all about products that are quick and that don’t require much time to cook. The less time I can have the stove on in the heat the better, but I also love the fact that they are quick. Summer time means the kids are pretty mobile and don’t like to sit or wait to too long for anything, so finger foods are PERFECT for that! Every child loves chicken nuggets!!

Fun & Appealing Oral Care

[ 4 ] August 11, 2010

Colgate KidsOral care is very important in our house. As a child I rarely made a visit to the dentist. My teeth later in life suffered because of that. I’ve had a lot of work done and even some cosmetic dentistry. As a result of this, I knew when I had my children I was going to be very proactive in their health and dental care. To this date they go to the dentist every 6 months. We rely on some great products to help maintain their care and keep them CAVITY FREE!

Colgate has been a brand that we are very happy with and continue to use regularly. The kids love the special characters on the toothbrushes and they come in so many different types. The spin brushes are personally our favorite. Dentists recommend them and I think they help kiddos conquer the spots that are a little harder to reach and make sure they are brushing in circles, which is recommended. I was {actually I still am} a HUGE fan of the different youth care toothbrushes and products for the kids. They are perfect for smaller mouths!

The children’s toothpastes are also nice. They work great, but I love that the flavors are more kid appropriate. It’s hard getting a little one to use minty toothpaste. They don’t like the feeling. I want them to get used to and keep brushing though. Colgate products have been amazing for that! They have several different toothpastes for kids and even some licensed character toothpastes! Overall, I love that Colgate Kids is so appealing to the kids. It makes asking them and expecting them to brush MUCH easier!

BUY: You can buy Colgate Kids at major retailers including Wal-Mart, Target, Walgreens, CVS and more!

NETWORK: You can also find Colgate on Facebook & Twitter for updates and information!

Hey! That’s Mine!

[ 172 ] August 9, 2010

Part of back to school that I dislike the most it having to write names on EVERY thing! This year my daunting chore is being made so much easier. Label Daddy has sent us some labels to label all of my daughter’s school supplies. We chose the Back to School Pack. This package contains: 1 Bag Tag, 45 Extra Small, 30 Small, 20 Medium, 10 Large, 18 Mini shoe labels, 8 Shoe and 4 Zipper Tags.

Label Daddy

Since we had a few extra labels, I used them to label things that are always getting lost around the house! These labels are nicely laminated. They won’t smear or lose the writing so this ensures everything labeled will remain labeled. When we went to order there are a variety of different colors that we could chose from for our label. This is nice because you can get them in your favorite color, school colors, or a simple color that matches everything. We went with pink, because that is my daughters favorite color! Then you get to pick an icon or picture from their library to add. They have many different styles of icons too. There surely is something for every boy, girl, baby or adult. You can also chose to leave the icon off if you wish! The smallest of the labels were GREAT for the Nintendo DS games, but I also used them on her markers and highlighters. They were PERFECT size. The zipper pulls we received were nothing short of amazing. Honestly, they are built nice and durable and I can see them coming in handy on all the sweaters and things we have to send to school, as well as her jacket. She LOVES the zipper pulls! I have to say, they could be my favorite too!

It’s safe to say that Label Daddy labels have made my life SO much easier! I dread the entire name process every year. These are FAR more fashionable then a Sharpie, which is great, for the pre-teen things everything NEEDS to be FAB these days!

BUY: You can buy Label Daddy labels online!

GIVEAWAY: ONE lucky reader will get your own Back to School Pack from Label Daddy!

MANDATORY ENTRY: To enter visit Label Daddy and tell me which icon and color is your favorite!

Nickelodeon Your Stay

[ 2 ] August 8, 2010

When you are traveling with kids, you have to take A LOT in to consideration. Things that are simple to most adults and that we can do with or without you simple can not do without if you have kids. To me a kid friendly hotel includes a microwave and a pool. However, there is so much more that can make the stay interesting and fin for both parents and children.

Marriott is introducing their Nickolodeon Your Stay packages. They are offering two different packages. Package A includes a Nickolodeon Your Stay bag, nickolodeon sun glasses, Build your own “spongebob” activity book and splash ball. Package B includes a Nickolodeon Your Stay bag, nickolodeon sun glasses, Build your own “spongebob” activity book and splash ball PLUS Nickolodeon Your Stay turn down service, which includes a souvenir pillowcase and a bedtime storybook.

This is all truly excited for the little ones. I love the turn down service because it’s exciting for them to get ready for bedtime then. Something most children on vacation are not found of. My children LOVED the Nickolodeon Your Stay bags. They pack them every time we have a sleep over or they are going away.

This isn’t all, the package has more. There is a nickolodeon key card, 4 page activity book, silicone bracelet with access to secret online games and an activity placement. This vacation, make it about the kids.

BOOK IT: You can book your Nickolodeon Your Stay vacation at Marriott and participating Marriott branches!
