Sili Squeeze Review and Give-away!!! {Give-Away Ended}

Babies are messy when they eat, it’s fun for them, but it is impractical to let them make messes in the car or on the go! I received a Sili Squeeze a short time ago from The Sili Company, and it is quite ingenious! This dishwasher safe Sili Squeeze is like a bottle, with a soft, nipple like spout, but the body of it is made out of squeezable, 100% BPA and phthalate free silicone. This allows a baby to feed himself pureed foods like applesauce or yogurt through the spout without making a big mess! Made to do what babies reflexively and naturally do: squeeze things with their hands!

I never thought at 9 months, my baby would be able to feed himself, mess free! He and I are in love with the sili squeeze! He seems to like the independence of being able to feed himself, and figured out how to use it right away with no problems! It is soft and easy for little hands to hold and squeeze. I love how the mess is contained without me having to help or clean up! All I have to do is fill it up with yogurt, hand it to my baby and he happily squeezes away, eating his breakfast with ease! I am able to leave him at it, and go take care of other mommy responsibilities!

We think the Sili Squeeze would make a great stocking stuffer for your baby, so we are adding it to Mommy Rambling’s 2011 Holiday Gift Guide!

The Sili Company is graciously sponsoring a give-away on Mommy Ramblings. One lucky blog reader will win their own Sili Squeeze!! Thank you to The Sili Company for this fantastic review Sili Squeeze and give-away!!!  Open to US residents.

Nexxus Salon Hair Care, Pro-Mend Products Review & Give-Away!!! {Give-Away Ended}

I was recently sent some Nexxus Salon Hair Care products to review.  I received Pro-Mend Split End Treatment Daily Shampoo, Pro-Mend Split End Binding Daily Conditioner and Pro-Mend Split End Binding Targeted Leave-in Treatment Creme.

The daily shampoo prepares split end prone hair for repair by gently cleansing away damaging impurities and build-up, while providing the vital nourishment hair needs.  This shampoo works great and leaves my hair soft, strong and super shiny.  It smells great and contains coconut oil, Keratin and Jasmine flower extracts.

The revolutionary daily conditioner, works to target and bind 86% of split ends back together in just three washes.  The conditioner works by using a proprietary ProMend Technology that contains a unique complex of positively and negatively charged polymers, which first stick to negatively charged hair and then stick to each other to bind the ends together for true repair.  The conditioner has a unique texture that feels and performs unlike any other conditioner to target and repair split ends. Using this conditioner daily quickly repairs split ends and leaves my hair beautiful, strong and healthy. This great smelling conditioner contains rich coconut oil, Keratin and Jasmine flower extracts.

The daily leave-in treatment creme, targets split end problem areas and binds 92% of damaged hair together in just one use.  This leave-in treatment creme works by the principal of the Proprietary ProMend Technology like the daily conditioner does. This creme provides daily repair to split ends, using it will make your hair feel and look like it has been freshly cut.  This great creme leaves the ends of my hair looking beautiful healthy and strong.  The leave-in conditioner also contains coconut oil, Keratin and Jasmien flower extracts and smells wonderful.  All you need to do is apply a nickle size amount to the ends of your hair and style as usual.

Mommy Ramblings thinks these products are a great way to pamper yourself this holiday season and have you hair look its best.  We are adding it to our 2011 Holiday Gift Guide under Products to Pamper Yourself and Your Family This Holiday Season.

Glee Gum, Make Your Own Chocolate Kit Review & Give-Away!!! {Give-Away Ended}

I was recently asked to pick a kit from Glee Gum to review.  I picked the Make Your Own Chocolate Kit. Inside each Make Your Own Chocolate Kit you’ll find: organic cocoa butter, cocoa powder, confectioner’s sugar, starter crystals, a temperature indicator, paper candy liners, instructions, and the story of chocolate.

This is a great activity to do with your kids and there is a lot of teaching information included.  It even includes 2 cacao beans that you rub between your fingers to remove the shells and everyone can have a taste and your kids can see the beans that chocolate is made from.

You can use the stove or the microwave for the melting and cooking.  We used the microwave and the first step is to melt the cocoa butter for about 3 minutes in the microwave.

The next step is to stir in the cocoa powder and confectioner’s sugar and mix until smooth.

You then put the mixture back in the microwave for 10 seconds only.  Then you attach the thermometer to the bottom of the bowl.  Add 1/4 tsp. of vanilla and stir until the mixture reaches 94 degrees.  Then you add the starter crystals and stir until there are no lumps.  Next, you pour the chocolate in the paper liners.

When you are done filling the liners you put them in the refrigerator for 15 minutes or until cold and hardened.  Then remove the liners and enjoy!!!

This kit was a lot of fun for everyone to make together.  The end result was delicious.  Mommy Ramblings thinks this kit from Glee Gum would make a great gift this Holiday season and so we are adding it to our 2011 Holiday Gift Guide.

Glee Gum is sponsoring a give-away on Mommy Ramblings.  One lucky blog reader will win the candy kit of their choice.  Thank you Glee Gum for the review kit and for sponsoring this yummy give-away on Mommy Ramblings!!!  Open to US residents.

Kai Bean Boy’s Clothing Collection Review & Give-Away!!! {Give-Away Ended}

 

I was recently asked to do a review for Kai Bean Kids, Flap Happy’s new boys clothing line.  I was generously sent two great matching outfits for my little boys.  I received 2 of the Screen Printed Long Sleeve Tee Shirt in “Speedometer” and 2 pairs of the French Terry Pant. Everything felt super soft and I just knew it was going to be very comfortable on them.  I was not wrong, they loved the outfits. Both boys really like having pockets to put things in and the French Terry Pants has two deep pockets and a drawstring waist to ensure a great fit. The shirt is very stylish with its great large graphic on the front and the embellishment of thermal waffle knit material on the shoulders and sleeves. This outfit is great for school and play.  If you are looking for comfortable, stylish clothes that will stand up to your little boys, then check out theKai Bean Kid’s Collection.

Made entirely in Southern California, USA, Kai Bean is a fashion forward line which combines the latest trends in contemporary menswear with a laid back California lifestyle. Comprised of the softest garment dyed cottons including French Terry, Thermal Waffle Knit and Combed, Ringspun Jersey, as well as silky soft rayon, the collection is available in sizes 6/12 month – 12 years.Kai Bean has a very clean, comfortable look, and is available in a variety of styles including tee shirts, shorts, pants and hoodies, with details such as raw edges and mixed fabrications within one garment.

You’ve Been Sentenced! Game & Add-On Decks Review and Give-Away!!! {Give-Away Ended}

If you are looking for a super fun family or party game, then you have to check out, “You’ve Been Sentenced!”  I was sent this game with six add-on decks from McNeill Designs to review. Even though it said it was for 3-10 players, my husband and I played it.  It was so much fun.  You start by picking 10 cards each and you then begin using the cards to make grammatically correct sentences that make some kind of sense.  When one person has their sentence done they turn the timer over and everyone else has the remaining time to complete their sentence.  After the timer has run out, you go about comparing your sentences where I guarantee you will be laughing like crazy.  You can challenge your opponents sentence if you think it is not correct.  My husband created the funniest sentences about Annie Oakley eating fake plastic worms and others that just left me shaking my head.  I came up with some contenders myself.  I can just imagine how fun this game will be to play with more people.  The add-on decks just add to the variety and fun.  This is one of our favorite games, it makes you think and it is hilarious. We made some crazy sentences and laughed a lot, the game goes really fast and you will find yourself playing it multiple times in one evening.

Mommy Ramblings thinks this is one of the greatest games and we are adding it to our 2011 Holiday Gift Guide because it would make the perfect Family Gift.  You’ve been Sentenced! has now won 17 awards and is available at Barnes & Noble, Kohl’s and Toys R Us this holiday season.

You’ve Been Sentenced! Game & Add-On Decks Review and Give-Away!!!

If you are looking for a super fun family or party game, then you have to check out, “You’ve Been Sentenced!”  I was sent this game with six add-on decks from McNeill Designs to review. Even though it said it was for 3-10 players, my husband and I played it.  It was so much fun.  You start by picking 10 cards each and you then begin using the cards to make grammatically correct sentences that make some kind of sense.  When one person has their sentence done they turn the timer over and everyone else has the remaining time to complete their sentence.  After the timer has run out, you go about comparing your sentences where I guarantee you will be laughing like crazy.  You can challenge your opponents sentence if you think it is not correct.  My husband created the funniest sentences about Annie Oakley eating fake plastic worms and others that just left me shaking my head.  I came up with some contenders myself.  I can just imagine how fun this game will be to play with more people.  The add-on decks just add to the variety and fun.  This is one of our favorite games, it makes you think and it is hilarious. We made some crazy sentences and laughed a lot, the game goes really fast and you will find yourself playing it multiple times in one evening.

Mommy Ramblings thinks this is one of the greatest games and we are adding it to our 2011 Holiday Gift Guide because it would make the perfect Family Gift.  You’ve been Sentenced! has now won 17 awards and is available at Barnes & Noble, Kohl’s and Toys R Us this holiday season.
