Gaiam Watercress Aluminum Water Bottle Review and Giveaway!!!
Are you drinking enough water? It’s so important to drink water throughout the day especially during any type of exercise. Are you tired of drinking from plastic bottles that just create more plastic garbage for landfills? Do you want a water bottle that’s easy to clean and made of high quality materials without toxins? If you answered yes to the last 2 questions, then you should check out the Watercress Aluminum Water Bottle from Gaiam. The wide mouth of this bottle makes it easy to add ice cubes and to clean thoroughly. The durable stainless steel is durable, non-toxic and 100% recyclable. The bottles are BPA free and have no need for an inner lining. Making a difference is as easy as changing how you drink your water!
Watercress Aluminum Water Bottle Features:
- Lightweight aluminum is perfectly portable
- 100% recyclable, including the caps
- Plastic bottle alternative
- Leak-proof
WHY STAINLESS STEEL? 86%t of plastic water bottles used in the United States end up in landfills, taking up to 1,000 years to biodegrade. Americans are currently adding 30 million PET water bottles to our landfills every day. Transporting bottled water consumes approximately 1.5 million barrels of fossil fuels per year. Help reduce this number by carrying a refillable bottle. When you use a stainless steel bottle, your water remains free of unhealthy plastic residues.

Marika, Balance Collection For Yoga Review!!!
My daughter has recently become very passionate about Yoga. She is in graduate school and it is a major stress reliever and keeps her in great shape. She goes as many as 6 times a week. She has been expanding her Yoga wardrobe and recently tried out some items from the Marika Balance Collection. She chose the Marika Tek – Artificial Reality Galaxy Print Leggings and Marika Tek-Solid Intuition Tank. She remarked immediately with the softness of the tank and how it was softer and felt better than a brand she buys that is much more expensive. She loved the leggings too, they were comfortable and fashionable and stayed put no matter the pose. She even found they were nice to wear outside of class paired with a different top. If you are looking for multi-sport active wear you should check out Marika. Use Promo Code BRIGHT40 to get 40% off all bottoms. Get 30% off your Balance order with code RELAX30.
You can follow Marika Fitness on Facebook and Twitter to stay up to date on sales, promotions and all the latest news.
I received the above pieces at no cost from Marika in order to facilitate my review. As always the opinions and views are entirely my own.

The Green Glass Co., Oversized Glass Tumbler “Re-Bottled” Review & Giveaway!!! #HolidayGiftGuide
I remember one Christmas my older sister received a kit made for kids, that turned glass bottles into drinking glasses. When I think about what was involved and the potential danger to kids, I can say it would never make toy of the year by today’s standards. I remember you would put the bottle in this device and it would score the bottle and then some how you would crack the scored top off. Next you would smooth and polish the raw edges of the glass with from what I remember required putting it through the flame of a candle. Sounds like fun for kids, right? Either that or a trip to the emergency room.
You can’t argue that it’s a neat idea to recycle bottles into drinking glasses. Well, The Green Glass Company has done all the work for you, their Oversized Glass Tumbler is made from a reclaimed chardonnay bottle. This glass holds 20 ounces of liquid and is the perfect way to ditch one time use plastic cups and plastic bottles.
If you are still looking for gift ideas the Oversized Glass Tumbler is a perfect choice, especially for the tree huggers on your list. My four-year old noticed that the recycled carton the tumbler comes in makes a great sounding drum, perfect for his rendition of The Little Drummer Boy. You can find the Oversized Glass Tumbler from Green Glass on our 2013 Holiday Gift Guide!!!

Hexbug Nano Infinity Loop V2 Habitat Set Review & Giveaway!!! #HolidayGiftGuide
My little guys love the HEXBUG Nano bugs. The new breed of gravity defying Nano V2 bugs can climb everywhere in the new Nano V2 habitat sets. The Nano V2 Infinity Loop Habitat has a double loop open play area and comes with one Nano V2 bug. This set is the perfect gift for any seasoned HEXBUG collector or a great introduction for anyone to the HEXBUG world. Watch with awe as these jittery creatures climb up, down, around corners and through the loops and tubes. The habitat is expandable so it can expand as your child’s collection expands.
The HEXBUG® Nano V2 is an evolved Nano, sporting a new look, with three rubber spikes on its back. The tiny micro robotic creature uses the physics of vibration to scurry up through multiple levels of tubes, as high as your V2 set will take it, to explore its environment. The quick little critter can crawl through tubes on its feet or on its back, and can pass another bug in a single tube to avoid a traffic jam! The Nano V2 will even flip to its feet when landing on its back on an open flat surface.
