Yonanas, Healthy Dessert Maker Review & Giveaway

With the unofficial start of Summer at the end of this month, cool, refreshing treats are so timely. However, while ice cream on a hot day may be delicious, it can pack on the pounds if you’re not careful. There’s a great way to cater to your ice cream craving with a healthy alternative.

Yonanas, healthy dessert maker takes frozen bananas and other kinds of frozen fruit and turns it into a soft serve style dessert. You simply freeze bananas without the skin along with frozen fruit you can buy like mixed berries, mango, pineapple etc. Let the fruit thaw for about 15 minutes at room temperature and then run it through the Yonanas machine.

I was impressed with how easy it was to make a yummy, healthy treat with the consistency of ice cream. It tasted like a fruity sorbet. You can add chocolate or top with sprinkles or other toppings if desired. For easy cleanup the components are dishwasher safe!

WOW-WalkOnWater Pad–A Great Summer Toy For Kids, Adults and Even Fido!!!

We still have a couple of weeks before school starts, I had hoped to bring you this earlier but the weather this summer has left much to be desired. Rain was an understatement and this soggy summer did not make for the ideal conditions for fun on the lake. There were a few days and a brief heat wave week that we are grateful for but certainly wished the sun had shined a little more and that the clouds and raindrops would have taken a backseat.

We did get to try out a great new water toy. The Wow-WalkOnWater Pad lets kids and adults even Fido have some floating, fun.

The WOW-WalkOnWater is the perfect choice to bring for fun to any lake party or ocean activity. For water skiers the WOW is a Terrific Launch Platform. This is not just a kid’s toy –WalkOnWater Pad is also designed for adult parties, too.

The WOW Pad weighs less than 30 LBS and is brightly colored for great visibility. The Rolled Pad measures only two feet in diameter and can easily be transported. The regular Pad supports a distributed weight of 800 – 1,000 LBS. while the Jumbo Pad supports 1,400 – 1,600 LBS.

Made from cross linked foam – preferred for marine applications (such as off shore buoys) vs. non cross linked foam used in pool noodles.

Each WOW Pad comes with Velcro® straps to hold the rolled WOW Pad in place for easy storage, as well as mooring device which allows easy attachment to your boat, dock or pier. You can sit, walk, run or relax on this amazing pad. It is virtually maintenance free without the puncture worries that come with inflatable products. With proper care, it will give years of floating fun.

You can order a WOW Pad direct from their website by clicking HERE!!!

So pick up the new CD and have a great summer of music, singing, and making great memories!!!

Kicking off the sing-along fun is the traditional “She’ll Be Comin’ Round the Mountain,” from Seattle-based roots artist Johnny Bregar, recorded especially for this album. Texas-based country-Western artist Aaron Watson (with Elizabeth McQueen) delivers a super sunny version of the classic “Blue Skies.” Other featured artists are some of the top names in family music: Dan Zanes (with Barbara Brousal) performs the bluegrassy folk tune “Saro Jane,” Elizabeth Mitchellsings “Keep on the Sunny Side,” Buck Howdy delivers a cowboy-style “You Are My Sunshine,”Victor Johnson extols “This Little Light of Mine,” Randy Kaplan covers Bob Dylan’s “Forever Young”(originally written for his own child), and Phil Rosenthal and his band invite everyone to sing along with Woody Guthrie’s classic “This Land Is Your Land.” Kids and parents alike will also enjoy singing along with tunes like “Oh Susannah” (Diane Taraz) and “We All Need More Kindness in This World” (Guy Davis), an example of an original song that is sure to be an immediate family favorite for its singable, positive refrain.

American Playground includes 20 pages of colorful liner notes, including charming photos of children at play, historical kid-friendly information about the songs that enhance the great American story, plus details about each featured artist.

Putumayo Kids has been collecting and presenting smart sing-along songs for the whole family since the release of World Playground in 1999. The kids’ label of Putumayo World Music has released more than 20 colorfully packaged CDs in the Playground series, attracting worldwide acclaim and numerous awards. Last year, Putumayo Kids announced the first-ever digital availability of selected recordings, including the upcoming American Playground, available for purchase through the LeapFrog App Center. Additionally, a SiriusXM Satellite Radio show, The World Playground with Putumayo, featuring Putumayo Kids music, is broadcast on Saturdays at 10 am EST on channel 78.

“Putumayo Kids was created to inspire children to learn about the world through fun, upbeat collections of music. After moving to New Orleans in 2004 and raising my own American kid, it’s been fun exploring the broad world of American kid-friendly music,” says Dan Storper, founder and CEO of Putumayo Kids. “American Playground is a great addition to our other American-themed releases such as , Sing Along with Putumayo and Acoustic Dreamland. There is a lot of interest internationally in American music, and North American families will enjoy recalling and singing these songs together.”

Beach Rays Swimsuits Review and Giveaway!!!

Beach Rays had us pick out some suits for review. I chose the Emmet in a size 7 and the Eisley in a size 4T. When we got them they were both huge in the waist on both boys. However the Emmet was able to be cinched in tight with the drawstring waist, the Eisley was not. It really seemed off to me that the Eisley would not have a true drawstring waist, no matter what we did they were falling off my four year old. We had to try some safety pins but they were so huge it really was noticeable.

There was nothing we could do besides have them altered and there was not time to do that, so we just tried our best. I had to reject many pics because the trunks were completely falling down. I am going to contact the company and will update to see if we perhaps got a fluke pair. I mean my kids are slim but this was tremendously huge for a 4T. Anyway what I can say for the Eisley is that I loved the pattern and material. I truly wish they would have it in the bigger size because I like it so much. The Emmet was very large but could be cinched so that they were wearable. The Emmet was a fun pattern too and the material very soft and comfortable made of 100% Poly Micro Fiber.

Update: The company is sending us a new swimsuit as they say that must have been a defect with the Eisley and as soon as we get it I will update the review with the results.

Update #2 We were sent the new trunks in the Ethan pattern in a size 4T and the trunks fit fine, had the fully adjustable drawstring waist and proved the Eisley defective pair we did receive was just a fluke. The trunks stayed on so well you can see they even stayed on when Luke went on the trampoline. Great customer service and I would recommend the suits highly.
