Lollacup Straw Cup Review
March 14, 2011 by Vivian
Filed under Baby Products, Reviews
I was attracted by this Red Lollacup straw cup at my first sight. Its modern, whimsical, animal-shaped design appeals to children and adults alike. On www.lollacup.com, models in three different pleasing colors of bold red, happy orange, and good green are available. A variety of stores for ordering these cups have also been listed on the site. I can bet you won’t change your children’s sippy cups ever if you decide to go for the Lollacup.
What I have found is that it is an incredible sippy cup for infants and toddlers as it teaches them the art of feeding from a straw. It has been specially designed to relieve all young children of the burdensome and irregular experience they usually have with their sippy cups. Placement of the bottles is a problem as the infants don’t have the mind, tactic, and strength to place their bottles in the right angle and place. Moreover, the hard plastic bottles are not flexible enough to be brought into the desired place and hence create awkward angles for the babies. But, you may be relieved as the Lollacups have a very flexible straw which is valve free and with the weighted end that anchors in the liquid it’s very easy for young children to sip effectively from most angles.
As you will notice, this straw cup holds the ample amount of liquid ranging around 10 oz/300 ml. Again, these straw cups are BPA and phthalate free. In fact all of the parts of the Lollacups are cleared by the US consumer safety public information before being put up in the market. Although these are dishwasher safe, yet hand washing is highly recommended as there may be some indifferent chemical reactions if the bleaching material is not of good quality.
It is a user friendly product as all of the parts used in it are reusable. It is developed from very safe plastics that come after approval of the Govt. of Southern California licensed agency. Handling and cleaning of this cup is also very easy. Just remove the handle from the base and clean it with the straw cleaning brush included in the packet for our convenience.
It has always been noticed that toddlers find it difficult to sip from anything other than the straws. Hence, a product like this modeled on the similar concept is extremely beneficial to children. Just have it to assure a great milk diet for your happy!
Silkberry Baby Toddler Comforter with Removable Silk Filling Review
March 7, 2011 by Vivian
Filed under Baby Products, Reviews
Silkberry Baby is an exceptionally high quality and very comfortable baby bedding providers. They are simply the best in baby bedding products. Absolutely eco-conscious, all the products of Silkberry Baby are nature friendly. They use 100% bamboo or soft cotton fabric filled with best quality mulberry silk floss filling. They follow the guidelines laid by CFSID, that is, Canadian Foundation for the Study of Infant Deaths, as well as the Health Canada flammability regulations. Safety, breathability, comfort, light-weight, body temperature regulations are some of its very attractive features. It gives a completely secured and healthy sleeping to your baby. Few of their many products are 100% Bamboo Summer Baby Sleeping Sack, Baby Sleeping Sack with removable filling, 100% Silk Fleece Baby Blanket, Cuddly Pillow with Removable Silk Filling and Mulberry Silk Filled Candy Pillow.
I was so lucky to get their Toddler Comforter with Removable Silk Filling for review. It is extremely soft, just like my baby. It is light-weight and very easy for my baby to handle it. It is hassle-free and simple to wash also. I realized that when once my daughter spilled her chocolate shake on it. I simply removed the filling and washed the cover. Later on, when the cover dried up, I refilled the filling in the comforter. It is really as simple, as I said. Also it is completely breathable and very comfortable. My daughter simply loves the yellow sheep on it. You get an option to buy a comforter with pink sheep on it. The silk filling is of very good quality and keeps my daughter warm in harsh winters too. She likes to read books with her comforter wrapped around her because of the soft feel of the fabric. I have liked the product so much that I would like to order another 100% bamboo weave blanket to match with my daughter’s comforter. I am sure she is going to love it. Also, I feel very proud to use a completely eco-friendly product. The silk used is hypoallergenic and very durable, making you like this product even more. It also helps to regulate the body temperature and keeps the baby neither very cold nor very warm. It absorbs and releases moisture in the air.
I am very happy to have found this comforter for my baby and recommend it to every mom. The following link may be visited for more information, http://www.silkberrybaby.com/toddler-comforter.php.

B. Toys for Valentine’s Day Review
February 9, 2011 by Vivian
Filed under Baby Products, toys
Valentine’s day is also known as “Heart’s Day”, where we give our loved ones small trinkets, or special gifts to show how much we love them. This day is also a special day which we share with our little tots, and though we cannot give them flowers, or perhaps even give them chocolates (which they will surely enjoy), moms like us might want to check out B. Toys website to see the perfect gift we can give to our toddlers. The products promoted on this site are guaranteed to be child-friendly, as it was created with the basic consideration of what each child dreams and wants.
A Hugs Links toy may just be the perfect gift for our babies who are still on their voyage of discovering themselves by tinkering with their hands. Especially for the young ones, they enjoy holding things and tinkering with objects because they are on that curious stage as they are on their way to their voyage of discovery. Our little angels have by now learned to use their hands and they are now ready to explore their immediate surroundings. This gift is even safe to use, and it is adorned with vibrant colors to surely attract the attention of our toddlers. At the same time, it is able to develop the various skills of our child so we are basically getting our true money’s worth since our child not only gets to enjoy playing with the product but he also gets to develop his locomotor and cognitive skills.
Another fine gift that we could give is the sugar chute, which resembles a gum ball machine, but instead of gum balls, little balls are used. To release the balls inside, our little tots can just turn the lever, and we can easily see for ourselves the smile on their faces when they see these balls coming out! What is more remarkable about this product is that it does not need any coins or batteries. We are sure to hear the giggles from our children once we buy this product for them because they will surely get to enjoy seeing those balls rolling out one by one! For us parents, just hearing the laughter of our children as they play with any toy which we buy them is well-worth it. It is just one of the many ways of showing them how much we love them.
Any child would surely love to have these have gifts as they will surely enjoy playing with them. We can just imagine the smiles painted on their faces when they get to open the presents which we have for them on this very special day, where everyone, most especially our bundle of joy, is remembered.

My Mama’s Love: The TOTAL package
February 4, 2011 by Vivian
Filed under Baby Products, Reviews
Like most of you, I’m a mom who reads labels. I’ve found that products who claim to be organic or all-natural often only have trace amounts of those so called all-natural, organic ingredients.
That’s why I am pleased to present you with My Mama’s Love – a line of skincare for babies, kids, and parents alike, that is totally natural, totally organic, and totally effective.
Leslie McCann founded My Mama’s Love in 2005 when she could not find a curative to help soothe her daughter’s skin problems. Incorporating only the best organic ingredients, Leslie formulates the entire line of My Mama’s Love products with your family’s skincare and the earth’s welfare in mind. Since its inception, this all-natural skincare company continues to produce remedies for the skin and body which are safe, gentle, non-toxic, allergy friendly, and free from chemicals & preservatives.
My girls and I were thrilled to sample their baby gift set. My Mama’s Love Baby Gift Set includes their very popular Complete Skin Ailment Curative, the incredibly essential Burn-Out, and the super soothing Lullaby Love. While these products are perfect for new parents and their babies, they’re also appropriate for anyone and any age. After only a week of use, I’d already found everything in the baby gift set to be useful to me, my 2.5-year old, and my 1-year old.
The Complete Skin Ailment Curative was the first product we tried. I feel like I’m always bandaging boo-boos and smearing ointment on scrapes. I was eager to see how this skin ointment worked in comparison to others. I immediately noticed that you did not need a lot–a little goes a long way. I foresee using a lot of this product in the future so I’m very pleased to know that it will last me for a long time–it’s definitely a great, inexpensive investment for you and your child’s skin!
When my daughter grabbed the jar from my hand, I wasn’t too concerned because all of My Mama’s Love products are edible and completely non-toxic. What a relief! Speaking of relief, it was incredible to see the relief that my daughter’s skin found upon putting the Complete Skin Ailment Curative on her most recent scrape. She didn’t reach up to itch it and it already showed signs of healing after only having it on for 8 hours. I was impressed.
Even more impressive is that this all-natural skin ointment has endless uses–from easing the symptoms of eczema and psoriasis to soothing dry skin and diaper rash, this product seemingly does it all!
Within a day of receiving the baby set, my baby started teething again. I knew that meant more sleepless nights for us but I wanted to try the Lullaby Love massage ointment. I’ve always been a big fan of lavender so I liked this product immediately. I chose to rub it on her feet and cover them with socks and I was literally amazed at how much faster she fell asleep and how much longer she stayed asleep. Needless to say, using this Vegan massage ointment is now part of our bedtime routine!
Finally, we tried the Burn-Out. Or, I should say, I tried the Burn-Out. I was carelessly taking something out of the oven, grabbed it bare-handed as it fell to the floor, and burnt my fingers in the process. While my husband googled a way to soothe my pain, I reached for the Burn-Out. Words cannot describe how effective this burn ointment is. I would have taken a “before” and “after” picture of my burn but Burn-Out did such an incredible job stopping any blisters and healing any sores before they began that it would have been futile. I am definitely keeping this Burn-Out in stock at my house at all times.
There are so many great products in the My Mama’s Love line that I want to try them all. The Kiss My Boo-Boo sounds great not only because of its easy applicator but also because of how portable and handy it would be in so many situations. And I’d love to try their Bug-Off-Me bug spray–the idea of spraying chemical-free bug repellent on my children liberally throughout the summer is very appealing.
I truly cannot say enough good things about the eco-friendly, body-healthy products formulated by My Mama’s Love. If you want to be a part of the My Mama’s Love action, join their community on Facebook and Twitter.

Baggino Learner’s Bib Review
September 14, 2010 by Vivian
Filed under Baby Products, feeding, Reviews
Try as I might to guide a spoonful of food into my infant’s mouth without a spill, her bib is entirely covered in baby food before we’re halfway through with lunch. The problem with the mess on the bib is that our bibs only cover half of her outfit…and the other half is still getting food on it!
No longer!
We were thrilled to review the Designer Baggino Learner’s Bib. This bib is called a “learner’s” bib because it is primarily designed for children who are learning to self-feed. The same can be said, however, for infants who are learning to eat solids for the first time! In our household, we have a 2-year old self-feeder and a 7-month old new eater. We found that the Baggino Learner’s Bib was perfect for both of them and blows our other bibs out of the water!
The Baggino Learner’s Bib comes in a variety of styles–their classic style is made of white terry material with fun trim colors–red, pink, green, and light or dark blue. They also have Designer styles for girls–made on pink terry bibs with red trim, these adorable designer bibs are appliqued with a cupcake, dots, or a peace sign.
My two-year old is currently cupcake-crazed so this toddler bib could not have been more perfect for her. Catherine likes to think that she is old enough to eat without a bib but, unfortunately, her clothes are proof that it isn’t true. We often have “bib battles” where she’ll refuse to put on a bib–but those battles are non-existent now that she has a cupcake bib!
Catherine is very tall for her age (she measures as a 3-year old) so the fact that the arm sleeves are long enough for her is a testament that these bibs will grow with your child for a long time. The other great feature of this bib is the long lap portion–it covers her lap where all of her food usually falls.

September 14, 2010 by Vivian
Filed under Baby Products, Nursery, Reviews
Little Bamboo as the name suggests uses bamboo as raw material for the products it manufactures. The company, The Little Linen Company, formerly known as Glenisa Layettes, is a Melbourne; Australia based company, and has a worldwide network of people who are involved in every aspect of the company from procurement to manufacture and sales of the various products. The company specializes in the manufacture of superb quality nursery textiles that are very good for infants and babies and are eco friendly too.
The website of the The Little Linen Company is Little Bamboo and the website explains the benefits of the bamboo fiber.

The products that are made by the company are made from organically grown bamboo. The hugely popular baby products include blankets, crib sheets, bathing towels and muslin wraps. Made from 100% bamboo rayon, most products have a luxurious soft feel that is good for sensitive baby skin.
Having used the little bamboo baby blanket, I can vouch for the fact that the softness and comfort that the blanket provides was very evident from the way my daughter snuggled up to the blanket. She loves the soft smooth feel and this piece of fabric has been her favorite. The pristine white color adds to the bright clean look of the blanket. The baby blanket is ideal to wrap the little one during the nighttime or you can even use it when you take your baby outdoors. The breathable soft fabric will provide just enough warmth without making the baby uncomfortable when wrapped up. At a reasonable price of $29.99, this baby blanket is worth every penny spent.

YBike Review – A Fantastic New Family Of Balance Bikes Made Especially For Kids!
September 13, 2010 by Vivian
Filed under Baby Products, Reviews, toys
By the time your child is two or three, they will start noticing neighbor kids and older siblings riding their bikes. “Why can’t I ride a bike,” they’ll ask. Well, they can! The award-winning YBikes are just for children aged 2-4, and give children the freedom of bike-riding while building crucial gross motor skills.
YBikes are different than any other kind of bike on the market right now. They don’t have pedals, so younger children have no problem motoring it themselves. The lack of pedals also helps children build valuable skills because they put so much direct work into making the bike move. In fact, studies found that using the bike several times a week improved balance and coordination in kids, as well as increasing physical self-confidence. Lastly, children who used the YBike found it easier to transition to “real” bikes without training wheels. Who knew one bike could do this much?
All these improvements have not gone unnoticed. Although quite new, the YBike line has won the SABS design award. This prestigious award measures design across all kinds of products, not just toys. In the field of toys, the YBike has also won the Oppenheim Award, one of the most prestigious toy awards in the United States.
My daughter was really excited to try out the YBike, because she has been bugging me for weeks to get her a bike like all the other kids on the block. The bike was the perfect size for her and she loved tooling up and down the block in it. It was light-weight enough for her to maneuver by herself, which gave her lots of confidence. Also, without any tricky pedals, she had no problem getting where she wanted to go.
As a parent, I loved the YBike. The look of it was very aesthetically pleasing, and it’s easy to see why it has won awards for its design. It was a pretty compact design as well, making it easy to store in a corner of the living room or coat closet. The wheels were chunky and sturdy, and the whole structure seemed built to last. I definitely feel safe with my daughter on one of these YBikes.
And with good reason: the YBike has tons of safety features. The front wheels are designed for wide turns, so they won’t tip over. The largeness of the wheels also absorbs more impact on bumpy or uneven surfaces. Lastly, the back wheels are covered and the seating is placed more forward on the bike so kids can stretch their legs out without hurting themselves on the wheels.
For children aged 2-4, there is no better outdoor toy than the YBike Original. Its bright colors, sleek design and great safety features make this bike a great looking and safe ride. The special construction helps children build self-confidence and motor skills while still having a blast. Plus, it grows with them and will be fun until they’re ready to make the transition to a “big kid” bike. The YBike Original is the must-have toy for any house with a toddler.
Little Twig Bodymilk Review
August 23, 2010 by Vivian
Filed under Baby Products, Baby Skin Care, Reviews
My daughters love water. During the summer you can almost always find them in the pool, ocean, lake, sprinkler, or a bath! All that exposure to water, though, dries out their normally-soft and smooth skin. When Little Twig contacted us about testing their natural and organic baby lotion we knew we’d use it–we just didn’t know we’d love it!
Little Twig is a baby bodycare company started by a concerned mom who wanted to make sure that only the most natural and best products went on her child’s skin. Nearly all of the ingredients used in their lotions are organic and all-natural. While I am thankful that my children do not have overly sensitive skin, I still know that using all-natural organic lotion products like the ones made by Little Twig will still be of great benefit to their overall health.
If you do have a child (or children!) that reacts to the synthetic, allergenic materials found in most baby care products then it is time to rejoice! Little Twig created an organic lotion made just for sensitive skin–their Extra Mild Unscented formula contains soothing botanical products. In addition to those skin soothers, this hypoallergenic lotion is free of soy, wheat, and nut additives and does not contain mineral oil or paraben!
We had the opportunity to review both Little Twig’s scented and their unscented bodymilk. We first sampled the Calming Lavender bodymilk. I suppose I should add a small disclaimer: lavender is my favorite scent with lemon verbena following close behind. It goes without saying that a lotion that combines both scents (for their Calming Lavender bodymilk is a blend of lavender and lemon extracts and natural oils) would be the ultimate scented lotion for me to use on my daughters’ skin.
Little Twig did not disappoint. The Calming Lavender bodymilk is very mild and oh-so-smooth. It felt wonderfully silky coming out of the package and easily blended into my daughters’ skin. I found that a little bodymilk goes a very long way which means that it is not only eco-friendly, it’s also economical! I loved that the scent was a perfect blend of two scents, neither overwhelming but both soothing and perfect for the post-bath, pre-bedtime routine.
The following evening, we sampled the Extra Mild Unscented bodymilk. This lotion felt exactly the same–my toddler loved the silky feel of it so much that she found our sample and squeezed it all onto her hands:
While I was disappointed to lose so much lotion, it was a great excuse for me (and the rest of my family members!) to try the lotion as well–we simply took the excess off of my toddler’s hands and used it on our arms and legs. Everyone commented on how light but moisturizing this organic lotion was–we couldn’t get enough of it!
Both bodymilk lotions felt great on the skin and kept my children’s skin very moisturized. I did not love the unscented bodymilk’s scent (yes, even though it is “unscented” it still has a distinct scent!) but I know that the hypoallergenic nature of this organic lotion product is a huge benefit to parents and children alike who have to deal with sensitive skin.
Little Twig‘s natural and organic products don’t just stop at bodymilk–they also sell baby powder (a rarity these days!), diaper cream (claimed by other reviewers to be the best on the market!), body oil (in a calming lavender scent), bubble baths (complete with scented or unscented options), baby wash and shampoo (tear free of course!), mineral sunscreen (SPF 30+), and fun bath accessories (think adorable washcloths, mitts, and towels).
Little Twig‘s long term goal is to “nurture families organically”. They are so passionate about connecting parents with eco-friendly baby products and educating families on how to be more environmentally savvy that they created a blog and parent space to accomplish just that! You’ll find many eco-friendly tips from how to choose organic foods and clothing to how to make wise choices that will help sustain the environment.
In addition to their helpful resources, Little Twig encourages recycling–the extent of offering any customer a 30% discount on future purchases when they return four empty full-sized Little Twig product bottles! Talk about generous, eco-friendly, and wallet friendly!
In addition to their great resources, Little Twig is full of fun and creativity–they have six child-friendly “mascots” (see picture above), monthly contests on their Facebook page and an active Twitter account that features tips and savings!
If you are looking for a new baby lotion that contains organic and all-natural ingredients, I wholeheartedly recommend Little Twig’s products. You can buy the Little Twig products online or in local stores (available in the US and Canada).
