ShuShyBye Sleepover Surprise Book & CD Review And Giveaway Ends 3/14

I must confess I am always excited to put my child to sleep, because as a woman I need to have enough time for myself too, from finishing my daily chores to reading my favorite book and for my nightly routine as well. Hope you won’t call me selfish, but hands-on mother could somewhat relate to this.

I remember when my daughter was just an infant I never had a hard time putting her to sleep, our bedtime routine efficiently gave me sufficient time. But I have to cope up with the changes, the moment finally arrived, her infant routine wasn’t working anymore. It would take me almost two hours just to put her to sleep, as much as I don’t want to, my frustration sets in.

Shushybye Company was founded in 2004 and now they proudly present their very own, original Shushybye’s parent & child interactive, multimedia collection. Shushybye children series on BabyFirstTV is available on cable and satellite channel in the US which focuses on child’s healthy night-time routines. In case that you didn’t catch their highly recommended show, I’ll tell you some tidbits about it.

Shushybye’s children program is not an animated series, which is really good because flashy cartoon shows tend to lessen our child’s capability to imagine on the higher level, and it induces a hyperactive effect on them. The Shushybye TV series would set your child in the sleep-mode, it’s like their characters are telling your child that be ready to sleep because a lot of great things are about to happen. They offer an exciting presentation in a calming way. I received these Shushybye’s Sleepover Surprise book and CD for product evaluation. From the iParenting and Family Choice Award-Winning toddler and preschool sleep-themed entertainment (obviously the one I am talking about earlier) in which they partnered with St Martin’s Press.

On the first night that we received the Shushybye’s Sleepover Surprise book and CD, we were both excited; as soon as the read-along CD plays I watched my daughter calmed down, serious on the three best-buds Zeez, Dozie and Snoozles. The two of them created an unexpected concert treat for Dozie. She loves how the story is narrated, and with three songs, my little angle surely has enough music to carry on to her dreamland. And with less than 30 minutes, she’s set to her deep slumber. The Shushybye’s Sleepover Surprise book and CD is now the highlight of our bedtime routine, or maybe just for me, for the best part would be my daughter’s adventures in her dreams. One thing for sure, Shushybye’s Sleepover Surprise book and CD improves my child’s sleeping habit in a very imaginative way, and it also made my life easier. In reality, you have the two-sides of the coin with Shushybye’s product. Their line offers ideal sleep amenities for children, such as toys, sleepwear, DVD’s, posters and more. Why not create your very own dreamland with the help of Shushybye Shoppe at www.shushybye.com. My daughter’s room is now under renovation… What’s in store with the Shushybye’s Sleepover Surprise book and CD was discovered by my child and I, thanks for the product review, we are both winners.

Barefoot Books Review And Giveaway Ends 2/12

A number of studies says that reading to infants not only boosts speech and language development, but also improves overall intelligence. When you read to your baby, you set the stage for a lifetime of literacy and you can make the experience fun and interactive. Your baby will respond while you read, they will make sounds, imitate what they see and even dance when you read or sing nursery rhymes.

Barefoot Books, an award-winning independent children’s publisher, was born 15 years ago out of their founders’ shared desire to create imaginatively written and beautifully illustrated children’s books that captured the diversity and richness of the world’s many cultures in an accessible way.

Barefoot Books’ picture books for children fall into three categories. I had the chance of reading and reviewing 3 wonderful books from their three book categories, including “The Animal Boogie” (With Singalong CD), “I Took the Moon for a Walk” and “Skip Through The Seasons”. These books are very colorful and educational. We have lots of fun when reading the books together. My daughter loves the song of “The Animal Boogie” and tried to imitate the animals’ movements. With the book “Skip Through The Seasons”, I can start to explain 12 months to my little girl but I am not sure if she understands yet. But I definitely know she loves the time of snuggling together to read.

You can not only find all sorts of books for any age group at Barefoot Books but also from building blocks to adorable puppets, from puzzles to wonderful fascinating gift sets too!

Here is the core value being behind Barefoot.

Imagine

We offer books that are an authentic alternative to the commercialization of childhood. We encourage children to make time for make-believe, let their imaginations run wild and free, while never forgetting that childhood is a time for fun.

Explore

We help children explore other cultures, our planet, and themselves, providing them with ways to follow their imaginations on extraordinary journeys, both inner and outer.

Create

We believe that books with beautiful art and meaningful stories respect the innate wisdom of children and have the power to nourish the creative spark in everyone.

Connect

We are committed to using story to create deep and lasting connections—whether it’s a child and parent connecting over a book; a child connecting to the universal wisdom of other cultures; or a broad network of people connecting through shared values and the desire to help children become happy, engaged members of a global community.

Give Back

We support organizations that share our goals of global understanding, empowering children through art and story, and protecting and preserving the earth for future generations.
