2010 Holiday Gift Guide – ImagiPlay Colorific Earth Puzzles – Butterfly Alphabet Review And $15 GC Giveaway

Have you been searching for an interactive, non-traditional way to teach your children the letters of the alphabet? ImagiPlay comes to illustrate the idea that learning is much easier when you are having fun. It has created an ingenious method for children to familiarize themselves with the alphabet and to learn it step by step.

The “Butterfly Alphabet” puzzle is a toy made from little parts that after put together make a gorgeous butterfly. The kids can put the parts in the specific order of the alphabet starting from a wing and finishing at the other wing. After finishing crafting the butterfly it can decorate the room making it brighter as it is made from eye-catching colors. So besides of being an aid to learning it can be used as a decoration, as it gives a playful touch to the room. This toy not only helps the children to develop their ability of learning the alphabet, and further on writing and reading, it also helps them improve the attention and ability to make connections as the purpose in creating the butterfly is actually building it. So the children will develop a little sense of logic as they discover that some pieces can’t go with others, and just like a puzzle they must test possibilities and bring it to a final form.

The manufacture of this toy is eco-friendly as the pieces are made from plantation-grown rubberwood. This is a very environmentally friendly hardwood, so it can be bought with a carefree from polluting the nature. The ImagiPlay company aims to make products that show the respect towards the planet and its inhabitants.

Another great aspect of the toy is that each and everyone of them is carefully made. The crafting is hand made as the craftsman handles with great care each and everyone of these toys making them special. They are passed to the painters who also paint by hand the toys giving them their creativity and attention. They are making every tiny detail count. A combination of these two results in making a wonderful toy that will help and aid many children. This particular craftwork is recommended for children that are above the age of three as it can be dangerous for the little ones if they put the parts in their mouth.

My two and a half year old daughter simply loves it. Even though she can’t quite finish it yet she is very interested in how the toy works and very egger to complete the puzzle as she enjoys doing puzzles.

All in all, the “Butterfly Alphabet” comes as ingenious and fun way of learning the alphabet as it challenges both the child’s attentions and ability of making connections. Also it can be used as a decorative piece after completing it and for the ones who are environmentally aware.

I highly recommended Organically Hatched web store, which brings the best in organic baby products.

Earth Mama Review And $25 GC Giveaway Ends 6/1 (US/CAN)

I was lucky to receive Happy Mama Spray and Earth Mama Body Butter for review. The luxurious Happy Mama Spray and Earth Mama Body Butter will pamper your body and smell delicious. They are both made by Earth Mama Angel Baby, an amazing company that focuses on all natural products. Made for moms by moms, all their products are toxin-free, vegan, cruelty free and free from preservatives, fragrances and dyes. They use organic materials and use eco-friendly packaging, and are truly a brand you can feel good about supporting.

The Earth Mama Body Butter is made from organic calendula and chamomile and specially formatted for pregnancy stretch marks. It’s safe to use during pregnancy and won’t aggravate morning sickness. This lotion is super moisturizing and rich and encourages skin elasticity to prevent stretch marks. This delicious smelling lotion was voted the Best Stretch Mark Cream by the Natural Solutions Magazine, and if you use it, you’ll definitely agree.

The Happy Mama Spray is a sprayable mix of essential oils that will make your whole house smell amazing. It has many uses: spray some on for nausea during pregnancy, or use it around the house whenever you feel down. It’s made from essential oils like ginger and lime, as well as flower essences. It’s all organic and safe, and you’ll find yourself using it again and again both during pregnancy and after.

I was delighted by the Earth Mama products. The Body Butter was super soft and luxurious, and I smelled good all day. It made my skin so touchable, and it felt like a mini vacation in a bottle. The Happy Mama Spray also smelled delicious, and I used it all over my house: in the air, on sheets, and I even spritzed some on my wrists. Its sunny scent was an instant pick me up, and my whole family loved the smell. Plus, it didn’t have any of those icky chemical smells that so many air sprays have.
