Funkins Review and Giveaway - Holiday Gift Guide

 

You might be saying what is Funkins? Let me tell you...

Funkins are bright, reusable cloth napkins made especially for kids. They are ideal for lunch boxes, and perfect for meal and snack time at home, and on the go. Funkins are a smart alternative to throwaway napkins and tablecloths, and they are the perfect complement to environmentally-conscious families and schools that practice waste-free lunch programs.

Funkins have double-sided patterns and are made from 100% cotton fabric using low impact dyes. They are a fun and cute way to spice up a kids meal or bring happiness to the table while also being eco-friendly. We use ours for almost every meal, they can be used as both a napkin and a placemat. Not only do the boys like to have "their" placemat at their own spot, but it keeps some of the mess on the Funkin, not on the table. I folded the top down so that both patterns were visible, I liked being able to see both sides.

Liam and his Funkin. We call him monkey so this was a great pattern choice for him!

JJ is using one of the holiday patterns, not to mention he LOVES penguins!

The choices and patterns Funkins has to offer is great. They have some especially for Boys, Girls, and Holidays! Another great thing Funkins offers is if you start a waste-free lunch program and promote Funkins in your school, they will give back to your school’s activities and programs. Check it out here.

Mikarose Review and $50 Giveaway

Finding clothing that is cute but also fitting with my personality and body frame can sometimes be difficult. I have a larger on top frame that can sometimes make it hard to wear certain cuts of tops like a v-neck or scoop neck. I have been looking for a holiday dress to wear that was comfortable for me to feel fancy in but not too revealing. I found a company Mikarose that has fashionable and modest clothing. They make many cute tops and dresses that I like.

For the holidays I ordered the beautiful Renee Lace Dress. I love how it looks it was perfect. But the sizing runs a bit small. I wear plus size and this dress should have been a fit for me but it was too small. I will be letting my friend have the dress for her holiday party since she fit in it better than me. I was too uncomfortable with how tight it was on the top part. Its a pretty dress! it also comes in a black lace. Another great feature about the dress is that it is machine washable.



I found a few other cute items from Mikarose that I would like to give as gifts.

For our Holiday Gift Guide we will be hosting a giveaway for a $50 Gift Certificate to Mikarose.

Stompeez Review and Giveaway

Knowing what my son wanted this year has been fairly easy, he sings the catch phrases or tells me when he sees a commercial that he likes it. Last year it was Pillow Pets, this year its all about Stomp Stomp Stompeez. He even asked Stompeez Please. Too cute! Last year that had such an overwhelming demand they ran out! But this year they have a new plan and tons of inventory for all the good little boys and girls that want Santa to bring them Stompeez.

Have you seen the commercial its very catchy. They show the kids stomping in the cool slippers and say Stomp Stomp Stomp Stompeez! I have even seen Stompeez showing up at some retailers. For my son I picked the Growlin' Dragon. My son thinks dragons are super cool. He loves this slippers. He stomps all over the house making his Stompeez growl at me. They have even munched on a few toys. My son will stick a action figure in the Dragons mouth and make the slipper bite it. It hilarious! You do need to stomp in the slippers to get them to work. My son had to learn to stomp properly to make the mouth open. I am sure older kids will have no trouble at all.

Making his Stompeez growl at me

My son immediately knew what they were. He yelled Stompeez and put them on to stomp. He wears them in the house every day and I have let him wear them to run errands. He had them on in the grocery store cart the other day and a few people asked me where to get them. Some kids recognize them too. They are a super cute gift for the kids in your life! Most kids under 5 will wear a small. My son is 3 with big feet and he still has room on the back of the slippers to grow into them.

My son LOVES his Dragon Stompeez

You can buy Stompeez online and get great deals.

I have two promos to share that won’t expire until after Dec 31, 2012:

This Little Lady

This little lady of mine will turn one in less than a week. One! 

This year has gone by so fast. I want to freeze time and keep her under a year old just a bit longer. 

She has always been so sweet, gentle and darling but lately I am starting so see a little "spice" in her personality. 

She is smart, determined, cute and even a little bit sassy these days! And getting a picture of her is out of the question, she has better things to do then pose for her mama!

Oh my I am so not ready for my little girl to grow up. 

But on the other hand I can't wait to see the young lady she becomes.
