Gutzy Gear - Review and Giveaway

Photobucket


Gutzy Gear is an awesome way for children to express themselves. I have two daughters in school this year and when my Gutzy Gear package came in the mail they were so excited. We received two sets of the backpack strap covers and four packs of Gutxies (removable patches).


The Gutzy Gear was so simple to put together. The girls each picked out which patches they wanted and they Velcro-ed easily to the backpack straps. The patches and straps are really great quality. There are so many great Gutzies to pick from, and of course my girls need more. Look at all those empty spaces! I have a feeling I will be doing some Gutzy shopping before school starts.
























If you want to learn more about Gutzy Gear or purchase some for your kids visit their website and their Facebook page. They also have a great page with free fun downloads for kids!

One of my readers will have a chance to win their own Gutzy Gear Starter Kit. The kit will include two straps and six packs of patches, with two patches each. This giveaway will be U.S. only. Enter for your chance to win on the rafflecopter below!

BlankZ Review

Photobucket
I have very creative kids. I seem to constantly be handed some little project one or more of my children have been working on. Sadly that creativity sometimes finds it's way to some not so great areas. My walls have often been the location of a beautiful mural. Picture books have been turned into coloring books. Dolls have had their faces covered in "make-up".


BlankZ gives my children the opportunity to unleash their creativity over and over again, and in a great place. We received an adorable blankZ White Hound with five markers for my children to enjoy. Of course my five year old immediately got busy with her designs. She had that little dog covered in color in a short time and had to show everyone. Then we tossed him into the washing machine and dryer so that she could start all over.
One of many colorful designs.

After being washed and dried.


There are several different blankZ characters for people to choose from. A really great plus is that the markers are (obviously) washable. So if it gets on clothes or little hands I can get it off easily. We have really enjoyed having the blankZ White Hound in our house. I'm thinking I will have to get another one. My three year old is always fighting for her turn to color him.

Boogie Wipes Review

There always seems to be a runny nose in my house. When the twins are teething their noses run. My three oldest all suffer from allergies which means a lot of sneezing and runny noses. Of course that means a lot of wiping. We have used tissues but they tend to be rough on little noses, and they don't work well on stuck on boogies. We have also used diaper wipes. They do a good job for any stuck on mess but sometimes they aren't gentle enough for little noses either. Also, that means even more diaper wipes being used in this house.


Boogie Wipes come in a variety of scents, as well as unscented. Boogie Wipes are soft wipes that are made with natural saline to help cleanse little noses. I have seen Boogie Wipes in stores before. I've always wondered how they work and if I should get some for my children. My mom usually keeps a pack at her house for the kids to use over there. When the opportunity to review Boogie Wipes came up I decided it was time to see what they could do. 


I received a 30 count pack of Fresh Scent Boogie Wipes, as well as several individually wrapped Boogie Wipes. First of, I love the smell of the Fresh Scent Boogie Wipes. It isn't an over whelming smell but it does smell really good. They came in a very easy to use pack. The latching opening helps to keep the Boogie Wipes moist. The wipes are easy to remove from the pack, too. I also love the individually wrapped wipes. I can toss them in my purse to have wherever we are. It is very convenient.


I have to say that Boogie Wipes have been very helpful around my house. I'll be very excited when the new 90 count canisters come out!

Baby Fresh Cleanser Review

Baby Fresh Cleanser was created by a mother of three, so obviously she had a little experience in the diaper changing area. The Baby Fresh Cleanser is made of 88% organic materials. That is a big plus for people who like to use natural products. It is so easy to use. You just spray it on your baby's bottom at the beginning of a diaper change. Let it sit for 10 seconds (if your baby is in a handsy mood, have a toy or something to occupy them! Just a suggestion) then you just wipe the baby's bottom clean. Like I said, so easy. It smells like Chamomile and lavender, and it also leaves a protective barrier on your baby's bottom to reduce the risk of diaper rashes. 


I have three children in diapers. As you can imagine the dirty diapers add up quickly, along with the crazy amount of diaper wipes we go through. I was really happy to get to review a bottle of Baby Fresh Cleanser! 


First off, this stuff smells great! I was super excited about that, because with an average of 5 dirty diapers a day, the smell can be overwhelming. I bet you're happy to learn about my children's diaper changes. Although that is what Baby Fresh Cleanser is for, diaper changing made easier. It definitely makes it easier. I have started using fewer diaper wipes with each changing. The Baby Fresh Cleanser helps to loosen all the potty residue on my little ones' bottoms, so usually it is a few quick swipes with one or two wipes, and I am done. I love it! 

My son, the oldest in diapers, loves the spray, too. I'm not sure why (he can't talk enough to say) but he gets so excited when I get it out for diaper changes. I imagine it probably is soothing in some way. I was a little unsure about using it with him. He has very severe eczema and so much seems to set him off. He has had absolutely no adverse reactions to the Baby Fresh Cleanser. 

Another thing I love, it seems to last so long! I have been using the spray for all dirty diaper changes for all three kids for about two weeks now. I still have quite a bit left. I do know that I will be looking into buying some more when this bottle starts to run out. It is saving me wipes and, truthfully, the better smell would be enough to sell me on it.

BioKleen Review



As a mother of five children, with the oldest being five years old, I have a lot of little people into everything. That means lots and lots of cleaning. I also have one child with severe asthma and another with severe eczema, so I have to be very careful of the things I use to clean in my home. Over powering chemical smells cause my three year old to have breathing problems. I want things to get clean, though. As a result I have been looking into more natural cleaning supplies.


BioKleen meets my cleaning needs without causing my children more health problems. Their products are natural, and they do not have overpowering smells. Their products are environmentally safer and they are biodegradable. Another great plus, they are manufactured in the USA! BioKleen offers a wide range of products, such as laundry powders and liquids, dishwash liquid, multi-surface cleaners, glass cleaners, soy blend cleaners, and a BioKleen Professionals line.


I was very excited to get to try one of BioKleen's products. I was sent a full size bottle of the Lavender-Lime Bac-Out Bathroom Cleaner. 
One of the first things I noticed in the product description was that it is great for homes with children. As soon as it got here I couldn't wait to try it out. It smells so amazing. I can go into the bathroom and scrub everything clean without my eyes watering, and without my three year old having problems. One worry that I have always had with natural cleaners is that they will not get things clean enough. That is not an issue with BioKleen's Bac-Out Bathroom Cleaner. It keeps my bathroom sparkling clean, and, again, it smells so good! I cannot wait to try some of their other products in my house.
