ImagiPlay Review and Giveaway

As a mom of 3 children, I have seen, bought and thrown away my fair share of toys. My children range in age from 9-1 so the variety of toys in home has to wide. With my first two children, I didn't consider the harmful chemicals that were in toys because there wasn't much ever said about that kind of stuff. This day and age, all you hear about is the harmful chemicals that are in everything from toys to sippy cups so parents have to beware of what they buy and allow their children to play with.

With my 3rd child, I have been very careful to encourage her imagination beyond the TV and battery powered toys. I want her to learn how to play because most kids don't have any idea how to do that anymore. At only 21 months old, I have found her playing quitely in her room with a puzzle or a book. She already understands the idea of play.

When I had the chance to review the 3 Ducks Puzzle from ImagiPlay, I was so excited. She love puzzles so this would be a great product for us to review. This companys motto is "Toys with Intergrity." I was very impressed with this. You can go here to read about how ImagiPlay was born.

First, Emma's favorite animal is a duck! She calls it a quack quack. When I opened the box, Emma squealed in delight just because it was a duck. Once I showed her what to do with them, she went to town. It took several tries and I had to model it to her several times but she got. After playing for awhile, Emma asked to put the quack quacks in the bath tub : ) After playing, these ducks will stand in an upright position as a decoration on her dresser.




I am very happy with ImagiPlay. They offer toys that are made from rubberwood, hand painted with Lead free paint, and are all natural and non toxic.

Bet you want one, huh?

Head on over to ImagiPlay and check out the huge line of all natural toys that they have to offer.

Yoplait Greek Yogurt Review and Giveaway

I recently was given the opportunity by My Blog Spark and Yoplait to review the new Yoplait Greek Yogurt. Yoplait has teamed up actress Izabella Miko, who plays Greek Goddess Athena in Warner Bros. Pictures´ and Legendary Pictures´ film new epic feature film "Clash of the Titans," to encourage women to nourish our inner goddess.

In addition to 2 coupons for my choice of Greek Yogurt flavors, I was also sent a robe, slippers, loofah, hand held massager and other spa items that I can use to pamper myself.

The new Greek Yogurt is available in Strawberry, Blueberry, Honey Vanilla and Plain and offers 12 grams of Protein-twice the amount of leading companies. I chose to review the Blueberry and the Honey Vanilla. I have to say that this was definitely a different experience for me. This yogurt is much thicker than any other yogurt that I have ever tried. The flavor was not as powerful as other yogurts but I enjoyed the Blueberry very much. The Honey Vanilla was not my favorite but next time I will add some fresh fruit to boost the flavor. My toddler loved it which is an accomplishment. She is very picky so I feel good about that.

My husband stole my robe before I got a chance to use it and reported that it was wonderful. The remaining spa products worked wonderfully and made me feel like a Goddess.

Yoplait is also offering all my Luvn Life readers the chance to print a .30 off coupon on your purchase of Greek Yogurt.

Bet you want one, huh?

Print your coupon and head to your favorite grocery store to purchase your own Yoplait Greek Yogurt.

Creativity For Kids Coloring & ARTivity Book Reivew and Giveaway

I was recently contacted by Creativity for Kids to review their new line of products called Coloring & ARTivity Books.

A bit about the company ~From the site:

In 1976 Phyllis Brody and Evelyn Greenwald, the founders of Creativity for Kids, had a dream that their unique concept of enriching, open-ended creative activities would inspire children all around the world. With hard work, a dedicated mission and respected friendships along the way, their dream became reality.
Their mission statement:
Our mission is to provide children with experience that stimulate and encourage their natural creativity
Children are Important to Us
We strive to be the leading innovator and provider of the best creative children’s activity products
Children Deserve Our Best
We operate our business in a responsible and caring way, valuing the contribution of each customer, employee, and friend
Children Inspire Us

I was able to pick the book that best fit my family. My oldest daughter loves to draw and color so I chose the "How do you Doodle." I was very impressed with the selection that they offered. There are 18 styles on the site and each book varies in the age range that is appropriate for your child.

This title offers 24 pages and each page is designed open ended. This allowed Leya to transform her pages into anything that she wanted to. Each page offered a prompt to spark her imagination but there was not right or wrong way to complete the doodle. She sat at the table for over an hour working on her first masterpiece and she was super proud of her accomplishment.

To go along with the coloring book, we also received a pack of 12 Jumbo
Triangular Crayons. Leya really liked these crayons. These are intended for little fingers and help grow small motor skill. Leya is 9, so these may not have been age appropriate for her but she really enjoyed using them and the crayons colored a bright and vibrant color. She noted that it would be hard to break them : )

These are ACMI approved.

Retails for $4.50






We also received the 12 count Jumbo Triangular Colored Pencils. Again, they are intended for small fingers but Leya loved them. She said they were comfortable to hold and color. It was great that the pack includes a jumbo sharpener since standard sharpeners wont fit these pencils.

Retails for $9.50

Bet you want one, huh?

Head on over and visit Creativity for Kids and check out all the books in this line.

Creativity for Kids is offering 1 lucky Luvn Life reader the chance to win a coloring book of their choice plus the Colored Pencils and Crayons.

Yoplait Simply Go Gurt Review and Giveaway

I have to say that Go Gurt has been a family favorite in my household for quite some time. When we are out shopping, Go Gurt is the first thing my kids ask for and the first thing I'm happy to purchase for them. I love the simplicity of this yogurt. I can just hand them to the kids as a quick and easy snack. There is no need for a spoon or a bowl, making cleanup a breeze. My toddler went through a phase when she would eat nothing but Go Gurt. I was worried about her but the doctor assured me that she would be okay with only eating GO Gurts. Also, I have found that if they are frozen, my kids prefer to eat them instead of a Popsicle. I can also pop a frozen one in their lunch box and it will still be cold when they have lunch.

I just learned that it is now called Simply Go Gurt. Now there is no high frutose corn syrup or artificial colors or flavors. This only makes me more happy to offer these to my children and they did not notice a difference. They are available in 2 flavors; mixed berry and strawberry.

Free Coupon for 30 Lucky Readers

The first 30 readers to click on the link below will receive a coupon for a FREE box of Simply Go Gurt. If you aren't 1 of the first 30, you will still be able to print a coupon for $1.10 off. That is a great coupon since the Go Gurt is only about $2.98 a box. This coupon offer for free Simply... Go-Gurt is not valid in some states, including California, Idaho, Louisiana, Minnesota, New Jersey, Nevada, North Dakota and Tennessee

With my coupon for Simply...Go Gurt, I also received a back seat organizer, a weekly organizer and a mini Etch A Sketch. I love the organizer. I have it my car already and have loaded it up with activities for my kids to do in the car.

Bet you would like some, huh?

Please print the coupon and head on out to your favorite store and pick up the new Simply...Go Gurt.

Bet you would rather win some, huh?

Knickernappies Diaper Review and Giveaway

Thoughout the Diaper Event, I have tried several great diapers but I have to say that I was most excited about trying out the KnickerNappies diaper. First of all, what a great name :) I was very intriged with the side snaps. This is something I have never seen before.


I actually was in contact with Anne at The Diaper Wagon. Anne provided the best customer service of anyone I have ever worked with, hands down. She not only allowed me to choose my dipe color, but went out of her way to get that exact color and did it in a very timely manner. She kept in close contact with me and kept me up to date at all times.



The Diaper Wagon offers the widest range of cloth diapering supplies that I have seen so far. She has a great selection of diaper brands and accesories. I have my eye on a great wetbag *wink* Her prices are very competitive and shipping is very reasonable.




Anne sent me the chocolate One Size KnickerNappie diaper to review. From the start, I knew that this was going to be a great diaper. Because it snaps on the side, a lot of the front bulk is reduced. The diaper over all was trim and not noticeable under her pajamas or jeans.



The dipe came with 2 inserts. We use 1 insert during the day and we stayed dry for 3 1/2 hours and even then it didn't leak. At night we used both insert and were dry in the morning. This will definatly be a long car trip diaper.




As of now, Emma is on the next to smallest side snap setting and will have 2 more snaps to go. However, most toddlers are potty trained before outgrowing their dipe.





Knickernappies OneSize Diapers have some great features: (from site)
~Four size adjustments to fit your baby best -- Small, Medium Short, Medium, and Large.
~Tested to fit babies from about 8 lbs to 40 lbs.
~Two microfiber inserts with every diaper, sizes small & large, and our inserts are Made in the USA!
~A scooped tummy panel & topstitching for best fit under chubby baby bellies.
~Elastic on both sides of the pocket opening to hold the insert in place.
~Very gentle Lastin elastic in the leg and waist - no red marks!
~Lastin elastic is long lasting and can't "go out" like regular elastic.
~Two Year Guarantee on elastic and snaps.

I am very impressed with my KnickerNappies Diaper and will be a returning customer at The Diaper Wagon.

Bet you want one, huh?

Head on over to The Diaper Wagon and have a look at all the diapers and accessories that they have to offer.

Flexi 8 Hair Clips Review and Giveaway

I have very thick, very curly hair. This limits me to the amount of things I can do with it on a daily basis. Typically, I will either wear it curly and use hair products to help my hair stay curly or I will pull it up in a pony tail. I have never been able to use a butterfly clip or a fancy barrette because my hair is too think and they just don't hold well.

When I was given the chance to review Flexi 8, I was very excited but also very skeptical. I have tried so many different fancy and expensive clips before with no luck.

About Flexi8:
“The Flexi 8 is a completely unique, flexible barrette that holds thick, thin, curly, straight, fine and coarse hair. The Flexi 8 comes in a variety of sizes and hundreds of ever changing styles. Flexi 8 uses an ingenious patented locking mechanism to secure it in your hair. It’s such an attractive and unique accessory for your hair, once you try the Flexi 8, LOOK OUT! (you’re in love)”

When I received my clips, I was very impressed with the quality and they were beautiful. I had clips to go with any outfit. I ran into the bathroom to try some styles right away. Again I mention that my hair is thick. I was sent a large, medium, extra small, small and mini. The small was perfect for pulling up about 1/4 of my hair on the top of my head. The medium allowed me to do the ponytail and with no problem. With the large I was able to do the tails up and it was beautiful. I did master the french twist but it was very tight so I think I need an X Large to do that one. I would strongly advise you to check out the video on sizing the Flexi8 before purchasing to make sure you have the correct size.

I was not able to use the mini or extra small in my hair but my daughter was able to use them and her hair and they worked great. These clips were able to hold her hair in place all day at school and that is impressive.




It takes a few tries to master using them though. I could not make my brain understand that the decorative part of the clip is flexible, not the pin part. Once I understood that, it was very easy to use and holds all day. And it was a genius that decided to connect the pin to the barrette so that nothing gets lost!

Bet you want one, huh?

Head on over to Flexi 8 and choose your size and favorite styles.

Bet you would rather win one, huh?

Flexi 8 is offering 2 clips to 1 lucky Luvn Life reader.

Gro Baby Diaper Review

I was very honored to have the opportunity to review a Gro Baby Cloth Diaper in Manderine Orange from Diaper Junction. A little on this great shop:

• Bryana provides amazing customer service
• Multiple Cloth Diapering Brands
• Baby Accessories
• Baby Registry
• Cloth Diaper Care Tutorial

I was very excited to work with Bryana. She was very professional with me and was very prompt in shipping the diaper. The Gro Baby diaper has impressed me and my husband the most so far. The diaper is a great combo between a g dipe and an AI2. The velcro area was actually soft unlike some competitors dipes. The elastic in the legs stretched well and did not leave marks on Emma's legs. I really enjoyed the design. I liked the simplicity of snaps and velcro. Once the diaper is snapped, you really don't have to change that until the baby is bigger, making this diaper change very easy. When I washed the diaper and line dried it, I noticed that the drying time is reduced. This is due to the liner and shell. The liner has 2 layers for extra absorbency but the two layers are not sewn all the way together, making them able to dry faster. But the best feature here is the absorbency. Emma sleeps through the night for as much as 10 hours. I put the diaper on her at 8 pm and she woke up at 7 am...no leaks, no rash! My husband was skeptical and said that he knew it would not hold her for the night. He ate his words : )

How does the one-size feature on my Gro Baby work? Simple actually.
Gro Baby will fit babies from 8-35 lbs. The Gro Baby Shell features three sets of rise snaps that adjust to fit your baby. The unique one-size Organic Soaker Pad fits from 8-35 lbs as well. When your baby wets, pop out the liner and pop in a new one. If the shell gets wet, allow it to air dry. It is only required to wash if the shell is soiled.

The only not so great feature is the price, starting at $24.95. But this price includes the shell, snap in soaker and organic booster.

You can begin your own stash of these wonderful diapers by visiting Diaper Junction.

**Many thanks to Diaper Junction for allowing me to review a Gro Baby Diaper. I received the above stated product for review. The opinions in this review are my own and receiving the product did not alter my opinion.**

Kissaluvs Diaper Review and Giveaway

In my diapering experience, I have tried several different diapers from many different brands. However, I had not tried a hybrid diaper yet. So when I was offered the chance to review the hybrid diaper from Kissaluvs, I was very excited.

One main reason that I have not tried these yet is because of the awkward fit. Not with this diaper. The material is very snuggly around Emma's legs and belly. She fits well into the size without adjustment but if I needed to make this dipe smaller, I would just tuck it to make the rise smaller. The elastic around the leg made the diaper successful in keeping it all in :)

The absorbency was very surprising. I was a bit worried about using a hybrid because it is not waterproof. I was very surprised that Kissaluvs attaches a microfiber soaker with a fleece topper to keep baby's skin dry and free from irritation.

I received the purple hybrid Kissaluv. The outside of the diaper is made in custom knit fleece and available in several colors. We did not use cover just to test out the length of time we could use without leaking. I was very impressed. I used the dipe for 4 hours and there was no leaking when we changed but the dipe felt damp. With a cover, the dipe could have lasted at least 1-2 more hours.

Overall, I was very impressed with the hybrid. They are very economical, priced at only $10.95. The only downfall was it took me several tries to get used to using a closure system. This only comes from my inexperience. With practice, it will be just as easy as a snap or velcro diaper.

Bet you want one huh?

Head on over to Kissaluvs and pick out your favorite color.

Bet you would rather win one, huh?

1 Luvn Life reader will have the chance to win the same Kissaluvs hybrid diaper in their choice of color.

Preston's Pants Review and Giveaway

I am so excited to have Preston's Pants in our event. From the first time I saw these diapers online, I was in love with them. They have the cutest prints and minky diapers. I know that cute shouldn't be a huge factor but who doesn't want their baby to have a cute bum?






We were able to review the Owl print, 1 mil soft, polyester pul, with matching micro fleece inner, and chocolate snaps. Emma said "Awww pitty diaper." This dipe came with the 2 liners; 1 for the pocket and 1 more for extra absorbency. I decided to give it the BIG test. Using both liners, I put Emma to bed for the night. I was pretty convinced that it would leak because most do regardless of if they claim to be waterproof. Well....It did not leak. It was very wet and heavy but it did not leak.


I love the leg gussets because they hold the mess in the diaper where it belongs. The adjustable snaps were great. They held together well, keeping the diaper tight but not so tight that it hurts her.

Also, the dipe was 1 of the slimmest that we have reviewed. This too I feel is important because you still have to put pants on your child. I do not think that bulky pants are cute at all.

This diaper is priced just right. The PUL runs $22.



Bet you want one, huh?

Rockin Green Review and Giveaway

As a cloth diapering mama, it is hard to find a detergent that is safe for my child and the earth that works with diapers and clothes. I have struggled to find a detergent that knocks out the horrible ammonia smells that diapers get sometimes.



I was very excited to be able to review Rockin Green detergent during the Diaper Event. I could not wait to wash all my dipes in the Rockin Green and have a fresh start with them all.





Rockin Green offers 3 different formulas. Classic Rock is the original formula and is for both dipes and clothes. Hard Rock is for cloth diapering mamas that have hard water problems. Soft Rock was formulated scent free and is for babies that have sensitive skin. The first 2 formulas are available in 10 yummy scents and unscented too!



Rockin' Green Soap is Dye Free, No Fillers, No enzymes or optical brighteners, 100% Phosphate free, Vegan, Great for sensitive skin, easy rinsing formula and approved military use. HE compatible, reusable packaging bag, great for all water types and Economical at about .13 cents a load.



I decided to soak the dipes for 1 hour before the wash. After the wash, the diapers smelled refreshed and clean. I also love that I can wash Emma's other clothing in the same detergent for simplicity...every little bit helps :)

Face It: What Women Really Feel as Their Looks Change

As I near the big 3-0, I have felt many new feelings about myself, my looks, my body. I remember a time when I thought 30 was so old. I look at the older and confident women that I come in contact with and wonder how it is that they are so proud of aging, wrinkles and gray hair. I have gone as far as to look into some plastic surgery to tighten up the face and perk up the ladies, no to mention dying the hair and using every anti wrinkle cream on the market.

So when I was offered the chance to read "Face It," I jumped on the opportunity. Just from reading the blurb on the website, I knew this was exactly the book I needed to read.

Face It is written by Vivian Diller Ph.D. and Jill Muir-Sukenick Ph.D. Both of these women are former model turned psychotherapists. These women have been on the side of beauty where nothing but the best is accepted. This is how the Western world views women. Now, they work closely with models on the other side...The side of developing a better view of yourself from the mental stand point, not the physical one.

This book goes in great deal about the 6 step plan to help one understand why and how you feel this way about yourself and then how to deal with the feelings. Healing from our child and adolescent thoughts and actions, examining our families and our roles within them, mourning our lost pasts and striving to be the best we can be at any age releases us from the masks we hide behind.

I greatly enjoyed reading Face It and greatly recommend all women to read this title. Even though this topic is a hard one to face, much less discuss, Face It approaches it in a way that teaches you to correct the thinking errors that most women has. Then you have the ability to be proud of who you are, regardless of age.

Bet you want one huh?

You can purchase your own copy on Amazon.com for $16.47
