Beau-Coup $75 GC Giveaway - US - 3/6

Welcome to the Beau-Coup $75 Gift Card Giveaway!  With spring and summer coming, this makes for a great opportunity to save on some party favors and more if you win so good luck!

 

This is my second time working with Beau-coup and this time I got to experience their service and products first hand. Beau-coup has wonderful products for all occasions, including favors, gifts and decorations for birthdays, weddings, baby showers and more. They strive to help you make your event unique with high quality supplies. The company was established and launched in 2002 by Polly Liu shortly after her own wedding to make the planning process less stressful and more enjoyable. With my daughter's fifth birthday coming up in less than a month and a half, I decided to search around the site to see if I could find some great items for her party. If you haven't heard of this awesome company before today, they have corporate partners like Wedding Paper Divas and Tiny Prints. Both are quality companies so that tells you what kind of quality you can expect with Beau-coup. They have many kids' birthday themes and it took us all of five seconds to decide what Sadie's birthday theme would be this year. Beau-coup makes it incredibly easy to search for birthday items. You can choose the type of event {kids' birthday, teen birthday, etc.} to narrow your search as well as the type of item you are looking for {favors, supplies, decorations, gifts}. You could have a completely edible party with candy favors, gumballs, chocolate covered cookies and more. You can also personalize your items. We decided to search for the birthday kits to get the all-in-one experience.

   

Read Kara's full Beau-coup review here. One lucky winner will get to experience Beau-coup's high quality products with a $75 gift code {excludes taxes/shipping/special fees}.

Neater Feeder (Pet) Giveaway - US - 3/4

Welcome to the Neater Feeder Giveaway!  This is a great giveaway if you have pets and please note that this Review/Giveaway is done by Kathy's Freebies & Savings.

   

Do you have cats or dogs? If you do then you know how much of a mess they can make. I have two cats that are usually very lazy cats. They just like to lay around the house and do nothing. Sometimes they will get up to play but otherwise they just lay around the house. When the cats get up to go get a drink or eat, they usually make a mess. I've seen water spilled on the floor as well as food. Usually its food that's all over the floor. It would be nice to have something that would help with pets not making such a mess. Luckily there is, and it's called the Neater Feeder.

   

The Neater Feeder is designed to take out the mess from meal times. It helps to reduce the mess and damage to floors. The protective walls help to save your floors from water and food damage. All the food gets caught in the upper reservoir and the water will get caught in the lower reservoir. Neater Feeders are available in three sizes for dogs and one size for the cats.

   

You're able to attach legs to the bottom of the feeder to add height. Adding the legs seemed to make it difficult for my cats to eat or drink so I decided to keep the legs off and it worked out great. The rubber inserts prevent the feeder from scratching the floor. I've had cat dishes that move around when the cats are eating or drinking. They can cause unwanted scratches on the floor.

   

As you can tell my cat really enjoys the Neater Feeder. As soon as I set it up he came running to get a drink of water. I actually have two cats and they both really love it. My cats are usually messy eaters and have food all over the floor after their done eating. With the Neater Feeder there is no food anywhere but inside the feeder. I love how it catches the food and water instead of letting it get on the floor. Wouldn't you love to not have to keep cleaning up after your pets meal times? The Neater Feeder has helped me keep the pets feeding time area a lot cleaner. All the food and water gets caught in the feeder so it's never on the floor. What a great way to keep your pets feeding area cleaner. Want to win one for one of your pets? Just enter with the form below for a chance to win one . Good luck to everyone.

Ivy Bridge College (IBC) $1000 Tuition Discount Giveaway 2/25

As a woman, you know how vital an education is.  As mothers, we also know the importance of a degree in this world that is ever more competitive.  Many moms juggle a career with children while others are stay at home moms.  Both are equally important and challenging and both require the ability to stay competitive in the work force whether in the now or the future.  Based on my experiences, many women who are stay at home moms, either by choice or necessity, put their families and children first while not having the time to invest in their futures.  With the advances in technology and the internet, attending school is easier now than in the past.  Online schools such as Ivy Bridge College (IBC) is ideal for us moms.  Did you know that over 600,000 moms attend school?

I started out very early in my education path as I married and started college at 19 and then had my first daughter right after turning 20.  For the next four years, I continued my endeavors until I received my Bachelor of Science.  This was one of the smartest moves I had ever made as it made me marketable and gave me an edge.  I continued on working on a Masters which I do admit that career and home put a stop to it but I now feel that I am well equipped in pursuing a Masters now.  I think pursuing higher education while having children at home is ideal in impressing upon them the importance of learning and improving ourselves.  I know as a mom, it's hard to juggle everything but in the long run, it's worth it.  

I was the only one from my immediate family to attend school but I think my pursuit of a degree inspired my mom to attend and within two years, she had received her Associates in Science degree.  Needless to say, I was proud of her as a mom, I know how hard it is to achieve something like that while working and having children.  My oldest is now working on her degree and I think that my success has reinforced her desire to follow in my footsteps.

IBC is one of those schools that wants their students to achieve success.  It's a great choice for moms given their unique support services called Success Coaching.  This feature allows students to meet weekly for academic advising, time management tips, study tips, referrals to free tutoring and more.  They also offer a private online student community only for moms, schedule flexibility and the best part is, you can earn an Associates degree in as little as 17 months.  This is important as we know time is important and being able to shave off time to achieve that degree helps to motivate knowing the wait isn't too long.  Another equally important fact is that the credits do transfer to over 150 "name brand" partner four year degree institutions.  IBC also costs 1/3 less of what it costs to attend other private schools.

IBC offers degrees in the following:

• Accounting
• Business
• Communications
• Computer Technology
• Criminal Justice
• Finance
• General Studies
• Healthcare
• Management
• Marketing
• Psychology
• Sports & Recreation
• Undeclared

WoodSnap Original Print on Wood Company Review and 11"x14" Giveaway 3/8 - US/Canada

Welcome to WoodSnap, the original print on wood company, review and giveaway!

Preserving memories is a vital part of family history.  I not only think of my family in the present but I also think about future generations and what I can leave behind as our memories.  I also look for unique gifts to give others and pictures are a big part of that tradition mostly because it's a personalized gift.  Since the digital age, I've been bad about preserving my memories in a non-digital manner.  This past summer, I took my girls and grandbaby to the local rose garden and just loved how the pictures turned out which made this particular photo perfect to be turned into my own masterpiece by WoodSnap.  WoodSnap is known as the original print on wood company thus providing 15 years of experience, expertise and quality behind what they deliver.

The picture above shows the 11x14 on the ready to hang wood canvas.  The grain is visible offering a unique aspect to the photo but it's not too visible to distort the beauty of the canvas.  I was taken back by how beautiful it turned out and can admit, I was sort of skeptic thinking it would look just alright but it's gorgeous.  Other than the quality being phenomenal, I really like that they are ready to hang.  To me, there is nothing worse than having to hammer in my own hardware to hang a picture.  I also like that they are made in the USA and have a satisfaction guarantee policy. 

The ordering process was very simple with choosing the size of wood canvas (16 different sizes) you want, uploading the photo and then ordering as WoodSnap does the printing and shipping.  You can even pick up some photo ideas from WoodSnap.  As a bonus, for every WoodSnap they sell, they plant a tree with their partnership with American Forests!

Overall, I am extremely happy with the quality, workmanship and the customer service from WoodSnap and would recommend this as a gift to someone or even just a heirloom to pass down to a loved one.

One 11x14" Wood Canvas Giveaway!

If your kids have curly hair, you don't want to miss out on this one!  Ouidad, the curl expert, have partnered up with Annie on Broadway.  If you decide to enter, you will watch a cute video from two of the little stars of Annie on Broadway that drew my girls out from their rooms to see the two cuties talking.  Annie is a long time favorite of many and I think the red hair and curls can help relate to other little girls when they realized that they should just "be yourself."  My oldest has really curly hair and straightens it.  My middle one was born with curly hair but now it's just wavy and my youngest has fairly straight hair.  The curliness did arise from me and I've always had a hard time with managing them.  I've never tried Ouidad's line of specialized products that are formulated to embrace one’s naturally curly hair.

You can take part in the "It's the Curly Life for Us" sweepstakes as the brand invites all fans to enter to win a trip to New York City to see Annie on Broadway and have a curl makeover with a friend at the Ouidad flagship salon.  To see the curl makeover that Annie’s pint-sized Broadway stars, Tyrah Skye Odoms and Taylor Richardson, received, and to enter the sweepstakes, enter on the Ouidad Facebook page or the link below:

That's not all, now through February 28, 2013, curly kids can visit the Ouidad New York City flagship salon for a KRLY Kids haircut ($75 special rate), styling lesson and complimentary gift bag.  To book a consultation, please call 212-888-3288 and mention “The Annie Promotion.”  I used to live near New York City and if I still did, I'd definitely take my girls to Ouidad's.  If you do reside in NYC, you can visit them at:

Ouidad New York Flagship Salon

37 West 57^th Street, 4^th Floor (between 5^th and 6^th Avenues)

New York, NY 10019

Celebration of Love Week Free PAJANIMALS Valentine's and DVD Giveaway 2/28 - US

Celebration of Love week is coming up fast marking the day of love with Valentine's Day.  Valentine's Day is a day for both children and adults as both get to participate and show their love.  I think children get to have a bit more fun since they can make lots of Valentine's Day cards and celebrate it with a group of their peers.  Even if children are not in school, they get to have a lot of fun and PAJANIMALS can be a big part of the celebration from free printable Valentine's Day cards to watching a cute DVD.

Watch Cowbella, Apollo, Sweetpea Sue and Squacky on their own television series which airs nightly on the 24-hour preschool television channel Sprout® during its The Good Night Show.  It also can be seen on NBC on Saturday mornings as part of the NBC Kids programming block. The Jim Henson Company co-produces this fun show along with Sprout and Sixteen South Television.  All those Muppets fans might see a bit of that flavor mixed in with these delightful characters.  You can catch up the PAJANIMALS activities and videos here.

The shows are colorful with playful songs which captivate the little one's attention.  They also have an underlying message such as feelings, everyone is different and tomorrow is another day.  The messages are cute and are at the level that children can relate to.  My two year old grand daughter and my five year old enjoyed the videos.  My five year old had fun with the Valentine's Day cards and other activities online.  As usual, Sprout hits a homerun with this one!  I'm glad that there are trusted sites I can let my girls explore and have fun while learning.

OtterBox Protects #OtterKids #spon

We have so many devices in our house from game consoles to iPhones to an iPad to a Kindle Fire. We are a very techy family as I truly believe that everyone can learn a lot more from technological advances. With the increase in technology comes more electronics and more portability along with more usage from children. These devices cost so much that you want to ensure there is adequate protection from the accidental drops, the frustrated mistreatment and the fighting over whos turn it is. OtterBox is protecting my iPhone and iPad and to date, it hasn't failed me. I chose OtterBox due to their reputation and the number of devices they cover.

I have the Defender Series case that fits our 2nd generation iPad. It has multi-layer technology built in with high-quality materials to create a rock-solid protective solution. The rugged silicone outer-layer absorbs the impact from bumps and shocks while the textured exterior provides enhanced grip. The built-in screen protector prevents scratches, smudges and fingerprints from getting on your screen. I really like the shield stand as it not only acts as a protective cover on the front or the back but it doubles as a stand for typing or viewing.

For my iPhone, I have the Defender Series case that fits the 4S and has three layers of protection against drops, bumps and shocks.  This is great because I don't carry a purse and I'm more prone to drop it.  The built in screen protector prevents scratches and smudges which is great for my children.  What is also nice about OtterBox is the ability to choose from a variety of styles and colors.  There are also other series pending your lifestyle and need for protection.

OtterBox is really a great place to purchase the extra protection for your smart phones  and devices.  I like the ease of use, the availability of colors and styles along with the fact that I can find them easily for purchase.  They may cost a bit more but it's worth having the protection of not having to purchase a replacement device if dropped or mistreated.  We are definitely an OtterBox family and recommend them.

Find OtterBox at the following social media sites:

Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/otterbox
Twitter: https://twitter.com/otterbox
Instagram: http://instagram.com/otterbox

*Disclosure: I received a case for the value up to $60 for this review.  I had purchased an iPhone case prior to this review.  All opinions are of my own.

Poptropica Nintendo DS Game Review #UbiPoptropica #spon

Thank you to Ubisoft for sponsoring this post. Please click here to learn more about Ubisoft. I was selected for this opportunity as a member of Clever Girls Collective. #UbiChamps

My girls are big game fans and we have many different gaming systems to prove it.  They swap out pending their moods and the situation.  The Nintendo DS is perfect for on the go or just in another room when they want some alone time.  The girls both have an Nintendo DS and used to have a lot of games but over time, they have lost them.  They did have an opportunity to review the Poptropica game for their Nintendo DS and enjoyed it.  Another great game choice from Ubisoft and I definitely can say we are an Ubi family.

Poptropica has six basic games ranging from catch, two mazes, jumping, racing and a dodge game.  At the end, there is an arcade game that adds to the fun factor. The graphics are good and the game is great for the younger ones.  Older children might get bored since there aren't many islands.  All children love to create their own avatar and the hunt for cool gadgets is always fun while they move forward on the quests.  It is rated E for everyone and has no violence which I like.

Overall, it's a fun game for children and I found that my five year old enjoyed it the most.  It's a good on the side learning game as it allows small motor movement skills.  

You can purchase Poptropica for Nintendo DS at Amazon or Toys-R-Us.

Mrs. Fields' Little Bit of Love Giveaway 2/22 - US

This Review/Giveaway is done by Kathy's Freebies & Savings.

Valentine's Day is coming up soon? Do you know what you're going to get your significant other? Maybe you plan to buy your mother or any special lady or man in our life something. I know it can be hard to find the perfect gift for someone. You want everything to be special and have the right gift. How about some cookies from Mrs. Fields? If you haven't heard of Mrs. Fields yet, you're in luck. They have the best cookies. I did a review on some of their cookies before. If you haven't checked that out make sure to take a look at it. It was for a Winter Flurry Snowman package.

   

This time I was provided with a Valentine's box from Mrs. Fields. It's called the Little Bit of Love Box. It came with 18 nibblers bite sized cookies and 2 hand frosted heart cookies. All the cookies are soft and moist. I would have to say these are my favorite brand of cookies. They also sent me a 20% off card which I'll be able to use on an order.

   

 I really enjoyed the chocolate chip and triple chocolate cookies. My husband and daughter ate the heart cookies before I was able to take a close up photo of them. I got a little piece from my daughter and it was so delicious. I love how soft the cookies are. You can see a photo above of the heart cookies. They are sugar cookies with frosting on top. I normally don't care for frosting, but this frosting was different. It was extremely good.

 

 If you're looking for some Valentine cookies for someone or maybe even yourself, check out Mrs Fields cookies. They have a lot of different options for Valentine gifts. Many other items to choose from as well.

Get Ready for Fun with Marvel Avengers Battle For Earth #CleverAvengers

Thank you to Ubisoft for sponsoring this post. Please click here to learn more about Ubisoft. I was selected for this opportunity as a member of Clever Girls Collective. #UbiChamps

Get Ready for Fun with Marvel Avengers Battle For Earth!  This Xbox 360 Kinect game by Ubisoft is the game in my house.  My girls, like most kids, love to play present and super heroes is right up there in the fun, fun, fun department.  Each of my girls have a favorites to include my future son-in-law.  The girls actually tease one another as to which boy is their favorite.  This game was ideal after watching the Avengers as they were able to choose out of one of the 20 characters they wanted to be each having four unique super powers.  As with the Xbox 360, no controllers are necessary leaving that cool techy space age feel of using your hands and body to coordinate with the game console.  

The girls didn't pay much attention to it since they are 5 and 9 but my son-in-law and I noticed the graphics are really nice and the voice overs sound pretty true to form.   The ultra moves were a hit among all of us since you get to control how many moves such as punches and swings you can pull off.  As a bonus, it provides physical activity too!   You can go solo or have a buddy to fight with and it's easy to maneuver around that a nine year old figured it out.  My five year old had a bit harder time playing it but that is understandable given her age.  There are limitations playing on the Kinect but that is with the system itself and making sure you have enough room to play.  Overall, it's a fun filled game and provides a great family night especially if you have one or more who like the Avengers.  In our house, it was a win!
