KidsEmail has put together a fantastic program for kids to be able to use email. For awhile I wanted to create an account for my oldest who is 9 so she could email family and friends. However, I was hesitant to do so because of all the spam she could possibly receive and because the email I would have signed her up for doesn't have parental controls.

When I was offered the chance to review KidsEmail, I knew instantly it would be something both she and I would love. All of the features it comes with to protect her from unwanted email gave me peace of mind.

 

As you can see above, there are many ways to keep the stuff you don't want your children to receive out. Also, there are ways to prevent people you don't want contacting your kids from doing so. It's a pretty simple app.

I added myself to her approved contact list and sent her an email from my account. I also showed her how easy it was to send an email to someone else.

After I set up her email account, I handed the reins over to her. I allowed her to customize it to how she wanted. As you can see, she went with a pretty pink background. I knew she'd pick that one! Haha. She also chose a picture for her account.

As a parent, I really love this app. My daughter has used it for a few weeks now and really enjoys it. After receiving a tablet for Christmas, she can access it whenever she wants and I'll know she's in good hands. It's definitely worth trying out with your kids even if for right now you just try the 30 day free trial.

KidsEmail deserves every reward and recognition they have received, plus some in my book. I didn't have a single problem with this program online or even through the app. It runs fast and smooth.  I highly recommend this email program to any parent with kids who are social.

Bo-Po Nail Polish Review + Giveaway (Ends 12/29) #bo_po

Bo-Po Nail Polish Review + Giveaway

Bo-Po stands for Brush On - Peel Off. It's the cool new stylish nail polish for kids that makes a quick and easy, mess-free fashion statement in seconds. Bo-Po, (MSRP $3.99/each; various multi-packs up to $25), is recommended for ages 3 and up and comes in 10 vibrant colors and tinting shades for the most marvelous manicures and posh pedicures.

Bo-Po spreads on finger and toe nails just like regular nail polish, but unlike traditional polishes, Bo-Po does not contain any of the harmful chemicals or odors, and there isn't any need for harsh Acetone based remover because it simply peels off.

Bo-Po was developed as the alternative to make a child's manicure and pedicure fashion practice safe and fun. Bo-Po dries to the touch in less than 60 seconds and it can be peeled off to start over again. Each Bo-Po polish comes in a unique spill-proof bottle, which eliminates the risk of stains to clothes, floors or furniture as a result of accidental tipping. Amazingly, the bottles will not spill even if turned completely upside down.

Growing up, I never really cared too much for nail polish or all of the "girly things". I grew up as a tomboy. As a mom of two daughters, I know that chances are there may come a time where both get interested in said "girly things". Nail polish being one.

For my review, I received the Emerald, Cloudy Day and OMG! colors.

 I asked my oldest if she'd like to have her nails painted and she told me she did. So we sat down at the table and the process of "girly things" started. She enjoyed sitting there getting her nails painted and just talking with me. I knew she liked having them painted as she had them painted red for my oldest sister's wedding back in 2009.

As I was painting my oldest's nails, my youngest came over to see what was going on. She then wanted her nails painted too. So I had her pick out a color and painted hers too.

The thing I love the most about this nail polish is the peel off feature. If your nails get too messy, you can easily peel it off once it dries and try again. No having to deal with the disgusting smell of nail polish remover. It usually makes me want to gag whenever I smell it.

This nail polish also comes in many colors as shown above. I know the girls would like the pink colors, so this Mama is definitely going to look into getting them. I may even find myself using these in the future.

Fun product for kids and moms alike!

My little one LOVES reading books with beautiful pictures and easy to read words. For a 3 year old, she has quite the vocabulary and she's always itching to learn more. After she read over this book on my Kindle, she wanted to read it over again a few more times.

I read it over with her the first time. We went back through a couple more times and she did a pretty good job. The only letter's she had a problem on were N, Q and X. She doesn't know what a newt is yet. She nor I have never heard of a quetzal. I just know it's a bird. The picture helped her understand this as well. She also didn't know what an X-ray is yet as she has never had one. She did think the picture of the skeleton was funny though. Not knowing what these things are is in no way a bad thing. It just introduces her to brand new words for her to learn.

I feel the book is beautifully done. The pictures are clear and the text provided is easy to understand. I also like that it's an ebook because physical flash cards tend to get lost in our household and our little one likse to write all over them.

Any child will love this book. Makes a great collection to any ebook collection. As a mom, I think it's awesome and you can't beat the price.

It's no secret that my husband and I want to try again for another baby. I only wish when we were TTC before that we had such an awesome kit in our possession that would have helped out a GREAT deal along the way. Easy@Home has made such a kit for any couple in the TTC phase of their lives and relationship.

Before we had our youngest, we tried like crazy. I even had an app on my phone that would tell me when my most fertile days were. Of course that didn't end up helping us out any. So, we took the pressure off and it happened. Unfortunately, we lost that baby. Tried again a few months later and were blessed with our beautiful rainbow baby. 

This kit gives any couple peace of mind. It's there for you to use but at the same time not dwell on trying to get pregnant so much. It's basically a guide to increase your chances. If you focus on nothing else but getting pregnant, it's just not going to happen. It will happen when the time is right.

It includes 50 Ovulation tests and 20 Pregnancy tests. I can tell you that pregnancy tests come in handy for not only TTC but when you have a missed period. I can't even begin to tell how many times I ran out to get a pregnancy test only to end up paying a fortune just for a negative test. In this kit, 20 pregnancy tests along with 50 ovulation tests is a pretty darn good deal for what you pay.

You pee a little in a cup and use the tests with it to determine where you are in the TTC phase whether it be fertile, pregnant or not pregnant.

The process to use these is simple. The below photos will explain what you must do when you use the Ovulation test. Pretty simple, right?

The next photo shows what you do when you use the Pregnancy test.

Both of these tests are pretty simple and straight to the point. If it shows invalid, try again. There WILL be duds along the way but be patient. Stressing doesn't help the process out any. I stressed too much and I personally think that may have caused our miscarriage during our TTC phase the first time.

As a parent of 2, I look forward to the day we can add another member to our family. Right now, we're not in the TTC phase but if it happens, it's meant to be. I will still use these for the reasons they are intended and who knows. Maybe it could happen sooner than I think.

To all TTC couples, my best advice to you is TAKE YOUR TIME. Don't focus so much on trying for a baby that you lose sight of everything else around you. It will stress your partner out too. I know I drove my husband crazy trying for a baby although he did want to just as much as I did.

Easy@Home has made a great kit for TTC couples. For $21.99, you are getting well beyond your moneys worth in this product. As someone who has been through the TTC phase twice now, I HIGHLY recommend it.

The winter months tend to bring out the 'curling up and reading a good book' side of me. There is just something relaxing and comforting in laying on the couch or even in bed, curled up under a blanket with a good book whether it be an actual book or even an eBook.

Softy Sanitizing Wipes are great for any household with kids or even pets. As a mom of two who is married, we all have our messes from time to time. From dirt all the way down to sneezes and coughs.

I feel comfortable knowing I have a product in my household that works and makes me feel confident that germs and what not are being killed off. With a husband who gets a little OCD about germs it helps to have wipes like these around.

These Softy wipes smell really good and aren't overpowering and stinky like most other wipes of it's kind. I like that they include aloe and Vitamin E to keep my hands soft and not sticky when I use them. Also love that they can be used on the body.

I love using them to wipe off my counters after making a meal and dealing with raw meat of any sort or even raw eggs. No one wants to work with a dirty counter or set stuff on it and risk germs getting on stuff.

These wipes are extra large in size to make it easier to clean up any sort of mess and not have to keep grabbing more. As a mom of a toddler, this is a big must have. She likes to get into dirt or when she sneezes, she may not cover her mouth. Same goes with coughing.

They are also very soft hence why they are called Softy. No need to worry about rough wipes here folks! Great product and a big MUST HAVE for parents.

me4kidz products make me smile. They are so simple yet so fun and affordable too! I was given the chance to review the nail buddy starter kit for girls.

The packaging is so adorable and draws any little girl in. When I first received it, my 3 year old wanted to hold it and said the cat was pretty. I asked her if she'd like to paint her nails with me sometime and she told me yes. Of course she has never had her nails painted before and doesn't even know what nail polish is.

All of the products come inside a neat little case. It comes in either pink or lavender. It's not too big and is just the perfect size for little girls.

 

As you can see she liked everything she saw sitting on the table. She thought the stickers were pretty. I let her pick out which color polish she wanted me to use to paint her nails with and she told me purple. Afterwards, I put a couple stickers on her fingers once the polish dried.

She picked up the butterfly nail file and asked me what it was. I picked up the other and demonstrated to her what you do with it. She did a pretty good job imitating what I was doing.

I was also told that I needed to paint my nails. I had to paint one of mine first to get her comfortable enough for me to paint hers. She did a pretty good job sitting there watching me. She's still a little iffy about it but I think she did a great job overall. This is definitely going to lead to more fun moments with her. Her older sister isn't really into this kind of stuff right now, so I'm hoping down the road they can paint each others nails and spend time together like I did with my little one.

me4kidz products are of excellent quality and are unique in many ways. This would make a great gift for any little girl in your life. It's affordable and fun all wrapped up in one little package. Definitely many giggles and smiles ahead.

Ozeri 8" Green Earth Frying Pan Review #Ozeri

Product Name: 8" Green Earth Pan

Price: $21.00

#ozeri

• Unlike other ceramic pans,the Ozeri Green Earth Pan utilizes GREBLON - an ultra-safe ceramic coating from Germany which is 100% PTFE and PFOA free.

• Innovative textured pan surface delivers enhanced heat distribution and superior non-stick performance without ever releasing harmful fumes or toxins.

• Features a scratch-resistant 100 percent ceramic coating that is super easy to clean.

• Made out of durable heavy-gauge die-cast aluminum with no heavy metals or harmful chemicals.

• Boasts a comfortable heat resistant silicon coated handle and a magnetized induction stove safe base for rapid heat transfer.

Ozeri makes many items for the home. Out of their kitchen line, I think the 8" Green Earth Pan takes the cake for me. So well made and very easy to use. They use Textured Ceramic Non-Stick Coating from Germany on all of their pans. It makes for easy cooking and an even easier clean up.

My husband is the main cook in our home, so I gave him the privilege of trying it out first. The first thing he made it in was scrambled eggs, cubed ham and cheese to use in a breakfast wrap.

He didn't have to spray anything into the pan before usage. It cooked very nicely and there was no need to keep an eye on it to make sure it didn't end up burnt.

After the food got done cooking, the pan was almost clean itself before wiping or washing. With all of our other non-stick pans, we normally have to spray them down first and even then it's not always guaranteed that they will come out with hardly anything on them after cooking.

This Ozeri pan is amazing. My husband says it's his new favorite cooking item in the kitchen to use. I made myself a grilled cheese a couple days later and it still had the same effect. Easy cooking and very easy clean up. No burnt grilled cheese or leftover crumbs from the bread left behind.

What do I love the most about it? I love the easy clean up. As the person in the household who does the dishes, it makes it so much easier on me. I also love the equal heat distribution throughout the entire pan. No hot spots here or there.

Ozeri makes some pretty awesome and quality products. The Earth Pan will be loved by anyone who uses it. Makes a great gift for the cook in your life or for anyone.
