Review: Kymaro Cardi Wrap



Ladies, I have found my new favorite item of clothing, and it is the Kymaro Cardi Wrap! Thanks to the Family Review Network, I was recently given the opportunity to review this remarkable item? accessory? top? It is all of the above! I was amazed at the many different ways that this sweater can be worn!

I had lots of fun trying out my hand at the different configurations, and though I thought sure it might be more difficult to get the arrangements done than they looked in the brochure, it wasn't! I was very pleased with the weight and feel of the fabric, which feels quite silky! It is a very good weight: not too heavy to wear on fall or spring days, but thick enough to keep out a chill in winter. I was also delighted by the included accessory kit, which adds much to the versatility of the Cardi Wrap!

To add to the versatility, quality, and high fashion that this garment offers, the price just makes it a no brainer to purchase!! ALL these lovely styles for less than $50?! At this price, it would even be feasible to purchase it in several colors!

Still not sure? Please be sure to visit the Cardi Wrap website and watch the video on how the garment can cover up problem areas of your body! If I wasn't sold on this product before watching, I would have signed up then!

I am certain that the Cardi Wrap is going to be worn many times over in this household! But don't take my word for it....go check it out yourself!

Review: tshirtprinting.net

I don't know about you, but I'm a t-shirt wearing mama! There is nothing more comfortable to me than a loose t-shirt and some shorts or sweats. And as a working mom running around after 3 sons, I'm all about comfort when I'm home!

In the same vein, I don't think you can ever have too many t-shirts! I was thrilled when Family Review Network asked I'd like to review a shirt for TShirtPrinting.net! I jumped at the chance!

I was sent this cute tee to try!

I like it! Since I'm the mom of boys, I am all about having stuff for ME with pink, cause otherwise I'm surrounded by boy stuff and colors...that that I don't love them dearly....but I gotta get my girly estrogen stuff out somewhere, right? The shirt is high quality and comfortable to the touch. It isn't scratchy like some new t-shirts are when you first get them. I haven't washed it yet, so I'm not sure about shrinkage, etc. I'm impressed both by the quality of the shirt and of the screen print. It is a thick print and has no loose edges, etc.

TShirtPrinting.net offers a variety of products for printing, including men's, women's, and children's t-shirts, promotional items, work wear, sweatshirts, hoodies, and women's tanks. Here's a statement they make about their work:
Here at TshirtPrinting.net we have over twenty years experience in the screen printing industry and take pride in offering an honest, easy to understand way of doing business. We believe that you, our customer, are searching for someone to fulfil your printing needs without stress and with your satisfaction being our main aim.


Sounds like they'll do all they can to make your printing as easy and painless as possible!

So if you are needing something printed up, check them out! I'm very happy with my fun little tee from them, for sure! :)

Review and Giveaway: Mr Bo Finds a New Home and a New Name



I've had the pleasure of reviewing a precious new children's book called Mr. Bo Finds a New Home and a New Name. If you follow my blog, you probably know that I am a reading specialist, so children's books are near and dear to my heart! This book did not disappoint. Told from the point of view of a stray cat wanting to be adopted, I firmly believe that you and your child will fall in love with this story as quickly as I did!

You can learn more about Mr. Bo and his author on his website, MrBoBooks.com

Something else I really like about this book is that it comes with a FREE e-Live link to download the audio version of the book! This is a WONDERFUL idea! Not only can a child listen to the book alone this way, but this also makes the book much more helpful for students who might have difficulty reading. The more a child who struggles reading hears words read aloud, the more likely he or she is to remember the words and to be able to recognize them in print. There are many children who may struggle sounding out words successfully but can comprehend books well. This is ideal for that child! This also gives a child who is not yet a very fluent reader a good example of a fluent reading of the book. A child can then began to imitate the reading of the story, and thus become a more fluent reader in return!

I'm so excited that not only do I get to share the story of Mr. Bo Finds a New Home and a New Name with you, I also have a copy to give away! All you have to do to enter is tell me the name of one of your favorite children's books. That's it! I'll keep the giveaway open until April 2 at noon.

Thanks so much for dropping by and for entering the giveaway! I hope you enjoy the book as much as I do! Thanks again to the Family Review Network for the opportunity to review this book!

Control Car Clutter with the Kiddie Catch All!



Here's another product that has me saying,"How come I didn't think of that?!"

Introducing the Kiddie Catch-All!

Having recently re-entered the world of small toddler toys, I am starting to remember how frustrating it can be for my little one to not have toys or sippy cups available close by when he needs them, especially when his older brothers aren't in the car to help fetch said objects when Robbie drops them. The Kiddie Catch-All is perfect! It fits easily on the side of your child's car seat and is deep enough and has a wide enough opening to store all he or she needs within easy reach!

From the website:
Kiddie Catch-All™ is the perfect accessory for your car, truck or minivan! Fill it with books, toys, games, snacks, sippie cups...whatever your child wants is now right at their fingertips with the Kiddie Catch-All™. Never worry about picking things off the floor while driving again! And no more taking your eyes off the road! Keep your car organized, your family safe and your children occupied with the Kiddie Catch-All™.


We tried the Kiddie Catch-All out in my husband's car. We installed it on the side closest to the door, since both big boys also sometimes need to fit in the back seat with him. I was pleased to see that Robbie could reach it and the door handle cleared it, too! Perfect!

The website also is offering a buy one get one free offer, as well as a free bonus CD! Since Robbie has recently started dancing along to music, I'm sure we're going to get much use out of it, too!

These are not sold in stores, so to order one, visit the Kiddie Catch-All website! Thank you to Kiddie Catch-All and the Family Review Network for the opportunity to review this much-needed product!

Now if I could only get the big boys to control their clutter.....
