KINeSYS Sunscreen giveaway- CLOSED

KINeSYS and PTPA (Parent tested Parent Approved) are sponsoring my first ever giveaway!

One lucky blog reader will win a wonderful KINeSYS sunscreen prize pack!
I've recently discovered the KINeSYS products, and they are amazing. Their sunscreen is a must have for all your families summer activities. KINeSYS has won the PTPA green award and is featured as one of PTPA Spring Winners for 2009!

I am always looking for the safest possible products for my family, and i was thrilled to learn that KINeSYS was picked as the SAFEST and MOST EFFECTIVE spray sunscreen by the EWG (Environmental Working Group) out of almost 1000 sunscreens that they tested.

All of KINeSYS Sunscreens are very gentle, fast drying, alcohol and oil free and do not contain PABA. KINeSYS also shows respect for mother earth- and uses recycled materials in all of their packaging, features non-aerosols pumps, and does not test on animals.

Included in this prize pack: A large bottle of their new SPF 30 Girls Sunscreen Spray (with Vitamin E and a yummy Vanilla scent). Also included is a travel bottle of SPF Girl and their award winning KINeSYS for kids.

Mocobabies Signing Flash Cards Review


My baby girl and i have been having a blast with these Mocobabies Signing flash cards.

I bought them because i have been signing with my little one for a few months, but I find it so hard to be consistent. I also find having to flip through my signing book just doesn't happen as often as I'd like. These cards make teaching baby signing easy and accessible.

The cards feature babies first signs such as eat, more, finished, and milk. The set also includes some common foods, animals, and toy signs. One side of the cards has the word printed with instructions as well as pictures of how to sign (for parents to read and learn). The other side of the card has a cute picture of the object with the word printed clearly. So baby can begin to recognize printed words, which will be great for building early reading skills.

The set comes with 35 brightly colored cards, and a great tin case for storage.

The cards are laminated with rounded corners making them are durable, wipe-able, and almost impossible for baby to rip apart.

I'm not the only ones who love these cards- they have won the iparenting media award.

Mocobabies also has a great blog called Hip Baby Signing
