Ozobot Party Sponsored by Tryazon

Image
This weekend, we got to host the most fun and most coolest party Ever! My kids and I got to try out the new Ozobots with our friends! These things are Awesome. They are little round robots and they come with little hats so you can personalize them and have little cases you can put them in. You can teach your kids to code with them and in turn teach the robots to do mazes, have contests, and dance, etc. These things are so much fun. We definitely had a blast. These little ozobots are easy to use. You just want to calibrate them. You can use the card inside the package or a white screen on your phone or tablet. We used the card. It even comes with its own maze. You turn it on and put it down on the maze card and watch it go. The kids learned that different colors mean different things to them and even got to color and make their own mazes for them using different colored markers. It was so fun because the kids were so excited and these things were so darn cute. I did get to try ...

Sweet Creations and Tryazon #UglySweater Party

Image
I got to host a blast of a party yesterday! It was a FREE Sweet Creations #UglySweater Party thanks to Tryazon and we had cookies and treats and delicious food! We also got to test out this awesome and huge ugly sweater cookie cutter and stamp roller! My complete party pack also included decorative boxes and paper for packing baked goods to give away as gifts. The boxes were easy to fold and looked so cute with their Christmas design. And the paper was cute too. It was striped in Christmas colors and has a good thickness. We also got a few pairs of mini Christmas spatulas! Now those were a big hit too. We loved cooking with them. We make chocolate chip cookies, peanut butter cookies, and sugar cookies. We make these huge ugly sweater cookies with each of the types of batter as well as other Christmas shaped and round cookies. Then we decorated them with frosting and used stamp roller. Each of my guests got to take home some cookies in their boxes they got and some got a set of min...

Seneo Charging Pad! Charging Simplified! Review

Image
Now this is awesome technology! This Seneo charging pad is soooo cool. It has LED lighting so it lights up this pretty blue color when you first plug it in and when you charge your phone. You can use the charger cord it comes with but I found my own charger cord from my phone works too so I just leave the cords and take the charging pad with me to where I'm going to be, like my bed side table or kitchen counter and plug in and then set phone on it. I have a thin case on my phone but it worked through that and charged pretty quickly. If you have a thicker case, you may need to take that off before using. It works with almost any Qi-enabled device so iphones, androids, etc. The charging pad is pretty lightweight and it didn't get hot when charging either. I love it. The price is actually a pretty good deal because I have seen them way more expensive. And this brand is not cheap per se. It really does work great. I love technology these days. Everything is so cool ...

Label Label Key Caps! Personalize and Label Your Keys!

Image
I recently tried these Label Label Key Caps and loved them! You could even win a set for yourself. Read on to find out how! I've been looking for something like this for a while but didn't know which ones to choose. I am always labeling everything I can. It makes life so much easier I think. And this is a great deal by the way. The 8 caps, plus the amount of labels you get for this price is awesome. The caps are bright and sturdy and easy to apply to your key as you just slip it on. I suggest cutting the label to fit your key and applying first as directions say, then carefully sliding cap over it. I even got extra labels to print my own now. And its pretty easy using the templates on my computer. I love these and have found a use for all of them and now I need more! You can find these here on Amazon http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HCS8D4I?ref_=cm_rdp_product I did receive this product for free but the experience and opinions here are my own.

Brainstream Beep Egg! It Sings When The Eggs Are Done!!!

Image
I recently got to try out the Brainstream Beep Egg for free thanks to Tryazon and I have to say, this is one of my FAVORITE product testing projects ever! How cool is a singing egg? So when you make hard boiled eggs, you always are guessing how long to boil them and sometimes you boil too long or not enough. This beep egg solves that issue. You put it in the pot with the eggs in cold water and turn on the stove and let it sit. When they are done, it will sing! It Sings 3 songs, but "Oh, Susanna" is my favorite! It was so cool! And then, when you want it to stop, you just put it in cold water! Easy peasy! This is something you do Not want to put in the microwave, or try to take it apart. The orange color makes it stand out, so you don't get confused on which egg is the beep egg. All in all, I loved it. We made breakfast and lots of hard boiled eggs at our brunch, then made a potato salad for later. It worked awesome. They came out Perfect! Go check out http...

Natural and Organic Sun Protection That Really Is Safe and Wonderful!

Image
I recently got to try the Goddess Garden Sunny Natural Sunscreen through Swaggable and was so excited. I am a mom of 3 kids and we are pretty active. While being active, I also want my kids to b e safe and protected. But one of the things I use to protect my kids, is sunscreen, and most brands have come out to be more harmful than once seemed. This brand is not one of them. This brand is safe and effective and great not only for us but it is environmentally friendly too. It is made up of organic ingredients and biodegradable. I love that. That means I am protecting my kids and not trading one protection for another by placing harmful toxins on them, only for them to soak into their skin.   What you should be aware of is certain practices when using this. I suggest applying before you leave the house so that it takes the time of traveling to soak in for full protection. If not possible, wait the recommended time before sun ecposure. Apply quickly and re-apply after swimming...

RoosterFin Game Night - Most Fun In a Long Time!

Image
Tonight, thanks to Tryazon and RoosterFin Games we got to host a Game Night! It was a blast and we got to play 3 different and very fun games! I don't think I've had this much fun in a long time. Below are each of the games we tried and what it was like. They also have other games on Amazon as well. Here's the link: http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_1?url=search-alias%3Dtoys-and-games&field-keywords=roosterfin I highly suggest you check them out. They are fun and easy to set up and play and challenging too! Lumpy Cubes This is a really cute and fun game. It is very easy to play and to set up. You give each player (up to 4 players) a set of the colored blocks which all have different faces on them, on both sides. So it can get confusing because the 2 sides has a different face. Then set the cards in the middle. The cards each have pictures of the blocks in a stack of four in a certain pattern that you are supposed to stack yours like. To play the game, flip one...

Ukloo Treasure Hunt - Learn To Read and Seek Treasure!

Image
Ukloo is the cutest, most fun treasure hunt game ever! I love it. My kids and I had so much fun playing it. They kept wanting to find More treasure! Then when we ran out of candy, they kept playing it and my older son was trying to help his little sister play by reading to her or pointing at the poster so she could guess. It was a total blast! I love that it has 3 different levels and is made to help teach kids to read or read better. It makes it fun for the whole family. It comes with "clues" for the 3 different levels, as well as cards to write your own clues and cards to write your own surprises or winners prizes on.  You just pick the clues and the kids have to read them and guess the answer and then look for the next clue, until they find the TREASURE! The makers even have an info page where they list different types of prizes you can use, for example, candy, toys, etc! It comes with a poster of items on the cards to help kids identify item and words as well a...

Scentalicious Bath Bombs Seriously Cool Fizzing Action!

Image
I recently got to try this Giant Bath Bomb Gift Set for Ladies Who Love to Relax in the Bath . "The " Pure Relaxation " Bath Set From Fizz Bath Bombs Includes 3 Massive Bombs in Relaxing, De-stressing and Calming Scents, Loaded with Shea Butter. Make It a Bath to Remember." I recently tried 2 of these 3. I still have one more to try. I wasn't sure what to expect exactly. But I thought they would just dissolve like other bath salt like products. These are really cool to watch. They literally fizz and dissolve. The lavendar one smelled so wonderful and was so soothing. But it also had seeds in it. It was the first one I tried and I saw the seeds, only a few at first but didn't realize how many seeds were in it. It fizzed away and more seeds came out. At first it was creepy. The fizzing made it look like bugs. It was kind of cool looking though and it turned my water blue and I felt like I was relaxing in a nature pond. But I could have done without th...

Vicks Smart Temp Thermometer and FREE App!

Image
I recently got to try this new Vicks Smart Temp Thermometer and FREE App download for free, as part of a product trial, thanks to Influenster . To be honest, my first thought was like really? Another thermometer? What could set this apart from the rest? But I was actually positively surprised by how much I liked this. It is waaayyy different from the rest. First off the temp shows up on the app on your phone, not the thermometer. Secondly, the app let's you create profiles of the people in your family or the people you will use this on and keeps a history of temperatures. It also has other features like frequently asked questions, and other tabs. The thermometer itself is very simple and sleek. It has a button on the top to turn it on and once you sync with your phone and set it up, which is really quick and easy, it's so easy to use and is great for keeping track of when you or your child got sick and what the Temps were at which times, etc. I really liked how the thermomet...

Yummy Chicken Stuffing Casserole!

Image
Tonight I am making a delicious chicken stuffing casserole for dinner and I thought I'd share the recipe. I've been making this for years and my whole family loves it. Ingredients: 1/2 cup butter 4 Chicken breasts (or 6 tenderloins) cut up into bite size pieces 2 cups of Chicken Stuffing or use whole box and mix in. (Your preference) 1 can of Chicken broth (or use chicken bullion cubes and water) 1 can of Cream of Chicken soup 1 can of Cream of Celery soup Grated cheese as desired (Other veggies optional: corn, green beans, carrots, etc) Also optional: 1/3 cup sour cream You can either mix chicken in with mix or layer at the bottom. Also, you can either put it in the pan as is, uncooked, or fry it up to cook it a little. I always fry it up a little then put it in. Prepare the stuffing as directed and melt butter into it for flavor if desired. And if using bullion cubes, bowl water and cubes til dissolved. In other bowl, mix the 2 cans of soup, broth and if applica...

Sweet, Sweet Success at my Rhodes Bake-N-Serv Sponsored Party!

Image
Ok, so we have all tried cinnamon rolls before, whether made from kits or from scratch or in a store or restaurant. They are delicious! But have you tried Rhodes Bake-N-Serv ? Today, I threw a taste test party with my friends, where we got to try these out thanks to Tryazon and Rhodes Bake-N-Serv . I got Free coupons as well as other $1 off coupons for my guests, a baking mitt with their logo and a host guide with tips, ideas, and games as well as info on the company and their products. First off, I am going to say that I haven't ate a cinnamon roll this good in a long time. Honestly. I have tried other brands and their quick fix rolls and they just don't taste as good or as fresh and some leave a weird after taste and my friends agreed. OK so if you don't know the Rhodes brand, these are very high quality products at reasonable prices. This is not just your pop in the oven and be done in ten minutes kind of fixings, but they do have easy quick fix in the microwave cinn...

Go Off road with the new Truggy Remote Control Car

Image
We love this  Truggy Remote Control Car ! This was so much fun, and works awesome. It looks really cool and is made pretty well. It doesn't seem as cheap as others we have gotten in the past. I am saving it as a surprise for my 10 year old son, but my 4 year old daughter and I had a blast testing it out. It has huge tires that have deep grooves for massive traction and it has a pretty cool looking design on the shell of the car. The tires even have the ability to move around like if you were making it go over a bump or a small "hill." I really liked the remote design. It is comfy to hold and easy to use. The trigger function moves the car, while the "steering wheel" on the side controls the left and right direction. It even has a lever on the bottom of the car with a left and right switching mechanism too but I'm not sure what that is for. It came with 2 AA batteriesfor the remote and 2 sets of 4 AAA batteries for the car, so you even have an ex...
