Description:
If you are looking for a chair that you can take anywhere with you and that you can use from ages 3 months to generally 14 months (depending on size) then this Bumbo Chair would be great!
Review:
It holds a baby up so you won’t be stuck holding him up. This way you can be there to interact with him better. It is a circular chair that has a dip in it for the babies to rest. The circular leg cuts hold your babies legs in. It is made out of foam, so if they are to run into it, they won’t get hurt. This chair is much smaller then most high chairs. It is great for taking to restaurants so your baby can sit in a seat at the table. It also has the option to buy the tray for the highchair. It is great and has easy clean up.

Description:
BumGenius cloth diapers by Cotton Babies are designed to make cloth diapering easy for every-day people like your babysitter, grandparents and even dad. Using a BumGenius cloth diaper is just like using a disposable, but you don’t throw it away! Just wash it and they’re ready to go again. They come in a variety of beautiful colors like Blossom Pink and Grasshopper Green.
They are pocket diapers, which allows you to use the type of insert that meets your absorbency needs. Although the included microfiber insert should be sufficient. BumGenius also offers an all-in-one diaper, which is a one-piece diaper that most closely resembles a disposable. Plus,BumGenius diapers have neat stretchy tabs that make diapering even the wiggliest babies a breeze.
Review:
The best thing about these diapers by far is that they are one-size-fits-most. They will fit babies between 6 and 35 pounds, so there’s no need to buy a bunch of diapers in different sizes. Ingenious! Cloth diapering has never been so easy!
BumGenius one-size cloth diapers offer an industry first, stretch-to-fit tabs (patent pending). The comfortable fit and simple design make cloth diapering as easy as using disposables. This simplicity makes the BumGenius one-size cloth diaper perfect for care providers who might be resistant to cloth diapering including daycares.

Product Name:
Danger Rangers Mission 547 Safety Rules! DVD
Submitted by:

Rating: 10
Description:
40 minute animated DVD showing children safety rules through the use of cute, animal superheroes named the Danger Rangers.
Review:
This DVD gets my two thumbs up! I viewed it with my three year old daughter over the weekend and couldn’t believe the reaction I got from her. I try to keep our usual viewing to semi-educational shows that help teach values, manners, songs, etc. This one was right down our alley. She was humming and singing the songs by the second go around.
These animated superheroes called the Danger Rangers are housed in their secret headquarters(cleverly disguised in the head of George Washington in Mt. Rushmore. A super computer named SAVO organizes the Danger Rangers. The Danger Rangers are alerted when safety violations are being committed and they rush to the rescue to teach families and children the different safety rules regarding: home, biking, strangers, calling 911, fire, and pool/water. Their motto…SAFETY RULES!
This DVD has Spanish and English available on one disc and there are some cute bonus songs such as "911," "Wheels," and "Rules of the Road". These are catchy tunes and lyrics to help the kids learn and retain the safety rules.
The viewing range covers a broad age bracket as my 10-yr old also enjoyed sitting with his little sister to watch and sing along.
Show #8 - Take Care of Yourself First

Moms, we’re all guilty of putting our families and job responsibilities ahead of our own needs at one time or another. We use the common excuses of “There’s not enough time” or “There’s not enough money” or “The kids need that more than I do”. In fact, if we ignore our own basic needs then we aren’t in the best of moods and that affects our families in a negative way.
This week I shared my own experience of being in the duldrums and how I pulled myself out simply by taking the time to do something special for myself. I am NOT saying to go on a huge shopping spree whenever you feel sad!! Instead, take some time to do something to help you relax or to feel better about yourself. It can be as simple as buying a new lipstick, getting your nails done, or calling a girlfriend to chat.
A happy mom = a happy family!

Description:
The Disney Mix Stick-High School Musical in Orange is a MP3 player for children that will play songs two ways. The first way to play songs is by the SD/MMC card slot, this slot plays WMA/MP3 songs that have been saved to SD/MMC cards. You can also buy SD/MMC cards that already come preloaded with music onto the cards. The Disney Company sells them under the name of Mix Clips. The Mix Clips offer the convenience of a full CD’s worth of songs in one little SD/MMC card.
The second way that the Disney Mix Stick-High School Musical in Orange plays songs are to take them directly from your computer. To do so is very easy, simply take the end off of the Disney Mix Stick-High School Musical in Orange and plug it directly into your computer. Any songs from your computer that are in the MP3/WMA format can be loaded unto your Disney Mix Stick-High School Musical in Orange player. It also comes with software to load to your computer to help you with the copying of music files from your computer to your Disney Mix Stick-High School Musical in Orange player.
Review:
Both my son and my daughter have the Disney Mix Stick-High School Musical in Orange. They received them for their birthdays. They are made very sturdy and have lasted very well. I have had no problems with transferring songs from my computer to the player. I give this product a 5 star rating.
The buttons on the Disney Mix Stick-High School Musical in Orange MP3 player are very easy to use. There are buttons for functions that include, fast forward, rewind, play, pause, mix it and loop.
The Disney Mix Stick-High School Musical in Orange MP3 player also comes with a built in rechargeable battery that has an 8-hour playback life, ear buds and a lanyard with a safety release. Every time you plug in your Disney Mix Stick-High School Musical in Orange Mp3 player to transfer songs from your computer to the player you are also charging the rechargeable battery.
