The whimsical Toof Puff™ pillow has a little pocket in front for a tooth and loot. Kids will also discover it’s a huggable pal to play with when the Tooth Fairy isn’t around. The 9″ square wool felt pillow is handmade with love in the USA.
This is an adorable alternative to the plastic bag my son used for one of his teeth that fell out most recently.
How much is it? $28

Kids play hard. There’s playing hard in the winter and there’s playing hard in the summer. It’s summer and this playing hard stinks! There are times when my 10 year old (sorry Seb!) walks in the door after playing outside and I tell him to go take a shower.. I can’t take it. The stink is a combination of perspiration and dirty clothes smell.
Until the folks at Junior Varsity Naturals emailed me about their natural deodorant, I didn’t consider that my 10 year old should start wearing deodorant any time soon. Well, according to an unbiased poll of over 500 parents, 28% of kids develop body odor between 10-11 years old. Yikes.. not my son, right?! I am so lucky that I was recently contacted by Junior Varsity Naturals to review their natural kids deodorant. What timing!
Junior Varsity Naturals brand deodorant is an all-natural product developed for active children of any age. This product is created with no harsh chemicals such as aluminum chlorhydrate (may be linked with Alzheimer’s Disease), Parabens (May be linked with breast cancer) and propylene glycol (Ingredient commonly used in manufacturing antifreeze). Instead Junior varsity Naturals produces a natural antibacterial deodorant complete with odor preventing botanicals, which are gentle and effective. This natural deodorant goes on clear and will not leave any white residue.
Junior Varsity Naturals brand deodorant is available specifically for boys and girls. The boy’s deodorant has a citrus fragrance (all natural) while the girls is cherry. My 3 year old daughter carries her Junior Varsity Naturals deodorant in her little bag she takes everywhere! She calls it her “dodedant”.
How much? A well worth it $6.99

How cute are these shoes?
My kids have been wearing Vincent shoes for almost 3 years.. not the same ones. I am always amazed at how freakin’ cute they are and how well they hold up. Sebastian wore his OSKAR‘s forever.
Vincent Shoes:
Madelyn is wearing the Susan style in the photograph above. The Susan is a low cut boot with soft inner padding that protects her little feet and will surely keep them warm on cold days. She LOVES them and wore them for hours the first day she had them despite having no where to go to show them off.

KidZui is an Internet browser for kids that I recently installed on my laptop and my son’s laptop. He totally LOVES KidZui. He has access to his favorite games and virtual worlds like Club Penguin and is introduced to safe online games and educational websites that he might not have otherwise learned about and can even interact SAFELY with other KidZui members. No matter where a user is in KidZui, he/she can get back to the KidZui home screen, and lists of games, virtual worlds, educational sites, and more. In other words, navigating KidZui is simple.
Great for kids ages 3-12, KidZui users (even non-members) can create their own Zui choosing a hairstyle, clothes, and even the shape of his eyes. All of the options can make for a very interesting Zui!
KidZui is a stand alone Internet browser meaning that you do not have to have IE or Firefox open to access KidZui.
