Woobee All-Weather bib

Drool, drool, go away… don’t come back another day! I wish that worked. I’ve tried and it doesn’t. However, I got lucky and found a solution… a water-resistant bib from Woobee.

Madelyn is drooling like crazy these days and despite the fact that she wears a bib, even to bed, her clothes underneath always get soaked! I end up having to change her clothes a few times a day not because she is dirty, but just wet!

Enter the Woobee bib. The machine washable bib has a little pocket in the front made of the water-resistant material that covers the entire back. For older babies the pocket in the front is probably great for little food spills, but for Madelyn, it is GREAT for catching spit up.

The Woobee bib is available in 9 color and pattern combinations including a stylish leopard print pattern.

Bumpy Name – Labels for bottles, cups and snack holders

If your child is in day care or school,  you have twins, or if you just have other kids in your home, Bumpy Name labels are a great solution for that "who’s bottle is this" predicament.

BUMPY NAME labels:

  • are made from non-toxic material
  • are dishwasher safe
  • are personalized for your child(ren) in text or braile
  • fit bottles, sippys, sport bottles, snack holders, travel mugs and more.
  • are microwavable
  • provide a non-slip grip

I recieved a sample pack of BUMPY NAME labels and was impressed with how easily the labels slide on and off Madelyn’s bottles. I also learned that it is virtually impossible to break, tear or ruin a BUMPYNAME label. My 7 year old son tried to stretch it, rip it and even ran over it with his PlasmaCar and it is still in perfect condition… the BUMPY NAME label.. not the car!

I recommend BUMPY NAME labels to moms with children of all ages!

Plasmacar

Plasmacar
If you are looking for a "ride on" toy that doesn't have an age or weight limit, you've got to get  the PlasmaCar! The PlamsaCar is awesome for kids ages 3 and up.. to 220 pounds.
Sebastian's Grandpa (200 pounds) had a blast going through the obstacle course we set up in the garage.

The PlasmaCar is propelled by weight distribution. Simply by turning the steering wheel, the PlasmaCar moves. No peddling. No power needed. It's amazing! To make the PlasmaCar go, the child simply wiggles the steering wheel back and forth. The PlasmaCar easily reverses by turning the steering wheel 180 degrees. The seat and the foot rests are rubber so the rider doesn't slip.

Watch the PlasmaCar in action. Please don't focus on the fact that my 1 year old daughter is being chased by two plasmacars. She was really having fun but now that I look back at the video, one year later, it seems a little mean. The videos are a great representation of how easy to steer, smooth and fast the plasmacar is.


Here is what my seven year old says about the PlasmaCar:

  • It's easy to steer.
  • It's fun and fast!
  • It's light so I can carry it myself
  • It goes faster on a smooth surface like the garage floor or a basket ball court.
  • Sebastian suggests you have shoes on while riding the PlasmaCar.

I suggest that a child under 4 years old wear a helmet while riding the PlasmaCar. However, it is my observation that falling off the PlasmaCar should not cause injury as it is so close to the ground.

Price: You can buy just about any color Plasmacar on Amazon for around $60, down from about $80!

The PlasmaCar is available at Amazon.com.
