Due to personal reasons and a growing photography business, Lolidots is not longer blogging, running giveaways or doing product reviews. There are tons of other great giveaway blogs out there though! Thanks to my fans for 2 years of awesome support and a lot of fun!


You can find my photography and photography blog (that I try hard to keep up with) at brosgrafix.com and facebook.com/brosgrafix

Hilary Tees Review and Giveaway CLOSED

August 21, 2009
THIS CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED

One reader will win their choice of tshirt from Hilary!

I really think that tshirts are something you can never have too many of. This totally applies to my kids too! When I saw the tees from Hilary on Etsy I fell in love. All of the shirts are made from original artwork. Each design is unique and absolutely adorable. We were sent the Dragon Out of the Box tee for TRex and Snappy got the Thinking Bunny tee.

 

You'll find much more than tshirts at Hilary's! I love this Owl Tote...


This pillow made from soft tshirts just looks so comfy. And so cute!


The artwork seen on all the shirts, totes and pillows also comes in prints! Perfect for any child's room!


The tshirts from Hilary are really well made. I've gotten shirts for the kids before that were painted and screen printed that cracked after one washing. These are still just as wonderful as the day we got them. And, trust me, with the whirling messes that my kids are, these shirts get washed a lot! I love that Hilary has started carrying these same cute tees in adult sizes! I've gotta get me one!

And, Hilary is pleased to offer one of my readers the chance to get any tee they'd like! There are so many to choose from. The winner will have a big decision to make!

Contest is open Worldwide and will end on August 28th.

Green Toys Review and Giveaway CLOSED

August 19, 2009
THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED

One reader will win their choice of summer toy from Green Toys!


Green toys is a company that obviously cares about kids. Why? Not only do they make amazing toys with a classic feel and look that kids enjoy. Their toys are all made
from recycled plastic and other environmentally friendly materials. All of the toys from Green Toys are made from recycled milk jugs! On top of that, all of the creating is done right here in the USA. By staying local and using recycled materials, Green Toys is helping to reduce the use fossil fuels and do their part to create a better tomorrow for our children while creating a more fun today!


TRex has recently become very aware of recycling and other environmentally friendly practices. When I showed him the Indoor Gardening Kit from Green Toys he was really excited. When we talked about the company and how they make their toys he was beside himself! Both kids (and dad!) had a great time with the kit. I think it's really fun to do something like this with your kids. What an opportunity to talk about our earth and environment while having fun!
 
 

And, now that TRex knows what is done with the milk jugs we use he is even more adamant about recycling. Because, you know...we gotta have more toys!

Green Toys has a nice collection of toys to choose from. I'd love to have all of the kitchen playsets for Snappy!


And, how cute are these trucks?


Green Toys is not only nice to the environment. They are nice to blog readers too! One of you will win your choice of an EcoSaucer, Jump Rope or Sand Play Set! As if getting the kids playing outside wasn't enough! Now you can feel good about the toys they are playing with!!
  

Contest is open to US only and will end on August 24th.

Schatzi Wear Review and Giveaway CLOSED

August 17, 2009

THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED

One reader will win a tshirt from Schatzi Wear!


Schatzi
is German for "small treasure". That's what the shirts from Schatzi Wear are! These "small treasures" are hip and stylish shirts that you can be proud to own. The mom-owned, Canadian based company donates to the SOS Children's Villages Canada for every tshirt they sell. The shirts are also shipped in eco-friendly packaging and the 2010 Spring line uses bamboo and organic cotton. On top of all that, they are ultra hip tees!


Schatzi sent me the Bengal Tiger tee for TRex. He loves this shirt! The tiger print on the front is very cool and he loves when I read him the tiger facts that are printed on the back of the shirt. I love how super soft the fabric is and, of course, it's tagless which makes for even more comfort while wearing it. Isn't TRex super cool?!


Schatzi has really cute tees for boys, girls and babies. I love the "Me and The Boys" rock and roll tee.


And I really want the "Uber Chic" tee for Snappy!


There are so many cute shirts to choose from. Any kid would look adorable in the "Peace and Thank You" tee!


Schatzi is going to give one of my readers a free tee in your choice of size!

Contest is open WORLDWIDE and will end August 24th.

Snikiddy Snacks Giveaway CLOSED

August 12, 2009
THIS CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED
One lucky reader will win a gift pack from Snikiddy Snacks!



"Slow down!!" is what I have to say when the kiddos are eating Snikiddy Snacks! They may eat them way too fast but, I feel no guilt for letting them eat those snacks!

Snikiddy Snacks are all natural, preservative free, gluten free, with no trans fat and no hydrogenated oils.These snacks are so great that they've been featured on Rachel Ray as the "Snack of the Day"!!


They are really yummy! I've tried all of their flavors. My favorite is the Pizza! Snappy and TRex like the Grilled Cheese and hubby loves the Nacho!


We also tried the Chocolate Chocolate Bites. I'm generally not a fan of "healthy" cookies. These are super scrumptious! They are just the right amount of sweet and perfect little bite sized. My kids adore them! And, when they ask for cookies, I don't mind offering them these.


Snikiddy Snacks are available at Toys R Us and Baby R Us stores, Central Market, Whole Foods and plenty of other great stores. You can also purchase them straight from the Snikiddy website!

And, you can win some right here! Snikiddy Snacks is giving one of my readers a gift pack filled with:
1 Grilled Cheese Sharing Pack
1 Nacho Sharing Pack
1 Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Sharing Pack
1 Chocolate Chip Bite Snack Pack



Contest is open to US only and will end Monday August 17th.
