Bath Luve Giveaway CLOSED

August 12, 2009
THIS CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED
One lucky reader will win a Bath Luve and a Bath Buddy!



I remember when my kids were babies and we'd give them a bath. I figure it's pretty customary to lay a washcloth over their torsos to keep them warm while bathing. Serves it's purpose I suppose though, as they grow, the washcloth doesn't really cover all the important parts. When I found the Bath Luve I truly wished my kids were still infants!

What an amazing invention! Leave it to a mom to invent something so perfect for bathtime! Owner and designer, Amy Seckinger, was inspired by her son to create something that would make bathtime less fussy. The Bath Luve is an adorable animal shaped terry cloth towels that you lay over the baby to cover from their shoulders to their privates.


All you do is submerge the Bath Luve and drape it over your child's torso. When I got one of these Luves to try out I immediately took it over to see my brand-new nephew! My sister-in-law had been dealing with a Mr. Fussy at bathtime so she was totally on board to try something new. As usual, he was fussy when taking off his clothes and laying down in the tub. Once she put the frog on him he stopped fussing! He loved it! He was calm and relaxed for the entire bath! How cute is he!?!

It wasn't until my sister-in-law gave him a bath the next day that we realized we'd used the Luve upside down! The cute little back feet go on the shoulders. Though, it worked just fine this way!

This is a wonderful product for any new mom. I know it would be a fantastic baby shower gift too!

Bath Luve offers three designs. Frog, Fish and Duck. Too cute! In addition, Bath Luve now offers the Bath Luve Buddy. This is a soft toy that coordinates with the Luve and can be used to continue to add water to the Bath Luve without having to remove it from the child. It can also be used to wash the baby and, as they get older, what a great bath toy!

Bath Luve has generously donated one Frog Bath Luve and Bath Buddy for one of my readers to win!

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

Me4Kidz MediBuddy Review and Giveaway CLOSED

August 9, 2009
THIS CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED
One lucky reader will win a MediBuddy of their choice from Me4Kidz!

My kids are very accident prone. Snappy constantly has scrapes on her knees and she reacts to mosquitos like I do: badly. We aren't always (or ever, it seems) at home when booboos happen. The MediBuddy from Me4Kidz is perfect for us!



Me4Kids stands for "medical emergencies for kids". It is a family owned an operated company that began after a bee sting to the oldest child of the owners. Me4Kidz creates "functional and modern first-aid kits that prompt and inspire parents and caregivers world-wide to be prepared when it comes to every day childhood injuries." All of their products are made in the USA and the containers are made from 100% recycled and lead free plastic. Those are really impressive and important qualities in the products I choose for my family.

Me4Kidz sent us the hot pink MediBuddy. I love how small and easy to stash in a bag that it is. My kids loved the crayon bandages that came in it. For some reason, TRex has always had a big aversion to bandaids. It doesn't matter that I buy the superhero ones or other cartoon characters. However, these crayon bandages must have some sort of magical kid appeal because he didn't hesitate to find an imaginary booboo to put one on! The MediBuddy comes in four cool colors and is filled with:
15) 3/4 “ X 3” Red, Blue & Yellow Crayon Bandages
(1) 3” Knee & Elbow Bandage
(1) Sting Relief Pad
(4) 2” X 2” Gauze Pads (2 Two Packs)
(3) 5” X 8” Antiseptic Wipes (sting free)
(1) Burn Relief Cream
(2) Antibiotic Ointments
(12) Kid Friendly Fun Stickers

In addition to the MediBuddy, Me4Kidz offers their original MediBag, the Diaper Buddy (filled with diaper bag essentials for babies) and the MediBag for Petz. I'm certainly going to be getting the pet bag for my in-laws who are dog breeders!


And, Me4Kidz would like to give one of my readers the chance to win their own MediBuddy!

Contest is open to US only and will end on August 13th.
