Family Fun In The Sun: Jollys Garden Clogs Review & Giveaway

July 14, 2011 by Stefani Tolson 62 Comments

This year I have been taking a stab at gardening. I normally buy those color spots each year and fill up my planter boxes with pretty flowers that just need to be watered. After seeing the prices of vegetables on the rise, I decided to try to grow my own vegetables. I went out and bought seeds, dirt and I now have vegetables growing which is so awesome.

While I am out in my garden in my back yard, I have been wearing my cute pink garden clogs from Jollys Garden Shoes and Clogs. I have always wanted my own pair of garden clogs and now I have a cute pink pair. I like that these shoes are lightweight, flexible and WATERPROOF. These are fun to wear around the house too! For me, I prefer the clog because it is an open-heel shoe. For those that prefer a closed-heel, you will want to take a peek at their garden shoes.

Jollys Garden Shoes and Clogs has an awesome variety of shoes that have been imported from Germany. These cute shoes have been the trendsetters among all-weather shoes for over 25 years! They have a variety of colors and prints to choose from. I had to go with the pink patterned print because pink happens to be one of my favorite colors.

For more information or to buy your own pair, please visit www.GardenClogs.com.

Barney: 1-2-3 Learn DVD Review and Giveaway

June 30, 2011 by Stefani Tolson

Does your child like Barney? My three year old son always is entertained by Barney when he watches one of his shows. Since I am a work at home mom, my son does watch TV sometimes while mommy is working. I always try to put on shows that are educational to help him get prepared for school.

There is a new Barney DVD coming out for those of you moms that have your children watching Barney too! Coming July 12, 2011 you will be able to purchase an all new adventure with Barney and his friends called “Barney: 1-2-3 Learn“. This new DVD is coming out just in time for the back to school season.

The all-new Barney DVD helps your little ones learn their numbers, shapes and letters. Since my son knows his older sisters go to school to learn, he is interested in these types of learning videos which is great in my opinion. It amazes me what he picks up and learns from shows that he watches.

About this new DVD:

Come along with Barney and his friends for a Tee-riffic adventure filled with shapes, numbers and letters! Join Baby Bop as she discovers that counting can lead to hidden treasures and that there’s a carnival of shapes and colors for all to enjoy. And BJ uses the alphabet to help Riff get ready for his music concert in the park. Barney can’t wait to show you that shapes, numbers and letters are the ticket to fun and friendship!

Country Crock & The Wounded Warrior Project + Giveaway

June 27, 2011 by Stefani Tolson

When it comes to butter, you are ALWAYS going to find a tub of Country Crock in my fridge. Yes, I know that some of you probably call this a spread or margarine, but at my house we call it butter. I have actually been using this product for years and have always been happy with it. Even when their are other similar products on sale, I will always grab a tub of Country Crock.

For those that are not familiar with Country Crock, here is the scoop:

Country Crock soft spreads, with 70% less saturated fat and 30% fewer calories than butter, provide country-fresh taste and a better nutrition choice for families. Every tub contains 0g Trans fat per serving and no partially hydrogenated oils, and Country Crock makes good habits more delicious when paired with vegetables. Country Crock® Original Spread contains 70 calories, 7g fat and 2g saturated fat per serving. Butter contains 100 calories and 11g total fat (7g saturated fat) per serving.

Here is some cool news! Country Crock has partnered with the Wounded Warrior Project™, an organization established to raise awareness and provide aid for injured service members. As part of the alliance, Country Crock has committed $100,000 to the non-profit organization. In addition, they have also created a specially marked tub of Country Crock that you will find on shelves through the end of August. I happen to have one of these NIFTY Country Crock Wounded Warrior Project tubs in my fridge too!

Timmy Time: Picture Day DVD Review and Giveaway

June 23, 2011 by Stefani Tolson

I have a 3 year old son that loves Timmy! When I opened the mail with the new Timmy Time movie to review, I had to close it back up and let him re-open it. You should have seen his eyes when he opened the envelope with the movie in it. Christopher’s eyes got real BIG, along with a big grin. He immediately went over to the DVD player and wanted to watch Timmy. How could I say no?

This is such a cute DVD and the characters are so adorable. In this DVD your child will get to watch 5 cute episodes. I love that these episodes are educational and something my boy really loves watching!

Come along for a picture perfect day of fun with your preschool pal Timmy! The Oscar®-winning creators of “Wallace and Gromit™” and “Shaun the Sheep™” will make you smile in these fun-loving adventures featuring Timmy and his nursery friends. From good, clean fun during school photo day to drumming up music lessons, these wonderful stories filled with surprises will have you laughing in a flash. So snap up these five adorable tales with a big focus on fun!

Snapshot Timmy – It’s time for the class photo, but Timmy just cannot keep himself clean – jumping into puddles, kicking muddy footballs and getting splattered by jam sandwiches!
Timmy Wants The Blues” – Timmy is having a blue day, collecting all the blue toys, blue cushions and blue paint. But when it comes to painting a picture, he quickly discovers he’s going to need more than just one color!
Timmy Wants The Drum” – During a music lesson, Timmy decides he wants to play the drum! But when it is given to Yabba, and a triangle to Timmy, he goes about trying to get the drum for himself…
Timmy’s Puppet” – On his way to preschool, Timmy’s homemade sock-puppet falls out of his backpack. Poor Timmy doesn’t realize until he arrives to see everyone playing with their own puppets! Crestfallen, he begins an unsuccessful search until Harriet offers to help him make a new one.
Timmy The Builder” – Following Otus’s example, the class begin building dens for themselves. Otus offers to help Timmy with his, but Timmy’s pride gets the better of him – he can do this on his own! However, the little lamb soon has to admit that two heads may be better than one…
