by 51 Comments
Zazoo Photo Clock Disclosure: Zazoo sent us a photo clock to review. All opinions are 100% my own. I have tried many sleep solutions for Emma and Ethan in the past.

Both Emma (age 6 1/2) and Ethan (age 5) are into reading (or trying to read) the clock and are fully aware of time. When Zazoo Kids offered to send us … [Read more...]

by 114 Comments
Twinkle Toes and S Lights Skechers Kids Shoes I have been in love with Skechers Kids shoes since my oldest (21) was little. They always held up to extreme abuse and looked nice while doing so. She always liked them because Skechers kept up with the fashion trends and they "looked cool". This year we were offered Skechers Kids shoes to review for Back to School. Well, I couldn’t resist. Emma loves everything that is shiny, glittery or glows. … [Read more...]
