Bal Yoga for Kids Giveaway!

My daughter really loves trying new things, so when we got the Bal Yoga for Kids book, DVD and CD, I barely had it unwrapped and she was racing to try it out. Since that day, it has become a ritual. Created by Glenda Kacev and Sylvia Roth, this program teaches even the youngest child the fun and relaxation of yoga. Each move is based on a letter of the alphabet which makes it more fun (and a great learning tool). ; A for Airplane Pose, B for Boat Pose, etc. Children learn the poses for Namaste, Om Shanti and even a lovely Pranayama song. Kids love the accopanying DVD with young children doing the poses with them. Children learn balance, coordination, body awareness, strength, flexibility, listening skills, and using their imagination.
My daughter is a big fan of the songs that partner each pose.
She is getting quite adept at her poses and she is definitely more relaxed after our little sessions. Here she is doing Wheel Pose. We love the CD for when we travel and she has memorized the poses.

Bal is Hindi for Child, which is exactly who we had in mind when we put together this program. It all started with a Preschool yoga class, where parents approached us to see how they could continue their children’s growth at home.
After a two year journey we are proud to present the Bal Yoga for Kids book, music and video series. In this program, we have combined traditional yoga poses, familiar childhood melodies and whimsical illustrations to familiarize children with the alphabet while strengthening their bodies and minds.
Our experience as Early Childhood Educators and years of practicing yoga combine to create a positive energy which we hope to nurture in young children through this program.

Want to win this fantastic Bal Yoga for Kidswith CD & DVD? Here's How:

SeaSnax Giveaway!

My biggest issue with eating happens at night. I mindlessly cram things into my mouth and then feel guilty the next morning. I try to set a good example with what I eat and drink, so my daughter can develop healthy habits. I love a good crunch and good flavor. Enter SeaSnax. These delicious seaweed snacks come in many flavors and are simply delicious!

SeaSnax is a nutrient-packed roasted seaweed snack which is vegan, gluten free and Non-GMO Project verified. It is made using 100% olive oil and just a pinch of sea salt. This vegetable of the sea is all natural with no artificial colors, flavors or preservatives.

SeaSnax are made from nori and porphyra (red algae, which have many nutrients.

seaweed draws an extraordinary wealth of micronutrients from the sea, including iodine, calcium, sodium, magnesium, potassium, iron, zinc, copper, and selenium. (In fact, seaweed has a large proportion of iodine compared to dietary minimum requirements. While actual amounts per product vary, the average sheet of nori is estimated to provide 70% of the recommended daily intake of iodine.) Red algae also contains vitamin A, vitamin C and vitamin B12.seaweed lipids also have a higher proportion of essential fatty acids (EFAs) than land plants. Red algae have a high EPA content, a substance mostly found in animals, especially fish. While the amount of EPA and DHA in a sheet of nori varies with the level of nutrients in the ocean while the algae grows, one sheet of nori contains about 0.5 grams of Omega-3 fatty acids.(from http://whole9life.com/2011/07/steal-this-snack-seasnax-strangely-addictive/)

Best part of all, kids love SeaSnax! Over a recent school vacation, I was fighting my nephews and daughter (I lost) to leave my SeaSnax alone. One nephew would not believe it when I told him it was seaweed. Nighttime snacking is actually beneficial to me now that I have these tasty delights at my disposal.

Want to win you own SeaSnax? I thought so! SeaSnax is offering on lucky Product Mommy winner a choice of either a Grab-and-Go 12/pk in your flavor choice, or a 4 pack of the full-sized sheets.

Here's How:

This toy provides hours of fun for my little one. She uses the pieces for all of her different toys. We even brought this on a recent overnight trip. I love that it is made of wood, and she loves how many uses there are for each piece. The possibilities are endless.

A Toy Garden Stockmar Giveaway!

One of my favorite sites to shop on is A Toy Garden. The products are all so diverse yet with the same theme of simple, creative play. I did my first review of A Toy Garden when I began this blog.
In the winter there is nothing we love more than creating in our home. When the weather keeps us in, we still have fun. The Multicolored Beeswax Candle Making Kit is a great way to keep little hands busy while creating beautiful candles for home and hearth. I adore the scent of beeswax, and these candles are easy for little hands to make. My daughter was very into the fact that she could do this all on her own (I helped cut the wick). She was so into the beeswax, that I also pulled out the Stockmar Modelling Beeswax. It is easy to warm in hands and very pliable. It never dries out! The smell is so comforting and it is very therapeutic to play with. My daughter and I discussed Fall and what it means. To her, Fall means apples. She decided to make her own little wax apple with tiny green leaf. She then used more green to make an owl.
Want to win your own Stockmar Modelling Beeswax 12 piece set? Here's How:

Glass Dharma Giveaway!

Whether your child is a smoothie drinking kind of kid, or a "juice only please" little sprite, you probably have used a straw at some point. Unless you are in the know, that straw was probably plastic. Which I cannot understand, because if you read this blog, I have told you how much I love Glass Dharma straws. (just kidding, I am perfectly willing to tell you again).

The Glass Dharma line was created by glassblower David Leonhardt in response to the wide misuse of plastics. Glass straws do not leach toxins into your drinks. Each use of a glass straw, means one less plastic one sitting in a landfill-so think of how many plastic straws you are not using by using the glass straws for the rest of your life. They are made from borosilicate tubing which is the strongest glass commercially available. They are dishwasher and microwave safe and can be using in cold or hot drinks. They are handmade in the United States. Each type of straw comes in different sizes from sipper, to one that can be used to drink bubble tea. You can get a simple straight straw, one with glass dots to stop it from rolling, and one with a bend. And they come with a lifetime warranty against breakage! They will replace your broken straw for free! You probably will not have to worry about that since the straws are so strong. If they can make it in my home with my child, they can make it anywhere. I love the hemp straw sleeves (to take your straw with you of course) and the cleaning brushes make them even easier to clean.

The most nutrient rich (lumpy) smoothies and even bubble tea can be sipped through these luxurious straws. I always get a kick of whipping my Glass Dharma straw out when we are out on the town. I always get questions about it, and I always smile and fill the asker in on how wonderful and eco-friendly these babies are. They are a permanent fixture in our home.

I know you are practically begging to get some Glass Dharma straws huh?! Well here's how you can win a $25 Glass Dharma Gift Certificate:

Giveaway Rules:
This contest is only open to US readers. You must be a Product Mommy follower. All entries must be received by 11:59pm on October 21, 2011. Please include your email address in each entry.

Klean Kanteen Giveaway!

For our family, using stainless steel bottles are just a way of life. I cringe when I see people still drinking from disposable plastic bottles. Such a waste and so bad for the environment! My favorite stainless steel bottles are all from Klean Kanteen. I have written about them before, and am so glad to be working with Klean Kanteen again. Klean Kanteen created the first food-grade stainless steel bottle on the market. Klean Kanteen® are made from high quality, 18/8, food-grade stainless steel, a metal with no harmful toxins. They are super durable and easy to clean (dishwasher safe). They use food-grade stainless steel that doesn't need to be lined with plastic or baked-on epoxy like aluminum bottles, so you'll never have to check to make sure the inside of your Klean Kanteen® is still safe and intact. No linings means no flavor retains in the bottle, so you water never tastes like the juice that might have been in it the day before.

The Klean Kanteen insulated bottles are something I tell everyone about. It keeps contents hot or cold for up to 6 hours, and iced drinks stay cold for more than 24 hours. These are no lofty claims. I left my bottle in the car overnight with water an ice inside. I got into the car the next morning and my daughter was asking (whining) for a cold drink. I handed it back and it was not only cold, it still had the ice cubes from the night before! And now the insulated bottles come in colors! My daughter uses the 16 oz. coral-colored one. She is happy she now has a Klean Kanteen like mommy. She is super-picky that her drinks should be cold and not merely cool (heavens forbid), and her Klean Kanteen insulated is heaven-sent for us. The cap is leakproof when you use theStainless Loop Cap and if we are hanging out at home wet switch to the Café Cap and convert it to a mug with a quick twist. Fabulous!

Want to win your own 16 oz. Klean Kanteen insulated in the Deep Purple color? Here's how:

Hello, Dolly! (Corolle Doll Giveaway!)

Every little girl and boy has had that favorite item, whether a blanket or doll. We have lots of cloth dolls for my daughter, and she has a great time playing mommy, but she wanted something different. When a cousin recently had a baby, my daughter was after me for a "real baby doll". I finally figured out that that meant a vinyl baby doll. My baby doll was named Zachary, and he was a Corolle baby doll. I knew my daughter would be thrilled with a Corolle doll because they are so real-looking, and because they really are heirloom quality (I also adore the delicious vanilla scent). Corolle dolls come in all shapes and sizes, as they have for over 30 years. Corolle dolls are made for children to bond with.

Our first Corolle doll was the Bebe Do. This adorable soft-bodied baby doll comes complete with its own feeding bottle and soft bunny. It also comes with a book that teaches little girls how to take care of their dolls like a "real mommy". She measures 14 inches, so she is a good size. Her soft body makes her so cuddly, and she is really the perfect size for little girls and their first larger baby doll. Bebe Do has logged a lot of time in my daughter's carriage and cradle.

For "little mamas" that want an even more realistic "baby", the Corolle Bebe Amour is perfect! Bebe Amour is the size of a real 3-month old baby. She has a soft body and sleeping eyes. You can actually use your child's onesies (or even a younger siblings clothing) to dress this doll. It is amazing how real she does feel.

I love that Corolle fosters a child's creativity by giving them these objects of love. Children learn to bond, care for a childhood friend, and make memories to last a lifetime. I love watching my daughter respond to her doll's imagined "needs". Bebe Amour and Bebe Do run the gamut from tired, to hungry to playing. No batteries, no flashing lights, just childhood fun!

Want to get a Bebe Amour for your little one? Here's how:

Cream Perfume Company Giveaway!

I am not into heavy scents, especially in the summer. However, I like to smell nice (who doesn't?). When I found the Cream Perfume Company, I knew it would be a match made in deliciously scented heaven. The Cream Perfume Company works with renowned perfumers and local artisans in Grasse, France to create:

premium nature identical oil blends, ECOCERT certified organic essentials, absolutes and pure plant and fruit extracts. Our perfumes are all phthalate free and contain no sulfates, petro-chemicals, synthetic dyes, triclosan, GMO, PPG, MEA, DEA, TEA or formaldehyde donors. Our products are cruelty free.

Additionally, our body lotions are vegan, wheat and gluten free, contain no glycol, parabens, sulfates, phthalates or silicones.

The products come in eco-friendly (and travel friendly) containers. The wood they use is recycled, and sturdy enough to cart around with you all day. We tried the Apricot Cream Perfume and the Mango Cream Perfume. The Apricot is a blend of black currant, apricot, green notes, lilly of the valley and raspberry with jasmine, sandalwood and musk. It is my favorite summer scent. The Mango is mango and cassis balanced with jasmin and candy sugar accord with sandalwood, musk and vanilla. The Mango is romantic and warm on me (a nice dinner out fragrance). We also got to try the Mandarin Body Lotion which really moisturizes and has a delicious woody orange scent.

The Cream Perfume Company is pocket-book and environmentally friendly. And best of all...you get to smell amazing! Want to win one product of your choice from The Cream Perfume Company? Here's how:

KinderGlo Giveaway!

I think it is a built-in thing with children to have certain fears. Darkness seems to be a big one. When my daughter started sleeping in her own room, she was very adamant that a light be left on at night. The large overheard light in her room, was a bit much, even dimmed. I was looking for a night light that would help her feel comfortable. KingerGlo is a series of adorable LED night lights that bathe the room in soft light. They are non-toxic durable little characters for your children to keep right in bed with them (or carry on trips to the bathroom). The charger powers the night lights for 8-10 hours, and you can choose color settings and put it on a 30 minute timer or leave it on all night. We got the Quarter Moon and we love it! My daughter feels safe and she is really into the different colors she can choose (each night she chooses a different color she wants her moon to be). If you want to receive $5 off of any of the night lights on the KingerGlo website, use code: ZX0I4GG3XN13. Want to win one for your tiny tot? Here's how:

Green To Grow Giveaway!

Naturally, Green to Grow was started when a man became a father. Michael Ritterbrown, the President of Green to Grow had a child and realized he wanted to protect his child from the harsh chemicals in bottles and other baby gear. Green to Grow began by making a line of bisphenol A-free plastic baby bottles and now Green to Grow makes everything from bottles to cups and clothing for children. We are out of the bottle stage in our home, but after reading such wonderful things about this brand, I was super excited to try some of the new products they have launched.

The new Eco-system Sippy Trainer Cup is a great way to transition from bottles to a sippy cup. It is adorably decorate with a cheery seahorse. It is:

Independently tested for quality and safety

Made from recyclable polypropylene plastic (#5)

Free of BPA, phthalates, PVC, and lead

Sold as a single unit with seahorse design

Compatible with sippy spout and sippy handle

Soft spout eases transition from baby bottle to sippy

Complies with EN 14350 and CPSIA

We let our little nephew give it a go, and no only did he not spill, but we loved the cover to keep it safe from germs during our outings. This was a definite winner.

The Ecosystem Formula Stacker is great way to travel with either formula or snacks for your kids. It comes with two 4 oz containers, a pouring spout for powdered formula or snacks, and a lid. Ideal for toting and storing formula and snacks vertically. Purchase a pair of Seashell Lids and convert your formula stacker to two individual 4 oz snack containers!

Independently tested for quality and safety

Made from recyclable polypropylene plastic (#5)

Free of BPA, phthalates, PVC, and lead

Compatible with seashell lids

Sold as single unit with blue whale design

Complies with EN 14350 and CPSIA

We never used formula, but these were perfect for traveling with snacks. The seashell lids are perfect for summer! I love that they were able to separate into two separate snack containers which made traveling with dried strawberries much easier. My daughter is a big fan of the ocean-themed design.

ConservingNow Envirosax Giveaway!

Ever start using a product and think to yourself "How did I ever live without this?". That was a moment I recently had when I was using my Envirosax from ConservingNow. ConservingNow is dedicated to teaching our children about conserving the earth by taking small steps. They hope that in 10 years from now, plastic bags will be obsolete, and everyone will be using reusable bags. Their website is full of ways parents, teachers and the community can help children achieve this goal and the goal of making our earth a safe, healthy place to be.

You may be using reusable bags, or like me, forgetting them in your car and cursing in the shop. ConservingNow has helpful car window static clinks that all of you readers can get for free! by clicking on the ConvservingNow link on the right side bar of this blog, or by going here. We have ours on our car, and it is a huge reminder as I unbuckle my child to get her out of the car for errands to bring my reusable bag(s) with me. ConservingNow has tons of options for reusable bags, from their cotton canvas totes to Envirosax.

We got the Envirosax from ConservingNow, and I cannot live without them. We got the 5-in-1 pouch which has five bags in a small pouch you can easily carry with you everywhere. I used all five bags in a "day of the life of Product Mommy." We began at Whole foods, which filled two bags in a snap. I used another bag for our huge haul of library books. The fourth bag was filled with clothing a cousin gave me for my daughter. The fifth bag was perfect for hauling leftovers from a fabulous dinner. I made sure to unpack them when I got home and put them all into my handbag for use the next day. I find myself reaching for an Envirosax every single day. They are so roomy and go easily over my shoulder, so I can get my toddler and my items into the house with ease. We even use an Envirosax to carry all the loot from and Easter Egg hunt. I am never without them, so when I think "shoot, I forgot my resuable bags," wherever I am, I reach into my handbag and they are there!

Ani Phyo Raw Food Essentials Recipe Book Giveaway!

Ani Phyo's newest recipe book Ani's Raw Food Essentials is dedicated to children. Her raw food diet has changed her life and left her feeling healthier and more energetic, something we all want for ourselves and our children. Ani Phyo is the queen of raw or "living food". She has proven that you can get the nutrition and taste you want out of food that is made from uncooked ingredients. Skeptical? Don't be. I began skeptical, thinking I would never get my family to eat raw. I received Ani's Raw Food Essentials, and set out on a mission to prove that food was not only delicious, but something even the pickiest little ones would eat. It was not only fun to make these delicious recipes, my daughter loved them!!!! I decided to give you all a sneak peak at just some of the many recipes we have tried and loved. The recipes are super easy to follow.

We started with a Basic Green Smoothie. It was filled with fruit, water and...kale. Of course you could use whatever greens you wanted, but I decided go big, or go home. My daughter drank two full cups of it. She also told me it was the best thing she ever had. I was shocked, but encouraged. My mission was working.

We made Almond Mylk and used it on our cereals, and even to drink by itself. It was yummy and great for someone like me, who really dislikes regular milk. It was the perfect add-in for smoothies too.

The Apple-Nut Porridge was a huge hit! Both my daughter and I are not huge fans of regular oatmeal. It always seems to make me feel tired and overly full. This fruit based porridge was so good, I would eat it for desert! The flax was a great source of fiber and omega's. We all fought over the last helping.

The Avocado-Pistachio Pesto is like heaven. It is so creamy and delicious. My meat-eating husband gobbled it down. We used it on kelp noodles and it was the perfect decadent meal. I not a fan of regular pesto (too oily for me), but this was just divine.

My daughter fell in love with the Chickenless Burger. It is dehydrated at 104 degrees and looks just like a real burger. The coconut adds some texture. She had eaten one the night before, and as I packed a picnic the next morning she specifically requested "the delicious burger from last night" (thank goodness, I had saved one). It was not only healthy, but super tasty. I am looking forward to our garden this summer so I can experiment with tomato toppings.

We finished off our day with some delicious Cookies made with Almond meal, Agave Syrup, Goji Berries, Chocolate chips and pumpkin seeds. Because it was a hot day, I also whipped up some Basic Banana Ice Kream.

There has yet to be a recipe in this book I do not like. If the pics of the food look good, imagine how it tasted?! So I bet you are drooling and wishing you had Ani's Raw Food Essentials. Well the publisher, Da Capo is offering a very lucky Product Mommy reader a chance to win a copy!

EO Coconut & Vanilla Product Giveaway!

I can feel the spring and summer coming. I love the scents and feel of warm weather. That also means getting my skin into condition to actually be showing. I know I say it over and over, but I am strongly influenced by scent. If something does not smell good, I have trouble wanting to use it. I also like my body care to be "clean" meaning no sulfates, parabens etc.
EO is a company that makes products that fit my picky requirements. EO® is family owned and operated. EO makes Certified Organic personal care products using the highest grade natural and certified organic ingredients. There are no synthetic colors, fragrances or harsh chemicals in their products. They use environmentally friendly packaging to ship their products. EO uses the most amazing essential oils and synergistic herbs. I have used many of their products over the years. My new favorites are the Coconut & Vanilla with Tangerine line.

The EO® Coconut & Vanilla with Tangerine Shower Gel contains papaya Enzymes, Mango Enzymes and Antioxidants with Jojoba to promote skin balance and softness. The Coconut Oil Cleansing Complex gently cleanses without drying. Glycerin, Allantoin, and Panthenol, natural humectants and moisturizers, hydrate and nurture skin. It smells AMAZING! and works so well. It leaves a nice clean scent that is so natural. I have actually been using it to get my mind in a "summer" frame of mind. I forgot to lotion one day, and my skin was still super-soft.

The Coconut & Vanilla with Tangerine Body Lotion contains calendula, white tea and white tea with mango seed butter, jojoba oil and vitamin E. It is a trip to an Island in the bottle. It pairs well with the shower gel. I am prone to dry skin patches and this really did the trick.

The Coconut & Vanilla with Tangerine Bubble Bath is the perfect way to relax at the end of the day. It has a natural coconut cleanser which allows it to bubble and foam without stripping your skin of vital moisture. A little goes a long way to helping me relax.

SmartKnit Kids Giveaway

Every morning in my house as we all get dressed to face the day, my daughter ends up shouting from her room. Her daily refrain is "Mama, come fix my socks." Turns out I am not the only mother who goes through this. Those little seams on socks are frustrating for little ones. Whether they are just learning to dress themselves, and are not getting the seam on the toe exactly right, or they have sensitivities, socks can be the cause of distress. Well, stress no more. SmartKnit Kids seamless socks to the rescue.

The SmartKnit Kids seamless socks really have no seams. They are knit "like a cocoon" so there are no areas to cause discomfort. Because they have no heel, children can put their own socks on and they last longer, because the no-heel design means children do not grow out of them as fast. They are made from Corespun and Lycra yarn and are form-fitting so they will not get wrinkly and bunch like traditional socks. The SmartKnit Seamless socks are also non-binding. They have a Halo Top™ that keeps the socks up, but does not have those elastic bands on top like conventional socks (you know the bands that leave markings on your child's legs and ankles), so they eliminate that irritation. The fibers wick away moisture to prevent smelly feet.

I put the SmartKnit Seamless socks to the ultimate test. I made my daughter put them on herself. She argued, wary of socks in general. I prodded and she put them on with ease. Better yet, she did not complain and ask me to fix them. We went to the playground and spent the whole day with no bunching, no fixing, and no whining. At night, her feet were nice and dry and no elastic marks. They really worked!

If you go through the sock madness, you have to try these. SmartKnit Kids is going to send a lucky Product Mommy reader a pair of SmartKnit Kids Seamless socks in your choice of color and size.

Here is how you enter:
