EcoStore-EcoFriendly Products GIVEAWAY

Mommy Jenna | March 31st, 2009 - 2:23 pm

More and more, people are catching on to the need to find eco-friendly products. EcoStore makes that possible with their wide line of products for everyday cleaning as well as bath and body.

When we had the chance to try out EcoStore, it was definitely worth it. Knowing that these products are made from plant and mineral based ingredients, making them non-toxic, is also reassuring with small children in our household.


Kelsie loves bath time so of course the Baby Body Wash was perfect for us to try out. Kelsie’s father has ezcema so it is very easy for her skin to get dry very easily and she ends up with little bumps all over. Not fun when you are two and don’t understand. The Baby Body Wash from EcoStore was perfect for her sensitive skin as well as Aubrey’s. There was a very very light scent to the Body Wash but nothing over powering for little skin.

Another great product from EcoStore is the Baby Moisturiser. I loved how this mosituriser helps protect skin, and as EcoStore themselves put it, “Keep your angel’s skin as smooth and healthy as the day she was born.”

The product Mommy got to especially try was EcoStore’s All Natural Lemongrass bath & body soap bar. This lightly-scented bar is gentle enough for everyone in the family and leaves a soft lemon scent. Yum!

Right now, when you purchase EcoStore products from Meijer, you will receive $2.00 Off your next shopping visit!

Get Active with Yoplait Kids Giveaway

Mommy Jenna | March 26th, 2009 - 7:00 pm

If you have ever experienced a toddler’s eating habits, you understand how it can sometimes be a challenge to ensure they get the nutrients they need. One thing I don’t have to worry about though is pulling at Yoplaits Kids Yogurt and knowing Kelsie will HAPPILY have some!

Did you know research has shown that fewer than half of all kids ages two to 12 get the calcium they need each day? Calcium and Vitamin D are both essential nutrients for building strong bones. Though it can be challenging for growing kids to get Vitamin D, since it is found naturally in very few foods, Yoplait for Kids makes it a little easier to incorporate a delicious source of Vitamin D and Calcium in your child’s diet.

Kelsie’s absolute favorite Yoplaits would probably be Ro-Gurt Special Edition Shaggy’s Like Cool Punch and Rawberry. The Go-Gurts are perfect for when you are on the go or just a quick snack for little ones. The flavors All Yoplait Kids have to offer are sure to delight those little tastebuds.

With warm weather here, it’s time to get out and get active! How would you like to win a Yoplait Kids Get Active Prize Pack?
THREE For The Love of Baby Readers Will Win
*coupon for a free Yoplait Kids Yogurt Pack
*Insulated Travel Cooler
*Jump Rope
*Water Bottle
*an outdoor game set including a beach ball, paddle ball, and more!

ENTER TO WIN:
