Patch Products Toy Review, Let's Play! Pop! Pop! Piano, and Clifford Pair Up Card Game. Put the electronics down, and PLAY!


Sy is in love with his Path Products Pop! Pop! Piano.  From the time I received it to do a review for, he was infatuated with it.

Each key makes a different sound when played.  It also pops up a colored jack that matches each key.  Of course you can shake the piano and have it mix up the colors, and try to match them back where they belong by playing it.  He figured out how to flip the switch to have it play piano sound or fun sounds himself.


I know when he really likes a toy, it gets carried around, and set up like inventory with his other favorite toys. He took the plastic case off the Pop! Pop! Piano and we used it to show him different colors, and where they go.  There is really so many different ways to use the Pop! Pop! Piano.  You can even push the keys to have the kids run after the pieces when the plastic is off.  


We just started to use matching flash cards.  Sy is 3, and still doesn't talk.  But he DOES know how to match things up, and things that sounds like each other.  He will also go get his toy, that matches the card too.


The Clifford Pair Up Card game has cute Dogs, Frogs, Squirrels, Girls, Clifford Characters to pair up. Sy's favorite thing to do is pair the Dog, and the Frog together.  The plastic Clifford Dog house storage case is a nice touch to pack the cards back up when we are done playing with them.  The other flash cards he has just come in little cardboard boxes, so this one is definitely great for storage, and wear.

You can find these products, and much more for children of all ages at Patch Products.

Pompeain 100% Grapeseed Oil All-Natural Cooking Spray #Review, and #Coupons

Smiley360 sent me Pompeain Spray to review.  What makes this spray in my opinion better than the others, is the fact it is 100% Grapeseed Oil.  The spray nozzle on the bottle itself makes the spray coat more surface area than other sprays.

I used mine to coat a pan for Sweet Potato Casserole,

3 cups mashed sweet potatoes
1 cup brown sugar
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup melted butter


Top With,
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup flour
1/3 cup melted butter


Preparation:

Combine the mixed mashed sweet potatoes, brown sugar, eggs, vanilla, milk, and melted butter into the casserole dish. Once that is ready, you then mix the Brown Sugar, flour, and melted butter in a different bowl and pour that as the topping of your casserole dish.

Bake on 350 for 30mins, or until you think its Brown enough.

Ozeri Frother #Review, Great for Coffee, Teas, and Mixing things! #HolidayGiftGuide Worthy.

You know when you are using a product that makes what you already enjoy, ten times better.. you stop to think, Why wasn't I using this product all along, it makes my life so much better moment?

When it comes to a product you may never have purchased for yourself.


Recently I received Ozeri's Frother. The Frothers handle fits perfectly into the palm of my hand as if it was made just for me. Every day I have tea, sometimes coffee, and a latte. I own a coffee machine that grinds, and brews fresh coffee beans all in one. I never thought hey! I need a frother. But when given the opportunity to review one, I figured why not. Let me just start off saying, this is more than just a Frother. It comes with 4 attachments. 2 are Frothers, 1 a drink mixer, and the other an egg beater. I honestly use the frother attachment the most. I love it to froth milk, for my coffees, and even my teas. It's my teas that I use it more often for, almost 4x a day. I have an electric kettle, that I use to make different types of tea depending on my mood. Sometimes Green, sometimes Chai, then at night I do Night time Tea with Chamomile, and peppermint.  I add honey to the hot water after the tea has steeped, and then add stevia powder sugar too. I use the frother to mix the honey, sugar, and milk with the tea.

The Ozeri Frother blends the tea perfectly together, no spoon can do what this does in just seconds.

Where has it been all my life? Why did I not own one before. The tea just tastes better!! Everything is just perfectly blended together. The best part.. I didn't have to do anything really, just hold the frother up right, and let it mix. When I hold it exactly in the middle of the cup, it makes it's own whirlpool in the center.

I truly believe this is one of the perfect gifts to give someone that likes tea, lattes, and mixed drinks.  You can find my review for the Ozeri Frother on Amazon.

Ozeri CardioTech Pro Series Digital Blood Pressure Monitor #Review.


The Ozeri Pro Series Digital Blood Pressure Monitor was extremely easy to set up, and use.  The price is also reasonable.  If you know some one that should be monitoring their heart rate, and blood pressure this is the Gift that has purpose, to monitor health.



It comes with a hard plastic case for storage.


The monitor itself is voice guided,  it tells you how high to hold your arm.  It has to be aligned with your heart. If you are off, it tells you to move your arm.  It will not read unless it is where it has to be for a proper reading.  Which makes it more accurate.


My husbands reading was 131/77,



Mine was 129/57.

Check out Ozeri CardioTech Pro Series Digital Blood Pressure Monitor on Amazon.  There are always great deals for Ozeri products on Amazon.

Plan Toys Wooden Toys #Review. #HolidayGiftGuide


PlanToys has some of the cutest, educational, recycled wood from expired rubber wood tree toys we have had the honor of reviewing.  Not only are the Wooden Toys, fun, but they are also educational along with playful colors, and activities.


The first Educational Wooden Toy my little one wanted to play with (Yes he saw the boxes, and immediately wanted to play with them.) was the Stacking Wooden Bear.  What I found unique about this toy was that each stacking circle piece, had a different shape wooden piece inside too.  It's like a puzzle instead of a puzzle.  


Once put together, the Stacking Bear Wooden Toy looks like this.  


Then we played with the My Mood Memo.  What is different about this wooden toy is the vast face/emotion shapes that come with it.  Also an Emotion Color wheel.  It is helping a lot to show my Sy his different emotions, and expressions.  


Like this one,  He was upset that I would not let him climb the TV, so I showed him what the angry one expressed.  He is learning, which makes me happy.  He has sensory problems, and toys like these mean a lot to us.  He is great at figuring things out in front of him.

More info about PlanToys! Kids can’t help love these classic wood pieces and PlanToys’ super green design is something we can get excited about as parents.

For over 30 years, PlanToys® has been recycling the wood from expired rubber wood trees to create beautiful wooden toys that inspire children’s imaginations and promote a commitment to sustainable play for generations to come.

From War To Peace Jewelry #Review. #HolidayGiftGuide


I came across From War To Peace jewelry and instantly fell for The Tree Of Life. Not only is this piece beautiful, but the birth of this piece has a different story. From War To Peace is made from Copper cabling that was once buried uunderground across the Midwest. These cables alloy has been recycled into what is now known as Peace Bronze.




I am wearing the Tree Of Life adjustable corded bracelet.The moment the package was in my hands I ripped it open, saw the the piece and immediately put it on. From War To Peace has more than just bracelets, there are earrings, necklaces, belt buckles, Bottle Openers, Wine Stoppers, and other items. Some of the jewelry are available in silver dipped, or gold dipped versions.

The adjustable cord is nicely made, even the clasps match the piece itself, along with the Peace Bronze chain links.

If you are looking for a piece of jewelry that not only has meaning, but is also well made, and unique From War To Peace is for you.
