If wrinkles and lines are a concern to you, this skin care kit might be what you need to stop the aging process before it fully starts.
It was our pleasure to try the sample, travel size kit available from The Diaper Lady. This kit is part of her Paraben-Free Product line. The package was shipped first class, and arrived safe and sound. Business cards were included, and the samples were in their own cute case with instructions. Catalog was also included for purchasing additional, full size items.
This item was reviewed by my mother, who noted how well the products do work. She was most impressed by the natural ingredients, in addition to the great smell. The items included have made a difference in the softness of her skin, and has reduced lines around her eyes.
Included in the travel kit were the following items:
Gentle Daily Clenser
Hydrating Toner
Rice Brand Polisher
Nutritious Creme Masque
Perfecting Essence
Serum Intensive
Eye Nourisher
Day time emulsion
Night Renual
Having never used an item like this before, it was an interesting experience for my mother. She’ll be using all the items on a regular basis from now on.

Bilingual Fun: Spanish for Children, Volume 1 DVD
Wanting to teach your children Spanish, but not sure where to start? The Bilingual Fun Company makes it easy for children to learn!
Our package arrived very quickly in a padded envelope, and I was please with the quick service from the Bilingual Fun Company. The DVD Spanish for Children Volume 1 was an instant hit, and I was impressed as well.
Inside the DVD case was the words to all the songs included on the DVDs so parents can help sing along. Songs included on this DVD were the following:
The Hola Song (Hello Song)
Los Colores (Colors)
Diez Deditos (10 Numbers)
Chocolate (Chocolate)
Los Animales (Animals)
La Arana Pequenita (Itsy Bitsy Spider)
The Adios Song (Goodbye Song)
Each song and activities that followed focused on the very basics of Spanish, covering numbers, colors, and animals. As noted above, a few fun songs were thrown in as well to keep kids interested. For example, the chocolate song - what kid doesn’t love chocolate?
My kids enjoyed this DVD, and have begged me to “watch it again” several times in the few days we’ve had it. Both kids (age 3 and 5) have been extremely interested, and love to repeat words and sing along. My oldest was excited saying “I said colors in Spanish!”. The youngest was absolutely glued to the screen. I believe it helps having other children in the video singing along as well.

I am no scrapbooking expert. I don’t know my embellishments from my die cuts. But I don’t want to deny my daughter the chance to pick up a rewarding hobby just because I don’t know what I’m doing.
Little Scrappers has the solution for helping kids learn to scrapbook. These easy kits are perfect for kids, with step by step on how to complete their very own page. It’s easy for them to do even without a parent that knows scrapbooking!
We had the pleasure of completing the “All About Me” Layout, which is perfect as the first page of your child’s first scrapbook. It came complete with all the pieces needed to create an 8×8 layout as shown.
Each kit comes with large print instructions which are easy for kids to read and understand. My daughter is 5, and had absolutely no problems following the directions herself. I did have to read the instructions to her, but the color pictures made it very easy for her to actually SEE which parts she needed next.
We also had fun after the scrapbook page was done picking out the picture to go on it. She absolutely adored the fact this was a page all about her, and that SHE did it! It actually went to school with her for show-and-tell right after we did it, since it just happened to be her day to show.
These kits are very inexpensive, and make for absolutely perfect gifts for kids. Not only are you able to spend quality time creating something special with your kids, but it helps kids learn how to follow directions as well. With our order also came a small craft, which we can’t wait to do!

Little ones will absolutely love these socks, I know my youngest daughter did. Even after a year, these are still her favorite socks and begs me to wear them!
When the package arrived, my three yr old daughter had already been told she had “fun gifts” coming to her. I told her this box was for her, and she danced around for a bit asking “what is it, what is it?!” before it was opened. Jillian got to open it and was excited. Her first reaction was “hey, they match!”. She took off with them right out of the box to wear them for the entire day. I didn’t get them back until bed time!
Teresa, owner of Fly By Nite Creations, was sure to send a pair of socks in my daughter’s two favorite colors (pink and purple), which was part of the reason why she loved them so much. Each bead was carefully secured onto the end of the sock. There is also a purple button just above be beads in the shape of a flower. The detail on these socks is absolutely amazing!
My daughter had a great time the day she got them, showing them off to everyone and saying “look at my pretty socks!”. They match just about every outfit she owns because of the colors, so I know they will be worn often.
Washing instructions were included on a small card with the socks. It’s noted all beaded socks are machine washable, although need to be hung to dry or laid flat. Just being machine washable is great for me, or anyone that has little time to handwash items.
A cute “Thank you” card (which doubled as an invoice) was also included in the box. I thought this was a very nice, extra touch.
In addition to beaded socks, Fly By Nite Creations also offers Handmade Burp Cloths, Beaded Scrunchies, Photo Albums, and more. One of their most unique items has to be the Flowerpot Pens. I highly recommend checking those out, since they are a “must see to believe” item.
