Rainbow Bandz Organization Box

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.
There's no doubt that rainbow loom band bracelets are the latest fad that have captivated kids and adults around the world, and my 8-year old daughter is no exception. She's into the loom band craze too!

Loom bands are maybe just a fad but as a mom, I'm a fan for their many therapeutic benefits. It can teach kids important skills like attention to details, concentration, creativity, fine motor skills, and a lot more. If you don't know anything about rainbow loom, well you and your kids are missing out!
Making loom band bracelet is fun, but sometimes the rubber bands and other pieces can get all over the place and make a mess! If you are not a fan of mess and clutter like me, you need to get a Rainbow Bandz Organization Box from getrainbowbandz.com.
The Rainbow Bandz Organization Box is a clear plastic organizer case for rainbow loom and rubber bands with adjustable compartments. It has plenty of rooms to fit the rainbow loom kit and other connectors. This product is durable and high quality. I really loved it! It's absolutely a perfect fit for keeping the rubber band colors and allows my daughter to take it on the go.
My daughter was so happy with her new Rainbow Bandz Organization Box. I guess she don't need to store the rubber bands in a container. She liked the idea of getting rid of those containers that used to take a lot of space in her toy room.
I would highly recommend this organization box to everyone! For more details or would like to order, you should visit getrainbowbandz.com today!

I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

I Hate Birds Poop!

How often do you wash your car? I usually bath my car once every 3 months...lol!
I recently started washing my car regularly. I know, what a pain! Honestly, I didn't plan to wash my car every week but I'm forced to do it because my side mirrors and the top of my convertible are now a target to birds. Boy, it's like their newly discovered stomping ground. Those birds have been pooping on my car almost every single day. Geez, it drives me nuts...lol!
I wish I have enough room to put the car in the garage, so I won't have to wash the car every week.

I should try this sometime...nyahahha!

Interactive Educational Children's Toys @LearningJourney

Have you ever noticed that video games and other tech systems have become such a familiar part of today's culture? Nowadays, most kids I know are engrossed in electronic games and other gadgets. Honestly, I rarely see kids playing outside these days. My daughter on the other hand is only allowed to use computers and watch a movie on the weekends, and sometimes with limited use. As a concern mom, I think it is best to let our kids use their brains, limit screen time and use their imagination with games, social relationships, and other outdoor activities.
So if you are planning to buy toys that will help build your child's creativity and skills, you might want to check The Learning Journey International. The Learning Journey International is an award-winning company selling quality educational products, puzzles, electronic toys, and games for children.
I was given the opportunity to work with them and review one of their Techno Gears Marble Mania, the Coaster Series. My daughter was so ecstatic when the toy arrived, and was overwhelmed with all the pieces!
The product is beautifully made and the instructions are very clear and easy to follow. My daughter was able to put it together after a few hours with some help from us. I thought the assembly process was over 5 hours but well worth the time. Hey, we're a team!
This building assembly kit has 400 colorful pieces that can create your own thrill ride. Each piece is very well made and high quality. The automatic marble launcher will propel marbles through the giant marble loop and into a series of twisting and turning roller coaster tracks accompanied by fun roller coaster sounds. The set includes multiple channels, 3-D connectors and structures, dual spiral lifters, flashing lights and much more.
Kids will also learn many things that go along with this toy; patience, logic, and all things that contribute to a child's overall development. Pay attention to details is a must! My daughter's favorite part is the roller coaster sound effects with kids screaming in the background. She is having a blast every time she plays with it.
This is definitely a one of a kind gift and kids would absolutely love it! It's cool, colorful, and entertaining. I would highly recommend this fun learning toy to everyone.

10 Ways to Save Money on Shoe Shopping

Shoe shopping can be an extremely fun thing to do, and finding ways to save money when shoe shopping only makes it better. 6pm provides amazing opportunities when it comes to shopping for shoes online.
The following are 10 great ways to save money while shopping for shoes:
1. Shop Online: The internet has changed the way that we look at shopping today, and that is no different when shopping for shoes.  Finding great deals is always easy when you shop for your shoes online.  Simply include the word sale or deals in your online search and watch as the specials roll in. if you are shopping from sites like 6pm then don’t forget to search 6pm coupon codes in search engines. You will find up to 60% discount on select brands.
2Consider Shopping for Your Shoes During the Off SeasonThis will take some planning but when done correctly, will save you quite a bit of money.  As each season gets closer to its end, stores begin dropping the prices on merchandise to nearly nothing, in many cases.  They want to clear space for the next season’s merchandise, and customers who watch for these sales can enjoy amazing benefits.
3Do it Yourself Shoe DesigningThis option can be extremely beneficial, especially for anyone who enjoys purchasing shoes with a little “bling” on them.  Consider using glitter, and sparkling beads to add a little flair to your lightly used shoes. 
4Create a List and Stick with it: Taking inventory is a great way to assess your shoe situation before going out and spending money on new shoes.  Sort through what can, and can’t, be used and write down exactly what you think you will be need.  This is a great way to focus on the necessities.  
5Take Advantage of an Online Auction SiteAuction websites can be a diamond in the rough, when you use them with discretion.  eBay, for example, is a great online auction site perfect for using to find a great deal on shoes.  Keep in mind, however, that you should always set a limit for getting involved in an auction.  This will help you keep from going overboard without realizing it.  
6. Mix and Match Your Wardrobe:  This can be very beneficial if you know what you are doing.  It can reveal possibilities that you might never have thought existed.  Look at your current clothing and shoe situation, and match outfits with color coordinated shoes.  This is a great way to assess your overall shoe situation.  
7Take Care of the Shoes that you Purchase:  This would seem to be an absolute no-brainer, but it is something that many need to be reminded of.  Taking care of your shoes will help themlast much longer and when your shoes last longer, you save money in the end.
8Quality Control: Getting into the habit of purchasing shoes without checking their quality can be a bad habit to get into.  Low quality shoes fall apart much quicker than shoes that have been made to last.  Understanding what to look for, in quality shoes, is the best place to begin.   
9Less isn’t Always Better:  Much like the previous recommendation, understanding that cheap shoes aren’t always the best shoes to purchase is a great rule to go by.  While you might save money on your initial shoe purchase, the likelihood of it falling apart is extremely high.  
10. Take Your Shoes for a Test Drive:  Although the price difference is great, purchasing shoes can be compared to purchasing a car.  You wouldn’t purchase a car without test driving it first, and you shouldn’t purchase a pair of shoes without walking in them first.  This will help to ensure that you don’t regret your purchase after it is too late.

#Coolway | The Knotty Girl Brush

My daughter have a very long wavy hair that tangles very easily. It's a struggle every day to get her hair brushed without fussing and whining. We used to have a detangling brush before but it's not as durable as the Knotty Girl Brush from Coolway.
The Knotty Girl Brush detangle your hair with No Pulling, No Pain, and No Breakage! Though it might look like any other brush, the magic of the Knotty Girl Brush is in the bristles.
These innovative SoftFlow bristles are specially designed to bend when they encounter a tough knot, loosening it a fractional amount as the next bristle loosens it a little more. By the time the knot is met by the 15th or 16th bristle, it opens up completely without pulling your hair out. The result leaves your hair free of knots, without the aggravation, breakage and pain caused by a regular hair brush.
I really love this brush, it gets through tough tangles with ease! It also adds a nice shine without causing any static. It's lightweight, durable, and works on all hair types: women, men, wet or dry hair. I would highly recommend this brush to everyone!
For more details or would like to order, you should visit www.coolwayhair.com and use this 10% OFF promo code when you order: mycoolway17. You might want to like them on Facebook or follow them on Twitter for updates and promotions. So what are you waiting for?
