Magic Lantern Kidz Story Kit Product Review/Giveaway

I was so excited when Magic Lantern contacted us and wanted us to do a review and a giveaway for their company.

I am simply amazed by this website. It's cute, lots of good information and they products are something every parent would love to do with their child/children.

Magic Lantern has given us the Kidz Story Kit to review. And I must say they thought of everything such as: An official "Magic Lantern Pathways to Literacy" booklet for Parents, Markers, Eraser, Pencil, Labels, Instruction Booklet, several pages of templates (Title Page, Copyright page, Dedication Page, etc. There are 30 all together). They give you ideas on what to write and what to do when you make a mistake.

I can't wait to do this with my son. Since the holidays are coming up and he is out of school(Thanksgiving Vacation, Christmas Vacation). This is a great project to do with him and of course the bonding between him and I will probably be just out of this world. And once it's all done, you send it back to Magic Lantern and they will bound the pages in a 7 x 8 1/2 size cloth (buckram)hard cover in your choice of 6 colors. The standard production time is 2-3 weeks.

Magic Lantern writes:

"PRESERVE YOUR CHILD'S CREATIVE IMPRINT FOREVER!!

Your child will never be at this age and stage of development again. Preserve their ideas, writing, and illustrations as a snapshot of who they are right now!"

I can't write that better myself. Our kids grow up so fast and we need to cheerish that every moment...

CLOSED: The simplehuman Sensor Soap Pump Product Review and Giveway

Just two weeks ago I recieved the Senor Soap pump from simplehuman and I have been amazed how great this product is. The first week of using it, made it so much fun in washing our hands. And my son now has a habbit of doing it all the time..... Which is what I was hoping for. Now since the H1N1 Swine Flu and other flus are hitting the schools, it is just as important to wash our hands constantly. The second week of using, was where we needed it most. The whole family came down with the flu and of course you know the rest. Wash, Wash, Wash your Hands.

"The entire process is touch-free, preventing cross contamination from dirty or wet hands. And "the newest sensor soap pump has a pop-up lid with a wide opening for mess-free refills and adjustable volume so can control how much soap is dispensed. A small blue Led display flashes when the sensor is activated and blinks when the batteries need to be replaced. And get this the sensor pump is engineered to save power, so the four AA batteries should only need replacing every six months." The price of this great product is so affordable that I was even amazed. It's only $ 30.00 and it comes in White or Black.

By the way, for people such as my father who had a stroke. And can nolonger use one of his arms, was really loving this product. He was able to wash his hands on his own, without the help of my mother pushing on a soap dispenser. Which was a great feeling for him, since everthing has changed. So as you can see, this is a must product to have.

You really need to go and check out their other products like the fingerprint proof trashcans, kitchen products, shampoo and soap dispensor, and etc. This company has been featured in many magazines and TV shows such as: Desperate Housewife, House, CSI Miami and etc.
