FlattenMe Book Review

Our Story

All stories have a beginning. This is ours.

Years ago, my husband caught our daughter on film eating a gobstopper – 15 photos taken over 24 minutes and 10 seconds. The photos were arranged in a book and given to my daughter as a special gift. It was love at first sight. My daughter slept with it, ate with it, took it on road trips. Love-worn and long-admired, the book slowly fell apart, just like the fur on the Velveteen Rabbit.

I love to read.  It is my favorite past time.  I average 3+ books a week.  I try to teach my kids the joy of reading too.

Ben learned to read at a really early age (he was 3!!) and he loves to do it!!  Each night Ben Sr or I read them a story before bed, and then Ben Jr reads a story.  For every holiday where a gift is given, the boys get books.  You should see the amount of books they have in their room!!

One of my favorite types of books to give them is a personalized book with either their names in it, pictures or both.  It makes the books extra special.  Everyone loves books that are about them.  I even have a book that is a romance novel with Ben Sr and I in it!!  

When I was offered a chance to review a book through Flattenme, I was super excited.  I had a hard time trying to pick a favorite book to get.  I wanted to do something a little different then putting the kids faces in the book, so I picked a book I could put Ben Sr in instead!!  My SuperDad!!

This book is superb!!  The story itself is really cute, but I am amazed with the graphics and how perfect the pictures with my Husbands head on them are.  They look real!!  

Sometimes when you get books like this, the pictures look cut and paste.  These look like Ben Sr really wrestled an alligator, tackled a ski jump, and even hugged a deer!!  There are no cut and paste lines.  The pictures are very vivid, and eye catching.  Everyone I have shown the book too loves it, and is getting one of their own!!

Flattenme has a nice variety to choose from including GlitterGills (a mermaid story,) ABC & 123, and a Pirates book.  There's a book for everyone on your list!!

They also carry other fun personalized items like T-shirts, Wall Art, and Water Bottles.

If you are looking for a creative and fun gift for this Holiday Season, check out Flattenme!!

You can follow along for great deals and contests on their Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter accounts and their blog.  Right now they are hosting a huge giveaway with 33 different prizes to be won!!  You can check it out here!!

DormCo Review

**All opinions expressed are 100% my own.  I was not compensated for this post.  I was given a rug for review purposes.**

Dorm Co- College Dorm Supplies Superstore

Simply put, Dorm Co is your one stop shop for everything COLLEGE DORM.  Dorm Co offers the widest selection of essentials for your college dorm at the lowest prices.  Just because college tuition and textbooks cost an arm and a leg, it doesn't mean that your dorm supplies should too.  Dorm Co understands all it takes to prepare for heading off to college, leaving mom & dad and arriving on an exciting, yet unknown college campus.  Everything for setting up your dorm room should be a fun and enjoyable process.  By shopping at Dorm Co you can be confident that you have everything you need for college life and at prices that will make you brag to your friends.

When I went to college, I went to one two towns over from my parents house.  So instead of staying at the dorms, I just stayed home (where it was free for me!!)  My Husband choose a college two hours away from home so he stayed at the dorms.

When I first met Ben, he had just graduated from college, and had his first apartment.  He was still living like a college kid!!  His apartment had very little furniture, and what it did have was alcohol related!!  He had a huge liquor cabinet, and posters on the walls teaching you how to make certain drinks.  It took me awhile to convince him it was time to say goodbye to college life and join the land of adults.  

We both still miss those days though.  Care and fancy free!!

We have a couple more years before we have to start worrying about our kids heading to college, but I know a lot of you have just sent your kids, or are about too!!

There are a lot of things you need to get before living in the dorms.  Simple appliances, bedding, shower caddy's and of course food are top priorities, but I bet you forgot a nice rug.  Most dorm rooms have cold floors, and who wants to wake up to that!!

DormCo has everything you need for college life including a large selection of dorm sized rugs.  I was given the chance to review their Microfiber Dorm Rug and I love it!!

Yes that is a gorgeous lavender rug, and boy is it soft!!  It feels like silk!!  It is also thin, so it is very easy to fold up and transport with you.  Another thing I love about it is it's non slip backing.  This rug will not slip out from under you when you are quietly sneaking back in your room at night as to not wake up your roommate!!

As I said, DormCo has everything a college student could possibly need for their dorm rooms.  If you have a student on your shopping list this year, make sure you check out DormCo to get them those must have gifts!!

Teach My For Kids Review And ~~Giveaway~~

"When my son was 18 months old, I quickly realized that parents are the most important teachers. I spent countless hours scouring stores for tools to teach the alphabet, teach counting and teach reading. When I couldn't find one kit that did it all, I began creating my own teaching tools that matched some of the tools I had purchased. My son was reading by the age of three and parents at nursery school were asking how I had taught him. It was at this point that I learned "matching" was a key pre-reading skill for young children.

I began structuring focus groups with moms and playgroups to develop an all-in-one learning kit for toddlers based on the matching method of teaching. Using the knowledge I gained from the focus groups, I evolved the teaching tools into a coordinated set and called it Teach My Toddler. The overwhelming success of Teach My Toddler in helping parents give their children a head start had me fielding demand after demand for a kit that could be used with babies and another one for preschoolers. I have continued my passion and created the Teach My series including Teach My Baby, Teach My Toddler, Teach My Preschooler, Sections by Teach My and Add-ons by Teach My. In my case, necessity truly was the mother of invention!"

Christy Cook
President, Teach My

One thing as a parent that I worry about, is if my child is in line developmentally with other kids their age.  Ben Jr learned how to write his full name by the age of 3.  Doug who is 4, is still learning.  Are kids supposed to know all their letters and numbers before they start school??  Are they supposed to be able to write their name before then too??

Each day we sit down with Doug and help him write.  He knows all his letters and numbers, and can even read a little, but he is having some difficulty with writing out his name.  

When I heard of Teach My products, I knew I had to try them with Doug.  I was sent the Teach My Preschooler kit, and Teach My Preschooler The Time kit to review with him.

Instantly he was very excited to see what was in the box.  

Right away we sat down with the drawing board and letters, and had Doug start practicing his name.  In the kit were stencil like letters to write over so he could form the letters properly.  He had a ton of fun.  After he wrote his own name a couple of times, he moved on to writing his brothers, and aunts names.

Besides the drawing board, the kit includes 

10 Readers
60 Flashcards
1 Flashcard Reward Tin
1 Flashcard Holder
1 Magic Drawing Board
78 Print Transparencies & Printing Guide
101 Train Flashcards
3 Posters
2 Flip-Books
Foam Numbers, Counters and Equation Signs
Teaching Guide
Storage case

We also reviewed the Teach My Preschooler Time Kit.  That was a lot of fun to use too.  It came with- 

Book
Teaching Clock
Digital Time Maker
Wipe-Off Crayons
Teaching Guides
Storage Bag

Doug had a great time telling us the numbers on the digital type display.  He still has a hard time with the analog like clock.  He will get there though!!

Teach My has kits for all different age groups, and learning skills.  They would make a great gift for any young child!!

How would you like to win a kit of your own??  I am very happy to be able to give one lucky reader which ever Teach My Kit you would like (Baby, Toddler or Preschooler.)

Zazoo Kids Photo Clock Review

**All opinions expressed are 100% my own.  I was not compensated for this post.  I was given a clock for the purpose of this review.**

ZAZOO Photo Clock helps kids and parents get more sleep. It's an innovative sleep solution for children who wake too early or do not stay in bed all night. Parents can use the pre-programmed images or personalized options set to an alarm time, and the screen will give children visual cues when it's time to get out of bed. The photo clock grows with your child with features including a rotating photo frame, music, audio book, alarm clock, and more.

Anyone who has kids knows that as a parent, you can forget about sleep.  Not by choice I might add!!  

In the beginning, you have an infant that eats a lot and is up every few hours.  As your kids get older, they create their own sleep schedules, and they are usually not what you would like.  Kids just do not understand sleeping in!!

Now that my boys are older, and can read numbers, they need to learn to tell time!!  This is where Zazoo kids comes in.

Zazoo offers personalized alarm clocks to help teach kids when they should be awake, and when it is bed time.

The clock is very simple to use, and a lot of fun to add your own special touches to!!

After playing around for a while trying to figure out what pictures I wanted to put on the clock, I found this really cute one of my boys. 

The clock allows you to use either a USB cable, Flash Drive or a memory card to add the photos.  It also comes with a built in easy to use stand.

All of the buttons you will need are easily displayed on the back, or you can use the handy dandy remote!!

Another thing I love about the clock is that you can add your own music, or use the really cute songs that are already programmed on there!!  There are three different times you can set the alarms for- Wake up, Bed Time and Nap Time.  

I have been playing around with some graphics, and plan on making something extra special for my boys to use as the background image.

Zazoo clocks would make a great gift for kids of all ages and are sold in many different stores including Amazon!!

Ornaments With Love Review And ~~Giveaway~~

**All opinions expressed are 100% my own.  I was not compensated for this post.  I was given the below ornament for review**

Ornaments with Love is a company run by a family that has been in the retail gifts business for over 50 years.

For the past 16 years, we have taken our experience and applied it to selling personalized Christmas ornaments in Connecticut and Washington, DC area malls, 6 years on the Internet.

You may have seen us in Tyson's Corner, Montgomery, Lakeforest or Trumbull Malls.

Read about our Personalized Ornaments and view our catalog of 2000+ Personalized Christmas Ornaments.

It's the most wonderful time of the year!!  Christmas decorations are out in full force, Holiday Baking will soon start, and people are just generally in a terrific mood.

This is my favorite time of year.  I count down the minutes until I can start decorating!!

I always check the Christmas sections of the stores I go into to see if there are any new decoration that I would like to purchase.  I am constantly looking for new ornaments to add to our trees.  Yes I wrote trees plural.  Over the last 14 years, Ben and I have collected so many ornaments that we need two trees.  We get special ones when we travel, when we celebrate certain milestones, and a new one each year to mark how our family has grown and changed.

This year was bittersweet for us with pets.  We lost our bunny (Honey.)  She was at least 9 years old.  She was a rescue bunny so we are not sure how old she was exactly.  She was very sweet, and actually gave you kisses!!

We did add a new family member to our broad.  We have Princess Jasmine (she's a bunny!!)  Now we are a family of two adults, two kids, one puppy, and three bunnies.

I was given the chance to get a new ornament through Ornaments With Love for review, and I choose one that shows all of our family members!!

This is the first time that I have seen an ornament that allows you to put that many names on it.  Most allow up to four.  

I love the way that even though it is a simple design, there is a lot of detail, and the ornament looks very fancy.  The personalization is very neat and legible!!

Over all I am very happy with my ornament, and I can not wait to get my tree so I can hang it up!!

Make sure you check out the large assortment of ornaments to choose from at Ornaments With Love and get your orders in for the upcoming Holiday Season!!

How would you like to win one for yourself or someone on your shopping list??
