Mickey’s Magic Choo Choo by Fisher-Price – Review + Giveaway!

Here is another great product from Fisher-Price.
Do you love Mickey Mouse?  He’s an old classic and a legend all on his own.  Mickey Mouse is the kind of character we get to pass down to our children for them to love and enjoy as we did, or maybe some of us still do!
This product from Fisher Price is called Mickey’s Magic Choo Choo.
This is super fun to play and your children just have a blast watching Mickey go around and around, OR you can have him switch up his tracks as his train goes on his little way.

This toy is totally cute and tons of fun.

Young boys and girls will be “all aboard!” with amazement as Mickey’s Magic Choo Choo lays its own tracks, just like on the Disney special episode “Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Rides the Choo-Choo Express!”.  When kids press the button on this magical train, it rolls forward and lays pieces of track, right in front of it, all by itself. The train will then ride over the track and magically pick it back up again as the fun “Choo Choo” song plays and Mickey speaks. Kids can shift gears for traditional on-track play, too.   $39.99/ 3+

This is a really fun toy and can get your child’s creative juices flowing.  Parents have a chance to interact with their children and watch the amazement in their child’s eyes.
I love how Mickey’s train picks up the tracks and lays it back down to keep moving forward.

Set Includes:

Additional Information:

I really love how Mickey builds his Choo Choo track as he rides on.
I know my son absolutely loves trains, as well as my nephew so it’s a good assumption that most boys and girls, also love trains.

Here is a small clip of what I found on the Mickey’s Magic Choo Choo;

I told ya it was small   But still, the fact of the matter is is that your child will enjoy playing with Mickey’s Magic Choo Choo.
This would make a wonderful Christmas gift for that special little someone in your life.

Fisher-Price would like to offer a Mickey’s Magic Choo Choo to one Barefoot Mommies Reader.

TRIO Building Set with storage by Fisher-Price – Review + Giveaway!

When the Holiday Season starts rolling around I really find products I’ve never seen before and just beat my expectations.  Believe it or not, even with 4 kids I really try not to hit the toy isles because I always have 4 kids who are begging for something.  I can never just go ‘look’ and see what’s new.
I’m never lucky enough to get a moment to myself….ever!
So I look online, which in return it really gives me more options and shows me what’s the hot items this year and a lot more selection.

This year I have been really impressed by Fisher-Price’s toys, and yes, I’ve always been a fan of Fisher-Price, it’s not like their new or anything   But since I don’t look very often I get excited when I see a new product I know one of my kids will love, or even a child I know will love.

If you’ve never heard of this brand, you really need to check it out!

Trio is a building blocks set that is easy to assemble and have tons and tons of play with them.  If your children love to build things then Trio would be perfect for them.  It’s for ages 3-5 but to be honest I really believe older kids can have a lot of fun with Trio as well.

The set I was sent is the TRIO™ Building Set with storage.  Of course what’s great about this is after play they have a nice storage case all the pieces can go into.  And HOPEFULLY you won’t be stepping on the pieces as you would with other brands LOL.
The lid of the Storage Box comes off and you can use it to start a structure and play as you can see in the above picture.
Your child’s creativity can really shine with the Trio Storage Set.

And plus, they will be really proud of themselves with the come up with something that is absolutely awesome!
Easy to build, so many ways! Easy-click bricks, sticks, and panels, plus a play figure, make building a “snap” for kids. They can build suggested designs, or build things all their own! Includes 100 pieces in a convenient storage tub. Great for take along play—the storage bin lid doubles as a building base! All pieces in the TRIO™ Building System work together. Collect them all and build a world of fun!

The rating for this toy is 5 stars!  So you know that you’re really getting a great toy that will last and teach our children motor skills, and let their creativity come out and shine.

Fisher-Price is giving one Barefoot Mommies reader a TRIO™ Building Set with storage of their own.

:: Win It ::
Go to Fisher-Price and tell us one product that you would love to have, besides the Trio sets.

HEELYS – Review + Giveaway

These are some really cool shoes!  Kids absolutely love them.  Go skating with your tennis shoes on and have a ball.

Heelys, Inc. designs, markets and distributes innovative, action sports-inspired products under the HEELYS(R) brand targeted to the youth market. The Company’s primary product, HEELYS-wheeled footwear, is patented dual purpose footwear that incorporates a stealth, removable wheel in the heel. HEELYS-wheeled footwear allows the user to seamlessly transition from walking or running to skating by shifting weight to the heel. Users can transform HEELYS-wheeled footwear into street footwear by removing the wheel. HEELYS-wheeled footwear provides users with a unique combination of fun and style that differentiates it from other footwear and wheeled sports products.

On the HEELYS website there is a part that teaches your child how to skate.  The steps are simple and in no time your child will have the skills to become a master at skating.  Have fun and actually be able to get out the house which I don’t know about you all, but that’s exactly what I want.  Go out and exercise and have a blast.
I do however hate seeing kids ride around in stores with HEELYS because at times they run into you and just aren’t careful.  But at home, or at a park it’s a different story. Not to mention if I let my kids do that in a store my mom would have my butt lol.

I was sent two pairs of HEELYS for my older 2 children.  My oldest daughter received;

And it’s great that they come in her size.  9 1/2 women, and she’s 12!

Then my son received these really awesome shoes;

He’s been wanting a pair of ‘Converse’ like shoes so these are absolutely perfect for him.  Plus he will absolutely love to practice riding around.  But I do suggest kids using a helmet, especially just starting out.  Possibly knee, wrist and elbow pads as well lol.

The HEELYS shoes are made awesome and built to with-stand wear and tear.
It will take a little time and practice for someone who never tried HEELYS before to get the skating down, but with time they will be a pro in no time!

I love the awesome styles that HEELYS come in.  They have a huge variety of styles of shoes and they are sure to please any child.  I also love that the ‘wheels’ come out and they can be worn as regular tennis shoes too.

HEELYS also has a new line coming out December 1st.  These look awesome and I managed to snag a picture from their website as a sneak peak!

Learn to skate 2x faster, and 2x easier with the double wheel HEELYS.

They will have awesome styles to chose from!
Again, these come out 12/1/09!  JUST in time for that special child on your Christmas list!

HEELYS is offering one Barefoot Mommies reader a chance to win a pair of HEELYS of their very own.
The winner will simply tell me the sex of the child and size and HEELYS will pick one of their most popular styles and get it to you by Christmas for gift giving!

:: Win It ::
Go to HEELYS and tell me which pair you would pick if you were buying a pair.

Adorable Kinders – Review + Giveaway

Talk about the most cutest ‘Rag dolls’ I’ve ever seen!  Adorable Kinders are simply wonderful.
I was given a doll to review and to be honest, most ‘rag dolls’ are pretty small, so when I opened the box I was surprised at the size of the doll.  She was STUNNING.  I received Mari (Which is also the name of the Mid-Wife who delivered all of my kids).  She is just beautiful.  A soft body wrapped in the most gorgeous red dress.  I am saving this doll for Kyria for Christmas so I had to hurry and snap a picture of her in the box, I don’t want her out just yet.  I know Kyria is going to absolutely love her.
This is Mari, and she is more beautiful up close than in the picture.

I want to share the story about how Adorable Kinders was started.  This brought tears to my eyes and just makes me love this company even more.  This remarkable woman is beyond generous, kind and has a huge heart.
I couldn’t find the information on the site, but I received an informative on how Adorable Kinders was started.  Please take the time to read this, it may very well touch your heart as it did mine.

” A Mother’s Dream, a Son’s Legacy, a Wonderful Toy”

Aranza made her first doll for her baby sister when she was just 16 years old.  Everyone loved the doll and many people asked her to make one for them.  She loved to design and create.  Each doll was better than the last.  Over time while raising her 3 children and working in different careers such as school teacher, clay artisan and Senior Software Engineer for an aerospace company, Aranza created an entire concept for educating children while having fun using cartoon characters that match the dolls and fun computer games for small children to play.

Ivan was Aranza’s eldest child and her most supportive partner in her quest.  After high school. he was devoted to making the educational adorable dolls a success.  Together they worked relentlessly making the dolls and testing the market in local malls and trade shows.  Just as their ideas and efforts seemed to be coming together, God called Ivan home.  Ivan had a very rare heart condition that had gone unnoticed.  He died while riding his bicycle on the way home from work.  Ivan was only 24 years old.  Aranza put everything away.

I came into the picture a couple years later.  After being together for some time, Aranza showed me one of the dolls.  She made it as a birthday gift for the daughter of a friend.  I’m not exactly what you would call a “doll-friendly guy” but her doll was absolutely adorable.  When I saw the reaction from everyone, literally everyone, that held this doll, I knew it was very special.  Aranza and I talked about it for more than a year before she decided to try it again.  This would be Ivan’s legacy.

We refined the ideas, the doll characters, and the clothes.  We created the interactive cartoons school and dubbed it the “eSchool”.  We decided to manufacture the, ourselves here in the United States instead of sending them overseas.  We wanted to create local jobs and do something to help our homeland economy.

In 2007 we started.  Several design changes, misfortunes, miracles, tragedies and celebrations later, including Whoopi Goldberg and the ABC Show The View, Dwight Howard and the NBA playoffs, planes, trains, and automobiles, and thanks to family, friends and angels, we now have a factory running full steam in Florida and some wonderful products that appear to be in high demand.

If not for Ivan and his mother’s deam, we would not be here today and thousands of children would not be enjoying the lifetime keepsakes we create.  The Adorable Kinders are truly Ivan’s Legacy.

This was truly a remarkable story that touched my heart, and this is a wonderful legacy for a child to leave behind and help the mother grow and be thankful.

You can tell that these dolls are made with love, each and everyone of them.  You can see it in the work placed into each doll.  The dolls aren’t heavy, but they aren’t cheaply made.  They do have a little heaviness to them but they are cuddly soft and perfect for little hands to carry around.

The Adorable Kinders are very high quality soft-dolls (true rag dolls) exclusively designed for GRANZA, Inc. by famed artisan Aranza Zamora. The fundamental theme of the Adorable Kinders collection is an active group of kindergarten friends.  Each student has been designed with a different personality in mind. The name of each character begins with a unique letter from the English alphabet. ‘A’ is Alise, ‘B’ is Brittany, ‘C’ is Christy, and so on.
Each doll comes with an internet key-code that may be used to register online at the “Adorable Kinders eSchool”. There children can play educational games that make learning fun (Preschool and grades K-6).  When all of the games for a grade level are successfully completed, the child graduates to the next grade. Children can sleep comfortably with Adorable Kinders rag dolls.  They have been engineered for durability while eliminating the uncomfortable hard plastic heads and extremities that other dolls have. They are 100% soft cloth rag dolls. Adorable Kinders rag dolls come dressed in a removable colorful outfit with separate underwear, socks and shoes.  The clothes are interchangeable from one doll to another. Both the Adorable Kinders rag dolls and their clothes are all washable! Additional clothing outfits and accessories are available and may be purchased separately.  New designs of seasonal and holiday apparel and accessories will introduced each year. The Adorable Kinders soft-doll stuffing is made from non-allergenic 100% polyester.  The dolls are approximately 18” (45cm) tall and weigh less than 2 pounds (.45kg).  They are safe for children ages 3 and older. All our dolls and toys are manufactured in the United States. This is just a remarkable company and I am SO honored to have the chance to work with them.

Adorable Kinders wants to offer one Barefoot Mommies reader a chance to win a Kinders doll of their very own.

There is a choice of dolls, and believe me it will be a very hard choice.  You have 26 available dolls to pick from.  One winner will get the doll of their choice as the prize.

:: Win It ::

Go to Adorable Kinders and tell us which doll you would pick if you won.

Waterpik – Review + Giveaways!

Since 1962, Water Pik has been a leader in developing and manufacturing innovative personal and oral health care products. Our products are available through mass-merchandisers, home centers, drug chains, clubs, specialty retailers, wholesalers, and contractors.

Our Mission: To be the first choice of our global customers for innovative, stylish, high-value products that enhance health and wellness and support sustainability.

Leaders in Innovation: Since the issuance of our first patent in 1967, we’ve maintained a steadfast commitment to developing innovative products that enable you to treat yourself better. Over the years, we’ve acquired more than 500 patents, and our products have been recognized for award-winning design and technology.

Of course we all know what Waterpik is, right?  Well I of course thought it was something for your teeth.  And it is, but not only does Waterpik have a great tool for your teeth they also have shower heads.

I have a huge love of a nice relaxing shower, I’m not much into baths, but I do love the nice hot showers.  It’s always kind of tricky if you don’t have the right kind of shower head to give you that ‘AHH’ feeling.  To be honest, I never really had one…I thought I had a nice shower head but that was before I was able to review one of Waterpik’s shower heads.  Oh My Goodness!  I was in heaven to say the least.

I received the EasySelect 5 Mode hand-held.

LAT-569 / Brushed Nickel

Designed for those with discriminating taste who want to experience the ultimate in shower style and performance. All EasySelect^™ products feature an in-handle spray mode selector, which makes selecting sprays easier than ever. Designed with OptiFLOW® technology that increases water force up to 30% by optimizing water flow, so you feel refreshed and invigorated.

• 5 ” Round Shower Head
• Advanced OptiFLOW Technology
• Easy Clean Nozzles
• Removable Flow Regulator
• Limited Lifetime Warranty

• High/Low Concentrated Center Spray
• Circular Massage
• Power Spray / Pulsating Massage
• Misting
• Water Saver

This shower head feels so good on your skin, it’s so refreshing and soothing you’ll never want to get out of the shower.
This shower head retails for $59.99 and can be found at Waterpik website or you can purchase it at Home Depot.
This is worth the money, let me tell you!

My husband isn’t into those fancy smancy shower heads, he says they are a waste of money and you can get the same affects using just a regular shower head.  “You come out clean either way, so why spend more money!”
Of course when we tried the Waterpik EasySelect 5 Mode hand-held his thoughts on it seriously changed!
When he first came out of the shower he said, “OK…by far the best shower ever!”
haha…Yeah, Krissy is always right!

The EasySelect 5 Mode hand-held was easy to install, you just twist it on and you don’t need any special parts.  Takes less than 2 minutes to install and a lifetime of enjoyment!

All of Waterpik’s shower heads look wonderful, and they all range in price.  $59.99 is the most you will pay, but they have many others you really need to check out.  If they feel anything like EasySelect 5 Mode hand-held it is an excellent deal!

And of course Waterpik also has the little gadgets for your teeth!  I didn’t review this, so I will grab all the information off of the website for you to read about.

Wow…that was really interesting!
I hate flossing, I mean REALLY hate it and I try to find the easiest ways for me to do it.  Course I think I am just lazy heh.  But seriously, this looks awesome!

The Waterpik Ultra has state-of-the-art dental water jet technology and provides the ultimate in performance. It comes with six tips, including the new orthodontic and toothbrush tips.

If you have braces, the Waterpik Ultra with the orthodontic tip is more than three times as effective as floss at removing plaque.^–2–

You’ll see results in 14 days or less! Guaranteed!

Whimsy Rings – Review + Giveaway!

I am always trying to find the most unusual and creative jewelry for either myself, or my daughter.  I like to stand out and have something people can talk about.  Something that’s eye catching and stunning all at the same time.
Let me tell you a little about Whimsy.  When I first heard of them I was amazed at the quality and the uniqueness of their product.  Whimsy creates rings, but not just any ring, a very unique and something eye catching and just all in all fabulous!  I was able to review a ring for myself, my daughter Alysia & I share it of course, and this ring has gotten more comments then any other jewelry that I’ve worn.  I’m sure you’re wanting to see what I am talking about;

I know what you’re thinking.  The same I was thinking, it’s costume jewelry.  It’s not!

The WHIMSY™ collection by R. Craig Whitten offers an exciting new way to showcase striking collectible glass beads. WHIMSY™ rings accommodate a vast array of glass beads made by the major bead manufacturers including Trollbeads, Pandora™ and Chamilia™. Their interchangeability allows the wearer to express their individuality and easily change the ring to match an outfit, complementary jewelry or even a mood.

Because precious metals and gemstones are finite resources, the WHIMSY™ line is crafted entirely from reclaimed sterling silver, 14-karat gold and gemstones. Today’s consumers expect more from the products they purchase — merchandise that is created responsibly.

The Whimsy rings start out at $125 and go up to $299.  These rings are beautifully crafted and just all together eye catching.  When you look at them on someone else you might think that it doesn’t look very comfortable, but in fact it is.

The Audrey is created using reclaimed sterling silver and provides an exciting new way to showcase striking, collectible glass beads. The Audrey is shown here paired with a bead by Trollbeads, however, WHIMSY™ rings can accommodate glass beads made by all of the major bead manufacturers including Trollbeads, Pandora™ and Chamilia™. Beads are used for illustrative purposes only. Rings are sold without beads and a variety of beads can be purchased separately.

The rings you can easily change the glass bead out to go with your outfit, ect.  It’s really easy and you won’t sit and get frustrated because you can’t figure it out.

A double-threaded center post means no twisting. No struggling. Simply unscrew the end cap to release the bead. End caps incorporate incised details to allow a firm grip.

The double-threaded center post is ultra secure. Beads are almost impossible to lose because the thread runs not only through the 1st end cap, but the 2nd one as well!

The rings are so adjustable that they accommodate a wide range of bead widths from the major Murano glass bead manufacturers. WHIMSY™ rings are even compatible with many one-of-a-kind art beads by lampwork artists.

Beads are used for illustrative purposes only. A wide array of beads may be purchased separately.

The beads run about $34.00 and there are alot to pick from.  They offer beautiful colors and styles.

This is the Chamilia™ Beads

But you can also get a little more creative and pick something from their Carousel Beads which are just SO cute and SO unique.

I just love the turtle!

There are tons of beads you can purchase for your Whimsy ring.  These rings are very durable and just simply beautiful.

Whimsy was generous and not only offered a ring for me to review, but also a ring to give away to one lucky Barefoot Mommies reader!
