Edited to add: oh my gosh everybody, I am so sorry about the button fiasco!

I’ve corrected the button code, thank you everyone who so kindly commented to let me know about the mistake!

Because I still have MORE STUFF to give away, and because I had my wedding anniversary on Thursday and foolishly thought I would just have tons of time to do my usual blogging that day when I really didn’t, and because a friend had an emergency today and asked me to please let her son come over and spend all day and tonight, I wasn’t able to post as many giveaways this week as I had planned. SO, next week will be Giveaway Week AGAIN!

I’ll modify the banner and badge to reflect next week’s dates and post them first thing Monday morning. As with this week, everyone who posts either the banner or badge on their site is automatically entered into every giveaway. Here’s just some of what I know I’m giving away for sure, but I never know when a new sponsor will contact me and offer you readers a chance to win something else!

• Three winners will choose their favorite Family Talk game from Around the Table Games
• Five winners will each get THREE brand new hardback books from Harper Collins-”Blue Smoke and Murder” by Elizabeth Lowell, “Moose” by Stephanie Klein, and “Yes, You’re Pregnant, But What About Me?” by Kevin Nealon.

Plus I’ll be bringing you reviews of great products, too. If you haven’t already subscribed to my feed, what are you waiting for? You don’t want to miss all the fun next week!

Why is it that kids love to try on sunglasses, but can never actually keep them on? I’m always trying to entice my daughter with a pair that I think she will like, ones with little characters on them from the TV shows she watches, but she won’t keep them on. Did you know that until children are eight or nine years old, they have no filters in the eye to block out UV light? The problem with cheap sunglasses is that with the tint in front of the eye, the lens opens up, which actually lets in MORE UV light and can harm your child’s eyes! Yikes!

The solution to both how to protect our children’s eyes and keep the sunglasses on has been solved by Baby Banz, the original Australian-designed wraparound sunglasses. The original Baby Banz fit children up to age 2, and Kidz Banz fit children ages 2-5. Both come in 13 different colors like Flamingo Pink and Rockin’ Red, with these important features:
*Lenses provide 100% UVA/ UVB protection
*Category 3 lenses offer high sunglare reduction and good UV protection
*Durable polycarbonate
*Ophthalmic quality; capable of being replaced with prescription lenses
*Neoprene elastic strap matches chosen color of sunglasses and allows for flexibility, breathability, and comfort
*Side adjustable Velcro® allows for years of wear as the child grows
*Frame is made of shatter-resistant polycarbonate
*Sporty, sleek design

Kaitlyn looks adorable in hers, and they are very easy to adjust to fit. I really hope she agrees to wear them when we go out to play all summer. I’d like to get her photo posted on the “Banz Fanz” photo page! Check out Baby Banz on MySpace too, to see all the great awards they have won. I’m naming Baby Banz a MomReviews Fabulous Find and sending them a button they can put on their site, too!

You can win a pair of either Baby or Kidz Banz in your choice of colors by entering this giveaway, retail value is $15.00.

In the post below this one I’m giving away four Jellybean Reversible Baby Slings from Munchkin, make sure you enter to win! I also have more great products to tell you about if you are looking for unique, quality products designed to make parenting a lot easier.

Safety SunBlock Shades™ block heat, UV rays and glare coming in from the side window of your vehicle. The patented White Hot® heat alert will let you know if the car’s temperature is unsafe for your child. The retractable shade opens and closes with a 2-step release button, and is easy to adjust to any window. It stays securely on your window with suction cups and has a suction cup pull-handle. It makes everyone a little more comfortable in the car. Kaitlyn would love this Dora one, it also comes in Go, Diego, Go and SpongeBob.

The iCrib Sound System clips onto your baby’s crib and holds an iPod to play whatever music your baby likes. You can download Mozart lullabies from the product page. The iCrib also has a soothing light display, and three settings let you choose from music only, lights only, or music and lights.

Your unique baby should have a unique pacifier, so Munchkin has BLING™ pacifiers that are both stylish and safe. Like all Munchkin products, BLING pacifiers are independently tested and meet or exceed the safety standards for our industry as established by both ASTM International and CPSC. Made with a silicone orthodontic nipple and breathable shield, BLING pacifiers come in fun colors and designs. The two-pack I received (and will pass on to a friend) came with one in purple and one in lime green. The crystals are very firmly embedded, I ran my fingernail over them and there was no chipping or moving at all. I feel secure in recommending these pacifiers as a fun alternative to traditional ones.

Finally, my favorite of the products I received for review, the BLING™ Pacifier Tote. Kaitlyn received this purple Rockstar Tote, and she already has it full of tiny plastic animals and a chapstick and is carrying it around the house. What it’s really meant for is carrying extra pacifiers, of course, which keeps them clean and dry until needed. The Velcro strap makes it easy to hang the tote from the diaper bag strap or stroller handle so it’s close by. Check out the product page for other colors and designs.

Whether you need a baby shower gift, a present for a new Mom, or want to buy something useful and great-looking for YOUR new baby, check out all the great products sold by Munchkin!

When Steve Dunn started the company, his wife Laura told him that the products had better be good because real Moms were going to use them, including herself! She and their two little ones personally tested every design. Love that too! The Jellybean Reversible sling is machine washable, comes in four great designs and two sizes, and holds babies up to 35 pounds. It even has pockets on both sides. I’ve got four slings to give away courtesy of Formula P.R. and Munchkin. Open to U.S. and Canada entrants.
