Giveaways at Mommies United

There are two great contests going on over at Mommies United, these are the links:

1. Win a Furminator deshedding tool for pets, requires visiting the sponsor site and then leaving a comment on the post, ends April 17th.

2. This is the 2nd week of their 12 week Cupcake Courier giveaway. To enter to win this week, create a poem using the letters in the word “CUPCAKE”. You can leave your poem in the comments or, for an extra entry, post it on your own blog, then go and leave the URL on the Mr. Linky. Here’s mine:

“C” is for the Cupcakes that we’re baking,
“U” is for the you and me and Us
“P” is for the Pleasure that we’re making,
“C” is for the Chocolate without fuss.
“A” is for the Adding of the sugar,
“K” is for the Kiss upon my cheek,
“E” is for the Eating when we’re finished.
Put it all together it spells CUPCAKE, a treat that we deserve to end our week!

I seriously just wrote that off the top of my head. My college Creative Writing Prof would be so proud :)

Little Jet Set-Cute, functional travel items

Little Jet Set was founded by two mothers, Hana S. Wolf & Nisha T. Cordero, who left the practice of law to share their extensive knowledge of how to keep kids entertained on planes, trains, and in automobiles without resorting solely to electronic gadgets. Their website is packed with an outstanding collection of products designed to help make travel easier and more fun for both kids and parents!

All of the brands whose products are carried by Little Jet Set are of the highest quality and are carefully chosen. To give me an idea of what is available on the site, Lisa at KidStuffPR sent me two great products to review.

This Bee Lightening Bug flashlight by Manhattan Toy has an easy on/off button switch and shuts off automatically. It comes with two AA batteries and is meant for ages 3 and up. It’s a cute toy AND a flashlight!

From the Luggage and Bags category, I received this Wet/Dry Case by Room-It-Up in adorable pink and green plaid. It’s got a divider so that your wet toothbrush or bath sponge can go on one side, and the items on the other side stay dry. You bet I’m packing it when I go to Disney in two weeks!

I skimmed through all of the categories on Little Jet Set and here are just some of the great things I found to use when traveling-Craft kits, coloring books, flashcards, cute hooded beach towels that fold up into pillows, Nocturnimals, which are stuffed animals that gently glow with the touch of their paw and stay lit for four minutes, games for the car-cards, magnetic games, puzzles with oversized pieces in a zippered travel bag, travel journals and scrapbooks, soft Playsets that are smooshable and machine washable (love the Snow White and the Seven Dwarves finger puppets!) and the Trunki, a rolling suitcase that toddlers can ride on while you pull them by a strap-cute and fun!

Whew! I’m telling you, before you take your next trip, check out Little Jet Set! Whatever you need (or don’t know you need yet), I bet they have it! Thank you again to Little Jet Set and KidStuffPR for sending the flashlight and the wet/dry case for this review.
