Jessica Alba just launched The Honesty Company. This is an eco-friendly line of family essentials offered through a monthly subscription service at Honest.com. Created for parents by parents, The Honest Company is committed to making safe, sustainable products more convenient, beautiful, and affordable.

Jessica Alba wanted to form this company when she discovered that many so-called ‘eco-brand’ products continued to use ‘toxic chemicals’ and were merely packaged in more easily recyclable packaging.

She named the company after her daughter Honor and the website is based around a subscription model. That will provide consumers with with monthly deliveries of baby products such as nappies, shampoo and laundry detergent.

We are so excited for this brand new company! It has such a great mission and is something that will meet a real need. Visit honest.com for more information.

Sweet Peaches Bedding

We recently moved and when we did we redecorated my sons’s bedrooms so that they would suit both my boy’s tastes. And when we re-organized their room we also added new bedding.

Sweet Peaches was our go to store for new bedding for our boys. They offer high quality bedding that is affordable and with so many options to choose from you are sure to find something that you love for your child.

For my oldest son we picked up the Aviator bedding. It’s great for older boys as it’s not too little boyish, but it’s not too grown up either. It’s so soft and comfy and my son loves the set.

And for my other son we picked up the Wild West Bedding Collection. He loves it. It’s perfect for his age and since he loves to play cowboy this is perfect for him.

I am so impressed with how well made these bedding sets are. I’m glad that they will last my wild boys a long time. That’s always a bonus and of course they love their cool new bedding sets. They keep them extra warm and cozy on these chilly winter nights!

Whether you are looking to purchase new bedding for your child, re-decorate your child’s room, or just make them smile with a new bedding set, be sure to check out Sweet Peaches’s bedding for girls, babies, and teenagers. They have something for everyone. You will be sure to find something that fits your bill. www.sweetpeachesbedding.com

Free iPhone Apps for Kids

I just got a new iPhone and I downloaded quite a few apps on it for my children to use. They love them and are always asking to use mommies phone. And I thought that I would share a few of their favorite apps.

ABC Alphabet Phonics

This app has gotten several bad reviews on iTunes, but we have had no problems with it. My kids love it! It is a great way for them to get phonics practice in outside of doing school work.

Alphabet Tracing

This fun app allows your child to trace letters. It is a very cute app and children will love it.

Coloring

My children could spend hours playing this app if I let them. Of course I don’t, but they still love this coloring app.

Read and Share Bible Stories

My children love these little Bible stories. They are so cute and will easily entertain them.

Scrabble and Wordsearch

Older children will love these two games. They are not only educational, but they are such fun!

Good old games

And of course you can’t beat games like Hangman, Chess, and Checkers. My kids love the gold old games. Especially my boys.

What are your children’s favorite apps??

Crocs Dawson Boot Kids Shoes Review

Crocs Dawson Boot (Children's) - Bubblegum/Chocolate

Crocs Dawson Boot Kids Shoes


Got these for my son (15 months old) in a size 5, in black. He’s been wearing them inside and outside for weeks. I like them because he can’t take them off easily, they keep his feet warm and they appear to be very comfortable. He has a few pairs of shoes/boots that he won’t keep on his feet and he visibly complains about… “Off! Off!” he says to me and points at his feet. He never seems to have an issue with these boots though.

They are super freaking cute, look great with all his pants and are easy to put on with zippers on the inside. (No laces! Yay!) They are also lightweight and easy for him to walk in. I also like they they are supportive for his feet and ankles.

It’s officially Wintertime and even though it is easy to just dress warmly. But you can dress yourself and your children fashionably this winter thanks to our top picks from Kohl’s for the entire family.

This jacket from Kohl’s is an awesome jacket for dad. The fleece lining and detachable hood help protect him from the elements. Perfect for any activity. From sledding with the kids to a night out with you.

We all know that boys don’t care what they look like, but even your messiest boy will love this coat. It provides warmth, comfort, and the cool factor all in one. And mom will love that he can use this coat for Winter, Spring, and Fall.

For your little princess: Big Chill Faux Fur Coat

Would You Let Your Child Dye Their Hair?

January 15th, 2012 by Theresa Gould

Selena Gomez recently went for a dramatic transformation. While Justin was busy in Vegas, she dropped by her favorite salon in West Hollywood and added blue and purple extensions to her hair.

“Change is good,” Gomez tweeted on Wednesday, along with a pic of her brightly colored locks. “LOVE.”

I agree that change is good, but I’m not so sure that I would allow my child to die their hair. And while I realize that Selena used extensions, not everyone can afford them for their children. :)

One of my daughters went through a stage where she wanted to die her hair different colors. And I guess you could say I wasn’t too happy. I mean purple hair??? Thankfully she grew out of it within a few weeks and moved on to her next obsession….. nose piercings…. (But that’s a different story for a different day!)

However, if you are looking for a solution to fix your child’s obssesion with hair dye then check out Streekers. Streekers hair dye is removable and comes in eight fun colors that can be easily removed with water. It’s a great way to treat your child’s obsession and it’s affordable too! :)

My question is, would you let your child dye their hair? And why or why not?
