Super Wubble Bubble Ball Review @superwubble

My kids love to play with balloons. They could play for hours with them, but they usually always end up popping and then we have sad faces. I’ve always said I wished someone would make super durable balloons so they don’t pop when you play with them. Well, I have found something like that! Let me introduce you to Super Wubble bubble ball!

About Super Wubble Bubble Ball:

So what makes the Wubble bubble ball so special? It’s made from top-secret super-thermo-stretch-tacular stuff that makes it squishy, squashy, super soft and lightweight and allows it to be inflated to a gigantic THREE FEET TALL. Use the battery-operated air pump (included) to inflate your Wubble bubble ball in just two minutes and when you’re finished playing, just deflate the Wubble with the deflation tool (included) and stick it in a drawer for next time. The best part is that the Wubble is fun to play with indoors or outdoors, all year round.

We received the Super Wubble Bubble Ball in color red. They have 4 colors to choose from. Red, Blue, Green or Pink. The package includes: Instructions, Super Wubble ball, Patch kit, Pump, Petroleum Jelly and Nozzle. What it does not come with is 4 AA batteries for the pump. The instructions are very easy. We had the ball inflated within a minute. My kids were super excited to play with it! Make sure the desired size of your ball is less than 3 feet per instructions. We inflated ours to about 2 feet.

We took the ball outside for some playtime. The kids were loving throwing it to each other and rolling it on the grass. They even fell into it a couple of times (with me panicked it would pop haha) but it was perfectly fine! They even squeeze it, this thing can withstand a lot!

I even pinched it and squeezed it, really put it to the test of an adult playing with it. As much as I pinched and squeezed, the ball didn’t tear or pop.

Your kids will definitely have a blast with Super Wubble! It is durable and my kids have been having a full week of fun with it so far. They can play with it for hours and not get bored with it! This would make a great gift as well with the holidays coming up, even as a birthday present!

You can purchase your Super Wubble for $19.99 plus $8.99 shipping when you click here.

Super Wubble is also available at Target, Walmart and ToysRUs.

All Natural Relief With Zim’s Products Review and Giveaway

September 10, 2016 By Marijean

*This review was written by blog contributor Mariella Sajkowski

After three pregnancies, I often have lower back pain. Especially after a day of cleaning the house. I prefer not to take any medications besides an Ibuprofen every now and then. Luckily, I was recently contacted by Zim’s Max-Freeze to write a review on their products.

A little history on Zim’s

Zim’s® started over 60 years ago with the creation of Zim’s Crack Creme® by a pharmacist in Austintown, Ohio. Today, the Zim’s® brand has expanded to over 25 products ranging from lotions and cremes to pain relief gels and diabetic care items. The Zim’s Max-Freeze® brand provides an affordable topical pain relief gel that emphasizes the use of natural ingredients such as Ilex Flower and Aloe Vera.

Zim’s® continues to offer exceptional naturally-based products from a small town in Ohio. We look forward to expanding more in the future to provide you with products that utilize the power of natural ingredients to a make a difference in your life and those you love.

Zim’s Max-Freeze Patches

The Max-Freeze patches are a new product in the Max-Freeze line. They are topical patches that provide temporary pain relief with lidocaine and menthol. You simply remove the patch from the packaging, peel off the backing and place on skin. At first touch the sensation is cool. After about ten minutes, there’s a tingly mentholated feeling. In my opinion the pain relief is greater compared to its competitors on the market. Most importantly, I don’t have to rely on harmful drugs to ease my pain. The patches are available in sizes medium, large, and extra large. They’re $10.99 per package containing 6, 4, or 3 patches depending on size.

Zim’s Max-Crack Creme Creamy Daytime Formula

Zim’s CRACK Creme Creamy Daytime Formula is an herbal formula that softens and moisturizes dry, cracked skin. This product interested me the most since I have very dry skin year round.The lotion is creamy and not greasy. it has a slight cooling sensation which feels wonderful on your feet. $6.99 for 2.7 oz tube

Zim’s Advanced Acemannan Gel with Aloe Vera

This is another new product from Zim’s. Used as a protectant for minor cuts, scrapes, abrasions and burns. This product contains Acemannan, nature’s purest form of Aloe Vera. The gel is thick and cooling. My children like the way it seems to take the sting away from cuts. $9.99 for 3 oz tube.

Zim’s Crack Creme Crack Stick Lip Moisturizer

Zim’s Crack Creme Crack Stick Lip Moisturizer Vanilla Flavored is an herbal lip formula. Zim’s Crack Creme Crack Stick Lip Moisturizer Vanilla Flavored utilizes the power of Zim’s Crack Creme formula to moisturize the delicate skin on your lips. Zim’s Crack Creme Crack Stick Lip Moisturizer Vanilla Flavored soothes dry, cracked, chapped, wind burned lips. Zim’s Crack Creme Crack Stick Lip Moisturizer has a tasteful vanilla scent and is infused with Arnica, Aloe Vera, and Vitamin E. Zim’s Crack Creme Crack Stick Lip Moisturizer Vanilla Flavored is another Zim’s cold-weather essential. Condition your lips naturally before they get chapped with Zim’s Crack Creme Crack Stick Lip Moisturizer Vanilla Flavored.

Like I mentioned earlier, I struggle with dry skin year round. My lips are no different. Zim’s Crack Creme Crack Stick Lip Moisturizer seems to have a thicker formula than Chapstick. My favorite part: all the ingredients are completely natural!

Zim’s Crack Creme Herbal Lip Care with Sunscreen

Zim’s Crack Creme Lip Formula moisturizes cracked, chapped and wind burned lips. Use it all year for soft, smooth lips. Arnica & Aloe Vera with Cherry Flavor. This product is great because it moistures while keeping you safe from the sun. It’s especially useful for beach and ski trips.

Zim’s has an unique formula base of a combination of natural and scientific ingredients. They have an entire line of products including Lip Care, Pain Relief, First Aid, Diabetic and Adult Care. They also have gift sets that come packaged in a cute box of your choice.

Lularoe Clothing Review and Giveaway

September 6, 2016 By Anne

I have an addiction…. Lularoe. It started out with a maxi skirt. Then another and another. I bought two azures but never wore them. Then a Randy. Then more maxis. A cassie came next. I finally wore my azures and fell in love. More azures were bought. My next purchase was the classic t-shirt. More classic t’s. Another cassie. Somewhere in the midst of all this was the lola and the Nicole. More lolas. Another Randy. I may be forgetting some….oh yeah…leggings. Only solid black except the black with small white flowers. Lindsay was next.

Not to mention the hours of searching for more clothes on Facebook!

Half my closet is Lularoe. I should really just become a consultant. But I’m afraid I’d keep it all and not sell it.

Lularoe clothes are the most comfortable clothes I’ve ever worn. They flatter my body. I’ve jumped out of my comfort zone and worn prints I never would have worn before. I’m wearing skirts again. ( It’s been a long time.) They wash well. There are so many different prints and patterns.

I was asked to do a review for Channing Callahan. I picked out a light grey Lindsay. It’s super lightweight, almost see through. I love, love it. I wear it around the house as a jacket. I live in Florida and tanks tops are a necessity but sometimes that air conditioner comes on and it gets chilly. The Lindsay is prefect to put on.

A little about Channing Callahan, Lularoe Rep

I want to share some of my biggest dreams with you and I want you to know what truly makes me happy!

I love Lularoe clothes and I love the… happiness this company brings me. But in this picture I’m wearing my favorite outfit…a simple pair of medical scrubs. I’ve been a nurse for almost 2 years and putting on this uniform brings me true happiness! I’ve had 6 different jobs in that short amount of time, but love the friends I have made through taking care of people while they are sick.

Along with being a full time Lularoe consultant, I hope that one day I will be able to work on the cancer unit at Primary Children’s hospital. Serving and being around little ones truly makes my day.

I hope that through my journey as a consultant I can share the friendship, compassion, and happiness other consultants have brought me. I have met and interacted with so many of you. I love that!! Thank you for your support. Lularoe is so much more to me than just selling clothes ❤️

My hubby, Dakota is my #1 fan. He encouraged me to do Lularoe and it cracks me up when he asks if he can help me photograph new inventory or put together new packages. He gets just as excited about all the unicorn prints as I do and I love that he supports me in anything I choose to do.

Thanks for reading my little “all about me” rant. I hope that I can be more personal in this group and really show you who I am and share my take on Lularoe. Stay tuned for some fun giveaways this week!

Humble Bugs – Character Values Subscription Kits for Kids Review @thehumblebugs

September 6, 2016 By Marijean

I am always looking for new creative and fun ways to spend family nights with my family. Some examples of family nights in our home are: Movie night, Game night & Reading night (where we all will read books to each other). I was contacted by a subscription kit service called Humble Bugs to review this month’s kit.

CHARACTER VALUE SUBSCRIPTION KIT

Each Character Building Kit features a different character value that helps build stronger, happier kids and families. The Humble Bugs’ Character Building Kits include supplies, information, a classic movie, crafts, and lots more that the whole family can enjoy together. Subscribers receive a new Character Building Kit at their doorstep every other month!

My kids were very excited when our Humble Bugs Subscription Kit arrived. When we opened it we noticed the box was filled with so many activities. Receiving the box when we did was perfect timing, since a hurricane was passing through our neighborhood that day. We were very excited to unpack the box and check out everything!

The kit I reviewed included everything in the below picture:

This box is themed: Setting Goals, featuring Olympians. It includes 5 days worth of fun for families.

Day 1 for us was Building a fun medal craft for the kids. For the parents it was to read the review booklet BUILD TRUE and to fill out the Life Journal. My kids had a blast making their own medals. I even made one! You get 9 medals to create (3 gold 3 silver and 3 bronze), 2 tubes of glitter glue (gold and silver) and lots of sticker shapes. There was plenty for all of us.

Day 2 for us was Parents BUILD TRUE Discussion Guide and Object Lesson. Our object lesson was to help kids understand the importance of taking small steps to reach goals. We were provided with cotton balls. The goal was for each child to catch all 5 cotton balls at the same time, and ask questions. The kids had a blast with this activity and did learn that it takes time to reach goals and to have patience.

Day 3 for us was Kids BUILD UP Family Olympics and BUILD TRUE writing activity.Our object lesson was to make a suitcase to help carry our goals with us wherever we may go. The kids had a lot of fun with this craft!

Day 4 was a craft activity for the whole family. We made dream catchers! So much fun, my kids were so excited to make them.

Day 5 was Movie night and Character pin celebration. We watched a family movie that was included in our box called “Jumping For Joy.” My family really enjoyed this movie, and the kids learned about sacrifices and team effort. I then gave the kids their Character pins for achieving their goals!

The prices for subscription is as follows: $35 for a kit every other month (billed every other month) a 6 month subscription for $33 per kit (you save $6 and receive 3 kits) and an annual subscription for $30 per kit (receive 6 kits).

We absolutely loved this month’s character box. My kids are so excited and have asked to subscribe, so we are looking forward to the next box. Your family will surely love Humble Bugs! Click here to subscribe!

Bright Star Gifts Data Pets Review

September 5, 2016 By Marijean

If you own a computer/laptop you probably own a USB stick or a backup hard drive to keep your files, music and pictures saved and safe. Obviously a plain USB stick is nothing exciting to look at while you are working at your computer. I was recently contacted by Bright Star Gifts to review a really cool concept, a Data Pet! I am excited to tell you all about Data Pets.

Data Pets are the softest hard drives that you will ever own! All of our stuffed animals are made by top manufacturers who care about toy safety and quality. The storage devices that we use inside the animals are also from one of the top manufacturers of memory devices. They are hand assembled with great love and care to give you many years of use and enjoyment.

Features:
* Data Pets are safe for young children.
* Data Pets produce no heat.
* Data Pets are completely silent except for the normal sounds that animals make 😉
* Data Pets have no moving parts inside them.
* Data Pets are rugged and impervious to rough handling.
* Data Pets are reliable.
* Data Pets are USB 3.0 capable. This provides up to 10x faster data transfers than USB 2.0 devices.
* Data Pets plug into any USB port on any computer.
* Data Pets are powered from the computer. No additional power supply needed.
* Data Pets can be used for backing up your pictures, music, videos, etc.
* Data Pets can be used for additional storage.
* Money back guarantee.*
* 1 year warranty.**

My Review:

Bright Star Gifts offers a huge variety of different Data pets to pick from. They even have popular animal characters from movies such as The Secret Life Of Pets. I picked out a really cute Data Pet called Sally the Siamese Cat. She is 8″ and super soft and cuddly! The cord comes right out the back of the Data Pet and sits so nicely on my computer desk.

When you choose your Data Pet, you can choose the USB cable cord length. The choices are: 1 foot, 2 foot, 3 foot, 6 foot and 10 foot. I chose the 3 foot cable for myself since I was my cute friend sitting on top of my desk near the computer screen. A longer cord would offer flexibility to have your stuffed friend away from your screen and up on a shelf to display as an example. After you choose your cord length, you then choose your storage options. They offer 16 GB, 32 GB, 64 GB, 128 GB and 256 GB. The prices are all different depending on what size you pick. I was able to receive the 16 GB and the price for my Data Pet is $39.95. Your pet then will be shipped to your door with a cute birth certificate you can fill out, and an included sheet which tells you about the Warranty, Guarantee and Cleaning of your pet. When you receive your pet, just plug the cord into your USB slot and you are done! What I really like about this Data Pet is that it does not get warm or hot to the touch. My 5 year old loves playing with it when I have it plugged in. You will be able to see a little icon on the computer screen that looks exactly like your data pet! It works perfectly and I am very happy with it.

Data Pets would be perfect for college kids! Let them pick out their favorite stuffed friend and it will look great on their desk.

Data Pets would also make great gifts for the upcoming holiday season. If you think about it, mostly everyone you know I am sure owns a computer or laptop I am sure. This pet would be perfect for your friends/family!

*100% guarantee: If you don’t like your Data Pet for any reason, please contact us within 5 days of receiving it for return shipping instructions. Once we receive it, and it’s still in ‘like new’ condition, we’ll refund your money for the Data Pet. Shipping costs are excluded.

**Warranty: Within one year of shipment, we warranty the electronics within the Data Pet to be free of manufacturing defects of any kind. If the Data Pet fails to perform as advertised, we will either repair or replace it at our discretion.
