BioGaia Probiotics Review and Giveaway!

I don't know about yours, but my kids are pitiful when they have stomach problems! I have found the greatest thing! And I wish I knew about this when my boys were babies. They both had acid reflux. My oldest had it the worst, and I wish about BioGaia probiotics when they were babies!


They have 3 great products. Drops that can be added to any drink, a chew-able pill (that my kids actually didn't mind taking! Bonus!), and a straw that has probiotics in it. I even liked the straws and they really help when you are having a bad stomach day! 

Safe and convenient, the three forms of probiotics have health promoting benefits for the digestive and immune systems.  The drops, shown to significantly reduce symptoms of colic, are ideal for infants and toddlers because they can be added to a liquid like juice or water. The chewable tablets or straws work well for older children and are effective in preventing common tummy upsets and all three forms support overall gut health.  


And I have great news. Thanks to MomSelect and BioGaia I would like to offer you your choice of a 5mL bottle of drops, or a 30-count chewable tablet packet or a 30-count pack of straws! Just visit the BioGaia site and have a look around. Then come and let me know which product you would choose for your little ones tummy problems! I will end comments on Wed. April 14 at midnight and announce a winner on Thursday morning! 


*I was given the products to review and test on my children from MomSelect and BioGaia and a product will be provided for the winner of the giveaway.

Who doesn't love freebies!

So, I don't know about you, but who has time or money to go to the movies?  Taking our Party of Five to the movies can get quite expensive! And who has the time it takes to load up the kids and go to rent a movie. If your family is any thing like mine, we have 4 people wanting something different! That is why I love Blockbuster Express Movie Kiosks! And thanks to the great folks at Mom Select I have a code for you to rent one, get one rental free!

Just use code 55G13B to get a free movie when you rent one for just $1 a day! But hurry, the code is only good until 3/31/10!

You can even go online to reserve the movies you want to see.  Then just pick them up at your convenience! 

Just rent your movies, get one for the kids and one for the adults after the kids have gone to bed, and make it a date night in!

Cereal anyone??

We love cold cereal at our house. It is a great option for breakfast. And for dinner sometimes. In fact, I sometimes eat a bowl at night for my snack. My kids love dry cereal as a snack.



Thanks to MyBlogSpark and General Mills, we were given the opportunity to try a few boxes of General Mills.  My coupons came and I have been very anxious to use them.  The first box that I bought was Cheerios.  I love Cheerios and my daughter loves to eat them as a snack while Mama is cooking dinner.

I am looking forward to getting more General Mills cereals for our family to enjoy! We love all Chex and Kix!

For more information about kids and cereals, please visit Cereal Health and Wellness.


You too can enjoy some General Mills cereal and here is a coupon for to save some money on a box!

Zhu Zhu Pets

What a great review and giveaway! This time my kids were very excited when the Fed-Ex truck pulled up and placed a LARGE box on the steps! Thanks to MomSelect and Zhu-Zhu Pets we are now the proud owners of "Chi Chi" and his house and tons of accessories!

The first thing I noticed about this cute little hamster was the little sounds that he makes. I also love the fact that there is no messy clean up for this little guy! We received Chi Chi, (named by my son), an excerise room and wheel, a surfboard and sleeping dome, and skate board and turn around, a car a garage, and a slide with a ramp, and an excersise ball! It took me a while to put together, maybe 30 minutes, but once it was set up, the fun began!

The hamster runs along the house and does not do the same routine each time. He really acts like a real hamster. The house has a bedroom and a bathroom. He makes a noise like he is jumping on the bed in the bedroom and whistling at himself in the bathroom mirror. So cute! My son's favorite part is the car! They loved letting Chi Chi drive it all over the kitchen!

The only problem that I have is that I don't have enough room in my house to keep all the pieces out at one time. I wish I did because every time the kids want to play I have to put it back together again. The good thing is it is much easier to put back together since all the pieces are already on, you just pop them together!

Okay, so would you like a chance to win your very own hamster? I have one hamster and a slide with a ramp to give away! This would be a great item to add to a Christmas List! To win just leave me a comment as to why you would like to win! It's that simple! I will pick a winner on September the 9th at midnight! Good Luck!
