Shout Go Play Review

I do not enjoy doing laundry. I'm not sure there is anyone who does. The worst part of laundry are the stains. Between my two kids and dear hubby, the stains are endless. J is going to a new preschool this year that requires uniforms. They're an easy ensemble of navy or white embroidered polo shirts and navy or khaki pants/shorts. I think it should be a rule everywhere that young children should not wear white. J is only in school for 3 hours a day yet manages to ruin his clothes like he's been wearing them for a week straight. The first time I dressed him in a white polo shirt, he came home with green and blue markers streaks and dirt patches all over it. I can't just bleach it because the school's embroidered emblem is a different color.

Lucky me, I recently received a Shout Go Play pack from Growing Tree Toys, online retailer for learning toys and Shout. My review pack included Shout Triple Acting Spray, Shout Color Catcher Sheets and 52 Nature Activities Card Set.

I followed the instructions on the Shout Triple Acting Spray by spraying the stains, rubbing it in and letting it set for 10 mins before starting the wash. I was thrilled when the cycle was finished, the stains where completely gone.

Shout understands how important outdoor play is for children and has started a Go Play Initiative - which emphasizes the value of play for children. The 52 Nature Activities Card Set is a great item that helps promote play and imagination for children of all ages.

Shutterfly Holiday Cards

I. Love. Shutterfly.

I've been using Shutterfly for years to upload and share photos with friends and family all over the country. Over the last couple of years I've been using them for birthday invitations, photobooks, calendars and Christmas cards.

Shutterfly is great for storing literally thousands of my photos. The website is very user friendly. It's a piece of cake to upload and edit any picture (or several pictures) to any project. You can even have a webpage to continually add new photos to share with friends and family. There are hundreds of gifts ideas and designs to choose from for any member of the family. The photobooks have been a huge hit with the grandparents.

Shutterfly has a new line of holiday cards out now for Christmas, Hanukkah and even Thanksgiving. You can first choose if you want a folded, flat stationary or flat photo style card. There are hundreds of designs to choose from making it almost too hard to choose just one. A few of my favorites are

If you know me personally, you'll be receiving one of these cards this year, I'm just not telling you which one yet. I always make sure to keep 1 photo card for myself because it's so much fun to look back and see how the kids have grown and changed over the years.

It's your lucky day because right now Shutterfly is offering 20% off all holiday cards. Stop by Shutterfly and take a look at all the possibilities they have to offer.

Waterpik SinuSense Review

SinuSense™ from Waterpik® is putting water to work in a whole new way, Waterpik® is bringing a "breath of fresh air" to the sinus wash category with a completely new line of sinus wash products called SinuSense™. The Waterpik SinuSense™ line has a product for everyone, even kids, depending on their specific symptoms and needs. Just like washing your hands and brushing your teeth, sinus wash becomes part of your daily routine!

Squeeze Bottle- allows you to customize the amount of water flow for a complete cleanse, simply with an easy squeeze. The SoftSeal™ nozzle maximizes comfort and the One-Way FlowControl™ valve prevents backflow to maintain solution purity.

Neti Bottle- a unique approach to the traditional neti pot; its ergonomic shape, SoftSeal™ nozzle and One-Touch FlowControl™ valve make the Neti Bottle easy to hold, comfortable against your nose and creates a controlled gravity-fed water flow that provides a gentle sinus cleansing.

Even better, all SinuSense™ products are BPA free, dishwasher and microwave safe and safe for everyday use, even for children ages 4 and up. Now everyone in your family can breathe easier- and cleaner!

We received both the Squeeze Bottle and Neti Bottle to review. Between the pollen, dog hair and just everyday particles in the air, sometimes we get a little stuffed up. The SinuSense bottles were easy to use. The water flow wasn't uncomfortable and even J likes trying it himself...with our supervision of course. Each bottle came with soothing saline easy-pour packs to add to the water. We did notice we were breathing a little easier after each use.

Waterpik SinuSense can be used to reduce the risk of allergy and sinus symptoms
- Nasal and allergy dryness
- Sinus pressure and nasal stuffiness
- Nasal symptoms from flu and cold
- Nasal irritation from dust, fumes, animal dander, grass, pollen and smoke
- Post-nasal drip and congestion
