Eco at Heart Stainless Steal Straws Review

I have never use stainless steal Straw before, but I have to say...they are my new FAVORITE straws to use! Here's why they have become my go to straw.

*They are environmentally friendly, which is awesome and everyone should try to save where they can to protect our earth.

*They keep your drink cold! When I take a sip through the straw the chill goes all the way up the straw that each sip I take is cold and refreshing.

*They are so easy to clean with the handy little brush that come with them that you never get frustrated with their cleaning routine!

These straw are great for anyone who is looking to be GREEN, they are also very cool looking! They have some ridges on them so that you know which side is the top, and they have the ECO Heart Logo on them as well! I really love theses straws and I could go on and on about How I use them everyday now, but I wouldn't want to ramble too much :)

Turtle Invaders app Review

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Zyrobotics, LLC for IZEA. All opinions are 100% mine.

If your a mother in this digital age you are like me and have to find interesting games for your little ones. Most of the time you want to make sure that they are engaging and helping in their learning abilities.

Well let me tell you, this is a great app for just that! and guess what....Its Free!

You will look for "Turtle Invaders" on either your Goggle App Store or your I tunes.

Then simply click install.

Then click Accept, don't worry its totally free.

Then you can open the app and TADA you are now ready to let your little one play turtle invaders!

Just click on PLAY!

You can also click on Options so that you can adjust any kind of setting you might need to.

Once you click on Play the next screen you see will allow you to choose which difficulty you want your little one to start with. I suggest starting with begginer so that they can get used to the game itself.

So the point of the game is that some evil turtles are attacking Aqua World, and its up to you to save it. You do this by squirting the turtles with octopus ink!

A little more information from the Company

We've just released a new app for younger children and children with special needs (released on both iTunes and Google Play). No ads and no in-app purchases! Turtle Invaders is a fun and engaging game for children that features a unique approach to help improve motor skills. In Turtle Invaders, the turtles have decided to take over the underwater Aqua world. The fearless Octoremus has decided to fight back!!

What makes it special:

We have designed this novel cause-and-effect app based on lessons-learned from engaging

children in robotics. Turtle Invaders is designed to enhance motor skills for young children and kids with motor or cognitive delays. With a phenomenal ability to set options, this app will keep kids motivated and engaged. The app is designed to improve visual attention, timing, coordination and control. Parents can also use this switch-accessible app to reinforce Individualized Education Program (IEP) goals or just to have fun with their

I think that the only problem my daughter had was this app was getting the turtles, and that's only because she love turtles (they are her favorite animal) so it was a little tough at first. But as she continued playing she really started to enjoy it! Then she challenged ME! She said she could do better than me! It was a really fun time and great way to interact with my child in a digital world.

Turtle Invaders can be downloaded from:

Baltic Amber Necklace by Good Karma Zone Review

I have used Baltic amber necklaces with my other child, and I love them! So when I was given the opportunity to to review another one for Mikey! :)

A little bit about Amber Necklaces....

These necklaces are one of the oldest natural healing remedies. Baltic amber teething necklaces have been a traditional European remedy for teething discomfort for hundreds of years but all ages can benefit from its renowned healing properties. Necklace length are commonly available ranging from 10- 13 inches, and are made with string designed to stretch with pressure and break if necessary. Each piece of amber is individually double-knotted in the strand and come in a variety of dark and light colors.

Baltic amber is not a stone, but a fossilized tree resin. Each bead is a unique piece of history - a fossil from an ancient forest which existed tens of millions of years ago.

Baltic Amber has been used for pain relief, strengthening the body's immune system, restoring energy, and helping to break the cycle of chronic inflammation.

Directions for use: Wear your baltic amber teething necklace next to the skin, under clothing and close to the pain source, if possible. For adults, we recommend wearing the necklace overnight. Remove the jewelry at bath time or when in the pool. Avoid detergents and cleansers; they leave residue that inhibits ambers healing properties.

Warning: Necklaces contain small parts. Children must be supervised while wearing jewelry. Remove jewelry while the child sleeps.

So try out your own necklace by ordering HERE!
