Babys Only Organic (Natures One) Pedia Smart Organic Chocolate for Kids

PediaSmart Organic DAIRY Chocolate Complete Nutrition Beverage Powder, 12.7 OunceMy boys just love it! I totally approved, this is the only milk they want and love. I do not mind spending because they are so worth it, there are no $ amount for their health, plus this is actually cheaper than PediaSure and without the junk.

ALL ORGANIC, and no GMO? I think I'm in heaven. This stuff is awesome. It tastes way better than the poisonous, toxic, artificial ingredient, gmo loaded pediasure. Even though this stuff is for my daughter, I myself steal some from her and drink it because it tastes like a delicious chocolate milk drink.

I highly recommend you mix this with milk for a much more delicious and creamier drink. Sometimes I make this for myself and add some chocolate protein powder, raw cocoa powder, milk and some stevia extract to sweeten the raw cocoa powder... talk about super nutritious and delicious!

NOTE: You really want to mix this in a 'shaker bottle' since mixing it with a spoon doesn't work well.

This is also cheaper than pediasure, which is almost hard to believe, considering the quality of this is FAR FAR superior to that pediasure junk.

I was really excited about using this instead of PediaSure. First you should know that it only yields 7 servings. My daughter says "It tastes like Play-doh." And now she refuses to drink it...I'll keep trying different ways to sneak it in, but mixing with milk and hershey's syrup didn't work...not sure anything will...

I bought this for my 3 year old because it's organic and she is a picky eater. She loves chocolate milk, but hates this. All in all I think it's a good product...but not for my kid.

I was really disappointed that neither of my children liked this. The younger one made a face, and the older one said, "Yuck!". This is so much healthier for children than Pedia Sure and other brands available in most stores. I'm still giving this a 4 star even though they didn't like it, because the ingredient list is so superior, that I prefer this brand over the others.

The First Years 6 Pack Ziploc Snack Cups, 4.5 Ounce

The First Years 6 Pack Ziploc Snack Cups, 4.5 OunceTHe size of the container worked for my lunch packing purposes, but the grooves on the lids did not match the grooves on the containers making it very difficult to screw on and off the lids. I bought the large and small versions of this container and had lid trouble with each. Kind of a cheap product.

I like these 'cups'! Despite the bad reviews the price was right and I figured if I had problems with the lids I'll deal with it! They work well!! I washed them in the dishwasher on the top rack, they where not deformed. I have not had any issues with the lids. I use them to store small portions of food for my 8 month old twins. I open them frequently throughout the day. I have even placed them in the freezer. They work so well I would buy more!

I love that the lid stays on in the kids lunch boxes & they know how to close after lunch too. They keep all the food where it needs to be.

The size of these cups is perfect for sending homemade food to daycare with my baby. I freeze the baby food in ice-cube sized trays, and two ice-cube size portions (2oz) easily fit into each cup, making it very convenient to pack the night before. I've had no trouble with the lids so far. Love the colors, and love that they are microwave safe.

These are pretty handy when you're making your own baby food. We use the Tovolo Perfect Cube Ice Tray, Set of 2, Dark Blue and the food cubes fit when you want to throw them in the container while still frozen. Other baby food storage options weren't quite tall enough to hold the 1 oz cube unless you thawed them out. Only thing is the lids can be tough to get on/off.

J.L. Childress 6 Bottle Cooler Tote Bag, Green/Orange

J.L. Childress 6 Bottle Cooler Tote Bag, Green/OrangeThis bag comes in handy when taking bottles back and forth to daycare. I would definitely recommend this product. I also like the storage on top of the bag.

Great cooler for daycare and great price. My only critique is that I wish the manufacturer would have attached the strap to the main part of the cooler and not the lid. If not fully zipped, it hangs funny. But, still great and works for what we needed it for.

I bought this to keep breast milk cool during the work day. It works great for that purpose. I like the top compartment too; it fits a sandwich or a couple snacks for me. I can usually throw in an apple or something in the big compartment with the bottles and ice pack. Just for size comparison, I am able to fit four 8-oz Medela bottles and the ice pack that came with my Pump In Style Advanced Pump (it's contoured to fit with baby bottles), then a large apple or something on top of that in the bottom. Seems well-made, but the color is a little loud. For functionality (I don't have to bring a separate lunch bag for myself), I'll take it!

I was very excited to order this bag. I use the new Similac bottles that have a wider base and have had a very difficult time finding a bag that will hold more then 2 bottles in it. When I saw this bag I thought that it would be perfect and having a top section for solid food was a big plus! I received the bag and was upset to find a big hole in the liner. I contacted Amazon who sent me a new bag that arrived just 2 days later. I was very impressed by that, however, I was quickly disappointed again when I opened the new bag and found a hole in the liner again. I saw this same bag comes in different colors and the price amount varies based on the color which I though was strange. I looked at the one in black offered by Amazon which had 50+ reviews and not one said the liners were damaged. Not quite sure why only the green one would be defective, but it sure seems that way. I will be trying the black bag and really hope that it comes without any holes so I can finally use a bag that is more suited to my needs.

A little tight when using glass baby bottles but it's working, although I did not get a chance to test how good the cooling is when warm since it's still in the 50's around here.

Baby Chef 3 Pack Freshness Minders

Baby Chef 3 Pack Freshness MindersI am a mom of 4 kids and sometimes, I can't keep up with things that needs to be done so I need a timer for reminders. But here's a couple of ideas on how am using Freshminder. My kids need a timer to do their chores sometime after school when their homework gets done. I give one to each kid and I set it for lets say, two hours. Then, it counts down to 2 hrs. and when 2 hours is over, it's time to do their chores. I don't hv to stress on things not getting done and hv to give my kids constant reminders to do their chores...Now, here's how it's useful for me. I am on meds for a wk and I need to take my 1st medication 3 times a day and the 2nd meds, twice a day. I wrap the timers on the meds so I when it's time for me to take it, I know which one to take at the time and reset it to continue for the next few hours am due for it... so I don't miss a dose! This only counts down by hours, not by minutes. It's still useful for me, though.

I left for a few hours and put these on the bottles of breast milk before I left. It was great because then he didn't have to keep track of how long they were good for.

These are super easy to use. There are two buttons. I didn't even need to read the directions to figure it out. Simple simple.

Green Sprouts Warming Plate

green sprouts Warming Plate, SageJust as a rebuttal to other reviews: the plate does stick well to the surface, but you have to flip the suction ring first, so that the wide side sits on the table surface. For some reason it arrives with the detachable ring attached upside down (perhaps for easier packing?). Otherwise it looks cute and holds heat well.

Within 5 seconds of placing this plate in front of my 1 y.o., she detached it from her highchair tray, even though I moistened the suction per instructions. Another problem with it is that the suction portion is not attached to the plate, so it can also be easily removed. The warming feature is nice, but can not fully drain heating water through small fill hole and worry that mold may grow inside.

After 37 years we have a baby in the family again. Needless to say I began looking for items that are familiar from the past (whatever happened to TV booties, by the way??), and among those was a warming plate. I was delighted to discover this Green Sprouts plate, and my granddaughter is happy with food that stays warm to the end.

I use distilled water to fill the reservoir to avoid mineral deposits, and find this dish easy to clean and drain.

I had not seen one of these warming dishes in years so I had to get it. It is so convenient for warming up baby food that has been refrigerated. I don't put baby food in the microwave since the portions are so tiny and burn so easily. Just put hot water from the tap in the bottom of the plate then put baby food in the sections on top and in a couple of minutes baby food is warm and ready to eat. The cap seals tight. I have never had any leaks of hot water. I love this plate and may get another one!

Hi

I am a grandmother and I watch two of my grandchildren daily.

I had a warming dish for my 13 year old grand-daughter and also for my own five children. So when I started watching my newest grandchild I wanted this dish for her food.

I looked everywhere. None of the local stores had what I wanted. Most had no idea what I was looking for. Finally... I went to my AMAZON and of course there it was.

Thank you for selling products that I and many others have used for more than 50 years. I will always check Amazon first from now on.

Thanks again

HABA Spielstabil Nesting Stacker

HABA Spielstabil Nesting StackerMy 8-month old LOVES this toy! The buckets stack both inside each other and on top of one another. Some of them have holes so the water/sand trickle through. I didn't think too much of it until I saw how my child uses this toy in the bathtub he is exploring the idea of volume and relative size. As a bath toy it can't be beat doesn't retain water and stink like rubber duckies. They come in handy when rinsing him off too. Who would have thought a simple collection of buckets would be so much fun!

UPDATE

At 16 months, my boy still plays with these every time he takes a bath. I have added other toys to his bath repertoire, but he prefers the stacking buckets. He now knows how to stack them and continues to do so repeatedly. It's also funny to see him trying to grab the water that trickles down from the buckets with holes...he still hasn't figured out that water is not solid....

I am an extremely picky mom when it comes to the toys I buy for my son! I love the Plan toys and other educational toys that don't have a lot if bells and whistles. I looked for a long time for a high quality stacking cup toy and finally stumbled upon this German set. Other plastic stackers are likely to contain BPA, but these do not (I went to their website and checked!). They are thick and durable, and work well both for nesting and stacking play (when turned upside down). I am shocked more people haven't found these cups, and it's a shame they show up so low down on the page when you search for stacking toys!

Buy HABA Spielstabil Nesting Stacker Now

And a nice added bonus to these stacking cups is that you can still build a sturdy tower if you have a cup or two MIA about the house (say, when one cup is still hanging out near the bathtub from last night's water play, etc.) These cups are so ingeniously designed that the fifth cup fits nicely inside the rim of the third cup-which is also great when your little one isn't yet interested in building every tower by size order. It's just a great toy!

I have been in the Early Childhood Education field for over 15 years so I have seen my fair share of nesting cups. The quality and durability of these far exceed any that I have used before for work. I got these for my son when he was 6 months old and he has been using them daily for a month now. A great pick!

Want HABA Spielstabil Nesting Stacker Discount?

It's so rare these days to find a baby toy that is the result of careful thought and planning. The cups are very good quality, bright colors, and stack different ways because their proportions are so well planned. They nest, they stack in two separate ways, and some even have drainage holes to be used at the pool/in the tub! The holes are nice, too, when my son inserts a cup inside another upside down since they fit so well together, this prevents suction from sticking them that way permanently! He loves these cups at 10 months old and I foresee many years of imaginative play to come.

EZ Squeezees Refillable Food Pouches, 9 Pack

EZ Squeezees Refillable Food Pouches, 9 PackI got these for packed lunches (applesauce & yogurt), but I think they'll also be handy for baby food when my littlest is ready. I love that you open the long side to fill & the pouch stands up on its own...making refilling a snap. They clean nicely in the dishwasher (although I have to leave them on a bottle drying rack to finish drying all the way so they don't get mildew-y). The cap is snug, but easy enough to turn that both my 3 & 5 year olds can do them on their own. I only wish that the cap had some sort of "leash" on it. I predict that as I use these more & they go to school lunches, I'm going to lose caps which will make them useless. Otherwise, these are great!

This company offers EZ Squeezees for kids and adults. Also BPA free, and refillable as well. You can also throw them in the dishwasher when done, and handles it just fine. There is a giant side pocket with a sealed line, which helps with adding and cleaning. My worry was with my 3-year-old whom loves to squeeze things far more than they should be squeezed, and would have made a mess. They handled it pretty well, I even took a hard squeeze at one from the side and from the bottom and it handled it perfectly. These are great for filling up with smoothies, applesauce, veggie drinks and so on.. The top hole isn't that big so you won't be able to get huge chunks out of it. Really digging the refill part since they are so hard to come by and so expensive. These per pack are a pretty great price and I used mine far over 50 times and they still are in one piece. These make great snacks for on the go, or if you are in the hospital a lot. They are easy to screw and unscrew it. I did notice the cap they unscrew off the top isn't that big which could be a choking hazard if you don't watch them while they take the cap off. Also with kids and how well they lose things, I would take the cap from them so you don't lose them and need to buy more. These are great for anyone who loves liquid drinks or food. The material used for these pouches are strong and very sturdy, they can handle great amount of touching and squeezing!

The First Years- Disney Princess - 5 Piece Feeding Set- Plate , Bowl, Cutlery Set and Sippy Cup.What little princess would not be delighted with this set. Gave it to my 18 month old granddaughter for Christmas and she already is addicted to the princess thing. It is the only plate that she will eat off of. Packaging was good also.

What an adorable set for my 2 year old. The silverware is a bit small, but she still uses them ok. The cup drinking hole needs to be made a bit bigger for an older toddler. Pretty princesses on there.

Naturepedic No Compromise Organic Cotton Classic 150 Seamless Dual Firmness Crib Mattress

Naturepedic No Compromise Organic Cotton Classic 150 Seamless Dual Firmness Crib MattressI purchased this mattress for my son three months ago when he transitioned from a bassinet to a crib, and he is seven and a half months old now. My significant other had a daughter in his previous marriage who died of SIDS when she was 7 months old, and you can bet that I read all the research and looked at lots (and I mean LOTS) of crib mattresses before making the decision to buy this one.

The first thing I noticed about this mattress when I opened it....no chemical-y smell. You can tell that the mattress is extremely well-made and will last for a long, long time. I wanted the dual firmness mattress so that my son can use it as a toddler bed when he is older. The firm side is labeled, so you know which side is which.

In the three months we've had this mattress, my son has not had any problems with getting a peaceful and good night's sleep on it. I would highly recommend this mattress to new moms and/or anyone who is concerned about SIDS or the chemicals in non-organic mattresses.

I wanted a natural mattress that wouldn't offgass harmful toxins and was happy to find this one at such a great value. I had come across 100% latex and other natural crib mattress options that were natural like I wanted, but 3-5 times the cost of this one. It has a firm infant side and a softer toddler side to grow with your child. The mattress is waterproof and very easy to wipe down when needed. The only downside is that my child sweats if the crib sheet is too thin and it is hot out, so if you live in a warm area or don't have a/c this might be an issue. Overall, this is a great product and will last for years to come.

This mattress is great! It is of high quality and I love that it is free of the usual toxic stuff that mattresses are commonly made of. The dual firmness is a great feature as well. Definitely reccommend for discerning parents!

After doing a lot of research for an organic mattress, we settled on this mattress. We were glad we did. When you think about how long a child is sleeping on a mattess, why wouldn't you want them to be on the safest product available. It is a pricer product, but for our peace of mind and for our son's health, we didn't even hesitate at the cost. This mattress had absolutely no chemical smell. We felt extremely comfortable having our newborn son sleeping on this mattress right away. He has been sleeping on it for about five months now and he seems very comfortable on it. It is waterproof, so on the few occasions that his diaper has leaked, we never had to worry about the mattress. There is also no sound from the mattress, which I know some people complain about with waterproof mattresses. Since it is waterproof we just have a sheet overtop the mattress and this seems very adequate. Since the mattress has a firm and softer side, it's great to know that we will be using it for many years to come.

Very expensive but worth it for the peace of mind. No fumes or oders given off. Seems to be firm and evenly filled.
