Spiderman Spidersense Melamine Tablesetting ~ Plate, Bowl, Yellow Cup
I bought this set for my 3 year old, and he absolutely loves it. It's made of sturdy stuff and can handle being knocked around a bit. It's been hand washed or several weeks now and has not faded-not sure how it stands up to a dishwasher, but for us, the colors have held fast. Four stars because it's rather pricey for just a 3-piece set, but otherwise, a very good purchase.
Tommee Tippee BPA Free Stage 2 Chewther - 4M Green
Gave this to our son when he was 4 months and starting to teeth. He didn't care for it too much. I think it was too big for him at the time. We tried about a month later and then he loved it. It was the perfect size now. It's great when his pacifier is just not enough. The only thing that could make this better were if you could attach a pacifier clip. When my son is done with it, he tends to throw it over his highchair and onto the floor. Otherwise this is great!

A friend of mine had one of these for her son and he loved it. She then got one for me, and after I fell in love with it I bought one for another friend who was expecting. The TT chewther is definitely making its rounds among my circle of friends. My son has not taken a bottle or a pacifier since day one and he began teething around 2 months. When he started teething, we discovered that he just did not like teething rings at all. The doughnut shape of teething rings just seemed awkward while he was so little. This chewther was a life saver. Even when he was tiny, he would put one whole side in his mouth and he could sit for twenty minutes just going to town chewing on it. The shape makes it easy for him to hold onto and it keeps me from worrying that any parts will go too far into his mouth. I never worried about leaving him unattended with it. Very handy little product! He's still getting more teeth and we still carry this with us!Read Best Reviews of Tommee Tippee BPA Free Stage 2 Chewther - 4M Green Here
I like all 4 of the Tommee Tippee Chewthers. My son likes to chew on them, not just when he is teething, but any time. They aren't his favorite thing by any means and they don't keep him entertained for long, but they are just nice for a little extra something for him to chew on now and again.Want Tommee Tippee BPA Free Stage 2 Chewther - 4M Green Discount?

The First Years 6 Pack Take & Toss Bowls with Lids, 8 Ounce, Colors May Vary
We've had these for 4 years from when we started sending homemade purees to daycare for our oldest and we love them. I'm here to replace some that have gotten lost, but we never "toss" them. They seal well, go in the freezer and dishwasher for years and hold up just as when they are new. They stack really compactly. We make a weeks worth of food (purees for the baby, mac and cheese, veggies, soup, etc. for the big kid) and freeze lunch size portions in these in the freezer. If we have a bunch I'll pop them into a ziplock and pop them back in when making lunch the night before, but if they are full, I'll just keep them stacked in the freezer and transfer them to the lunch box. After 4 years we have a couple (out of 18 we originally bought 4 years ago) lids that have cracked at the very edge. They still seal well enough for solid foods (apple slices for instance), but we don't trust those with our liquids (like soup). The 4 year old ones without visible cracking still do fine for soups. BPA-free too!
Buy The First Years 6 Pack Take & Toss Bowls with Lids, 8 Ounce, Colors May Vary Now
I've been using these bowls for my one year old and they are great. I use them for snacks, for taking her food to daycare, and for her leftovers. Dishwasher safe and microwave safe. I got boy colors the first time and girl colors the second time. It doesn't make much of a difference to me, although I understand that some folks may not like the surprise. The daycare loved these bowls so much, they have suggested them to all the other parents.We got these to hold our daughter's treats when we decided we were going through too many plastic ziploc bags. They were much better than a plastic sandwich bag in terms of durability and life cycle. However, we still found that we ran into the same problem of the snacks being knocked out (or dumped out) when out and about. For taking snacks on the go, we found that the Munchkin Two Snack Catchers, Colors May Vary worked better for our needs, especially when it comes to preventing spills. The downside to those is that they aren't air-tight so the food can go stale.So, you really have to determine what you are buying this for. If you are getting it to prevent spills, there are a lot better options out there. If you are simply looking to replace ziploc bags with something more durable and eco-friendly that will still keep the snacks from going stale, then this is a great product.

These dishes work great and are really durable through the dishwasher and long term use. Have noticed that little crumbs from cereal, etc leak out into our bag, which is frustrating. I also would have loved to have been able to pick the colors, but ended up with some girly ones :)
Happy Baby Organic Baby Food 1 Starting Solids, 3.5 Ounce (Pack of 16)
I switched to Happy Baby after learning that Earth's Best and Gerber have bpa in their baby food lids. These pouches are bpa free. My daughter loves them. I usually mix the mango in with oatmeal to sweeten the oatmeal naturally. My daughter doesn't like to eat oatmeal plain. I usually use one package over two or three days this way. They are also great on the run. I can throw a couple pouches in the diaper bag and take it out when needed. She has eaten pouches on the subway, park benches, buses, etc. She just sucks them up with no mess.
Some things you should know about Happy Baby:
Organic ingredients
BPA-free packaging
Many Vegan choices
Gluten free snacks
Stage 1 and Stage 2 Pouches are Kosher
No GMO's
Allergy conscious (no soy, gluten, dairy, or added sugar, and processed in a nut free facility)

My daughter and I are gluten and dairy free. We are always on the look out for easy snacks with no refridgeration needed. These were terrible.

I know why--these things taste GREAT!I love the screw top pouches--all I do is grab a spoon, and squeeze a mouthful size amount into the spoon and feed it to my son. I don't need a bowl to keep the product clean from baby spit.
If anything, when he's done eating (if he doesn't eat the whole thing) all we're left with is one spoonful of food that is wasted.

My baby loves the mango baby food. I make most of his food, but I can't find organic mangoes around here, so I was happy to find it available to buy. I bought a ton of it when it was on sale, and even if he outgrows baby food, the adults of the family will use the mango baby food in smoothies!! Delish!

Make My Day Insulated Baby Bottle Warmer
I bought this before going on a trip thinking it would be handy to heat up bottles. I was so wrong! The pouch has to be boiled after EACH time you use it, so it's only good for one time. Since we were going on a cruise and couldn't boil the thing, it was left at home. Can't even comment on how well it works, it's still in its box! Just read the instructions and I was so disappointed. It also has to be put in something when you boil it, otherwise it will get damaged.Update: I have actually used the product a few times now. It will warm a baby food jar or a milk bottle in about 15 minutes, but it's still a hassle to boil it again afterwards. The worse is that it can easily be triggered just handling it, I find that so frustrating I'm about to throw it in the thrash!
The downside (and hence the 3 star rating) is that it is fabric / neoprene (without a plastic liner) so milk and such seeps into the fabric and there are no instructions for keeping it clean. After some handwashing I am about to try throwing it in the washing machine to see how it goes because I cant get it quite as clean as I would like.
I should say I did only buy this for the cooling function which works very well; So I want to be clear the 3 star is not rating the warming function with this review if I was, it would be a one star review. The reason for this is that I did try warming one ounce of breastmilk ONCE and while my baby is quite patient this just took too long; which is why I never even realized when I had bent the stick the right way to activate the reaction (its difficult to tell when you have bent it right as the other reviewer already mentioned). In addition, the pack contents solidified as part of the heating process so was a little awkward to boil for reuse I ended up using one of the largest pots in the kitchen not particularly environmentally or user friendly, since it took me a long time to get the water to boil and another 10minutes or more to liquify the pack contents.
Overall, not a bad cooler/insulated pouch for the money but the heating function needs to be refined in my view to make this a viable option on the go for those who really need a warm bottle fast.
New add on
--------------
Pouch washes well in the Washing machine (2 washes so far) on cold delicate cycle.
Watch out not to put the cooling pack in the freezer my husband did, thinking it was one of those cooling packs and now the pack has had to go into the bin its solid even when at room temperature our fault I know, but still annoying and most likely not great for the environment.

We got this warmer for breast milk while out and about. It appeared to be exactly what we wanted. Once the pouch starts heating it does work (in ~20 minutes). The issue I have with it is that getting the reaction to start takes luck. I bend the stick slowly, I bend it far, I bend it fast. Sometimes one thing will work and other times none will work and I just have to keep trying. That is my only complaint!Save 18% Off
The Devyn Bag
I'm a recent stay-at-home mom with two kids, and I'm SO happy to finally have one bag that meets all of my needs. For me, this bag functions as a diaper bag + cooler + laptop bag. I use this bag EVERY day (and I love it so much, I've purchased it as a gift for two other moms-to-be!) I really like that it has 3 different compartments designed to meet different functions. I use the insulated cooler compartment every day (since I never go anywhere with my kids without snacks and drinks!) I was skeptical of the ice packs at first, but discovered on Day 1 that they work great and keep everything ooober cool. I also like the protective laptop compartment. It's been nice to have my laptop with me on longer excursions (I use it to entertain my 4 year old on plane trips) or when I have both kids at an organized activity and actually have a few minutes to myself to catch up on emails. Also, I've used the laptop compartment as extra storage for other items on days I do not want/need my laptop with me. I use the outer compartment for diapers and wipes, and I use the pockets within that compartment for my purse items. The shoulder strap is adjustable and very comfortable every way I've worn it. I wasn't sure I'd like the velcro closure on the outer flap, but have discovered it fastens very securely AND serves 2 critical functions for me. First, it provides quick and easy access to the inner compartments (since I can get into the bag with just one hand, I can easily grab the extra binkie for the crying baby or sippy cup for the parched preschooler without needing to pull the car over to free both hands.) Second, I found that the velcro flap allows variability in the bag's "stuffing capacity". The bag's fabric and manufacture appear very high quality and durable and so far, have held up fabulously to the daily wear and tear I put the bag through. Oh and how could I forget?! My very favorite part of this bag is the small outer pocket on the side. Since this pocket is the ultimate in "easy access" I use this for my phone and keys. I definitely recommend this bag for any mom who ever leaves the house with her kiddos Totally worth the money to have a durable (and stylish) bag that meets so many different functions.
Earth's Best Organic 2nd, 4 Ounce Jars (Pack of 12)
Both our twins love this one right from the start but it's not loaded with lentils (see ingredients below). We introduced it when they were 7 months old and now they're 10 months. I'm glad they are eating something green because we couldn't get them to eat the one with peas when we tried at 7 months, but we got them to eat the peas later at 9 months.Their favorite vegetable is sweet potato and we've also tried sweet potato with cinnamon. They love all the fruit varieties.
I'm glad they love this one because lentils and brown rice form a complete protein, although a view of the ingredients shows that lentils is not one of the prime ingredients.
This one also has carrots and I've heard all babies like carrots. I don't know if they would like it without the carrots. I haven't seen this one lentils and brown rice in our local stores, so I'm glad to get it here. Along with some others, we get this one with the subscription. Of course, with twins one is forced to buy more in bulk and we're so busy that it's great to get these delivered.
The packaging is excellent. I've ordered an unbelievable number of cases of jars of different types and only had one jar arrive broken.
Ingredients per label: Water, organic apples, organic carrots, organic brown rice, organic lentils, organic canola oil.
This has 70 calories, 10% protein, 100% vitamin A, 4% vitamin C, 2% calcium and 4% iron.
I'm informed that the daily intake percentage is based on an adult.
This is a meal that babies around the age of mine are probably almost all going to love instantly. Almost all babies love sweet potatoes for starters. Add apricot puree and there's really not much one could do to discourage babies after that. I recommend this flavor brand.
Ingredients per label: Water, organic sweet potatoes, organic apricot puree, mechanically separated organic chicken, organic brown rice flour.
The rice flour absorbed the water and gave it a real nice consistency, and the sweet potatoes gave it a nice color.
Nutrition per label: 80 calories, 15% protein, 90% vitamin A, 2% vitamin C, 2% calcium and 6% iron.
This one had the most vitamin A of all Earth's Best jars I've tried. I've been informed that the percentage of daily needs met is based on an adult.

I liked getting this one for my twin 10-month olds because it has such interesting ingredients, particularly the zucchini and the garbanzo beans. I like the fact that it's vegetarian yet I believe it has a complete protein since it also has brown rice.

I have the subscription for this one as I really like the ingredients and the fact that I'm giving the babies food that is naturally green.

Baby loved this one, but as he has progressed I had to cut this one out because it is too runny and if I have to move the spoon quickly out of the way of his grabby hands, it is all over!

Earth's Best Turkey Vegetable Dinner hits the spot with apples with turkey. You can add cranberries if you want to take it to the next level. I just can't find non-sweetened and non-dried cranberries even at the better food stores.Apples, carrots and turkey taste good to my 10-month old growing twin girls. Babies love carrots since they're sweet to their taste, so that made a great addition. The whole barley flour absorbs the water to give it an acceptable consistency.
The ingredients per the label: Water, organic apples, organic carrots, mechanically separated organic turkey, organic whole barley flour.
In addition to 12% protein and 50% vitamin A, it has 6% calcium and 4% iron.

JW Pet Company Clean Cup Feeder and Water Cup Bird Accessory, Small, Colors may vary
I have four finches. They are two Bengalese/society finches and two zebra finches. The zebra finches are the more active and messier of my birds. This feeder greatly reduces the mess that they normly make because when they fly up to the perch part to gain access to the food, husks/hulls do not scatter everywhere. The finches like grabbing food and taking it to the highest perch sometimes, so I have the feeders up high enough where they don't feel so inclined to moved around. The small feeders are small enough where they can't hide in it or soil the food. I don't put water in them because finches love taking baths. On another note, they love hiding behind it from one another. The finch version of hide and go see...it's really funny.
The integral perch is too low for a parakeet. Mine can eat from it only if I fill the container nearly to the brim. Food at the bottom of the dish is inaccessible and wasted.
Construction is pretty flimsy, too. The mechanism that snaps the feed cup into place is thin plastic and I suspect it will soon break from fatigue. Once that happens, the feed cup is gonna end up on the floor a lot.
Throw in the fact that it's just plain overpriced and I cannot recommend this product.

Yes, it is a good size, but great for those moms who need extra space for breastpump parts and bottles.

It seems like this product would work fine for plastic bottles, but when I was trying to use it for my glass bottles, not only would the little pegs not stay in so they were always falling all over the place, but the spinning feature wouldn't work with the heavier glass bottles. I'd recommend the "Prince Lionheart Complete Drying Station" instead. I haven't tried any other products, but the Price Lionheart product still has a small footprint and I can fit more bottles on it and access everything I need. Good Luck!Want The First Years Spinning Drying Rack Discount?
Some of the one-star reviewers said this product doesn't work well with glass bottles, but I don't agree. I've been using mine for four months now and it works just fine. I do have to hang my glass bottles opposite of each other so the stand doesn't tip over from the weight, but that is easy to do! This product is well worth the price, and if you are like me and watching every dollar these days, don't spend more money than you need to. I definitely recommend this product.Save 52% Off

Buy Plum Organics Baby Food Training Meals Stage 3 - Multigrain Super Greens - 4 Oz. Pouch Now
My son has been eating the multi-grain super greens with gusto from when he was 8 months old. He likes it cold or warm. Yes, it's quite plain tasting to our grown-up palates but in my opinion great for the little ones. I started putting some cracked pepper and herbs on it more recently. Sometimes, I serve it as a snack, sometimes as a side dish to meatballs or chicken. Highly recommended.My 9 1/2 month old would mush this around in her mouth and not swallow it. There isnt much she doesnt like but she sure doesnt like this stuff. It looks like a weird mushy green stuff. I am sure it is super healthy but she didnt like it at all.The grains make this food really flakey. It just doesn't stick together and was falling off the spoon. A major mess really. It also doesn't have a zip lock top and I thought it did like many of the other pouch foods and took this with us out to dinner. I ended up putting the leftovers in a plastic baggie. My baby also was not a fan of this at all and she is not a picky eater. Even my dogs turned their nose up at it and I thought it tasted pretty nasty.
