Plum Organics Mish Mash, Peach, 3.17-Ounce Pouches (Pack of 16)

We love these baby food things in a little pouch. Sooooo much easier to feed to a baby or toddler on the go. Our son loves sucking the fruit out and we are pleased that it is both organic and healthy with nothing added just fruit. For smaller ones, not good to let them handle it themselves, because they love to squeeze it, which gets things everywhere. But older ones can feed to themselves. I like the 3.17 size rather than the bigger one that Plum Organics has for some of the other flavors. It assures that he will eat all or most of it in one sitting rather than having to save some for later. You can also take this size on airplanes without having to have it tested for explosives not the case with the bigger pouches. I also like that it is BPA free. If your little one likes them, ordering in bulk and with subscribe and save makes them much cheaper than at the store.

I really wanted my kids to love it: these are very convenient on the go and should be delicious... or so it seemed. Unfortunately, none of the kids cared for it -it tastes like stage 1 baby food (very bland) and is very runny too, so it can get quite messy if you squeeze a little too hard or if the child drops it.

I discovered these when my daughter was about 15 months old. I wish I had found them earlier. They are organic, taste great, are easy for toddlers to handle and very convenient! I always keep some in my purse and in the car when we're out and about. They are not messy, unless of course they decide to squeeze the pouch, which only happens for us when she's not hungry.

The Plum Organics line also includes some varieties with fruits and vegetables mixed together. They taste surprisingly good and are one way to get my picky eater to eat some veggies. You can find some varieties at reasonable prices on Amazon, others are more expensive for some reason. Babies R Us has had a sale every other month or so where you can get them for $1 each if you buy them in sets of 8. That is usually when I stock up for the next two months. :)

My daughter will start school this fall and i was concerned about lunches and fruit-to-go choices. We've bought several different fruit pouches at a local organic store and she and I loved these the most. It it not overly sweet (and a strawberry variation as well), tastes really good. She can easily eat 2 of these every day.

I really like the fact that it has no sugar and color added + it is organic. Just fruit puree.

I, personally, don't like banana variation, but it's just because of my own personal preferences (i like fresh bananas more than cooked), other than that, my daughter approved all of flavors to 10 stars.

Plum products are such a wonderful and yummy idea for the toddler, heck even the adult from time to time. I keep a full stock of every flavor fruit pouch Plum makes for toddlers. They make a great snack to throw in the diaper bag or back pack, whether you are packing a for a trip to the store, school lunches or going to Disneyland! These pouches have saved the day many many times. I have even grabbed one or two to add to my lunch when no other fruit was available for me, and it was really good! I have and will always recommend Plum to every parent I know!

Itzy Ritzy Snack Happens Reusable Snack Bag

I got 4 of these bags and am very happy. I specifically got these bags because they have a zipper, I'm not a fan of velcro. I don't have to worry about anything falling out when I toss these around. My toddler can get into these quite easily which makes us both happy. We have put quite a few things into these. One bag is devoted to trail mix and it lives in my purse. Another is for fresh apples (they leave a permanent yellowish stain on the liner). Cucumbers did OK and didn't leak (wow) but I prefer a hard container for juicy fruits and veggies. Pretzels stay fresh for the day but get a bit stale if left in the bag for a few days. Sandwiches do great and don't dry out.

Before the first use I cold washed in a lingerie bag on delicate and air dried. Mostly I just flip the liner inside out and wash it with my hand-washable dishes (I leave the outside cloth dry and the liner dries quite quickly). They clean up quick and easy.

I contacted the company to inquire about the material used. They were very friendly, informative and actually conducted their own testing with an outside lab. The lining is BPA, PVC, and phthalate free. Nice to know that they didn't take the word of the fabric manufacturer and did their own testing.

Since purchasing these lunch bags I have gotten one of their larger bags also. We use it for our wet swimsuits and it works wonderfully for keeping the wetness contained. Everything else in the gym bag stays dry.

All-in-all they are a bit expensive but I have gotten much more use out of them than I expected. I would certainly recommend them.

These sounded great. I was excited when they arrived. But they are not perfect. The zipper is a great idea, but the nature of sewing the zipper leaves nooks at the ends where crumbs are hard to get out. I searched high and low about the material used for the waterproof interior and could not find anything describing the material. All I could find is what the material does not contain: BPA, phalate, lead, all those things that get parents running screaming, but there was nothing on what the material does contain. So I finally contacted the company. I got vague roundabout answers, and only got a definitive answer when I asked point blank if the material had polyutherane. Yes, it has polyutherane. I thought polyutherane was toxic and releases VOC's that are harmful to children. Either I am wrong, or it explains why they would not say what the material is. I wonder what other substances the lining contains that I don't know to ask about since the company isn't forthcoming about the make up of the lining. But I still gave it 3 stars because I like the cotton exterior and fabric designs I got. The baggies are easy to use and useful though I wonder if I should continue to use for food.

I was really surprised when I received these bags! I was expecting a thinner material and wasn't expecting it to be as big (despite the measurements in the description), but these are made of a great quality fabric and zipper and are easily large enough for a sandwich and then some! I really like the zipper versus the bags with velcro closures so the crumbs stay in the bag. I ordered the Jungle Blue print and LOVE it! Exactly as pictured. Extremely happy with my purchase would definitely buy these again!

I bought these, the ReUsies, and the ReSnackit bags. Of the three, I definitely like the Itzy Ritzy ones best, even though I like the designs of the other two better. (I bought the Social Circle Blue and the LiquoriceSwirl in the Itzy Ritzy.) I was surprised that all three of the brands are pretty well constructed and made with quality material. The biggest advantage to the Itzy Ritzo ones in my opinion is the zipper the other two use velcro. After experimenting, I've found that the Itzy Ritzy keeps the food better protected than the velcro. It also keeps food particularly sandwiches just a little bit fresher. (Keep realistic expectations. It won't last as long as a zip lock plastic bag, but it will certainly keep it for the day.) It also keeps smaller food, like grapes and goldfish crackers, in without any fear of making a mess or crumbs falling out, which I certainly appreciate. It's super convenient that they are washable, and they hold up well. For those concerned, these are BPA free. I only bought two of these and plan to buy more. So far I've only used them for food, but I plan to buy more to toss in the diaper bag. I think because of the material inside, it can be used for almost anything. I would definitely recommend these to anyone.

I'm going to buck the trend here.

These bags are very cute and stylish. They are effective if you want to reduce your usage of plastic baggies. I like how they are zipper and not velcro. They do a good job, for the most part, of containing foods, although, if you're trying to store something juicy (like cut up oranges), you might be pushing your luck as the moisture will gradually seep through the seams and make the fabric outer cover damp.

If the only things you're going to use this for are dry snacks like crackers or cereal, you're probably fine just wiping the interior with a damp cloth after each use. And then once a week throwing it in the laundry for "deep cleaning".

But if you are using it for anything that is going to leave any residue (juicy fruit, oily chips, PBJ sandwiches, you get the idea here) these are really not practical. Turning inside out and wiping the interior doesn't get it clean enough for me. You can do a load of laundry (but most people don't do laundry every day) or hand wash and submerge it in soapy water, but the fabric outer takes forever to dry. So you really end up having to buy a 2 day supply of these to rotate through if you want to use them everyday. And they are relatively expensive, so buying several might be cost-prohibitive for some.

Also, the outer fabric, while cute is... well... fabric. So it can stain. Making your cute bag not-so-cute anymore. Also, it fades and shrinks a little, so the bag doesn't lay nicely after a while. Not huge deals, but worth mentioning. Your kids probably won't care.

If your looking to buy this for your kids, I would instead go with the Bumkins Reusable Sandwich and Snack Bag, Yellow, Large or Bumkins 2 Count Reusable Snack Bags, Blue/Green, Small. They are about half the price of the Itzy and for anyone who has used the amazing Bumkins Bibs, these are the same material. They are a breeze to wash, dry super fast and I've never had it hold a stain.

The prints are loud and garrish, but my kid likes it fine. Much more practical for busy moms (and dads!).

I have both the Snack Happened and the Bumkins bags, and I reach for the Bumkins every time.

Hoohobbers Rocking Chair, Pink Canvas

I purchased this rocking chair for my 2-year old for Christmas and she seems to like it well enough. It's pretty, light enough for her to move around, and has rubber stoppers on the front so she can get in and out of it. It seems to be well-made and looks really cute, but functionally, it's much smaller than I envisioned -she will outgrow it easily within a year -and the seat angles up toward the front so that unless she's scooched all the way back, which is hard for a toddler to accomplish, it doesn't rock.

The biggest drawback is the $49 price tag: once I actually saw the chair, I would've expected to pay half what Hoohobbers charges. The materials are plastic and mesh and it's small, but it does fold up neatly (although this was not a selling point for me). Had this not been a gift from Santa, I would've returned it and purchased the Fisher Price Infant to Toddler Rocker for $29. Fisher-Price Infant-To-Toddler Rocker Blue/Green My 5-year old has had one since she was 1 and it's large enough and constructed in such a way your child can grow with it. The frame is metal and the seat is cotton; it has a vibrating seat option and activity bar for when the child is small. And it's much more comfortable than a wooden, straight-backed rocking chair. Even though I no longer need any of the baby features, it's what I wish I had purchased this time and what I'll probably end up getting when the Hoohobbers chair is too small, as it is a much better deal.

Kids love it. It breaks down for flat storage and is still heavy duty. Design is solid and can take some abuse if your kids can dish it out.

My children had a very similar rocker by a different name brand thirty years ago. One of my granddaughters (age 2 1/2) loves for me to rock her so I thought of the yellow rocker from the past. I searched for a rocker by name brand of what I had for my children but they no longer made it. I kept searching until Hoohobbers came up. I was so excited to see the same chair! I received the chair after ordering within 2 days. When I took it to my granddaughter she got in it and kept saying, "rocky, rocky rocky."

Wet Ones Antibacterial Hand Wipes - Fresh Scent: 40 Count Canister

Wet Ones moist towelettes really do a great job of helping you clean up your hands and face when you can't get to a sink with soap and water! These are indeed great for fighting off bacteria; and they have a light, mild scent that I like, too.

Just as the other reviewer noted, these are easy to pull out of their dispenser. Just open the canister and pull one out, one at a time until you're done with the canister--then get another one! I am sure that once you try this product you will be very satisfied.

The canister is small enough to fit into a travel sized carry on piece of luggage; and this is great if you want to avoid public restrooms in airports, bus and train stations, and airplane bathrooms, too.

One thing: if you are allergic to scents or perfumes you may want to try another product. I don't mind the mild scent but you may if you're allergic to it.

Overall, you can't go wrong with Wet Ones! I have used these forever with great satisfaction.

I love having wipes handy in my car for cleaning my hands if I can't wash them in a restroom, or for cleaning them if they get messy while we're out. I especially keep a pack handy if we're on vacation, at a concert, or at some kind of festival/fair. They've come in handy when my husband had to change our tire and his hands were black and greasy afterwards.

Pros:

Convenient

Cons:

This scent is strong

It is nice to be able to order them on Amazon.

Happy Baby Organic Baby Food 2 Simple Combos, 3.5 Ounce Pouches (Pack of 16)

Our son is 6 months old. This was his first mix of foods after he's had his first foods an ingredient at a time...You should see how he opens his mouth big like he's about to swallow me whole every single time I bring one of these to him and am about to open it. It is so convenient, too...because when we are out at the park or after a doctor's appointment and he's hungry, I can just take one of these out of the diaper bag and squeeze it into the spoon for him to eat it. Also, when he only has half of it, we put the rest in the fridge and then in the evening we heat it up in a bowl of hot water. It's also great that we never actually touch the food w/ the spoon, so no bacteria goes into the pouch...We love it...We really have no negatives about it...I'm about to order a new batch now as we're vising some friends in TX next week and we need to grab food for the plane and also for the trip. These are great because they're not as heavy as the jars.

Great product, but I pay 75 cents per pouch at our local grocery store. Here they are selling for over 2 dollars a pouch. I was hoping to put a few cases on monthly shipment but given the price I will keep buying them at the grocery store!

I feel mislead by the name of this product as the ingredient list on the package lists pears first then peas and then broccoli. When I tasted it myself I realized why my daughter was enjoying it so much, it just tasted like sweet pears.

We generally make food for our little one at home, but I wanted to try a couple pouches because they seem like a good option for throwing into the diaper bag. I chose the Happy Baby Broccoli, Peas and Pear because of the great reviews from other parents. It's true, our baby opens his mouth WIDE for this stuff. He is a fairly good eater of whatever we give him, but I don't think I've seen him this excited to eat since he first started on solids. The problem is, I tasted a tiny bit of it and it was extremely sweet. The package doesn't list any additional sugars or sweeteners, but I find it hard to believe that pears can be THAT sweet. Even if the sugar comes 100% from the pears and is natural, I still think it's too much. I'll be mixing it in with oatmeal until it's done and after that I will try a couple other brands to see if there is anything less sweet out there. If not...I'll just have to suck it up and bring homemade food with me everywhere.

Baby Bullet BSR-0801M Turbo Food Steamer

I must say that im in love with the whole system but if you have lost your instructions for the steamer they are very hard to acquire without having to call up baby bullet to get new ones! So here it goes I figured I would put it down in the review so this way everyone has them!

Also people don't ever emerge the machine in water it will not work after you do that! To clean it you simply take a cleaning wipe from either Babyganics or Lysol what ever you prefer but don't do it!

One glitch with the steamer is that you must make multiple batches if you are making larger ones for storage! It would be nice if the darn thing was bigger but it's not so if you are gonna make big batches you probably want to do it in a large pot with a strainer insert so the fruit or vegetables don't touch the bottom of the pot!

Also if you need to get any new parts for it just remember that they charge you a per shipping charge so for example if you need a new cooking tray and a lid ok it's fully covered under warrenty but they charge you 3.99 per item to be sent out so if you need new parts over two or three your best bet is to get a new machiene all together it's cheaper that way!

As for those instructions!

Can be found on Pages 5 & 6 of the booklet!

I got the baby bullet for Christmas and later found the turbo steamer for $29.99 at a big chain store. I am a first time mom who works full time and I find this steamer very convenient. Sometimes I will steam and blend food for my baby in the morning before I go to work. It has a booklet that tells you how much water and what setting to put it on for all kinds of fruits and vegetables. When it's done it automatically shuts off so I don't have to hover in the kitchen while I am steaming stuff. I also really like the defrosting feature, so I can thaw out food quickly and easily. Word to the wise though, be careful of getting water in the bottom because it will short the unit out. Also, I wouldn't put the pieces in the dishwasher because BPA-free plastic tends to be a little less stable than other types of plastic.

This steamer is by far the fastest and easiest steamer I have ever used. Not only does it steam fruits and veggies very quickly, it also sterilizes and cooks hard boiled eggs perfectly. Ofcourse we use the steamer before we use our baby bullet and clean up is a breeze. I would recomend this product to every parent out there to help them make healthy and nutricious foods!

I finally gave in and bought a steamer to defrost baby food. I wanted to stay away from both plastic products and the microwave, so I had been using a stove top double boiler/steamer to defrost pureed baby food (Fagor Stainless-Steel 2-Quart Double Boiler with Steamer Insert). I still steam food for my 3-year old this way. However, with my 9-month old baby now well into solid food, that stove top steamer was not big enough to defrost multiple foods at once to feed both kids. I needed something more.

I'd been researching Amazon for a regular "adult" food steamer so that I can use it for steaming all kinds of food, not just baby food. Most of these "baby" products come with a premium and do less, so this Baby Bullet steamer was not on my radar as a potential purchase.

However, at Toys R Us, after a sale and coupon, I got this Baby Bullet steamer for $24 on an impulse buy. I've been using it for about a month, and I now regret the purchase.

PROS:

1. Steams eggs perfectly

2. Saves counter space

3. Walk away from it worry-free (automatic shut-off)

4. BPA-free

CONS:

1. Plastic cover warps after a few uses

2. Steel plate does not detach and cannot be washed (can be wiped only)

3. Not recommended for dishwashers

4. Tiny (may be a PRO for you)

5. Poor construction and feels flimsy

The Pros are nice, but they are not unique to this product...I believe there are better options. The biggest con for me was the size. I should have gotten a bigger steamer so I can use it for steaming other foods as well as baby food. With a bigger steamer, you can also sterilize baby bottles, nipples, sippy cups, etc...this unit is too small for anything but bottle nipples. I also dislike that the plastic cover warped and does not fit the unit snugly anymore, although it does not seem to effect steaming. My steamer is also not level...it is wobbly. Again, it does not effect performance but is quite annoying.

I am now looking for a larger BPA-free electric food steamer. This Black & Decker HS1050 7-Quart Food Steamer is seemingly BPA-free (Google "black decker HS1050 bpa") and has large compartments where I can use ceramic/glass bowls. Or I may opt for a universal steamer insert to go with my stove top double boiler/steamer so that I can have a second steamer basket and stack them to steam more food at once on the stove top. But the worry-free walk-away convenience of an electric steamer seems *SO* worth it when there are two hungry kids screaming in the background...

I purchased this steamer at Babies r us for $29.99. However it wasn't worth it. The plastic was warped so much so that the top wouldn't fit into the base. I returned the product immediately. As for the baby bullet, I've found that the Ninja Master Prep (which I already owned) is BPA free and purees better. Hope this review helps.
