EIO Kids Cup Review
The EIO Kids Cup is the perfect training cup for making that difficult transition from bottles and sippy cups to regular glasses.
The cup is designed to help children begin to tilt and sip without using the sucking motion. I love that it has an easy grip surface that allows children to get a good grip and hold securely. I also think that they weight of the glass is great because it seems like it would make kids slow down and focus on what they are doing. It really has a new feel for them and can help with emphasizing the big kid drinking.
EIO was generous enough to send me one of their cups for review. My daughter is still too young to start the transition process and would definitely throw this and make a mess since it's not spill proof. So I used it with my friends 2 and half year old daughter. She thought it was really cool and enjoyed using this rather than her sippy cup. It wasn't a flawless trial and she knocked it over and spilled some water, but that is inevitable with this type of transition. But the fact that she was interested and motivated is great. I think this is a great tool!

Select Comfort Review and Giveaway!
What is more important to parents at the end of the day than a good night's sleep? I know I look forward to it. Select Comfort is a great place to go and take care of all your bedtime needs at great prices. They carry everything from mattresses to pillows and bedding.They are home to the famous Sleep Number Beds!
When I was offered the opportunity to review the In Balance Pillow Protectors from Select Comfort I jumped at the chance. These pillow case covers are designed to reduce the changes in temperature that can contribute to tossing and turning... and pillow flipping. Pillow flipping is a big problem with my husband. He must flip his pillow every hour to get to the cooler side. If I could eliminate some of that I could have a much more restful sleep and so could he! So Select Comfort had found the right home to try these pillow covers out in.
We received two pillow covers and they went on easy and zipped up. We put our pillow cases on over them and couldn't even tell they were there underneath.
The next morning we woke up and I commented on how I didn't wake up to any of his pillow flipping. He reported that he definitely noticed a difference in the temperature of his pillow. He flipped his pillow once right before he fell asleep (the fluff flip) and then didn't remember flipping it again. He said he woke up and felt comfortable on his pillow, which he usually doesn't. He feels that is has passed his test! And I am thrilled that the night time flipping has stopped and I can sleep soundly through the night with a cooler pillow.

Fun and Function Review and Giveaway
Fun and Function is a site that offers a huge variety of items geared toward special needs children. Their selection includes toys and equipment for a variety needs, such as gross motor, fine motor, language and social skills.
As a special education teacher I am thrilled to find a site like this that gives parents the opportunity to find great products at great prices that will be beneficial to their children. Another thing that I love about this site is how easy it is to navigate. They break everything into categories that allow you to look for exactly what you need. And I think it's wonderful that they carry products that all kids would have fun with, so playing with siblings and/or friend is easy! They even carry some popular brands, such as Melissa and Doug.
Fun and Function was generous enough to send me one of their saddle scooters to try with my daughter. While my daughter doesn't have any specific needs, I still see this as a fun a valuable item. When I first presented it to my 14 month old she had no interest. She didn't want to sit on it at all. Once we got her on though she loved it. We moved her around while she sat side saddle style and just had fun with the motion. Over the course of the next week or so I just left it in her toy room for her to explore. I was amazed and pleased to find that she became interested and even taught herself to step over and it on it in the straddle position. She is now even beginning to use her legs to propel herself forward.
Check out their huge selection to see how they really do have something for everyone! From scooters and trampolines to pencil grips and toys.

Cuppa Jane Review and Giveaway
My husband and I both love coffee. It's more than just that extra boost in the morning, we genuinely enjoy the taste. My husband likes to add milk and sugar, but I like my coffee black. So when I find a fantastic flavored coffee I am in heaven. I have tried pretty much every brand available at the local food store and haven't been able to find a flavor that I am head over heels for. Then I stumbled across this great site, Cuppa Jane, that offers a huge variety of flavored coffees. Exciting!
I contacted Cuppa Jane and asked if I could review some of their flavors. Well, they went above and beyond and sent me 5 bags of coffee. Amazing flavors like Black Forest Cake, Creme Brulee, Cinnamom Sugar
Cookie, Tropical Vanilla and their Beautiful Morning Blend. My husband and I were so excited to give them a try.
Aside from offering their Cuppa Jane coffee they also carry some other brands. They carry everything you could need for your coffee and tea at home or at work. And really ladies, don't we just love the name?!?

Each flavor is amazing. With all the coffee I have tried this company is tops with me! The Black Forest had a great hint of cherry. And the Cinnamon Sugar Cookie... ahhh... by far my favorite. I could drink it every single day. I am so excited about this coffee and am also thrilled that this is something I can continue to get at an affordable price. A 16 oz bag retails for about $8.95 and they offer free shipping on orders over $50 in the continental US.Aside from offering their Cuppa Jane coffee they also carry some other brands.
