Chicco Baby Space Robot

Okay so this is such a funny toy. It is marketed for 12 months or older, but Victoria loves this toy already. She really enjoys the remote because it lights up when the button is pushed while simultaneously controlling the space robot. This toy is so great to teach cause and effect, and your little one will learn to control the robot's movements as well. It plays musics and lights up as well. I found this toy at www.onestepahead.com for $24.95 but if you hurry you can get this fabulous toy at www.zulily.com for $14.99. This is wonderful toy for a girl or boy and for a wide range of ages!

Early Years Fill and Fun Water Mat

This mat has been absolutely wonderful for Victoria, and I know that Hannah really enjoyed it as well. As many of you Moms already know, tummy time is very important for your newborn. But it can be very challenging getting your little one to enjoy it long enough for it to actually be beneficial. This mat is just the toy that can provide your baby with the right amount of entertainment to promote tummy time! You simply fill it with water, and the plastics toys inside make noise as they move around hitting each other as your baby playfully hits the mat. Victoria really enjoyed seeing the shapes move around in the water. Even when Victoria was sitting up and starting to learn to scoot, she loved looking and hitting the mat making the shapes move around in the water.

This tummy time mat can be purchased at http://www.amazon.com/ for $10.97.

A Wonderful Way to Shop!

So I absolutely love to shop, but more than that I really love a great deal on a fabulous find. One of my favorite places to shop is a website called Totsy. It is not highly publicized so many of you may not know of it. Totsy has specific boutique sales that last a couple of days, and once an item sells out, it is no longer available. You can visit Totsy at www.totsy.com, and sign up to become a member. It is free, and all you do is register your email and password. You will receive an email informing you of what is going on sale. I know Morgan has found some wonderful deals as well, and I have found many items at this particular website that I had not previously known anything about. So visit the website and sign up and enjoy the savings! Happy Shopping!

Gund Fun Peek A Boo Bear

I found this bear while shopping with my mom at a children's store.  We do not have one of these yet but thought it was the cutest thing in the world.  This bear plays Peek-a-boo with baby, talks, giggles and raises arms with blanket to hide the bear's face.  Hannah enjoyed watching the the bear and grinned ear to ear while the bear played peek-a-boo with her.  Maybe if Hannah is lucky the Easter bunny will bring her one in her Easter Basket.  

This bear is available at http://www.amazon.com for $33.25.

Vulli Sophie the Giraffe Teether

SOPHIE

This teether is designed to awaken baby's senses.  The selling point is that it stimulates all of baby's senses. It "stimulates sight: The dark and contrasting spots all over Sophie the Giraffe's body provide visual stimulation and make her easily recognizable to baby.  Hearing: Her squeaker keeps baby amused. Taste:Sophie the Giraffe is very flexible and has lots of parts for baby to chew like ears, horns, legs. She is perfect for soothing baby's sore gum when teething and is completely safe. Sophie is made of 100% natural rubber and food paint. Touch: Sophie the Giraffe is perfect for baby's small hands. She is very light and her long legs and neck are easy for baby to grip. She is very soft to touch, stimulating soothing physiological and emotional responses. Smell: The singular scent of natural rubber makes Sophie the Giraffe very special and easy for your child to identify. Sophie is Phthalates and BPA free."

This is an expensive teether but it truly is one of Hannah's favorites.  I know Victoria has one as well and it is rare if either of us leaves the house without it.  This, like the Oball rattle, was one of Hannah's first toys she loved.  It was great early on because it really was an easy toy for her to hang onto and put in her mouth.  Today, she still loves it.  Hannah's face always lights up when she sees Sophie.     

I found it on amazon.com for $17.32.  

Absolutely a Fabulous Find!

This absolutely one of the my favorite childrens' books. It is a personalized book specifically printed for your child or for that special little one you may be buying a gift for. This is only one of many options you can choose from. I know that Hannah has this particular book pictured here, and Victoria has the My Very Own Fairy Tale. The pictures are so beautiful, and each story is full of wonderful surprises. The book details each letter of the child's name and tells the story around it. This is by far one of my favorite fabulous finds. It also is one of my most favorite gift items. This book can be purchased online at www.iseeme.com. The price ranges from $24.95 to $29.95 depending upon which book is chosen. There are also many wonderful gift sets as well.
