Labelers have surely come a long way. The last labeler that I used was a manual Dymo labeler. With that, I had to crank a wheel to each letter and then I had to squeeze a handle to imprint each letter on to the label tape. I’m feeling a little old here. Had Brother not nudged me to review their new P-touch Labeling System, I would still probably be oblivious to electronic labelers. I’m not a hardcore labeler, so I don’t keep up with the latest labeling systems. There’s one thing that I have trouble doing, and that’s staying organized. Continue Reading →

I am totally digging this stage in Boogie’s life. He’s old enough for hands on learning, so he can do things like color, draw, and play with Play-Doh. In honor of National Play-Doh Day (September 16th), Miss Brittany’s hooked Boogie up with a Deluxe Gift Set which included three 7 oz containers of Miss Brittany’s Organic Preschool Fun Dough, a 100% organic toddler apron, a wooden rolling pin, and four wooden shaped stampers. Now you all know that Mr. Boogie has been driving us up the wall lately and this gift from Miss Brittany’s was heaven sent. This has been Continue Reading →

Toys are created with specific purposes and functions. Children, however, always seem to find new ways to play with the toys other than what their designers intended. Take Boogie and the Clipo Creativity Table. Boogie has been playing with the Clipo Creativity Table for 2 months now. We got it when he was 14 months. In those 2 months, he has found many ways to play with the Clipo Creativity Table and it’s pieces. He’s flipped the table base over and sat inside. He’s run through the house throwing the Clipo pieces. He’s found great amusement turning the motorized gear Continue Reading →

Once Boogie turned one, it seemed as if his personality really started taking off. I started seeing him differently. He was no longer the baby that I could dress in duckies, froggies, and cutesy pastel blues. During the transition, I paid special attention to the clothing that would reflect the big boy that he is. When approached to review a shirt from LinenKids, a Lithuanian eco-friendly clothing boutique for kids, I couldn’t help but select the Boys White Linen Shirt for Boogie. It was hand crafted to order and shipped to us straight from Lithuania. The shirt is definitely unique Continue Reading →

Boogie and I have had the opportunity to get our hands on some all natural art supplies from Clementine Art. What I love about these products is that they are made of all natural ingredients and they are free of chemical dyes and additives. Clementine Art products are made with materials like kosher soy wax, non toxic mineral pigments and materials that you may find in your kitchen such as spinach, lemons, strawberries, and flour. At the age of 16 months, Boogie’s still in that stage where everything he touches has to go in his mouth. While conventional art supplies Continue Reading →
