    blog post photoThese food containers are perfect for a mom on the go.

    Finding the right size for lunches can be a challenge.The different-sized containers have compartments to make your life just a little easier. The salad container has a separate compartment for dressing – no more soggy salads! Remember, kids will eat those veggies if there's ranch to dip it in! One of the containers ingeniously comes with a compartment to hold utensils so you don't have to go on a search party for those every lunch hour.

    And, if you don’t have time for a bowl of cereal in the morning, you can bring it to work with you since the cereal bowl container has a convenient milk compartment. Nice! Plus, the E-Z Freeze technology will keep your food cold and fresh, too!

    These containers can help you and your family eat home-made, healthier foods and save money by eating out less! Not to mention, it's great not to waste disposable plastic zip bags anymore!

    blog post photoEvery mom suffers when her baby is having a hard time breathing because of a cold and runny nose. Stress time!

    How can you get your baby to blow their nose when it is stuffy? Impossible.  Thank goodness for the one the hospital sends home, but this one seems to give it a run for their money. 

    This non-invasive nasal aspirator unclogs your baby's nose and makes him (and you) breathe a little easier. A couple of drops of saline and a few quick sucks with this simple device and -- hallelujah – some relief!

    This is the best "nasal sucker" I’ve found because it doesn’t irritate the baby and it's quick and easy. No, it’s never fun having to do something like this, but at least this product makes it less of a headache.

    All mommies should have this product on hand!

    Give the gift of relief to your struggling baby. Get a NoseFrida at Amazon.com for just $13!

    blog post photoCooking just got easier thanks to this amazing line of pots and pans by Rachael Ray. 

    I have been using her cooking products for years (her Balsalmic Vinegar Glaze is to die for!). I was lucky enough to find these are top quality pots and pans that actually make preparing meals easier for me.

    Finding the right shape and size for your meal prep makes all the difference. My favorite is this Oval Nonstick Saute Pan.  It heats evenly, allows enough space to cook for family and friends and clean up is a breeze. Its big size (5 quarts) and oval shape is just perfect for making whole family meals, without taking over the entire stove top. The lightweight design and double grip handles work great for easy moving, while the clear lid allows you to check your meal’s progress.

    The whole line has great features that make cooking fun and easy! Whether you’re making one of Rachael Ray’s ’30-minute meals’ or your own family’s favorite dish, you’ll love using her cookware ! And this oval saute pan could easily become your new favorite kitchen accessory.

    Check out her amazing line of cookware for yourself and see how it makes cooking a breeze!

    blog post photoThis is the perfect must-have for child safety. This child security device, in the shape of a cute bear, works up to 150 ft. away.

    It clasps onto your kid’s sneaker or belt and communicates with a keychain transmitter you keep on hand. When you notice your kid has wandered too far in a public place, like a mall or theme park, you just press the button on your keychain and you will hear an audible sound locating your kid.

    So, if you’ve ever worried about child safety in public areas, keep your leashes on your pet and get this wireless locator. It's definitely not a substitute for watching your child at all times, but a little added comfort in busy places- why not?

    Get one for peace of mind - about $21 at Amazon.com

    blog post photoWith all the negative things I’ve read about pesticides and children, I want to be as careful as I can when it comes to cleaning fruits and veggies.

    Eat Cleaner wipes are all-natural, tasteless, odorless and more effective than just plain water when it comes to getting rid of pesticide residue and surface wax. I don’t want my family to ingest any of that – just the natural vitamins in the fruits and veggies, please! 

    These biodegradable wipes are also used to clean counter tops, utensils and even your hands. They're perfect for at home or on-the-go. Just keep them handy to clean your child’s fruit anywhere – no rinsing required! These wipes make healthy eating simple and easy.

    Get these wipes at www.eatcleaner.com.

    blog post photoThis chart makes it easy to teach your kids good behaviors.

    It comes with about 100 magnetic tiles that list different good behaviors, as well as rewards for those behaviors. The behaviors include sharing, taking a bath, getting dressed, getting ready for bed, brushing teeth, saying please and thank you, setting the table, etc. What mom doesn't wish her kids would do more of these behaviors? 

    I love that manners are rewarded because in my family, I take that just as seriously as chores. This chart is a great way to motivate the kids.

    Plus, they'll have so much fun putting up their own magnets after they've done their share. This chart shows that positive reinforcement really works.

    Teach your kids good manners - get a chart for $15 at Amazon.com.

    blog post photoMake bath time safe for your little one.

    My kids can't wait to dive in, but you know the water goes from cold to extra hot without much notice. This thermometer checks the water’s temperature every 2 seconds and alerts you when it gets too hot (above 100.4 degrees) or too cold (below 89.6 degrees).

    It's battery powered, activates when it hits the water and de-activates when it is removed from the water.

    It’s also cute enough to double as a fun turtle-shaped bath toy for your kid to play with!

    Get it for just $15 from Amazon.com.

    blog post photoYour kids are sure to get a kick out of this pogo stick!

    This is the kind of toy you want your kid to be playing with - as long as they're completely safe. It encourages your boy or girl to get outside and get active, while having fun at the same time. Other benefits of the pogo stick? Improves coordination and burns up energy.

    Before use, make sure your kid is old enough to handle this product, usually over age 8 or 9, and that they wear a helmet for safety. Then, watch your kid bounce around on this pogo stick for hours of excitement and fun.

    Who knows? You might even find it’s a great workout for mom and dad, too!
