Review/Giveaway: The Monkey Mat

The Monkey Mat is a 5×5′ portable, water-repellent, lightweight clean surface ideal for moms and outdoor enthusiasts on-the-go. This soft yet durable mat folds into its own compact pouch with an attached strap that can be fastened anywhere for easy transport: on a purse, backpack, stroller or wrist.

Super handy and compact, this is a perfect solution for mom's like myself while on the go.


The Monkey Mat is an all purpose, portable mat that you can take everywhere you go! As a mom of 3 boys I was really excited to review this product. The Monkey Mat is so 
convenient and practical. This is the perfect solution for our little trips to the beach, lake, park, baseball games, or wherever.  My 8 and 3 year old sons love it but I found it most useful with my 10 month old son.  I carry it in the diaper bag so it's always available when I need it. Compared to the outdoor blanket I typically use, the Monkey Mat wins by far plus it's way cuter.  Designed in giraffe print and bright orange, this would work for either gender!  I love that the storage pouch is actually attached to the mat, this avoids misplacing or searching to find what my 3 year old could of done with it.  The fabric is lightweight and soft for my baby to crawl and lay on.  The loops in the center of the mat are wonderful, lets me attach on my little one's toys. I really wish I'd discovered the Monkey Mat way sooner!




 The Pros: ease of use, self storage pouch, cute style and it's gender neutral, easy to keep clean, loops for attaching baby toys, easy to tote anywhere, machine washable

 The Cons: I wish the mat was a just a tad bit little larger in size. Staking the corners down is a must otherwise it just bunches up into a wad of mess when you move, so it should include mini stakes. 

Overall, I really like Monkey Mat  and think it's an awesome product worth getting. This is definitely a mat that is useful for both babies and adults.  It really does come in handy and my kids think it's pretty cool too.

Z.Daisy Travel Blankie Review & Giveaway CLOSED

Closed
Congrats to winner - helenlam
Z. Daisy offers unique baby gifts like our Binkie Bungee™ (Pacifier Clip), Blankie Bungees™ (Blanket Clips) and Baby Travel Blankets! Your baby will love to snuggle with these plush fabrics. Enjoy shopping and tell your friends about us!
Z. Daisy sent me over one of their Travel Blankies for review.  I chose the Ross Blue Stripe Blankie for my son, Brinner.  He loves anything soft so I knew he would love this!  This is the cutest little blanket!  Perfect for on-the-go and nap time.  Brinner has to have a blanket in his hand when he sleeps so this was perfect for him to snuggle up to! 


Z. Daisy was great to work with!  They offer the Travel Blankie in six different styles!  They're all very colorful and vibrant!  These are perfect for little ones to carry along with them in place of a bulky full size blanket.  This would make a perfect gift for any mother-to-be, also!

Scandle Travel Tin Review & Giveaway CLOSED

Closed
Congrats to winner : AshleyOhio

The Scandle Body Massage Candle is a fragrant hand-poured body massage candle that, when burned, melts to create a healthy body massage oil that can be used to enhance the health of your skin. Not only, is The Scandle Body Massage Candle healthy for your skin, but it is also healthy for the environment...emitting less soot and toxins into the environment than parrafin candles.

  I was sent one of the Scandle Travel Tins to review and love it!  The entire wax burns.  It's not like other candles that just burn straight down and then you end up with half of a candle that you can't even use because the wick is gone! I received the scent, Fig & Brown Sugar and it smells delicious.  I placed it in my bedroom and my whole room filled with the scent!  The candle is full of Vitamin E, which is incredibly great for your skin. My skin is super soft! I've been using it on my cuticles since they need a little moisture!  What's better than a candle that's also a moisturizer!? Wow!

Here's more information on the Scandle Travel Tin from the site...
Experience the ultimate massage and body indulgence with our Scandle Originals fragranced with 100% body safe fragrance oils. Scandle is in a square lightweight tin for easy application. Silicone band can be removed after use and used as an eco-wrist band reminder to "Reduce. Reuse. Recycle." Burn Time 15-30 hours.
