  My family loves camping! We also love to have small fires on the weekends just for the fun of it. My six year old son is fascinated with roasting marshmallows and other things over the fires lately. Usually we just find a good twig that's long enough and use that. However, the marshmallows tend to stick to them pretty bad and the tips of the sticks may catch on fire sometimes. These roasting sticks are the perfect for our campfire needs!

 The Marshmallow Pro roasting sticks come in a neat compact zippered nylon bag which is perfect for throwing in a backpack or camping bag for easy transportation. The set of five sticks come in the vibrant colors of purple, blue, yellow, red and green. We love picking out who gets which color! Each stick is  10" long when folded up and extends all the way to 34". They're telescopic so you can easily adjust it to whatever length you may desire at the time. The sticks are made of non-toxic stainless steel and are extremely durable and can withstand any heat without scorching. The tips are pointed but not sharp and can easily skewer a hot dog as well as marshmallows or any other food you might think of to roast. Handy little rubber caps are included to cover the tips when not in use for safety reasons.  The colored grips are very comfortable and actually have a little rotation device located at the base of the handle you can easily operate with just your thumb! 

 These are extremely fun and easy to use! My six year old had fun picking out which one e wanted to use and we roasted hot dogs over my propane grill since it was very windy and didn't want to start a ground fire. The best part about the sticks is how you can easily adjust the length! I was able to get close to the fire, and was able to keep my son at a safe distance away from it. We had a lot of fun and I can't wait to take these camping and try them out for real!These are a million times better than a random stick off the ground!

 My son has a playhouse out back that we love to go hang out in. It's become a little weekend tradition if the weather is night, we'll go watch a little movie or some cartoon episodes and have some popcorn while we snuggle in sleeping bags. We only had a small overhead light in it, and desperately needed some more soft lighting. These Oakleaf LED String lights were the absolute perfect solution!

 The Oakleaf LED lights come in a nice tiny package that would be a perfect surprise gift for anybody! The lights are made of a waterproof copper wire that is completely safe to touch even after 15 hours of continuous use. The copper wire is extremely flexible and easy to shape into designs that stay in place. Each strand has 120 LED lights on it that provide a soft yet bright light to make a perfect setting anywhere. These lights run off of 2 'C' batteries and have control box with three different settings. You can click a button to turn them off or on anytime. There's also a timer on the box the keeps the lights bright for  6 hours and then they dim for the next 18 hours. This makes it extremely convenient where you can just collect them the next day without worrying about them. 

 I installed these lights in my son's playhouse around the upper borders. They easily wrapped around thumbtacks and stayed securely in place. It took only a few minutes to get them all up! We turned out the big light, and these string lights illuminated everything perfectly in a nice soft, cozy light. It was soft enough that we could watch a movie without bothering us, and was bright enough to see each other and everything else in the playhouse. I think these are the absolute perfect addition to the playhouse! It makes our movie nights out there 100x better!

 I have a six year old son, and he's starting to learn how to save money.  Lately, I've been teaching him the value of money and how to identify different coins. A wonderful way to do this is with piggy banks! He had an old, tiny piggy bank that we've been building up for a while, adding random pocket change to. Then we got the Money Savvy Pig! 

 The Money Savvy Pig is a very advanced Piggy Bank that is prefect for teaching kids different ways to save money. The Pig comes in a nice rich blue color and has a sticker sheet with all kinds of different options for goals to work towards. It even had three different choices for the eyes of the pig! The piggy bank is divided into four different sections- Save, Spend, Donate and Invest. Each section has it's own slot up top and a simple turn lock on the bottom of each foot for easy access. 

 We had a lot of fun transferring all his change to the new piggy bank! We talked about how much we should put into each different section and all the different ways we might use the money after we save up enough. He would love to get a new Paw Patrol cruiser toy, but he's going to have to save up quite a bit. He loved being able to decide which section he wanted to put coins in! This is a wonderful, fun way for kids to learn how to save money! We will be adding to this awesome piggy bank for quite a while to save up to our goals!

 I have a six year old son that constantly makes messes. I'll clean the living room and less than an hour later, you could never tell that it was spotless a little while ago. I swear, it's like a toy bomb goes off sometimes. He'll almost never pick up unless I bribe him with a treat of some type. He'll just sigh and try to push everything all in one pile in the corner and call it clean. Sillycutie has made a wonderful playmat that saves me so much trouble!

  The Sillycutie playmat measures 4 feet across. It is a nice ble color with a white border and is made of a waterproof material that can clean up easily. It easily folds up into a small bundle whenever you are not using it. To use it, you just unfold it and lay flat on the ground wherever your kids going to play. Let them play and have fun with it, keeping their toys on it. When it's time to clean up the toys, you can make a fun game out of throwing everything into the middle of the playmat. I like to race my son and see who gets the most in the middle first. Once all the toys are on the playmat, simply pull a drawstring on the side. The string tightens the white ring, neatly bundling everything up! It's very quick and easy! The playmat also has two mesh pockets on opposite sides of the mat to keep the smaller toys in. A convenient carrying handle is sewn on the side for easy transportation.
  This idea is pure genius! I no longer have to argue with my son about picking up his mess and everything get's cleaned up in seconds! I absolutely love this playmat and I'm having my son lay it out every time he plays with his small toys in the living room!

 Me and my six year old son love painting! We go through paints quite fast and we were thrilled to try out the Eunectes Watercolor set. They have a really high quality paintbrush set that impressed us so we tried them out with this watercolor set.

 The watercolors come in a nice little compact box that is lightweight and perfect for carrying in a backpack without taking up much room at all. The tray opens up into two layers with 24 vibrant, quality color tablets. A convenient brush and small tube of white pain is also included to help you get the perfect hue you might need. The paints were very easy to use, we just got the brush wet and moistened a tablet. It only took a few drops of water to get the paint going. The colors were nice and vibrant and lasted on the brush for a few strokes without having to re-dip. The tablets also dried quickly so I didn't have to worry about my son making a mess while we painted. The paints were way better quality than the usual watercolors we get in the store and the colors are nice and dark and vibrant!

 Me and my six year old son love painting! I call him my little Picasso because he's so artistic!A common problem we've had with paintbrushes is that bristles fall out or they get all frazzly, messing up fine lines. This quality paintbrush set I got from Eunectes gave us none of those problems!

 The set came with a variety of paintbrushes that covered out every need. There's sizes 0, 2, 4, 6, 9 as well as a charcoal pencil for drawing and a sponge for face painting. The brushes held up very well throughout my six year old's vigorous painting and they didn't fall apart or fray at all. He can be very rough painting too! The brushes are made of high quality gold nylon hair, which is superior to other hair brushes I've tried. I loved the different sizes and how precise they were!  I've bought brushes before and had to trim them down with scissors to get the size I wanted, but all of these brushes came in the perfect sizes that I needed.  They were very easy to grip and hold without slipping like some other brushes. When we were done painting, they were very easy to wash off and I just let them air dry. This really is a nice quality brush set!

  My family loves to go camping. A true must have item is a lantern, otherwise you're outta luck after dark! The LED lantern by Vodiy covers all of our basic needs and is safer than our other kerosene lanterns. I have a six year old son and he's forbidden from touching our glass-domed kerosene lanterns. However, this lantern seems completely safe for him to use- even unsupervised!
   Made of a durable military grade materials, the triple sealed base makes it rain, moisture and condensation proof. The rubberized coating on the top and bottom is meant to withstand even the most drastic of dropping. There's even a removable outer globe that is of a soft plastic type material guaranteed not to break. The lantern is very small and easy to use with a convenient carrying handle as well. Overall, this lantern is very safe for kids to use by themselves and can withstand habitual clumsiness.

 The lantern also has six lighting modes to suit all your different needs. There's 4 white light modes- high, med, low and SOS flashing. Then there's also two red light modes- red light still and flashing. Each can be cycled through by pressing the lit green button. To turn off, you just press and hold the button for 2 seconds. The lantern runs off of 3 D batteries and can last up to 6 days of solid lighting.
  I absolutely love this lantern and my six year old has officially made it "his". I feel completely safe letting him run around on his own with this lantern! There's no risk of broken glass or getting burned!!

 Lately I've been seeing a lot of pictures and videos of people making artistic pancakes with pancake pens. I'v never done it before and was thrilled when Smokeyjazz offered me a pen of my own to try out!

 THe smokeyjazz pancake pen is very simply made, but delivers amazing results! The pen itself measures 11.5 inches long and 3" wide which seems big, but it actually fits in the hand very well and is easy to handle.  The pen is made of durable contoured plastic and the tip is heat resistant up to 600 degrees! You definitely don't have to worry about the tip melting if you touch it to the pan! The pen has a screw bottom on one end for filling with batter. The other end has the pen tip with a nice clear lid that helps keep it from leaking. You can also easily store extra batter in the fridge as well!

Filling it was very easy to do. I simply mixed up my desired amount of batter, unscrewed the bottom cap and poured the batter in. The opening was nice and large and very easy to pour the batter in without it spilling all over the place. I barely spilled a single drop and that was when I was using a spatula to scrape the bowl clean. The pen holds up to 3 cups of batter which is actually a lot! I only did a small batch of 6 pancakes for me, my husband and my son and it wasn't even halfway full. 

 Using the pancake pen was incredibly easy. For having such a wide tips, it actually created some pretty fine lines. Me and my six year old son had a ton of fun coming up with different designs to draw with the pen. The possibilities are endless! Just make sure that you don't take too long drawing with your pen before flipping, or else they'll get a little toasty on the parts you first drew in! The pen was very comfortable and very easy to control, my six year old was even able to handle it all by himself.
  This pancake pen is a really fun way to get kids involved with cooking and makes them excited about actually eating! I can't wait to get some more experience with this and create some more awesome pancakes!

  I just recently "discovered" baby bandana bibs. I think they are just so adorable, and they're also like a fashion statement while still being completely functional! I was given the opportunity to review this Unisex bandana bib set by Akeekah. Since I'm currently expecting my second lil boy in a few months, I jumped at the chance to review these.

 The 4 pack of unisex bibs I received was absolutely adorable. There is a teal chevron pattern, black and grey zigzag pattern, multi-colored arrows , and blue and tan chevron pattern. They are all unisex and would definitely work well for either boys or girls easily. 
   The first thing I noticed (besides the adorable designs), was how they underside is nicely padded and very soft. These bibs would be perfect to put on a shirtless baby without any chafing whatsoever! The snaps are metal with two different positions on each side for the perfect fit. The bibs are nice and precut, so you don't have to worry about folding them to the perfect bandana shape. They seem very durable, the edges are well stitched and these seem like high quality bibs! And have I mentioned that they are just too adorable?

  I've actually been looking for a decent bathmat for a while now. My six year old son likes to slide around like a seal in the bottom of the shower which isn't always safe. Also, I'm 6 months pregnant and getting pretty big and almost slipped the other night trying to shave my legs. 

 The Melapets bath mat came nicely rolled up in a compact little roll. I got mine in the yellow color, which I wasn't too crazy about, but my tub is green so it actually blended in without clashing. The bathmat has a bunch of cusioned little bubbles on the top that feel really good on my feet in the shower. I actually spent some time massaging my feet on them! It has a ton of little suction cups on the bottom that definitely held it in place very well. Installing it was very easy, I just got the bottom of my tub a little wet and pressed the mat down so the suction cups caught well. The bathmat was actually a really nice size of 26.5" x 14" and covered the majority of my tub easily. It was very sturdy to stand on and I didn't slip around at all during my shower.
   The Melapets bathmat is made of durable allergen free vinyl that is anti-bacterial and mildew resistant as well. The compression molded rubber resists abrasion and is very durable. To top it all off, this bath mat is actually machine washable as well! I've never heard of that before! The spaces between each bubble allows the water and scum to drain away well and leave your mat clean and fresh after every shower.
