KISS Naturals - A Giveaway! - CLOSED
Congratulations to our winner:
Comment #119 - speck135les said...the soap is one we'd enjoy
I will be the first to admit it...we're a nerdy family. Seriously...I am a nerd. Chip is a geek. We have one child who is both brilliant and interested in geekery (so we have yet to determine what he will be) and one little monster who just likes to make a mess and get into trouble. She is brilliant too for her almost 2-years of age. =)
Seriously...we do our best to answer our son's questions as honestly as possible and make most activities learning opportunities. If we go for a walk, we talk about the bugs or plants we see. Or why the birds are migrating. Or why the birds are chomping down on the dead armadillo in the road. Whatever works. But we love for our children to learn.
And I love crafty artsy projects for our children. I love projects that integrate learning, exploroing, creating, and having fun. That's why I LOVE Kiss Naturals.
Kiss Naturals offers a variety of DIY kits for kids that are easy and fun and gives them a huge sense of accomplishment for creating something with their own hands!
With Kiss Naturals, your little one can create their own perfume, bath fizzies, soap, or lip balm! How fun! And what's even better, you don't have to worry about strong chemicals or hazardous effects...the ingredients of Kiss Naturals products are 100% natural and will cause no harm to your child.
I think these would be awesome for a birthday party activity, a slumber party activity, something to do on a rainy day, or just something to do to entertain your little girly girl.
And if you don't have girly-girls, you can do what my son did and make teacher's gifts with these kits! It's so simple that my 5-year old pulled it off all by himself with me reading him the directions!
The Review:
We chose to review the Bath Fizzies with the idea of giving them to Patrick's Pre-K teachers here at the end of the school year. Here is the kit we received.
Here is my guy (yes, in his pjs) getting ready to start the process. We chose to divide it into two batches so we could make one batch of key lime scented and one batch of orange scented (we just couldn't decide!). And by the way...ignore the mess on the table in the background!
Using a pipette to add the essential oils. Mommy, who spent many hours in a chemistry lab, is so proud!
Watching it fizz!
Time to put it in the heart-shaped molds!
Doing such a thorough job! Although the instructions did not tell us to, we covered the side we'd already done to avoid lime/orange contamination. =) Not that it would've hurt anything, of course, but we just wanted to keep them separate. Because we're anal-retentive like that.
And 12 hours later, we got our finished product. These adorable heart-shaped fizzies will be wrapped in baggies and tied off with a ribbon and a tag noting that they were hand-made by Patrick with love.
We had some left-over mix so I put them into candy-molds and created some fizzies for my little ones to play with in the bath. =)
And THAT'S how you knock out fun, education, and covering a teacher's gift all in one shot!

Tropical Traditions Powdered Dishwasher Detergent Review and Giveaway
CLOSED
Congratulations! Winner #11 BethElderton
Tropical Traditions allowed me to review yet another one of their many products. This time I choose to review their Powdered Dishwasher Detergent with Enzymes.
Household Traditions Powdered Dishwasher Detergent is non-toxic and environmentally safe with no harmful by-products upon decomposition. Household Traditions Powdered Dishwasher Detergent does NOT contain chlorine, phosphates, fillers or fragrances. Household Traditions Powdered Dishwasher Detergent rinses away completely leaving no residue on your dishes so you get a clean, safe sparkle.
Did you know that many states have now banned or limited phosphates in automatic dish detergents because of the harm it causes to the environment? No worries with Tropical Traditions Powdered Dishwasher Detergent. Not only does it not contain any phosphates but it also does not contain any other toxic materials such as chlorine. I know there has been much debate about non phosphate formula cleaners not getting the job doing but I did not find this to be an issue with this automatic dish detergent. It really cleaned my dishes just as well if not better then other commercial dish detergents I have used. I love that it is safe for the environment and for my family! At first I was a little unsure about this detergent being in powdered form I tend to stick to liquid dish detergents because I have had problems with powdered detergents leaving a chalky residue on my dishes. I was very pleased to find I did not have a problem with this happening with this detergent! Tropical Traditions Powdered Dishwasher Detergent has added Enzymes to help with the cleaning process as well as a naturally derived rinse agent and hard water treatment additive. This makes for a residue and spot free clean! This dishwashing detergent comes in a large 5 pound tub with a convenient scoop making, it easy to fill your dishwasher it is also fragrance free which is another positive in my book since I can't stand those citrus-y scents many commercial dish detergents add. You can purchase your tub of Tropical Traditions Automatic Dishwasher Detergent with Enzymes on Tropical Traditions website.
The generous people at Tropical Traditions have allowed me to host yet another giveaway. How would you like to win a 5 pound tub of Tropical Traditions Automatic Dishwasher Detergent with Enzymes?
