I have been majorly slacking the past few days so I decided to take today and play catch up! And remember there are still a ton of great Fun in the Sun giveaways to enter so make sure you check them out!

If you have kids you know how hard it can be to get them to do anything education related in the summertime. I am always looking for ways to incorporate fun and learning and it's not an easy task! About a month ago I was introduced to JumpStart.com when I was approached to do a review and giveaway for them. As always I did my research and discovered that JumpStart is the perfect mix of fun and educational which is something that makes this mom of four very happy! JumpStart is an adventure-based 3D virtual world that is easily personalized, super imaginative, and tons of fun while still being educational! JumpStart teaches your kids math, reading, and critical thinking in a new and super exciting way! Here is a little bit more about JumpStart from the website...

A little background on our company – For more than 15 years, Knowledge Adventure has set the standard in kid’s software by creating the finest educational products for use in the home and the classroom. In addition to our CD games, we’ve launched a beta version of our first browser-based virtual world at www.JumpStart.com, for kids 3-10 years old. Kids can create avatars called Jumpeez for themselves and explore magical worlds, discovering and unlocking games, videos, and storybooks that teach everything from math to reading. Over the next year, we will continue to add more features, portals and learning games to this site. I encourage you to check it out at www.JumpStart.com.

My children are always playing games on the computer the problem is that the games that they choose to play are not at all educational and at their own admission are not always so much fun! My oldest daughter Taylor (10) and my middle daughter Savanna (7) were my guinea pigs for this review and they were absolutely ready and willing to help me out! The first thing I noticed about JumpStart was how interactive the game is! One of the very first activities is creating your own Jumpeez character which both of my girls absolutely loved doing! Once the girls got started playing they loved all of the different lands they could visit and mini-games they could play. I liked the fact that they were playing a game that they enjoyed and learning at the same time...what mom doesn't love that!

It's Day 12 of our Fun in the Sun summer blog party and I'm pretty sure that I may have saved the best (at least the funnest) for last! I want to say a huge thank you to everyone who entered the giveaways! I hope that everyone has a safe and so very happy 4th of July!

Now my children all have scooters and bicycles and while they love to ride them they also can get BORING (or so they say). I'm always looking for fun and exciting new outdoor toys that they can ride on and when I came across the Skitter I knew that I had found the baddest (in only the best way of course), most coolest mode of summertime transportation there is!

Skitter Toys (makers of the Skitter) is an American company based in Southern California. The Skitter is a very unique ride on toy that will chase away every ounce of boredom your kids may have this summer! The Skitter is for everyone aged 2 to adult and trust me you'll have as much fun as your kids with this one!

We received a red Skitter to review and let me just say that this toy has single-handedly entertained all of my children almost every single day! Of course my oldest daughter's love the Skitter and would ride it all day if I let them but my son (who is 23 months old) loves the Skitter as well, he sits on it and pushes himself around the house and loves every single minute of it. My youngest daughter (she's almost 8 months) loves to sit on her sisters' lap and cruise around the house as well. This is a product that you must check out! And while you're checking out the Skitter make sure you check out Three Peas Co, boutique the absolute coolest place for urban chic apparel and accessories...seriously this stuff is adorable!

Check out the videos below of two of my girlies riding their Skitter...and a little shameless self promotion of my blog too!






Buy it!!! The Skitter can be purchased online at SkitterToys.com!

Now here's the cool part! The crazy awesome people at Skitter Toys are offering one of my Misadventurous readers a Skitter of their own! How totally cool is that!!?!!

Wow it's Day 9 in our Fun in the Sun summer blog party already? Time really does fly when you're having fun I guess! As always make sure to head over to my girl Alexis' blog and enter all of her awesome giveaways when you're done here!

Today's giveaway is for the Trendy Tadpole the coolest, hippest place to get the cutest t-shirts you've ever seen! Here is the original review I did for them.


When it comes to clothing I do not always dress how you would expect a mom of four to dress. I love fun, funky clothes that make me smile. When it comes to the clothing I dress my children in I tend to go for the same fun, fresh styles that I choose for myself.

When I found the Trendy Tadpole I fell in love with their t-shirt designs. The Trendy Tadpole offers hip, funny onesies and t-shirts for only the trendiest of tots! Their designs range from funny to seriously charming so you are guaranteed to find something to fit every personality! They have so many cute designs that you'll have a hard time choosing just one. You can also choose which style and color of shirt with most deigns.

My son received the "King of the Playground" t-shirt to review and I must say that he definitely had a edge on the competition with his adorable shirt! The t-shirt was so soft and very well made and the design on the front was done exceptionally! The first time he wore his shirt was on a visit to the gorcery store and I can't even count how many times people came up to me and commented on how adorable his shirt was and asked where I got it from!

Those shirts are the cutest huh?

Buy it!!! You can purchase all of the adorable styles pictured above and many more at TrendyTadpole.com

Now the ultra hip people at Tendy Tadpole are offering one of my fabulous readers an awesome shirt of their own...can you say "That rocks!" One winner will receive any 1 shirt from the Trendy Tadpole website!

Win it!!! To be entered into this giveaway all you have to do is head over to Trendy Tadpole, look around, come back here and tell me which t-shirt design you would choose if you won...it's that easy! This is mandatory and must be completed before any extra entries count!!!

Extra Entries!!! Please be sure to leave separate comments for each extra entry! If you posted our Fun in the Sun button before June 22 you receive 5 extra entries into this giveaway, if you blogged about our Fun in the Sun summer blog party before June 22 then you receive 10 extra entries into this giveaway!

I can't believe it's already Day 7 in our Fun in the Sun Summer blog party. I hope you've had a chance to check out all of the great giveaways here and over at Running Away? I'll Help you Pack. I thought we would mix it up a little bit today and just do a review and get back to the giveaways on Monday!

My son lives to play outside, every morning when he wakes up he walks to the gate by the front door and says, "Outside Mommy!" Since summertime here in Ohio is nothing if not scorching I always worry that my kids will get too hot while they play outside. Finding toys that are fun and will keep my babies cool on a sweltering summer day is a must for me.

I have always been a big fan of Step 2 and their great children's products, they are one of my go to brands. The Step 2 family of products offer affordability, great craftsmanship, and loads of fun. The Step 2 product that my family received to review was the Arctic Splash Water Table and let me just say that my son was thrilled when it arrived at our house and even more thrilled when we put it together and filled it with water for the first time. The Arctic Splash water table was very easy to put together my fiance spent maybe 5 minutes total putting the water table together. Some of the features of the Arctic Splash water table include:



  • Multi-level water wells.
  • Raised design which keeps your kiddos feet dry.
  • Includes an ice castle, ice slide, tunnel, and dumping bucket.
  • Very cute animal squirt toys (a penguin, a walrus, and a polar bear).
Gaige asks me every day to "Pay table" which when translated means "Mom I wanna play with my water table." He could spend hours splashing and playing with the dumping bucket and so could my other children as all four of them have splashed around on the table a time or two. There was one thing that I wished was a little different about the Arctic Splash water table and that is that the Ice Castle, while adorable and lots of fun to play with, it does not hook on to the water table which means that my son spent more time knocking it over than he actually did playing with it. Overall the Arctic Splash water table is an excellent summertime toy perfect for kids of all ages!

Today is day 4 in our Fun in the Sun summer blog party! After you check out today's giveaway make sure you go on over to my girl Alexis' blog and check out all of her great giveaways!

Now on to the review!

The one thing I dislike about summer is having to buy sandals for my son, he's almost two and while he's usually pretty good at wearing tennis shoes he hates sandals. Last summer it was a battle lost trying to get him to wear flip flops and sandals were not too much easier to pull off. Needless to say I am always trying to find cute new sandals that he will actually wear, which is not an easy feat.

I've seen several reviews for See Kai Run on other blogs and I always wondered what all of the buzz was about, so when I decided to do the Fun in the Sun blog party I knew that I wanted See Kai Run to be part of the festivities since they have some of the cutest sandals ever. Here's the low down on See Kai Run. See Kai Run was born from one moms need for comfortable shoes for her son. See Kai Run and Smaller shoes offer comfortable, flexible, and hip shoes for babies and older children. All of the shoes take a classic design and give them a modern, fun, and funky edge that leave other brands in the dust! There are so many unique and fun designs that you'll have a hard time choosing just one style!

My son received the Benson sandals from the See Kai Run line to review. Now as I mentioned before getting my son to wear sandals has been challenging to say the least so I was a little skeptical about him actually wearing them. The first time I put the sandals on him he was a little hesitant about wearing them but quickly warmed up the idea of having something other than tennis shoes on his feet. The sandals are very stylish and extremely flexible that it's really no wonder he didn't have a problem wearing them. The leather is exceptional and the inside of the shoes were so soft (I find that most children's shoes, especially sandals, are very rough on the inside but that was not the case with the Benson sandals) and the best part is that Gaige actually likes wearing the shows which blows me away!

Buy it!!! You can purchase See Kai Run and Smaller shoes online at SeeKaiRun.com and at boutiques and retailers nationwide.

Now the great people at See Kai Run have offered a pair of shoes in their choice of style (from the See Kai Run or Smaller lines) to one of my readers...you know you like that!

Win it!!!

1. To be entered into this giveaway please visit See Kai Run and look around, come back here and leave me a comment telling me which style of shoe you would choose if you won. This is mandatory and must be completed before any extra entries count!

It's day 3 of our "Fun in the Sun" Summer Bash. I hope you've had a chance to check out day 1 and day 2 and also my girl Alexis' giveaways!

Today's giveaway is for the tweens and teens! My oldest daughter is closer than I'm comfortable with to becoming a teenager and the number one issue we seem to get into the most arguments about is her personal hygiene. It's not that she doesn't want to take a shower or any of that, it's that she doesn't always wash her hair as well as I would like which usually means greasy, dirty looking hair that doesn't smell too nice! The most frustrating part is that there are no hair care products for tweens in my local store which means she is using my shampoo or baby shampoo and neither are designed for her specific hair care needs.

About a month ago I found out about Totally Texty shampoo and conditioner which is made specially for teens and tweens. When I had the opportunity to review both the girls and boys versions of Totally Texty I was very excited since I have 2 smelly haired tweens running around my house this summer! First let me give you the 411 (I had to do that) on Totally Texty! Totally Texty is a haircare product line that was developed specifically with teens and tweens in mind. Totally Texty is paraben free, sodium laurel/laureth sulfate free, DEA/TEA free, and Kathon CG free which makes the decision to use it on your children so much easier! Totally Texty is also super concentrated so a little bit goes a long way! The most unique thing about Totally Texty is the fact that it's geared to the way teens and tweens communicate the bottles are also shaped to look like cell phones which make the products so cute! The Totally Texty shampoos and conditioners are named using texting terms like "YTMN" (you're the man now for boys) and "DDG" (drop dead gorgeous for girls) which I think is absolutely genius!

We received both the YTMN shampoo and the DDG shampoo and conditioner to review. Of course my daughter got very excited when she saw the shampoo and conditioner (yes she got excited about shampoo) because she knew that it was something made just for her! I have to admit that I was skeptical about how well the shampoo and conditioner would actually work but as soon as she finished blow drying her hair after her shower I knew that my reservations were unfounded...Totally Texty worked great! Taylor's hair was soft and manageable and not at all greasy looking, which I was absolutely thrilled about! And while the YTMN shampoo is for my step-son I use it on Gaige (who is almost 2) every night he comes out with great smelling hair that is soft and looks great! My favorite thing about Totally Texty is the fact that it makes the kids hair smell great!

Buy it!!! You can purchase all of the Totally Texty Products online at TotallyTexty.com.

Now with summer in full swing and smelly hair in it's prime how would you like to try out some of the Totally Texty products? The amazing ladies at Totally Texty are giving one of my readers their choice of either the YTMN (boys shampoo) or the DDG (girls shampoo and conditioner)! Can you say heck yeah!

Win it!!!

It's Day 5 of my Show Dad he's SUPER Giveaway Spectacular and I just have to say thank you to all of you who have entered my previous Father's Day Giveaways! I love being able to find new and exciting products and share them with all of you...it truly makes my day...every day!

Today's giveaway is for all of you hairy dads out there...lol! My fiance is hands down the hairiest man I have ever met. He spends more time shaving than I do! And he is always asking me to help him with the back of his neck which drives me crazy! That's why when I got the chance to review The Swerve I was very quick to accept!

The Swerve is a unique full body groomer that is designed to give you a smooth, clean shave! It's ergonomic design is patent pending and is built to give you the comfort and control to shave in hard to reach areas including the back of your neck and upper body. The Swerve contains a triple-action blade and lubricating strip which glides oh so smoothly over the contours of your body.

I have to admit that my fiance was a little leery of The Swerve when I first showed it to him (he's a typical "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" kind of guy). With a little urging and promises of getting him something really special for Father's Day he tried it...and was impressed at how well it handled and how smooth his skin was after shaving (he should listen to me more often). Of course I would be the biggest liar ever if I told you I didn't try The Swerve as well because you know I did (for whatever reason we just can not resist men's razors). I was also very impressed by how smooth my skin was after shaving and at how effortlessly The Swerve seem to glide over my legs! This is a gift that any Dad (or mom) would love!



Since the people at The Swerve are so totally awesome they are giving one Misadventures in Baby Raising reader the chance to try The Swerve! One winner will receive a Triple Pack of The Swerve...I'm jealous!

Well it's day 3 of my Show Dad he's SUPER Giveaway Spectacular and this one is for all the new Dad's out there...oh alright and the old pros too! I hope you all had the chance to check out my cufflinks.com and Cooperstown Cookie Company giveaways because they seriously rock! On to the giveaway!

I don't know how your significant other feels about carrying a diaper bag, but mine refuses! He'll gather everything he needs for the kids (and we have two babies so it's quite a bit) and carry it all in his arms...can you say silly! Well I was browsing around different blogs when I saw the Daddy Diaper Changing Toolbox and laughed my butt of because it is so what Dad's like him need and for those of you who have never heard of the Daddy Diaper Changing Toolbox let me give you the lowdown. The Toolbox comes complete with everything needed for a diaper change including;

  • Mask --toxic fume filter for when it doesn't smell like roses.
  • Goggles --for protection against your own mini version of Old Faithful.
  • Patent Pending Poop Poncho --need we say more???
  • Tongs --Several inches of steel separation between you and the little warm wrapped gift.
  • Turkey Baster --for precision hiney washing.
  • Ear/Nose Plugs --use with care.
  • Pacifier -- scream plug.
  • Baby Wipes -- for cleaning baby bottom and various parts.
  • Diaper for newborn -- cute as a kitten until it gets wet then it looks and smells like a sewer rat.
  • Bio Hazard bag and rubber gloves --for quarantine containment of the nuclear meltdown.
  • Emergency Formula Container-- doubles as a PeePee cover for WeeWee.
  • Hand Wipes-- to clean up afterward. (For Dad's use only).
  • Picture Frame -- this is your badge of honor.
How completely hilarious is that? Everything a new Dad (or Dad-to-Be) needs to survive his first diaper change with memories (and lots of laughs) to last a lifetime! How funny would this be to give as a gag gift for a baby shower? And of course no diaper changing pro (and that's completely dependent on said Dad's willingness to even tackle the job again) would be complete without this silly bumper sticker for his Dadmobile which can pick up on Gifts For Dads To Be for only $2! And if you order the Daddy Diaper Changing Toolbox from Fun Stuff 4 Babies then you receive free shipping on your entire order!



Additionally the Daddy Diaper Changing Toolbox creators Julie and Chris would love to be on the Ellen Show to show off their awesome gift idea for dads how cool would that be? So if you think the Daddy Diaper Changing Toolbox is as unique, creative, and awesome as I do then please go here and tell Ellen that we want to see Julie and Chris on her show!

It's Day 2 of my Show Dad he's SUPER Father's Day Giveaway Spectacular (say that 3 times fast). I hope you all had a chance to check out the great cufflinks for Dad in Day 1 of my Father's Day giveaways! Now on to more great giveaways for Dad!

If the man in your life is like the main man in mine then he loves sports! Every Father's Day I struggle to find my fiance something that is unique, fun, and fits his personality and every Father's Day it gets harder and harder to find the perfect gift. If you have this problem no worries I have the coolest Father's Day gift ever for all of the sports obsessed Dads out there!

When I first heard of the Cooperstown Cookie Company I thought that it was the coolest gift idea ever! But before I tell you how much I love them let me tell you a little bit about them. The Cooperstown Cookie Company hit a home run when they debuted their Classic Baseball Shortbread at the World Series Gala at the National Baseball Hall of Fame in October of 2004. Their cookies have been featured on the Food Network's show Unwrapped as well as being named the "Snack of the Day" on the Rachel Ray show! The company was founded by Pati Grady who is also the president and the original recipe (still in use today) was inspired by Grady's own family recipe. In addition to the Classic Baseball Shortbread the Cooperstown Cookie Company also offers Boys of Summer Lemon Shortbread , and Mudville Mudball Chocolate Chip cookies to tempt your baseball lovers sweet tooth. Aside from their awesome cookies the Cooperstown Cookie Company also works hard to give back to the community! Their products are made in cooperation with Pathfinder Village, which is a residential community for adults and children with Down Syndrome and a place "where each life may find meaning". The Cooperstown Cookie Company also teamed up with the National Baseball Hall of Fame to create a line of baseball gifts called, "Baseball...Anyone Can Play" all of the gifts promote the universal appeal of the game of baseball and all profits from the T-shirts and mugs which feature the amazing artwork of Lonni Sue Johnson benefit Pathfinder Village...I told you this company was awesome!
Now on to my favorite part...the cookies! We received the Celebration Cookie Tower (pictured above) , which is just one of many gift options, emblazoned with our favorite teams logo (Go Reds!). We are huge baseball fans in my house and any excuse we can find to talk about (or in this case eat) baseball we are all over it! First I have to tell you that the cookie tower was so adorable that I almost didn't want to unwrap it...almost! I envisioned sending every Dad I know cookie towers for Father's Day...seriously they are that impressive! The cookies were of course just as impressive as the tower itself, my personal favorite was the Boys of Summer Lemon Shortbread (yummy). The baseball cookies are baked by hand (which is undoubtedly what makes them so great) and the Boys of Summer Lemon and Classic Shortbread varieties are made using all natural ingredients the cookies are also made in the USA just minutes from Cooperstown! If you are looking for a fun, unique, and yummy gift for the man in your life this Father's Day then you should definitely check out Cooperstown Cookie Company!





How would you like to win an awesome cookie tower from Cooperstown Cookie Company?
