Innovations For Modern Parents {Boon Giveaway} CLOSED

Who is Boon?

It’s funny how such a simple thing can lead to so much. It all began with a messy toddler bathtub. Designer Rebecca Finell’s wheels started turning and the Frog Pod was born.

But the problem solving didn’t stop there. She had lots of ideas for other parenting innovations so she sought out a partner, Ryan Fernandez—who could create a successful business—and together they founded Boon Inc. Today Boon offers a wide range of products that help parents all over the world.

We’re committed to creating nothing but the most innovative gear—and keeping it affordable. Our design studio is always in motion, tackling one parenting challenge after another. And don’t forget our commitment to quality and safety. Call us if you have any questions. We want you to be thrilled with our products! Plus, we like hearing from you.

We had the opportunity to try out four different products from Boon:

Potty Bench

This potty bench is perfect for training your little one to use the potty. It features two side storage spaces perfect for toilet paper and moist wipes. It also features a toilet paper roll holder too in one of the drawers. The pull out drawer is excellent for easy clean up for mom and dad after your little one uses it. It also doubles as a step stool when you close the lid, so your little one can use it for brushing their teeth and washing there hands at the sink. I love the design and it fits in perfectly in our bathroom. I highly recommend this potty chair if you are potty training or will be soon

Flo child faucet cover

C Are you ever a nervous nelly when your little one is bathing? I get so nervous about the faucet. I am so afraid of the kids bumping their heads on it and getting hurt. So when I received this Flo faucet cover I immediately put it on. It is perfect for keeping my little ones safe, and they think it is so much fun. It sprays out the water like a waterfall when we fill the bath and it even has a bubble bath dispenser built into it. Perfect for your little ones.

Fluid Toddler Cup

This toddler cup is one of a kind. It features a ergonomic, two handed grip that is perfect for your little kiddos hands. My little guy loves it. He doesn’t have to tip his head back as far to drink and he can keep a hold of it all day. It is such a fun color and definitely keeps him interested in using a cup instead of a bottle.

Catch bowl

This Catch Bowl is a must-have item for any mom and child. When my little one was learning to eat I wish I had had it. The built in food catcher extends toward the child helping the run away food stay in the bowl. No more big messes and great training for the little eater. Plus it has suction cups on the bottom of it to keep it where you want it!

I am always happy to support companies that give back and Boon does just that!

Even Princesses and Pirates Gotta Go Sometime! {Scholastic Princess Potty and Pirate Potty Book Giveaway} CLOSED

PrincessPottyBook PiratePottyBook

“Here-Ye, Here-Ye, I have to go Pee-Pee!” says the Princess.

“Fi-diddle-de-doo, I’ve got to make a Poo-Poo!” says the Pirate.

Princess Potty and Pirate Potty are two books from Scholastic provide a helpful, step-by-step story that introduces girls & boys to the concept of toilet training. Pirate Potty is a pirate-themed, toilet-training book that is fit for the little swashbuckler in your life! The book includes a pirate’s hat and reward stickers! Princess Potty follows the same theme…a toilet-training book that is fit for the Royal Highness in your life! This book includes a tiara and reward stickers!

PiratePrincesPottyBook_Inside

Do you have a Princess or Pirate who’s getting ready to use the potty soon? I’ve had two rather reluctant Princesses on my hands! But now that they’re finally showing some signs of readiness, it’s the perfect time for me to introduce some potty training books for them to read on the subject. They loved Princess Potty. Their favorite parts of the book are the songs that the Princess sings when she’s ready to go and while she’s going, especially “Do rei me fa so, I’ll wait until I go!” When they ask me to sing something over and over again, it’s a sure sign that they love it.

Princess Potty has certainly made the concept of going #1 and #2 in the potty a lot more appealing and will be a source of encouragement as they meet this next milestone.

Five (5) Real Moms Real Views readers will each receive…

tales of training…

IMG_8218 We have never pushed my 2 1/2 year old daughter into her milestones…we give her all the necessary tools, try to help her along, but sort of just let them occur on their own. That’s how they all have happened, on their own. I guess I sort of expected potty training to be the same way {i can already hear the smirks!}. We got her a fun girly little potty insert for Christmas to transform the toilet into her own little princess potty. Now, when I say Christmas, I mean last Christmas…yes, December 2008. We sat her on it, read her books on it, sang songs on it, even painted her nails on it! We have watched movies and read a bajillion potty books. She occasionally uses it, mostly when we “catch her in the act”, you know, hiding under her art table her face turning several shades of red. Sometimes we just ask her if she wants to sit on the potty, mostly her response is “no”, but we sit on it anyway, in hopes that something will happen and she will start to connect the dots. Now, she’s a smart girl. She will potty in her diaper and then bring me a clean one…so I know she is aware of what is going on and if she can bring me a diaper after she’s taken care of business, I think she should be perfectly capable of telling me before she needs to go. I know a lot of times she doesn’t want to stop playing to go to the bathroom, which I think is a pretty normal toddler response, but I am just sort of wondering what step to take next. We have tried the panties for a day, taking her potty every 15 minutes. She usually went after we sat on the potty and then I was cleaning up messes all day long. She really doesn’t mind her diaper being wet, or panties for that matter. Doesn’t bother her much. I have even stooped to bribery; with candy, princess panties, special prizes, stickers, even lip gloss! {right now we have a pez bear, which we call “the potty bear” and when she goes she gets three pez candies out of it.} We clap, cheer, tell her how proud of her we are, all that when she potties. What are we doing wrong? I have come to realize that this is not a milestone that is just going to “happen.” I think mommy and daddy are really going to have to work for this one! I would love any advice, tips, funny stories, whatever you can give me to get this girl going on the potty…really, I will try almost anything!!!
