Back to School Giveaway Event: @ECOVESSEL #Giveaway
It is great to strive and become more eco-friendly. However, in some areas it can a little hard. One of my struggles has been finding a reusable water bottle that keeps my drinks iced and cold for longer than 1 hour at a time. So many of them just do not keep my drinks cold. When I find one that works, well, I cannot help but tell everyone about and let me tell ya…Eco Vessel rocks! I was sent a Summit Insulated Stainless Steel Straw Bottle (17 oz.). “The Eco Vessel Insulated Straw Bottle is the perfect bottle for those of you constantly on the go. Like our other bottles, this Eco Vessel will keep your beverages cold for hours. The new straw top makes drinking easier so you can drink from the bottle without unscrewing the cap or tipping the bottle...

My boys are always ready for a snack. This is especially true once school starts. The first words out of their mouths when they walk in the door are “Can we have a snack??”. So, I was happy to try out Funky Monkey Snacks. These snacks are made from full fresh slices and pieces of freeze-dried fruit. I love that the snacks are healthy and my kids love that they are delicious! They have no added colors, flavors, sugars, or preservatives and they’re also gluten-free, certified Kosher, and certified non-GMO. We were sent a sampler pack to try out. We tried the Pink Pineapple first. It was SO good! It did make my 4-year old pucker up a little but he loved them! Th Carnival Mix was a big hit as well. It has freeze-dried organic banana, apple,...

We go through a lot of baggies when we pack lunches. With 3 kids in school right now, it adds up quickly. Not only can this be expensive, but I also hate all the plastic trash it adds to the landfills. ReUsies are the perfect solution! They’re the re-usable alternative to sandwich/snack bags. ReUsies are 100% cotton lined with leak-resistant nylon and are secured with Velcro® closures. ReUsies come in 2 sizes, sandwich and snack. They have many different patterns and colors to choose from. I was sent the soccer ball ReUsies. The bags are really well made. The cotton seems like it will hold up really well and the nylon lining is easy to clean. ReUsies can be machine washed and dried, washed in the dishwasher, or for longest life simply wiped clean with a...

My kids eat the school lunch at times and like to take it at other times. On the days they pack, I try to make sure it’s something tasty as well as nutritious. GoPicnic makes it easy! They provide a wide variety of nutritious ready-to-eat meals. All of their meals contain no trans fats, no high fructose corn syrup, no MSG, and no artificial flavors and colors. Many of their meals are also gluten free (make sure to check the ingredients label to see which ones are included). These pre-packaged meals are SO much better than the lunchables my kids are always begging for, both in taste and nutrition. They have combos such as Turkey Pepperoni + Cheese, Hickory Farms Beef, Cheese & Crackers, Sunbutter + Crackers, and Peanut Butter + Crackers, just to...

Part of the school year is packing lunches and making sure you have snacks handy when the kids get home from school. I don’t know what time your kids eat lunch at school but our girls are eating at 11. When they get home at 3:30 they are hungry and ready for a snack. We have a pretty hard and fast rule that before you go out and play you have a snack and get your homework done. Then the rest of the evening is open to fun and games! But finding the right snacks can be hard. I love giving our kids Annie’s products for their lunches or for an after school snack. I was sent some of their bunny crackers and fruit snacks. All three kids really enjoyed these! The bunny crackers are especially nice for our toddler. The crackers are just the right size for...

If you like Bento boxes, flat rate shipping and all things eco-friendly, then stay tuned for an awesome review and giveaway from Laptop Lunches. I have heard all about Bento boxes but have never owned one before. Laptop Lunches allowed me to select one of their boxes to try out. I tried the Black/Avo. It just so happened my oldest daughter had a day camp to attend and I was able to pack her a lunch. This was my first ever attempt at a Bento lunch. I packed her some spinach, crunchy noodles for topping, a small treat and then packed some mandarin oranges and blackberries. I was able to use the skinny compartment on the right side for a small fork and a cloth napkin. I was so pleased with how it turned out! I realize my meal was probably not a typical Bento meal...

My absolute favorite place for kids shoes is Umi Children’s Shoes! They have a great selection, amazing quality and some awesome customer service to boot. All 3 of our kids have Umi shoes and wear them proudly. Knowing that the start of school is just around the corner, I knew we wanted Umi shoes for our kids again. Umi graciously sent me a pair for our daughters and a pair for our toddler son. For our daughters we received the Payce in Black. I love the cute flower on the side. One of the main reasons we love Umi, is the comfort it offers our kids. The strap on the Payce is a soft elastic. It did not leave any mark of her skin, did not pinch and has plenty of stretch to it. Not ONCE have any of our kids gotten a red mark or blister from their Umi shoes....
