Somewhere to rest your head





The perfect pillow for your little one. Think naps, bedtime, travel. Just because it says toddler doesn't mean you can't use for taking a quick snooze.

My daughter likes that she can take this in the car with us, she often falls asleep even on short drives to the grocery store so this comes in handy.

I love that the cover is made from 100% organic cotton and is made in the USA, that makes me feel good.

Wash after wash it stays clump free which is near impossible to find in a pillow. Now if the company will start to make grown up pillows I would be in heaven.

You can purchase the Calla Toddler Pillow on Amazon.


What Calla Creative has to say about their product.

Best Washable Pillow for Toddlers, Covered in Soft Organic Cotton. Perfect for parents of toddlers who care about their children's health, supporting local businesses and who buy organic because of all the advantages like guaranteed no pesticides, chemicals or flame retardants. 

Founded by parents in 2014, Calla Creative set out to solve a frustrating problem in the children's bedding market.

We needed a pillow that is washable. We'd heard stories from our friends about accidents, potty training, getting sick and all the other ways a kid needed a different pillow than we were able to find. 

With all the time our daughter would spend next to her pillow, we also wanted a pillow that was guaranteed to have no flame retardant chemicals. Organic cotton is more durable, softer, Non-GMO, and Pesticide/Herbicide/Insecticides/Fungicide free. 

So we set out on our journey to craft an ideal pillow for her. 

We use a special kind of filling called CallaFill that's engineered to not clump or go flat after washed. It's Hypoallergenic and the best filling for toddlers bedding.

One thing that sets our company apart from the "big guys" is that we offer a 3 year "Out-grow-it" Guarantee. It will last through many washes, story-times, dreams and puddles-of-drool. If for any reason your not happy with it, send us an email and we'll make it right. We love spending money with companies that really take care of their customers (like Nordstrom, Buy-Buy Baby, Bed Bath and Beyond and Target) and we aim to provide the same level of customer experience and satisfaction.

Harry the Bunny


To be honest I had no idea who Harry the Bunny was but when I clicked on the link to the site, I heard a familiar song and sure enough he is from this show. Must be a show the kids watch and I just picked up on the song from the show. 
Harry the Bunny is cute, soft, and stars in his own TV show.  He is great as a go along friend while your child is watching the TV show or away from the TV having their own adventures. Just right for your toddler or preschooler. My 7 year old enjoys him just as much as my 4 year old granddaughter.

You can purchase Harry the Bunny on Amazon.

What a great product to add to your emergency kits for each member of your family. We all want clean water to drink but we all know it is getting harder and harder to find.

Great for hikers, survivalists, campers, and for emergency situations.

There are lots of sites that list emergency preparation kits and I don't think I have ever seen this on one before.

Training your puppy or adult dog







We had a great dog whistle but because of it being so little we lost it, with this dog whistle from Pet Vitalix, I don't have to worry about losing it because it comes with a lanyard.

I also like that it comes with a Pet ID-tag that just in case my dog gets loose someone will be able to get her back to me safe and sound.


I also love how it comes with an instruction guide. We even learned a few new things reading this.

It is never to late to teach an old dog new tricks.



You can purchase the Pet Vitalix Dog Whistle on Amazon.

Kitchen peelers



Having a peeler handy can really help out with food preparation. If you have children helping out this kind of peeler is much easier to use then a paring knife.

I think all of my children started with a peeler just like this, minus the sharp spike which is great to use to crack eggs open by the way.

I usually just crack my eggs in one hand while baking, but my children are still learning and this helps them out greatly in cracking eggs.

Love that this is easy to clean and store. We keep our peelers right in our utensil turntable on the counter for easy access.



You can purchase the SIWU Vegetable and Fruit peeler on Amazon.

What SIWU has to say abou their product.

Ergonomically designed handle has a pleasing heft in your hand and is constructed of durable metal with a brushed satin finish.Streamlined profile adds a contemporary touch to your kitchen décor. Weighs a solid 2.6 ounces and measures a little over 6 inches long. Cutting blade measures 1.75 inches across

Unlike other peelers, the ultra sharp stainless steel cutting blade is mounted in metal (not plastic) for long-lasting durability. Nonslip black plastic ribbing on the top of handle gives you a firm grip for professional-style peeling. The blade is positioned perpendicular to the handle to make the most efficient slicing motion. So you can julienne and peel like the pros!

It's super easy to cut eyes out of a potato with the handy micro triangular knife point on the side of the peeler. You can also use it to knick the rinds of oranges, lemons, and other citrus fruits for easy peeling.
Peel vegetables and fruits with remarkable ease to cut down on your preparation time so you can focus on creating fabulous, tasty, healthy meals. Dishwasher safe for easy clean up.
