K'nex - Perfect Rainy Day Fun!

Thanks to Team Mom, I was able to connect with K'nex and it couldn't have come at a more perfect time, the day before school was closed due to the November Noreaster. 

We got the word school was closed and A wanted to go straight to work on a design using K'nex.   She went thru the instructions, which is truely not needed because the imagination takes over, and choose the hot air balloon.  This kept her busy for most of the morning!  She was very careful finding the pieces, putting it together, then playing for hours with her ponies as they flew around in the balloon!

The next day, Daddy was called in to help build the creation, the ferris wheel.  Again, this kept them busy for a bit and provided even more time for play after it was done. 

I have nothing bad to say about K'nex.  I just wish I had picked these up on my own earlier.  They would be a great Christmas gift for your own children or any in your life. 

K-nex 400 piece tub Features:

• Made in the USA
• Storage tub (BIG PLUS!)
• Stimulates creativity & curiosity
• Easy snap rods & connectors plus bricks
• Works with other brands like Legos
• Ages 7+
• Great value $20.99
• Available at Target, Wal-mart and Toys R Us

But wait.... There's more!!

Now you have a chance to win $1,000.00 worth of K'NEX Building Sets and be featured on the K'NEX web site.   All you have to do is make a video that showcases your child's K'NEX building skills and features your child building with select K'NEX products.  Be creative, use your imagination, construct your own story - as long as the video features building with K'NEX the possibilities are endless!

The ten best videos will be featured on http://www.knex.com/ and one winning video will receive $1,000.00 work of K'NEX toys.

Contest dates: November 4th - December 7th

Thanks to TeamMom & K'NEX for providing me with the opportunity to review this product.

Consumer Reports Best Baby Products Giveaway - ENDED!

I personally felt breast was best when it came to my daughter however I was thankful that if we ever needed to formula was available to us.  We actually had a can of Target's formula in our pantry "just in case."  So I'm happy to pass on this information to my readers regarding store brand formula , money saving coupons and a great giveaway thanks to Team Mom.

According to the 10th edition Consumer Reports Best Baby Products, store-brand infant formula is as nutritious for babies ans nationally advertised brands.  Moms can save up to 50% by buying store brand! 

Why this is timely news?
As of October, a new WIC program initiative designed to promote breastfeeding reduces infant subsidies by up to 26%; parents who previously had most of their formula paid for by WIC may now have to purchase formula on their own. 

Here's what I can do for you!
