Smart Planet Review (holiday gift guide)




During the holidays it seem like there is not enough hours in the day. It seems like I spend a lot of time in the kitchen and it seems like I am always cleaning up and washing dishes. Especially during the holiday season. I was very excited when I came across Smart Planet product collapsible eco salad bowl.

I will have to admit I come across many new products, but I have never come to a product quite like this before. This is a product of my dreams. I also like how Smart Plant is an internationally reowned source of innovative and eco friendly.

Collapsible Deluxe Salad BowlThe product that I received for review their collapsible eco salad bowl. This salad bowl contains a silicone base. Which makes it microwave and dishwasher safe. Which is a must in our household. I usually stay away from products that are not microwave or dishwasher safe. It come with a topping tray, dressing container and reusable spork that you will find in side. I love how all these items fit inside of the main bowl. Easy storage which is great and the bowl collapses, so it is very easy to store and does not take up a lot of room. 

At first I thought this product was very small, but to my surprise it expands and it doubles it size. I could not believe this. It was pretty cool. If you want it to expand you just pull up and it is just that simple. No fighting with this product. 

What is my biggest issue with a salad bowl is that my old one is to big at times to fit in the refrigerator. This product is if you need to store it in the fridge you have to lightly push on the top and let it collapse. It will let you save space and help you fit it in your fridge. 

You can bring this product any where you want. For example in your home, parties, friends, picnic, work and ect. I would highly recommend this product for your home. It helps my family out a lot and helps take up less space. It one of our new favorite products. You can find their product at their site below.

Hammacher Schlemer Review

Hammacher Schlemer is one of my favorite companies. When I entered the site online it was very class and easy to navigate through. When I entered their site I noticed a saying underneath there name it said "Offering the Best, The Only, and The Unexpected since 1848. At first when I read that I thought to my self I doubt that. This was before I looked through the site and delt with the company. Boy was I wrong They have so many different products. I could not believe how many items that I never seen before. There where more items that I was not familiar with than I was familiar with. Which shocked me. They have a great variety of products and have something for everyone. Young children, children, teens, young adults, adults and elders. What a site that can incorparate almost every age group and gender. This is my kind of site.
Before i start sharing what I got to review from this wonderful company.


 I wanted to share a quote that was on there site that I thought was very important.
 

“To enhance our customers’ lives by bringing them unique products that either solve problems or further their lifestyle, and eliminate their need to comparison shop by providing them with, not only the best products in the marketplace, but the information supporting the reasons why these products are truly the best.”

I had the chance to review their Carrera Slot Car Race Set. I remember as a child playing wit my brothers slot car set for hours and hours. This bring back many good memories. Recently I have been on a search to find a great slot car set, but was not able to find a decent one. I came across a wonderful, durable and greaty quality slot car set on Hammacher Schlemer site. This slot car set is made by Carrera. Carrera is one of the best slot car makers since 1963. You will only find this set available at Hammacher Schlemer and this set retails for about 119 dollars. This set was amazing!! When we opened up this set the track is about 
29 1/2'. I love how this set offers two loops. Honestly that is my favorite part of racing is going through the loops. This set also has two lane changes, a flyover, and 180 high bank curved. I have had a problem with the other sets that the cars do not stay on the track well. I was impressed with the cars that come with this set. They are designed to have double contact brush that provides a secure connection to the track. I would say overall this is the best slot car racing set that I have found. If you are looking or a great set I would definitely invest in this set, you will not be disappointed. I will guarantee hours and hours of fun on Christmas.

You can find many great items for your holiday season at Hammacher Schlemer online. Click the link below to visit their site.

If you are looking for that special sport gift for that sport fanatic in your family. SportsDirect.com is the perfect company for you this holiday season. SportDirect.com let me a review one of their kid product for my Holiday Gift Guide Review. I chose to review their Edco Play Too Bench. My son recently started getting into building things and starting become curious with tools. Although at the moment he is way to young to play with real tools this play set is the perfect gift for him at the moment. The Edco Play Tool Bench is great for girls and boys both. This work bench is 68 cm tall and 44 cm wide. This set also comes with 54 pieces. I was surprised when this play set arrived and it had 54 pieces. This set includes tools such as saw, hammer drill screwdriver, drill, clamp and so much more. 

At first I was not sure about the quality of this play set. At times when products come from different countries, I am not sure if they are durable or great quality. I was amazed on how well this play set was assembled. It is sturdy and durable. It is also very easy to set up. The pieces go very well with the play set. I would highly recommend this Tool Bench for your little build for Christmas. You can find their site below.

Sister Gourmet Review

Are you looking for something unique for Christmas? Do you loving baking or someone in your family love baking? You should check out Sister's Gourmet. They are a great company that puts that special touch to gourmet baking mixes. Great idea for the holiday season.

I received two of their Gourmet Baking Mixes for review. I received double chocolate oatmeal cookie mix and cinnamon snowflake cookie mix. When I received Sister Gourmet I was impressed how they where packed. They where very well packed and kept safe through shipping. After unwrapping I was impressed on how cute they looked. When it comes to the holidays I do not know about you, but I am always running out of time. With Sister's Gourmet cooking mixes they have all the dry ingredients all ready for you in a mason jar.

Both jars had all the ingredients except for eggs, real butter and vanilla. I had to get those out for the recipe. Which is not bad at all. Sister's Gourmet commitment to you is that they offer you the highest quality ingredients in their baking mixes.

Both mixes came in a mason jar which had layers of ingredients that made up that specific cookie. The top of the jar had special holiday wrapping paper tied with a nice bow. The bow had an ingredient and recipe card attached to the bow.

When I made the holiday cookies from my mixes, I will have to admit that the ingredients mixed well. It also saved a lot of time getting all the ingredients together. The only ingredients I had to supply was real butter, eggs and vanilla. It was simple pre-heat the over and mix the ingredients and put on the cookie sheet and bake. 

I was pretty impressed with the taste of the cookies they were homemade. I shared them with the family and they thought I spent hours making them. They where surprised when I let them know I received the mix from Sister's Gourmet and they where all ready to go. They have a variety of mixes and all ready to be shipped out in time for the holidays.

BeginAgain Toys Review



I was introduced to a wonderful toy company called BeginAgain Toys. BeginAgain Toys great company which their toys create imagination and creativity. One great thing that I love about toys is that they do not require batteries. BeginAgain Toys was created in Fort Collins, Colorado by Benjamin Barlowe. The inspiration came from his grandchildren. 


When we were browsing on BeginAgain Toys we were amazed on the creativity of each toy. We chose to review Dinosaur A to Z puzzle. The reason why I choose this product is that my children love learning their ABC an also figuring out puzzles. When I saw this product I thought this would be a great educational toy in helping children learning their ABC. It also helped that my children love Dinosaurs also. This Puzzle retails for $32.00. When we received the puzzle it was packaged with great care. It also came in a wood box to keep the puzzle safe. This puzzles is 26 pieces and the puzzles is a Stegosaurus. What I thought about this puzzle that sets other puzzles apart. One side teaches lower case and if you flip the sides it will teach the upper case letters. The puzzle Dinosaur is beautifully painted with beautiful colors. Do not worry this product is made from Natural Rubber wood an is stained with safe stains. 

My overall thoughts of Dinosaur Puzzle is that is a great educational toy for the upcoming Holiday Shopping season. The puzzle is smooth and their is not any rough edges. The pieces go together very well and does not come apart easily. This would be a great product or preschoolers and fun. The bright colors and the abcs will help them learn the abcs and the order they go in. You will be able to find their products here or Christmas.

Mini 4 Wheel Carving Scooter Review

 Are you looking for the perfect scooter for your child for Christmas? Well I happy to tell you that Fuzion has a great selection of scooters. I was able to review their Mini 4 Wheel Carving Scooter for my Holiday Gift Guide this year.
 
We had one excited boy when we opened up the box. We received a Mini 4 Wheel Carving Scooter that is recommended for ages 6 and up. When we took it out of the box it was very easy to assemble. If I can do it anyone can do it. The frame of the scooter is made out of steel. The product weighs about 8.8 ibs. There is a weight limit for this product and that is 130 pounds. When we put this product all together my son was eager to test it out. 

The one thing that I noticed that my son struggled a little bit with the scooter, because there was four wheels. It took a little bit of time to get used to the scooter, but he did. In my personal opinion I would have a kid who has some basic knowledge of a scooter to ride on this product. The benefit of having a lightweight frame so it can be ridden anywhere from hills to flat ground. What is great about this product. This product has unique dual pivot steering technology controlled by both leaning the deck or turning the handle bars. The Mini 4 Wheel Carving Scooter has the following features
 
  • Adjustable Handlebar Height
  • Wide Plastic Deck
  • Fuzion PU Wheels
  • Rear Foot Brake
  • Foam Comfort Grips
  • Stable riding surface 
I really like the scooter for several reasons. My son has a lot of fun with it and tries to come up with new tricks. I love the deck of the scooter because it wide enough for him to stand on it and it hold his weight. The deck is shaped a little different from a normal scooter. I am also a fan that you can adjust the handlebar for the correct height. The one problem with other scooters that we have faced before is that the handle bars at times can hurt my son hands. With this scooter they have foam comfort grips which do not put a lot of pressure on my son hands. He is able to spend more time on his scooter because of this feature. 

Overall my opinion of this scooter is great. My son seemed to have a great time he zoomed everywhere. He spent hours trying to figure out how to do more stuff on the scooter. If you are looking to get your child a scooter for the holidays. I would check out the Mini 4 Wheel Carving Scooter.

You can find this product down below.

RoboMe Review (holiday gift guide)

Are you looking for something amazing to get you child for Christmas? WowWee introduces their newest product RoboMe. RoboMe is the perfect holiday gift for tech and robotic fans. RoboMe can be used my children and adults. RoboMe was created to blend personality and technology together at last. RoboMe is a completely customization robotic buddy that uses the power of your iPhone.
When I received my RoboMe I was totally blown away. When I saw the RoboMe online I thought it was pretty cool, but I did not expect it to be like this. I thought it would be a lot smaller than it is. It pretty decent size. A lot bigger that what I originally thought. RoboMe does require a iPhone product to operate. You will need to download the app, after is all set up on your phone place it where the head of the robot is. There is a special location where it will fit your phone and protect it from getting damaged. One of my biggest worries that is my phone is going to get damaged. Well it fits nice and does not get loose easily. RoboMe is packed with advanced technology for example: voice command recognition, remote video control, and facial tracking. RoboMe has a fully customized personality, voice recognition, and speech synthesis. The remote video control via Robo Eye Merge, face detection and tracking.
When we tested RoboMe we were very amazed on how this product work. I have never seen anything like this before. It very easy to navigate, so children will not become to frustrated with it. Everyone will have a fun time playing with RoboMe. The only negative thing about putting it together is it took a little bit over an hour and my son kept asking me is it ready yet mom? The only concern that I had about this product is will it break easy? Sometimes with boys you know how they can be with toys a little rough. Well moms I can safely say this toy can handle a little roughness. When our RoboMe fell over there was no scuff, break or any damage to it. Guilty as charged I also hit a few walls. I was amazed that there was no damage what so ever. 
Overall I would highly recommend this toy for Christmas. I believe that it is going to be very popular. My son had a great time having the robot perform tricks, having the robot talk to him and telling the robot what to do. There is so much you can do with this toy and spend hours and hours playing with it. Watch out parents this is one of those toys you do not want your children catching you playing with!. You can buy this at WowWee website or at your local toys r us.

Lavanilla Perfume review

Lavanila offers a variety of different product, but I have fallen in love with their fragrances. I wanted to share a little bit of background about Lavanila. When I found out the meaning behind Lavanila I thought it was very interesting. The most universally loved fragrance is the flavor of the vanilla in its purest, freshest form has captivated Danielle Raynor. Danielle Raynor is the founder of Lavanila. When Danielle Raynor started her journey to create healthy skincare and fragrance products, she discovered that some of the finest vanilla come from Madagascar. Over in Madagascar it is called Lavanila. You will find majority of products that are offered on Lavanila are made with vanilla. The reason why vanilla is an ingredient is because it is rich, sweet, luxurious fragrance and also for it anti oxidant properties. I am sure if when you try Lavanila you will fall in love with their products as much as I did.

For the holidays I was able to review their Vanilla Passion Fruit Fragrance. This perfume come in a 1.7 oz bottle. When I opened the package I was very excited to see what the scent smelled like. This scent tops the other ones that I have received. Although I like them all this one is my favorite as of now. Vanilla Passion fruit is a Tropical Scent of Temptation. This perfume is a crisp, tropical explosion of Passion Fruit, Guava and Peach Nectar seeped in warm base of sandalwood and Madagascar Vanilla. This scent has a nice blend of vanilla and fruit fragrance that is well balanced and smell great. The perfume is not weak nor over powerful. I only have to spritz one spritz for it to last for the whole afternoon. I would highly recommend this product.

You can find all of Lavanilla product at their website. This would make great holiday gifts!

Zing Air Storm Z-Tek Bow Review

This fall Zing Brand Toys are bringing you the most innovative, high performance product for kids. This Christmas instead of giving your child a video game consider getting them one of many Zing Brand Products. One thing I like about their products is that their products will get children up and moving. My five year old has been asking me for a bow for quite some time. Although he is way to young in my mind to own or have a real bow. I came to a compromise when I saw what Zing has to offer. They have bows that can help younger children learn the concept of the bow and how to shoot without getting hurt.

I was excited that I was able to review Zing Air Storm Z Tek Bow. This toy is recommend for ages 8 and up. The retail price is suggested at 19.99. The Air Storm Z-Tek Bow is considered the next generation archery toy from Zing. I will agree that this product is parent approved. What I like about this product is that the foam bow and arrow. What is really amazing about this product is that it come with several arrows. There is a place where you can store the arrows on the bow when you are not using them. Which is great so you do not lose them. The bungee cords that are attached to the bow can deliver a great launching experience for your child when they get the hang of it. They can launch over 100 feet. Which my son will have to practice to get the hang of that. 

Parents you do not have to worry about this product shooting anything but the arrows that it comes with. Overall this is amazing fun new product. Do not tell my son that I think I may just have more fun with his new toy. It fun where families can get together and having a contest of how many targets you can shoot. When my son is plays with the Zing Air Storm Z Tek Bow. My father and I get in more trouble than my son does. If you are looking for a great gift for your child this year. I would look into investing in a Zing Air Storm Z Tek Bow.

You can find Zing Air Storm Z Tek Bow or their other products on their website.

Glitter Pets Review

I wanted to introduce a new site called Artsi. Artsi has three different brands of products. There different brands are called Glitter Petz, Stickeez and Plusheez. If are trying to find the perfect Christmas gift for your daughter I would recommend stopping at Artsi. If your daughter loves crafts than you can not go wrong.

When I had the opportunity to review Glitter Petz. I was able to review two of their adorable pets. I was sent Sadie the purple cat and Sunny the blue squirrel. Each pet is about two inches tall. My daughters eye lit up when she saw her new friends. When I first saw this I knew my daughter would love putting the gems on her new friend. I would recommend this toy for 4 or 5 and up.
