EZ Sox Review and Giveaway: You and your kids will love these!

I was so excited to review these training socks. Sissy is great at putting her shoes on, although they may not be on the right feet, but she can't do socks. I was hopeful that EZ Sox, with their pull-up loops, would make it easier for her to do.
As soon as they came, I gave them to her to try. She refused to use them. She told me I bought her boy socks (they were tan). I was so disappointed that she wouldn't try them. Over the next couple of weeks I would break them out with no luck. I was just about to give up and order them in pink, when my husband decided to try. Wouldn't you know it, daddy's girl immediately put them on, with no help at all. She just grabbed the loops and pulled them right on. She loved them. For 3 days straight, she wore her "bear socks", putting them on by herself each time. (She would still be wearing them if I hadn't hidden them in the hamper.) She does still struggle a little with getting them facing the right direction, but the animal faces on the socks help with that. We just told her that the bear's face needs to be on top.
I really think that after she uses these a few more times, she will be able to figure out her regular socks. However, I know she'll still struggle with regular socks compared to these. They really are EZ!



If you have a little one that is trying to learn to put their socks on, look into EZ Sox. They have 9 different animals, as well as solid colors. There is something that will make every little one happy, even picky ones like mine! Like them on Facebook or follow them on Twitter for special deals.

I've been loving this website...

Have you checked out nobetterdeal.com yet? I have been loving this website. They sell new, refurb and open box items. I haven't heard any complaints yet and everyone reports their open box items to be new. Many of the prices are 50% off and shipping is usually about $3. Right now they have a Leapster Explorer for $35. I also found the Cuisinart Panini Press that I paid $50 for refurbished somewhere else, for only $36 (open box). The only problem is that everything sells out fast. There were a few items I decided to think about. They were gone when I went back! New items seem to be added every day.

Alex Little Hands: My Sticker Art Review

I recently had the opportunity to review the Alex Little Hands: My Sticker Art set courtesy of Ebeanstalk.com. I previously reviewed the Ebeanstalk website and I truly loved it. They had the best of the best available. Anyhow, I loved that they had very specific age recommendations for their baby toys and toddler toys.

Ebeanstalk recommends the My Sticker Art set for 24 months. I reviewed this product with my 2 year old. She couldn't have been more thrilled to help mommy with a review! The product arrived at my house just before we were leaving for dinner. Perfect timing! Grandma had come over to watch the kids, so I left the product with Grandma. When I returned home, I had 4 masterpieces framed and waiting for me! Sissy couldn't wait to show me what she had done.

Apparently, Sissy had been busy with the My Sticker Art set a good part of the night. The set comes with 4 different pictures, 4 frames and stickers to match each picture. There was a pizza, a city, a garden and cookies. She loved decorating all of them, but for some reason she really liked the pizza. It had everything you could imagine on it by the time she was done! There were some stickers left when I got home so, of course, she had to decorate some more.

This was a really fun project for us. I am often hesitant to do art projects with little ones because it creates such a mess. This project is nearly mess free. I say nearly, because I did find a few stickers here and there for a few days, but the stickers are repositionable so they weren't terribly stuck to anything. We hung the art projects up, and a week later, she is still admiring her work. What a great way to spend quality time with a 2 year old.

You can order the My Sticker Art set from Ebeanstalk.com. If you are still looking for Christmas gifts, baby gifts or learning toys, I think you would be pleased with the quality products available at Ebeanstalk.com.

Disclosure - Ebeanstalk provided us with My Sticker Art free of charge. No other compensation was received.
