Baby Bunch-Gifts for Mom and Baby: Giveaway

Practical Bouquets

Say It With Baby Bunch Flowers

As a Baby Boomer, I’ve been to many baby showers in my lifetime.  Just as each pregnancy and baby are unique, so are the showers I’ve attended.

Some baby showers are simple affairs – held at home, with just a few munchies out on the table.  Over the years, showers have become more elaborate, some are brunches and luncheons held at the mom-to-be’s favorite restaurant.

When I put together the baby shower for my daughter when she was expecting ‘Lil Moomette, I held a luncheon, and made all the centerpieces out of baby bottles. You can find the directions on my sidebar.

Recently I had the opportunity to let you know about the Baby Bunch. I wish I had known about this when ‘Lil Moomette was on the way!  It’s not only functional, but would have made a beautiful table centerpiece!

Baby Bunch, which has been featured on Martha Stewart, offers refreshingly different baby gift baskets, presented as bouquets, cupcakes and candy. Because they’re made of baby clothes, the gifts are not only practical, but they’re also beautiful!   The baby clothes are arranged into “baby bouquets”, “crayon boxes”, “lollipops” or “cupcakes.”

The company was started by Bryony and Simon Boxer after the birth of the first son:

“The Baby Bunch combines practicality with presentation,” says Bryony Boxer, founder of The Baby Bunch along with her husband Simon Martin. “We wanted to create a gift that was attractive yet useful and offers everything a baby needs to get the best possible start in life.”

I received the Classic medium Baby Bunch, which was presented in a floral gift box with clear lid.  The presentation is so pretty!  The clothing items are all wrapped tightly, to look like flower buds.  Encircling the clothing are green fabric leaves and rosebuds, which can later be saved in a baby book or as keepsake treasures of the occasion!

Inside each “Baby Bunch” are:

• 2 Onesies

• Hat

• T-shirt

• Bib

• 2 Pair Socks

All of the clothing is soft, 100% cotton, and is sized from 0-6 months, up to 16 lbs.  Organic clothing is offered in sizes 6-12 months.

Spring is just around the corner, and there will be plenty of new babies being born!  You’ll find gifts for Mom or Grandmom, as well as unisex gifts, girl gifts and boy gifts.  There’s Free Shipping (twins)! When you order two large buckets!

Baby Bunch is offering email subscribers of Moomette’s Magnificents a 15% discount on any of their products, excluding the cost of shipping through the end of March, 2010.  Please contact me for the Promo Code which I will send to you after you become an email subscriber.

Shi Shu Baby – Handwoven Bamboo Infant Blanket

Boutique Style For Baby

All-Natural Bamboo

Our family has expanded within the last few years, and I have two grandchildren now.  There’s also several weddings coming up, and I’m sure it won’t be too long before I’ll be invited to many baby showers for the expectant mothers-to-be and have found the perfect gift to give.

I recently did a fashion review on how much I like all-natural Bamboo fibers, so I was delighted when I was sent a baby blanket made from cotton and Bamboo from Shi Shu Baby!

Designed by a mom, Shi Shu Baby is a line of blankets made only of natural fibers.

From the company website:

Bamboo is antibacterial, soft as silk, keeps you cool in the Summer, keeps you warm in the Winter and most importantly…BREATHES!

The blanket I received is a beautiful shade of Celedon Green, interwoven with a shade of ecru,  and incredibly soft!  This gorgeous shade of green is suitable for either a baby boy or a baby girl!  I like that the sateen edges are finished, showing the quality of a true boutique product.

Features:

• 60% cotton

• 40% bamboo

• 100% bamboo sateen trim

• Meausres 30″ x 40″

• Handwoven

There’s also a line of baby receiving blanket Snugglers, measuring 16 inches x 16 inches.

Shi Shu Style also makes products for inside the home, including Handwoven throws measuring 50 inches x 60 inches.”

Treat your favorite breastfeeding mom or expectant mother-to-be and baby with this beautiful all-natural blanket!

Fisher Price Laugh & Learn – Fun With Friends Musical Table – Review

Developmental Benefits for Baby

Award Winner

Since my grandson Slugger was born, I’ve found that boys are entirely different than girls when it comes to discovery.  I’ve had two daughters, and my granddaughter ‘Lil Moomette is now three.

Slugger just bulldozes ahead with curiosity.  He’ll play with a toy, or whatever catches his attention until he has it all figured out!

I recently had the opportunity to review the Fisher Price Laugh and Learn Musical Friends Table.

We had a similar, earlier version of this table for ‘Lil Moomette, but found that this version has more activities and  keeps her entertained.  The legs on the Fun With Friends Musical Table are higher than the older version.  Actually, the kids compete to use it!  Slugger will grab the phone, and say “Hello”; or he’ll keep flipping open or closing the storybook pages.

There are four corners of activity to keep the grandkids busy while learning. The table allows toddlers to either sit and play or stand and cruise while learning.

The learning center has flashing lights as well as friendly characters to encourage exploration.

Activities foster and encourages learning of:

• Letters

• Numbers

• Counting

• First words

• Colors, shapes, opposites, animals and more

• Bilingual – in English and Spanish

Musical fun includes sing-along songs, tunes, real instrument sounds and a variety of music styles.

There are several different modes that are accessed through a simple switch.  The Imagination mode brings imitative play to life with real-life sounds, piano keys, phone tones and more.

As a grandmom, I can definitely say that any pre-school, daycare provider, homeschool or mom-to-be would appreciate one of these for a baby shower!

This is a fun, educational toy to put on your holiday shopping list this Christmas season.

By registering at Fisher Price you’ll have an opportunity to download and print an in-store coupon that entitles you to $20 off a $100 purchase of Fisher-Price Laugh & Learn™ and/or Go Baby Go!™ Infant Toys.

Requires 3 AA batteries.

Table measures approx. 18½” W x 18½” L x 15″ H when fully assembled.
Ages: 6-36 months
Product:    M9972
Approx. Retail Price: $45.00

Available at: Fisher Price

Paperspring – Social Stationery Site – Review & Promo Code

Fresh Ideas On Paper

Paperspring

I’m an old-fashioned type of gal and was brought up following Emily Post and the rules of ettiquette.  I was taught by my mom that one should always acknowledge a gift with a handwritten Thank You note.

Whenever I’m a houseguest or attend a dinner party, I always send out a nice note to the hostess acknowledging their kind gestures.  In this modern day of  emails, tweets and text messaging, some things can’t be expressed as when you receive a handwritten note.

I was delighted to have the opportunity to review personalized Thank You  notes from Paperspring.  I received the Tiny Bouquet style, in chocolate brown, with my full name imprinted on the front.   I always try to have several styles of personalized, blank note cards on hand and use them for many occasions.

Paperspring is a new social stationery website that allows personalization of many special occasion cards and announcements. They’ve been in the printing industry for 40 years but just recently launched their new website.  And it’s quite obvious that they love what they do.

The company was started in 1969 and their corporate clients include ESPN, Paramount, and the Westin hotels.  All printing is done in-house, assuring that all orders will process faster and with greater quality control than most anywhere else.

Paperspring offers photo baby announcements, photo birth announcements, photo holiday cards, baby shower invitations, birthday party invitations, baptism invitations, thank you cards, moving announcements, graduation announcements, birth announcements for twins, adoption announcements, photo Christmas cards, wedding invitations, bridal shower invitations and save the date cards.

What I liked best about Paperspring is that it has a Green, eco-friendly policy.  The matte cards are printed on 100% post-consumer waste recycled card stock  Paperspring is one of the few social stationery sites that is certified by the Forest Stewardship Council as a custodian of environmentally sustainable products.

Ordering was easy, and shipped promptly. They offer excellent customer service, high-quality designs and an easy-to use website.

Best of all, Paperspring always offers FREE ground shipping!

Paperspring is offering readers of Moomette’s Magnificents a 20% discount promotional code from now through October 1, 2009.

At checkout, use Code: Moomette20

eebee’s Adventures Childrens DVD – Review and Giveaway

eebes adventures

eebes adventures – make learning fun

This is the summer of … No summer.  We’ve been having so much rain – I really can’t remember anything like this.  Already in Connecticut we’re way above average in the amount of rain that has fallen this July.

For many on vacation at lakes or cottages at the beach, wet weather means that cabin fever is striking.

Whether you’re on vacation, or a stay-at-home mom with toddlers, keeping the kids entertained can pose a challenge.

I’ve recently had the opportunity to review three DVDs from eebes Adventures that provide educational and entertaining material to help you rise to the occasion.

eebee’s adventures are designed to engage you and your baby with rich play experiences that provide powerful lessons that memorizing letters, numbers, colors and shapes simply can and do not.

Watching and, importantly, “doing” eebee’s adventures will allow you and your baby to see and learn first-hand what happens when you explore a crinkly, crunchy, smooth and bumpy paper mountain or roll, bounce, bop, bang, slide and toss your way around a world of balls and ramps.

I received  Figuring Things Out which is just perfect for Slugger, who will be celebrating his First Birthday in August.

Now Slugger already is exhibiting tendencies that are quite different than what I’ve experienced with not only my own daughters, but my granddaughter.  He has new-found motor skills and a curiosity that won’t quit.  I liken him to a monster truck – he bulldozes over and through anything in his way.

When he uses a push toy – he’ll think nothing of picking it up in one hand to turn it around, whereas ‘Lil Moomette would stand there and pout until someone came along to help her.

The childrens dvd video FIGURING THINGS OUT will support his natural curiosity and interest in making things work and achieving goals on his own.

Here’s an interview from Parents TV with the Co-Founder and President Stephen Gass in which he discusses what eebee is all about:

Turning a light on and off, tracking a flashlight’s beam, and exploring the magic of playing with shadows are the focus of The Light Bulb Goes On adventure.

In the video, the Adventures include:

• The Lightbulb Goes On – cause and effect

• Blocks and Tackling Ideas – planning and building

And in On the Go – setting goals, evaluating

• All In a Day’s Play

• Laundry List

• Just You & Me

• Little Objects, Big Ideas

And Exploring Real Stuff:

• Brimming With Ideas

• Out Of the Box

• On A Roll

What I like about these DVDs is that each has been the Winner of a Parents’ Choice Award.

These would make terrific baby shower, new mom, birthday or holiday gifts, as well as an excellent edition to your personal DVD, daycare or homeschool collection.

Meet My Friend: Candy of Lil’ Baby Cakes – Guest Post

Meet My Friend

Lil’ Baby Cakes

I’d like to have you Meet My Friend Candy, a very special mom that I met through the social networking site, Twitter.  Candy, a/k/a @lilbabycakes is a  mom and the Owner/Proprietor of Lil’ Baby Cakes.   I invited Candy to be a Guest Blogger and share with you how she started her business.

In the past, I’ve touched on topics about tapping into your interests and hidden talent, and parlaying them into a career where you turn your interests into  a business.  Many readers or their families have become  victims of the current recession, and are actively seeking gainful employment.  Some, like me, are considering either retiring, or trying to determine a move to another career that will spark our interest – whether it  be something entirely different from what we’ve been doing in the past, or entirely new venture.

Perhaps you are off-ramping from corporate life to take time out to raise your children.

I have been inviting bloggers and writers on my Meet My Friend meme to share their ideas and experiences with my readers who are interested in becoming a mompreneur.

If you have a WAHM topic of interest that you’d like to share and be a Guest Blogger on Moomette’s Magnificents, please contact me (see Contact tab above).

Here Candy shares her story about how she became the Proprietor of Lil’ Baby Cakes – Unique Baby Gifts that new moms adore – The Diaper Cake

Making the decision to leave corporate America after 21 years was one of the most difficult decisions in my life.  Along the way I had daily reminders that I was really not in control of my destiny.  Work pressures weighed on me heavily as I did conference calls late into the evening sitting in bed next to my husband.  I missed many of my kids activities at school as well.  Something had to change and after many weeks if not months of soul searching I started my search to find my next career.

I have always enjoyed making things as a little girl and have always had a knack for decorating and doing crafts.  My next steps were going to take me in that direction.  I made an offer on a business and began the transition after resigning from my corporate job in April 2007.  So far, so good.

Unfortunately, the deal fell through and low and behold I now had nothing!  Believe me I sat up at night questioning myself over and over again.  But with the support of my husband I hung in there and continued to search.  In September 2007 I found Lil’ Baby Cakes and knew I found my “baby“.  We closed in December 2007.

I felt relief and just a sense of calmness knowing I got off the corporate treadmill.  I had time to be with the kids, my husband, and friends.  I felt great about Lil’ Baby Cakes and my start as a small business owner began.  Being the creative type I truly love the opportunity to design new diaper cakes and work with my customers.  I operate the business with a small team of ladies out of a leased office space, as it’s not practical to run from a home.  I’ve spent a lot of time nurturing Lil’ Baby Cakes into a professional shopping experience for our customers including our website, blog, phone support, and naturally our diaper cakes.  I really strive to offer an upscale product that any new mom would be thrilled to receive.

I believe you can break the mold of working a corporate job that takes time away from family and the responsibilities of being a mom to follow one’s true passions. I can now participate in our kid’s activities, and can honestly say I am doing what I love.

My biggest lessons in my journey so far is that I wear many hats and my job is never done.  However, I have freedom to pick and choose how to spend my time.  It’s never a straight path to reach your goals.  I found that out very quickly!  I’m still reaching for the stars and encourage other moms reading this to pursue their dreams.  Don’t get discouraged by the setbacks as I believe they are inevitable.  Besides it makes the “wins” that much sweeter.

Courtesy of Lil’ Baby Cakes, Moomette’s Magnificents  is hosting a Giveaway Contest!

Planning a baby shower?  Or maybe you just had a baby yourself or has a friend that would enjoy winning a baby shower diaper cake from Lil’ Baby Cakes.

Lil Baby Cakes’ diaper cakes are not only adorable but make a great practical gift because one thing the new mom will definitely need is diapers.  Whether used for a baby shower centerpiece or given as a gift I can guarantee you this is a gift that will be used.

We are featuring the Monkey Giraffe Diaper Cake.  This adorable diaper cake features a zoo themed design and is a gender neutral design. Value $73

Here’s what’s included:

* Approximately 40 Pampers Swaddler Size 1     Diapers
* Plush Monkey
* Plush Giraffe
* Johnson & Johnson travel items (shampoo, lotion, wash, powder)
* Palm tree and monkey embellishments
* Luxury ribbon and Jungle Vines to set the stage

Baby Bella Maya – Trendy Couture Car Seat Covers for Toddlers

Trendy Baby Couture

Baby Bella Maya – Posh Designs for Baby Accessories

< br/>

After my children were grown I had visions of perhaps getting a little sports car to toodle around town in.  That vision was only a fleeting thought, as now I’m zipping around town with not one, but two cars seats in the back seat to pick the grandchildren up once daycare is over.

I’ve recently had the opportunity to review a beautiful, designer infant car seat cover from Baby Bella Maya.  My grandchildren are now able to travel not only in style, but in comfort.  I received the Toddler COUTURE in Ocean Mist, which could be used for either a boy or girl.  I really liked the satin-sheen finish and intricate details on the designs.  The piping along the edge of the car seat cover is evidence that this is a quality product.

Moms today are fortunate to have so many fashionable and trendy options available to them compared to when I was a young mom.

Baby Bella Maya offers parents a safety benefit not available on other car seat covers: snaps. The covers add style to infant carriers, but in the safest possible way. No need to remove the straps repeatedly in order to keep car seat covers clean. The snaps allow for easy access that does not require removing the car seat’s straps. Simply slide straps through the inserts, snap it up and you are ready to go. Canopies available with trim and ruffle, matching seatbelt pads included.

The covers are made of woven polyester blends and are available in fun animal prints to the luxurious woven damasks.  The cover was designed to fit the Britax Marathon car set, however it should fit most other most major brands.

Recommended Cleaning: Hand Wash, cool water, lay flat to dry

Baby bella Maya also offers couture blankets, booties and gift sets as well as  a gift registery – perfect for the Baby Showers, Moms-to-Be or holiday gift giving.

Baby Bella Maya is offering Free Shipping all during the month of July!

Available in Select Retail locations.

Suggested Retail: $70-80 depending on choice of fabric.

Baby Bedding By Carousel Designs – Review and Giveaway

Carousel Designs

Carousel Designs Baby Bedding

My daughters were born in the 1980s.  Whenever there was a night feeding that was needed, my husband would nudge me and of course I’d be the one who had to get up and make the bottle to feed the babies.

I inherited many of my grandmother’s antique period pieces of furniture, and have several rockers.  One is a Lady Windsor rocker in cherry – it has the slatted back and is very elegant and you’ll still find them in New England colonial homes, and the other is a Lady Lincoln Rocker, much like the one pictured here.    I’d venture down to the living room in the middle of the night, and rock my babies as I fed them, the Black Lab at my feet.

Moms today breastfeed, and the new rocker of choice is the glider.  When my granddaughter, ‘Lil Moomette was born, my daughter received a glider as a baby shower gift along with many decorative pillows to coordinate with her baby bedding.

I’m delighted to be able to let you know about Carousel Designs. Not only do they offer decorative and coordinating nursery pillows, they also offer crib bedding.

I received a beautiful Blue Modern Dot Decorative pillow.  The pillow itself is a coordinate  in the Blue Modern Dot Collection and is composed of Solid Blue Minky and edged in Chocolate Minky. The pillow is approximately 12″ x 9″ and a pillow form is included.  It’s really comfortable and coordinates well with my grandson’s room – I can’t believe he’ll be celebrating his First Birthday in August!

Carousel Designs has been designing and manufacturing baby crib bedding for over 21 years right in the USA!

If you have an upcoming Baby Shower for a daughter, daughter-in-law or special friend,  you’ll find a wonderful selection of boy crib bedding and custom crib bedding certain to please the new mom-to-be.  If you’re matching a bedding set to a specific color scheme, swatches are available and are a great way to “touch and feel” the product before placing an order.

The Baby Dipper Bowl ~ A Review

I actively participate in Twitter & Facebook and met Barbara Schantz who sent me a delightful new product to review!

Barbara is a mom of not one, but two sets of twins.  As if she’s not busy enough, Barbara is also  mompreneur owner of Baby Dipper, LLC, and the designer of The Baby Dipper Bowl.

This bowl allows parents to feed a baby using only one hand and helps toddlers learn to feed themselves.

My daughter, mom to ‘Lil Moomette who just turned two, also has her hands full as she has a new son, Slugger, who was born in August, 2008. When they’re over, it takes both of us to try to feed the kiddos, so I can’t even imagine having two sets of twins!

My Charming Son-In-Law is a twin and has a sister who’s 14 months younger than him, so his mom and I always have conversations about what it was like when he and his siblings were younger!

Sales of The Baby Dipper Bowl launched in July 2008. What makes this versitile bowl so unique is that it’s triangular shaped, measures 4 inches long, 3 inches wide; 1 3/4 inches deep (10 cm x 7.5 cm x 4.5 cm) and holds 4 fluid ounces.

The Baby Dipper Bowl has a non-slip base gripper bottom, so it stays in place on a smooth surface, and won’t slide around. It has contoured interior guides enabling easy transfer of food to spoon. Additionally, it’s transparent, and allows easy viewing of how much food is left in the bowl.  The Baby Dipper Bowl comes with it’s own spoon featuring a nicely curved handle, for ease of use.

Microwave safe ~ exercise caution with hot foods
Hand Washing Recommended

Grandmoms ~ Aunts~Sisters & Friends! This nifty bowl will make an excellent Baby Shower, Newborn or Holiday gift this season!

Barbara would like to offer my readers a coupon code to use for purchasing The Baby Dipper Bowl.  Use CODE MOOM1108 to receive 10% off between now through November 30, 2008.

Visit Baby Dipper for more information.
