Seventh Generation Free and Clear Diaper & Dr. Seuss's The Lorax storybook (Review + Giveaway) #MyBlogSpark

Commenter #12 - Congrats Sara!!
Have you ever thought of ways to save a tree? I was surprised when I received a prize pack which conatined a one package of new Seventh Generation Free & Clear diaper product and a copy of Dr. Seuss's The Lorax storybook.

As a mom of 2, I have been through plenty of diapers. As soon as one is out of diaper, I'm back to the game. I happened to love Seventh Generation because they believe in saving a planet while creating a smile. I just adored The Lorax prints on the training pant. It assures me that they are made from planet-based materials. They are very stretchy. Although my boys doesn't have any allergies and/or rashes on their tushies, these materials totally helps to absorb. The prints on them are cuter for my youngest to wear.

Want a chance to win? The prize pack contans:
* Seventh Generation Free & Clear diaper product
* Dr. Seuss's The Lorax storybook

Mantory Entry: Which of the Seventh Generation Free & Clear Diaper products are you most interested in trying with your family in an effort to become more eco-conscious?

Yoplait® Lactose Free (Review + Giveaway) #MyBlogSpark

Congrats Commenter #16 - Marci!!

I have never tried any yogurt. Growing up, I always thought they were for people who barely gain any weight. Well, I was wrong. I took a taste and fell in love. I especially loved the strawberry yogurt. It's so good.

They comes in four different flavors: strawberry, peach, french vanilla and cherry. Although strawberry is my favorite fruit, I couldn't wait to give other flavors a try!

I can also try Lactose Free in a recipe I saw on Yoplait. My love for bread, I would love to try Granola Sweet Rolls On A Stick  It looks good and deliciously enough to eat them all in one sitting. I will make them during spring/summer time.

Check out the website, Yoplait Lactose Free. Like them on facebook and follow on twitter to get all the latest news, information and sweepstakes!


Want to have a chance to win the Lactose Free Prize Pack? The prize pack contains:

Valentine Crafts

I bought the items needed to make valentine crafts for Dezmond's class last week. 
- open stock papers
- heart punch
- heart stamp
- ink for stamp
- scissor
- goo gone
- polyuterane (fast-drying)
- glitters
- pencils
- shelf liners

I only spent $6.XX for crafts and I won a $20 Lowe's giftcard in twitter party long time ago and I used that to buy sprays.

I found the cutest idea ever for the mason jars on Pinterest. Mason Jars Glitter Heart Votives - the information and instruction can be found in the link provided. So, my creation came to this - I tried my best!


Now, for personalized pencils.. Dezmond gave me a hard time because he wanted to make his own, instead of making for his friends. So, I borrowed the idea from Momspotted but I did it slightly different because of the heart punch. I couldn't find the smaller one. Here it is!


I hope you find something to make for your children's class just like I did. I will try to come up with something different next year. I love those DIY projects.
