Everybody loves baby shoes.  It’s a universal symbol of the warmth of a growing family and the joy a baby brings into a home.  There are so many people who become gushy and teary-eyed when they’re at a store and pick up a pair of tiny shoes that are smaller than one of your hands.  And we’ve discovered some “melt your heart right on the spot” booties – the adorable PUJ UNOS!

Puj, like many companies in the baby and toddler industry was started by parents who just felt it was natural to develop products that help them raise their children.  On top of being made out of microsuede extra breathable material and machine washable, the booties are SYMMETRICAL!!  That means no more scrambling around trying to get the right shoe on the right foot.  AND if you lose one you can call and order one individually, you don’t have to buy a whole new pair!

PUJ UNOS recently came out with new colors: Light Pink, Pale Blue, Plum Purple, Twilight, perfect colors for summer!  They are extremely lightweight & versatile, and have rubber non-slip soles available for sizes 3-9 months and up.

From today til Friday, we are giving away a pair of Puj Unos to one lucky winner!  They’re perfect for all babies, and make EXCELLENT gifts that will have everyone ooh and ahh at the sight of it!  Please read instructions below on how to enter, and be sure to share the link with your friends for a Double Entry.  GOOD LUCK!

What are some of your fondest childhood toys?  For all you parents with toddlers, I’m sure you can agree with me that one of our childhood favorites that never seemed to lose its popularity would have to be Play-Doh!  But, times are much better now, and for all you eco-conscious & green parents, we’re excited to share with you Mama K’s Aromatic Play Clay.

Kari Erickson-Valenzuela, aka Mama K, created her unique scented Play Clay for use with her own active three-year-old, Olimpia. Avoiding the artificial ingredients and cloying fruit and soda scents seen frequently marketed to children, she came up with a product that inspires focus and creates a calming atmosphere, all while encouraging creativity. Mama K’s Play Clay is a kid-safe clay with subtle aromatherapy oils to soothe the mind. Ingredients are basic and natural: they include certified gluten free flour, extra virgin olive oil, vegetable colorants and pure essential oils. Available in seven scents, including soothing lavender, relaxing chamomile and tension-easing bergamot.

They come in various colors and in lovely eco-friendly packaging, and their ingredients are 100% natural with ORGANIC oils.  Perfect for creative fun and to use as stress relievers for parents, Mama K’s Play Clay is also suitable for kids with Celiac and Autism Spectrum disorders.

Not for kids under 2 years old.
