Preschool is here.....oh no!

Artist at Heart...

Our son recently started preschool, and he has been bringing home a lot of art. It's starting to pile up, and I can't throw it out because he did such a good job on his projects. This is the perfect place to store his work, and it stays safe from bending and liquid spills.

Can You Find My Pacifier?

Great Blanket....

I really like this blanket for children who are using a pacifier through the night (even though I don't recommend it). This blanket keeps the pacifier from being misplaced in the bed through the night. The pacifier attaches to the blanket.

If You Remind Me I'll Go

The Potty Watch!

I just bought this watch a few days ago and I love it. Our oldest son has a sensory processing disorder and does not care if his pull-up is wet. However, when we take him to the potty he goes every time- even in 30 minute increments. I used to used a kitchen timer, but sometimes I would forget to restart the timer and then 2hrs would have passed, and I would get discouraged and stop putting him on the potty that day. However, the Potty Watch does all the reminding for the child. A song comes on, and it lights up every time it's time to go to the potty, and it automatically restarts its self. You can use 3 different time increments: 30, 60, and 90 minute intervals. Our son loves it.

This table is great. It's not only a sand and water table, but can even be converted into a train table. Great for outdoors and even backyard parties! The best part is ALL the toys are included!

No More Germs...

The Germ Guardian

I really like this sanitizer. It sanitizes pacifiers, small toys, and teething toys. It's small and compact and fits on the kitchen counter really well.

Repeat After Me...

Music CDs that Enhance Speech

Our son loves these CDs so much. Each song emphases key sounds and letters important in speech development. Great for teaching speech or just having fun in general.
