Burt's bees baby bee shampoo & wash

Burt's bees baby bee shampoo & wash

If you are like me and searching for a natural product to bathe your baby with without all the harmful chemicals and who know what else, look no longer!

I have found an amazing product! Burt's bees baby bee shampoo & baby wash!

Bath time is so much fun for a baby! They love to splash and play with toys and my son loves to stand and sit really fast, creating his own little tidal wave, flooding the floor and his mommy too. I love the smell of a freshly clean baby. You know, that "baby smell".

I'm a mommy that fell for those sweet Johnson and Johnson commercials with those precious babies being lathered in bubbles and wrapped in minky soft baby towels. And with my first three babies that's what I used without even second guessing what I was putting on my baby and what the washes, lotions, and shampoos consisted of. Don't get me wrong I like Johnson and Johnson, I just like this Burt's bees better!

Burt's bees is a natural product which is plant based, gentle, and tear free. It has an amazing scent that lasts all day I swear! I could sniff my baby boys head for hours if he let me! 
It is easy to lather and a little bit goes a long way. There is no residue left over and it rinses very well leaving babies skin so very soft! 
It cost me about $6 for the bottle. A little bit more pricey than some other baby brands but well worth the extra couple of dollars.

I highly recommend trying it out! I have made the switch and am looking into adult products to try
for myself from Burt's bees.

Pink mega blocks scooping wagon!

MEGA BLOCKS SCOOPING WAGON REVIEW
from one mom to another
Should you buy one? Does it work?

I'm a big sucker when it comes to my kids and presents. I want them to have everything their little hearts desire. But how do you know if a toy is worth the money you will spend? And will it be something they will really play with again and again? I'm here to let you know my experiences on purchases I have made and whether it's worth buying or not.

I recently purchased the pink mega blocks scooping wagon for my daughter Emmy who turned 4 in November.  Everytime we would go to Walmart she would see this wagon and pull it off the shelf and try to roll her way to the registers. So after seeing how much she seemed to love it, I decided to surprise her with it.
This wagon is pretty well made and very vibrant in color! The front roller part is glittery- in the paint, not the type that flakes off all over your house. It is extremely durable considering it took a fall down the stairs and has been non stopped used for several months now. 
My daughter absolutely loves this wagon.

It doesn't come with a whole lot of blocks so we also purchased the 80 piece mega blocks bag set and it fills the wagon up to the top! I recommend you do the same because you can't do a ton of building with what is included in the wagon.

It is extremely cool how it is able to scoop the blocks up from the floor. It works on our hardwood flooring and on our carpet. It has a little trouble if they are in big bunches and seems to do better when they are laid out flat on the floor. It picks them up and pushes them with its spinner into the inside of the bucket. We laid all the blocks out to see if it would miss any and it did really good! It picked up 9 out of 10 on one roll through. We had to go back over the last one again and it got it too! My daughter actually enjoys cleaning up her blocks!! Love it!

I have to say when I first saw it I was a bit worried about the way it scoops the blocks up and was concerned my two year old or 11 month old would stick their hand inside while my 4 year old pushed it fast down the hall, catching their hand inside. My worries were WRONG. The inside spinners are made of a very flexible plastic that bend and move very easily and it would not be able to do such force. So if this has crossed your mind rest assured there is nothing to worry about. What a relief!! 

 All in all this wagon has kept my toddlers and preschooler very well entertained. It's made well and I see it lasting for a very long time. I am very pleased with my purchase and I highly recommend this wagon.
