Frecklebox Review & Giveaway

I'm a major fan of personalized products, so no doubt when I can across Frecklebox, I fell in love. The styles and the colors are charming. Frecklebox characters are friendly and inviting to children. We received a Frecklebox Patch The Puppy personalized lunch boxes & personalized school folders to review. My son is really tickled to have his name on them.

Patch The Puppy personalized lunch box
The lunch boxes are made of .30 millimeter tin (lead free) and covered with printed, laminated high-tack adhesive on all sides. They have a chalkboard on the inside lid for writing notes to your loved ones. Finish size is 7-5/8" x 6-3/4" x 4".
We truly love the Frecklebox tin lunch box. The fact that it even has a chalkboard inside really exclaims awesome. It is easy to see why Frecklebox is for children of all ages and puts a smile on little faces. Personalized School Supplies are always a plus with little ones. That's why Patch The Puppy Personalized School Folder & Jumpy Joe Personalized School Folder will be the perfect folders for school. Frecklebox products make great gifts and even cool party favors.

School folders are printed in color on one side with extra sturdy 16pt. coated cover. They have two 4" pockets on the inside for storage. Finish size is 9" x 12".


Frecklebox products are hot and make the best personalized gifts. Thanks to Frecklebox for being a part of the "Hotter Than Summer Event" and for giving one of my readers $40 gift card for items of choice.

Protect-A-Bed’s Potty Training Protection Kit Review & Giveway


Protect-A-Bed has hit the nail on the head with the Protect-A-Bed’s Potty Training Protection Kit. The Potty Training Protection Kit is the hottest item with potty training children. Night time accidents don't have to be an embarrassment or a nightmare! System is designed waterproof and keeps your child’s mattress free of stains. Return to sleep quickly, that's just what children need & parents too!

I'm a long time user of Protect-A-Bed products, I first used a Protect A Bed mattress protector on my king size bed. It has saved me so many unwanted mattress stains with 2 children. I know Protect A Bed mattress protectors are great. Now with the potty training kit night time accidents are not a problem and if virus hits, you know what I'm talking about..

Here is how to use the Protect-A-Bed’s Potty Training Protection Kit:
Simply layer the contents of the Potty Training Protection Kit with the bedding that you normally use at home. Creating a “lasagna” type of bedding changing system. When an accident occurs, strip the top sheet and 1st Protector, revealing the clean bedding below.

Potty Training Kit includes:

2 Twin Premium Mattress Protectors:
The Premium mattress protector is a popular choice in Protect-A-Bed's® line of mattress protection products. Premium features a cotton terry towel surface for superior comfort and excellent absorbency. In addition, the Premium mattress protector is backed with our exclusive Miracle Membrane®. Miracle Membrane® is waterproof while remaining air vapor porous, and allows body heat to easily pass through. It also serves as a barrier for dust mites and allergens, which provides for healthy, irritant-free sleep.

•1 Standard Size Pillow Protector:
Protect-A-Bed® Premium pillow protectors provide protection for you and your pillow. The super soft, absorbent, yet ultra-thin Premium pillow protectors are air vapor porous and cool, protect you from allergens, dust mites and bacteria. Your pillow will also be protected from stains, and our Premium pillow protectors can be machine washed on hot and tumble dried on medium.


Protect-A-Bed is a leading supplier of bedding protection products. Thanks to Protect-A-Bed for being a part of the "Hotter Than Summer Event" and for giving one of my readers the Protect-A-Bed’s Potty Training Protection Kit.
