Kids Can Learn to Speak French with Fritzi from Whistlefritz

Product was given to me in order to post my honest opinion.

 

 

I was recently given the opportunity to review the Whistlefritz French CD Cha, Cha, Cha. My kids love listening to it and they sing along now, as do I! I have been given the opportunity to review their French DVD Dedans et Dehors, which means Inside and Out.

 

Whistlefritz has created a line of immersion CDs and DVDs in French and Spanish for kids. “Language immersion” means children learn a second language by hearing and speaking only that language without translation. No English is spoken. Immersion is how we all learned our native language and it’s the most effective method for teaching children a second language.

What is in your Feminine Hygiene Products? Sign the Petition for Full Disclosure

Product was given to me in order to post my honest opinion.

 

 

Did you know that feminine hygiene companies don’t have to fully disclose the ingredients of their tampons and pads on their packaging? That’s because they are considered to be “medical devices.”

 

Tampons and pads with odor neutralizers and other artificial fragrances are nothing short of a chemical soup laced with artificial colors, polyester, adhesives, polyethylene (PET), polypropylene, and propylene glycol (PEG), contaminants linked to hormone disruption, cancer, birth defects, dryness, and infertility.

 

However, we don’t know for sure if they are present, because companies are not required to disclose the ingredients in their products.

Campus Book Rentals ~ Save Money when you Rent your College Textbooks {+Support Operation Smile}

This is a sponsored post.

My husband has returned to the world of college. This past summer we moved so my husband could start his Doctorate program at UCSB. My husband graduated with his Bachelors in History in 2003 and decided to go back to school to get his Master’s in 2011. Now we are continuing our journey in Santa Barbara, California. A lot of things have changed since, we were undergrads, but one thing that hasn’t is the cost of textbooks. My husband doesn’t need many textbooks with his program, but he does use textbooks when he TA’s for an undergrad class.

 

I am amazed at the cost of textbooks! Campus Book Rentals gives the opportunity to rent your textbooks instead of buying them. You can search their site for your book by author, title, keyword, or ISBN. You will save 40-90% off of bookstore prices. Your textbook with ship to you for free and will come with an envelope to ship your book back for free when you are done. Even though the books are rented, you can highlight and mark your book as if it was your own. Your rental period is flexible as well.

Somersault Snacks ~ A Nut-Free Protein Snack for the Whole Family

Product was given to me in order to post my honest opinion.

My family likes to snack, especially my husband. I try to find the healthiest options available when it comes to packaged foods. I was recently introduced to Somersault Snack Co. Their line of snacks is all centered on the sunflower seed. They have created a line of nut-free crunchy nuggets that are baked with sunflower seeds and grains. Sunflower seeds are a nutritionally dense food, packed with antioxidants, protein, vitamin E, minerals and healthy fats. Did you know Somersaults have the same protein but half the fat of almonds and 95% less sugar than an energy bar?
