Making Sleep Time Sweet With Pampers + GIVEAWAY #PampersBabyDry

When it comes to choosing products for my family, there are select brands I trust and use without any resistance. Pampers being one of them! I remember the first diapers I ever received were the Pampers Swaddlers for newborns. After having Toodie, this is what the hospital provided me with and since then I have continued to be loyal to the brand. Their diapers,pull-ups, and durable wipes are the only ones that do not leak, irritate, or fall apart.

We have gone through many years in which Pampers have been an active participant in keeping my little one’s long nights of sleep dry and her dreams sweet as can be. From the time she was a tiny munchkin up until today, actively potty training, it has been the brand I have depended on to make the transition easier. Each parent has their own routine when it comes to bed time. But we all have one thing in common! Pampers assures us that each night of sleep will be comfortable, dry, and un-interuppted.

 
Our Sweep Sleep Time begins with a warm bubbly bath full of toys. After the soapy suds have dissolved and little fingers have turned to prunes, I bundle my sweet girl in her warm monkey robe. Once her jammies are on we snuggle under the covers, reading bed time stories and sharing our favorite parts of the day together. Soon, heavy eyes are closed and it’s time for mommy to get a few things done around the house. Hours later I always find a certain someone crawling into my bed to cuddle close. With Pampers, I am confident that I won’t wake up to wet sheets beneath me! The Pampers Baby Dry diapers offer 12 hours of overnight dryness thanks to their THREE layers of absorbency. They are flexible, snug, and the UltraAbsorb™ core creates outstanding leakage protection. They are available in sizes 1 through 6 to grow with your baby. 

Pampers is well aware of the importance of peaceful sleep and a happy baby in the morning. This is why they are hosting an exciting giveaway. For the chance to win a year supply of Pampers Baby Dry Diapers and more, enter the Pinterest giveaway between April 10th and April 24th. Entrants can participate by pinning a special “Sweet Sleep Time” giveaway image that represents their favorite sleep time solution, rituals, moment, or product.

Keep Your Toilet Bowl Clean With Soft Scrub 4-In-1 Toilet Care + GIVEAWAY! (3 Winners)

I think it’s fair to say that one of the hardest areas to keep clean in any home is the dreaded bathroom. I can easily overlook having to wipe the counters down, mop the tile, and even scrub that pesky ring around the tub. But when it comes to the toilet, the germy germs living inside make my skin crawl! In the past I have primarily used liquid cleaners and foam sprays to get rid of the bacteria and gunk that gets caught in the toilet bowl and upper ring. As I am not familiar with a clip on hanger, I was very excited to try a new product released by Soft Scrub. The 4-in-1 Toilet Care is designed to clean several times, after each and every flush. This saves times and also keeps you from having to scrub the toilet on a daily basis.

Soft Scrub 4-in-1 Toilet Care is what I like to call a “Jack Of All Trades.” This is because it doesn’t only deliver one benefit or perform a single action. It does several things to keep your toilet clean, smelling fresh, and ring-free. It stays in place while cleaning your toilet, prevents future buildup, fights icky toilet rings, and freshens for up to 4 weeks. If that isn’t enough, it also comes in 2 different fragrances: Alpine Fresh with Bleach and Sapphire Waters without bleach. Due to its advanced design, the product clips comfortably onto the outside rim of your toilet. Once the seat is placed down over the piece, it is barely noticeable. It also fits very snug so you don’t have to worry about it loosening or falling off when it comes time to flush. Each strip consists of four small cleanser balls trapped with a plastic cage to keep them in place. This allows water to activate the cleaner with each flush. Being a person that has never used a toilet hanger, I have to say I am very pleased with this product. It has kept our toilet smelling fresh and also prevented build up in our front bathroom, which has the most traffic. Once the cleansing balls dissolve you can toss the plastic piece into the trash and replace it with a new one. You can find the Soft Scrub 4-in-1 Toilet Care packs at Walmart for less than $2.00!

Soft Scrub is hosting another sweepstakes to celebrate the release of the new Soft Scrub 4-in-1 Toilet Care. As always, there will be several winners and great prizes! One very lucky Grand Prize winner will receive $1,000 while 250 second place winners will get to try 4-in-1 Toilet Care for themselves. This contest is running through April 26th so there is plenty of time to get your daily entries in.
For another chance to win a Soft Scrub 4-in-1 Toilet Care you can enter below through the rafflecopter form. I am giving away THREE free product coupons to my readers.

Making Bath Time Fun With Dial Kids Body & Hair Wash + GIVEAWAY!

For 65 years, the Dial brand has spent their time developing trusted personal care products for clean and healthy skin. While Dial is typically found in our kitchen and bathrooms, they are excited to announce their entry into bath tubs! Focusing on children’s personal care, a new segment known as Dial Kids Body & Hair Wash is offering specialized products. It offers age appropriate variants developed to address specific skin needs of children. It is available in two formulas, one for children ages 2+ and the other for those in the 6+ category. Both have been developed by pediatric dermatologists who have made sure that each is gentle on our little one’s skin. The 2 in 1 formulas combine shampoo and body wash for a multi use product that makes bath time fun and simplified. The Dial Kids Body & Hair Wash is tear free, hypoallergenic, and also PH balanced. It also does not contain any artificial dyes or added parabens.

As a toddler, Toodie has outgrown the traditional infant body washes and shampoos. But at the same time, her skin has always been sensitive and some products are too harsh for regular use everyday. The Dial Kids Body & Hair Wash meant for children ages 2-5 is ideal for those who fall right into this category. It comes in a Peachy Clean scent and provides ultra gentle cleansing with a fun, fresh, and light scent. I like that the fragrance is not over powering but it is still noticeable after bath time is over. It doesn’t irritate the skin and it leaves it feeling soft and moisturized. This is exactly the type of product I prefer to use on my daughter‘s skin because I know that it is safe and formulated for her specific needs.


For children that are ages 6 and up, Dial Kids Body & Hair Wash offers a mild cleansing wash that will not dry out their delicate skin. This product is available in two scents, Watery Melon and Berry Cool. Both bottles come in bright vibrant colors and the scents take bath time to a whole new level of fun. Even though Toodie falls into the age range of the Peachy Clean wash, I am still comfortable allowing her to use these because they are a gentle formula. Watery Melon smelled sweet, fruity, and clean. It also lathered nicely on a loofa and wash cloth. Not to mention, it created a heap of fluffy bubbles in the bath tub.

The Dial brand is hosting a sweepstakes to accompany the release of the NEW Dial Kids Body & Hair Wash. One grand prize winner will receive $1000 and 250 additional winners will receive a coupon for a free bottle of the Dial Kids Body & Hair Wash. Also, I am giving away (4) FREE product vouchers in which 2 winners will receive 2 coupons each. Enter below for your chance to win!

Both can be found at most mass retailers such as Toys R Us, Target, Walmart, etc.

Gentle Cleaning With Soft Scrub Advanced Surface + GIVEAWAY! #PurexInsider

Who doesn‘t enjoy a cleaning product with multiple uses? Most of us who do the cleaning on our homes would never object! It’s nice to find an efficient cleaning product that will not only do the job, but also work in more than one area and on more than one surface. It just makes life much more easier in the world of cleaning. For myself, the hardest room to maintain is the kitchen. It’s a high traffic area with a ton of sticky spots, caked on stains, and greasy streaks. At times the cleaning process can make the mess even bigger, with puddles of dirty water covering the counters. I can’t stand this and when I was given the opportunity to try and alternative cleaner that would eliminate this annoyance, I jumped on it.

This new Soft Scrub advanced formula provides a better way to clean premium surfaces in your home. This may include granite, marble, and also stainless steel. For those of you who have high quality counter tops and appliances, I highly recommend this specialized product. It is designed especially for these areas within your kitchen and home. Why use regular soap and a sponge when you have something that will gently clean and maintain those delicate surfaces?

This product is also unlike most I have used. It is a rinse-free gel that cleans and polishes without any water. You can pretty much squirt, clean, and wipe away! There won’t be any need for excess water all over your counters, dripping on the floor and making a bigger mess. I think that is what I like most about this. It gets the job done but in a much more efficient manner. Once it is applied to the surface you can wipe it with a sponge, cloth, or paper towel. The grease and grime will glide off with no effort whatsoever. How could you not love this product?!

In conjunction with the NEW Soft Scrub® Advanced Surface Insider Kit, Soft Scrub is proud to introduce the Don’t Worry, Be Happy Sweepstakes featuring NEW Soft Scrub® Advanced Surface! One lucky winner will receive $1,000, while 250 second place winners get to try NEW Soft Scrub® Advanced Surface for FREE!

Once again, the great and powerful team behind Purex has provided me with FREE product coupons to give away to my readers. You can enter below to win one of three product coupons to redeem for a Soft Scrub product of your choice. Good luck!

As a matter of fact, YO GABBA GABBA was the first television show I ever introduced my daughter to.
