Two reviews on Fisher Price toys - the Zoo Talkers zoo and the Wheelies Stand 'n Play Ramp.
We love the Zoo Talkers zoo and accessories, Cupcake received this as a Christmas gift and it has done really well at holding her attention during the 6 months that we've had it. There are a number of animals that are available to purchase additionally for the zoo and there is also a fun jeep vehicle.
The Wheelies Stand 'n Play Ramp is great for toddler that are into cars! Cupcake just received this for her 2nd birthday and it has been a total hit! She has started really liking cars (waving "hi" to cars, making the "vroom vroom" noise, etc...), so I thought she would love the little Wheelies in addition to the great ramp features. It is a great height for them to be able to access it on all levels and the features are very toddler-user friendly. The elevator makes a fun click noise and the sounds make her squeal when the car rolls over the sensor.
All in all, we've had the best luck with Fisher Price toys over any other brand we've tried. We're very pleased with all of the toys we've purchased. I think the quality is exceptional and the retail prices are reasonable given the amount of use that our children will be able to get out of them!
I was sent a few products to try by GCubed LLC and wanted to share what I thought about them with you guys! Review of two skin care products - Toe Juice & Hog Wash!
Toe Juice, an "it can do it all" liquid that is supposed to cure a number of skin ailments, the main one being dry, cracked, or rough skin. I tested this product on my feet, around the edges where I get caluses and tend to need (i.e. want) a pedicure every few weeks to feel like my feet are comfortable and presentable. After a few weeks of using Toe Juice, I did notice that my feet remained softer, and that I could go longer between pedicures if needed. It is easy to apply, I found that it was most easily applied on a cotton ball and wiped on the foot. Available at amazon.com, toejuice.com, drugstore.com, Walgreens.com, and some brick & mortar retailers. If you're in the Chicagoland area, Jewel Osco carries it.
My verdict: I think that Toe Juice is a great product and I would like to continue using it in the future. Especially for those times when I'm too busy to get in for a pedicure, after consistent use... I think it could buy me an extra week or two between pedicure visits.
Hog Wash is a clear hand sanitizer that is supposed to make your hands softer and not over dry them like some sanitizers can. After a week and a half of occasional use (after diaper changes, etc.) I did find that it was not drying and did make my hands feel a bit smoother, like you had put a small amount of lotion on. The consistancy was slightly sticky after application, which can be a bit tricky if you're needing to scoop up a baby immediately after applying it - however it wasn't as bad as other hand sanitizers I've tried in the past. All in all, it doesn't over dry and is just a good basic sanitizer with a light lemon smell. Plus it has a cute name to boot.
My verdict: It is a good basic hand sanitizer for when you don't want some thing fragranced and are on the go. This would be something I would throw in the back of my vehicle for "on the go" diaper changes and other unfortunate instances like that, that require hand sanitization on the go. ;)
