Personalized Items by Oopsy

One of the things I love is personalized clothing for my kids. I think it’s a great way to stand out from the crowd and show a little more personality. So when I found out about Oopsy, I had to check out their products.

I decided on a personalized onesie for Kaila and sent them a logo I sometimes use for An Island Life. Beth, designer and owner, quickly responded to my order to make sure everything was exactly the way I wanted it. And within a couple of days, my onesie was on it’s way to Hawaii.

When it arrived, I couldn’t wait to try it on Kaila. The first thing I noticed was how great the logo turned out! The quality of the print and the dark colors definitely show craftmanship. I also liked how thick and soft the onesie is. The 100% organic baby rib cotton material is very comfortable and the 3-snap crotch closure keeps everything in place.

The best part was being able to personalize it. I really like being able to select just the right image and showing it off on quality items. Kaila looks so great in her new onesie. If you prefer, Oopsy also has a wide selection of ready-made prints that you can choose from.

So if you’re looking for personalized items for your family, check out Oopsy today. They have pretty much everything you can think of including clothing, totes, business cards, candy, digital art, and great gift items!

K’NEX For Kids of All Ages

One of my girls favorite kind of toys are those where they can use their imaginations and build things. That’s why we were thrilled for the opportunity to review K’NEX thanks to Team Mom.

OUR REVIEW

We received two different sets that were targeted for different age groups:

• Sesame Street Neighborhood Collection Building Set (2 – 5 years)
• 400 PCS Tub (7 years +)

Kiana loved the Sesame Street Neighborhood Collection. This 19-piece set contained over-sized pieces that were perfect for her tiny hands. The blocks fit together easily and stayed together when she was done. We also liked the moving wheels because it allowed her to actually play with her creation once she was done building it.

The 400 PCS Tub was a little more advanced and would be great for kids with active imaginations. With all these pieces, the possibilities are endless. However, for people who could use a little help in the creative department (like me), they also included a booklet with step-by-step instructions on how to build various creations. You can even go to their website for additional ideas.

My only concern is that some of the pieces were very tiny and I was afraid that we may end up losing some. I had to make sure that Kacie understood that all unused pieces would need to stay in the container.

Other than that, Kacie and Kiana both enjoyed playing with their K’NEX sets. It was a great opportunity for all of us to play together and have fun!

K’NEX is also holding a Make a K’NEXion contest. Now you have the chance to win over $1,000 worth of K’NEX Toys and be featured on the KNEX.com web site. How? Make a video and include select K’NEX products. The possibilities are endless. Construct your own story or showcase your child’s K’NEX building skills – use your imagination! The 10 best videos will be featured on KNEX.com and the winning video will receive $1,000 worth of K’NEX Toys. How cool!

This post was written as part of a program for Team Mom and K’NEX who provided the item for review. We were not compensated in any way except for the complimentary product.
