We are now less than 48 hours away from the big game aka Superbowl Sunday! wootwoot! Hubby and I are big football fans (although neither one of our teams are in the Superbowl this year). With that said…who will you be cheering for to win …
I love a hot cup of steaming hot tea on cold winter days. I love mine a tad sweet. It just warms me right up! I have been a tea drinker my whole life and have been able to taste teas from all over the …
Today I would like to introduce you to the company called Educational Insights based out of Southern California. Educational Insights is the manufacturer of playful products with serious educational value, including subject-specific classroom products, teacher resources, educational toys, and games. Their products are designed by seasoned educators & parents who know that children love to learn when you make that learning experience fun!
When you visit the Educational Insights online web site you will find that it’s really easy to navigate. The web site has three tabbed categories which are the sections for Parents, Teachers and Classroom Jeopardy. Since I am a mother and grandmother…I could spend hours just browsing around their parent’s section of the web site.
My Review: The great folks over at Educational Insights sent me the “Grandma’s Trunk Alphabet Game” to review for all of you. This wonderful game is made for ages 5 and up and comes packaged in an adorable cardboard trunk! I love the graphics on it and I love how the game stores safely inside it.
There are 5 different ways that this game can be played and that is a great feature so that your kids will never get bored with it. (or us grandparents who play along with our grandkids). Kids will practice letter names, sounds, build memory skills, create stories and play fun riddle games.
When you open the darling little trunk you will find an instructional guide, 26 fun riddle cards and 26 alphabet picture cards (with upper and lower-case letters; color-coded red vowels and blue consonants on one side). You can play 5 different games with this set or make up your own games! (1) What Comes Next? game (2) Memory Time game (3) Letter Sequence Memory game (4) Grandma’s Riddles game (5) Grandma’s Adventures game.
My grand-wee-one is almost 3 years old so this game is a tad advanced for her (even though she is advanced for her age). We decided to use the game as alphabet flash cards to help teach her ABC’s and let me tell you…she is doing extremely well with that! Since the cards are also colorful they are great teaching tools to teach toddler’s their colors too. I love how everything packs inside the little trunk for storage. (it’s way too cute!). I am really looking forward to continuing to work with grand-wee-one using this set and I am sure as we go along she will learn even more so that we can actually play the 5 games. I really love this set!!!
You can purchase the Educational Insights Grandma’s Trunk Alphabet Game

Today I would like to introduce you to the company called Freeman who makes a large variety of bath products, body products, skincare products and haircare products. The folks at Freeman Beauty Labs know that beauty is more than skin deep so that is why they use high-quality botanical ingredients that naturally cleanse, moisturize, smooth and refresh to have you looking and feeling your best. One of the reasons I love this company so much is that their products are super affordable and their product selection is vast!
My Review: The generous folks over at Freeman Beauty sent me 3 full-size products to review for all of you. First up…the Apricot Creamy Facial Scrub which comes in a large 6 fl. oz. squeeze tube and retails for $3.99. This non-abrasive face scrub gently resurfaces the skin as it deeply moisturizes and sloughs away dead skin cells. I have been washing my face with this product 4-5 times a week since receiving it and love it! This product does not irritate my skin (I have dry sensitive skin) and it smells wonderful! Love that it rinses away cleanly and leaves no stickiness behind.
Next up…the Chocolate & Strawberry Facial Clay Mask which comes in a large 6 fl. oz. squeeze tub and retails for $3.99. This clay mask smells so good…seriously good! It will help tone skin & help to diminish the appearance of large pores while it nourishes & moisturizes your skin. I slightly dampened my skin and applied the mask…waited a few minutes for it to dry & then washed it off. The entire time it was on my face I felt like I was in chocolate heaven…smells fab!!! I have been using it twice a week since receiving it and love it! It is doing a great job at cleaning out my pores, shrinking my pore size and moisturizing my skin.
Finally…the Pomegranate Sugar Body Scrub which comes in a large 6 fl. oz. squeeze tub and retails for $3.99. I am going to tell you upfront…this is my FAVORITE product out of the 3 I reviewed. This sweet smelling sugar scrub helps to slough off your dead skin cells so that your skin has a healthy glow. I have been using this product in the shower twice a week all over my body and 3 times a week on my feet (my feet have been super dry this winter). If your hands are dry, use this sugar scrub on them to slough off all of that dead skin! This product smells super sweet and just like fresh Pomegranates but more importantly, it is one of the best sugar scrubs I have ever used! I love this product so much that it is going to be a staple product in my beauty bag from now on! LOVE IT!
Now you all can see why I love Freeman’s beauty products so much! They smell so good, they do the job they were intended to do and they are super affordable! For less than $12.00 you can pick up all 3 of those products! Fantastic!
