Character Breakfast - guests can enjoy a delicious buffet breakfast in Nicktoons Café while the kids spend time with some of their favorite friends like SpongeBob SquarePants, Dora the Explorer, Cosmo and Wanda from The Fairly OddParents or the Rugrats.

Water Park - Is one of my favorite features! You really can stay at the hotel the entire time. "Lagoon – the first-of-its-kind, courtyard-style, zero-depth entry pool – and one of two pool complexes at the hotel. Pretend you’re SpongeBob, living in the city of Bikini Bottom, and slip, slide, and splash your way around, with a four-story water tower and a 400-gallon water tank that dumps out at random and cascades through seven slides and flumes."

  • The Mall, the hub of all indoor activities at the resort, including a food court, our guest-services desk, and cool places to buy stuff.
  • Big Room, the ultimate party room, perfect for celebrating birthdays, reunions, and other special events.
  • The Arcade, a huge video game arena, where you can play exciting new games or take them back to your suite.
  • The Lounge, a welcoming place where adults can simply relax with a cocktail, frozen drink, or afternoon coffee.

Nickelodeon Family Suites by Holiday Inn®, offers a wide range in rooms for all your family needs:

They have 777 suites!

Tiny Tag Designs Giveaway Closed

One lucky reader will win a necklace w/ 2 tags!

Here is some information on how Tiny Tag Designs got started:

"Tiny Tag Designs was started after I had my second child and was looking for something I could do in my spare time. I had taken classes in jewelry making and loved it and before I knew it I was making necklaces for my friends and family. With encouragement from my family, I decided to start Tiny Tag Designs as a fun hobby while being a stay at home mom. Each piece is hand made with love by me. I hope you like what you see and thank you for visiting Tiny Tag Designs website."

"Each sterling silver disc is hand stamped, oxidized (turns the letters black), buffed and polished per the customer’s specifications. A hole is drilled into the disc for the jump ring and hung on a sterling silver ball chain. Each piece is made to order and truly one-of-a-kind. "

I got my Tiny Tag necklace in with my daughters names on it. So beautiful! I love it! I wear it with everything.

Fair Indigo ~ Giveaway Closed


Introducing our newest fair trade family members: the Joobles!

Where do Joobles come from?

Started by a Peruvian family -- a mom, a dad, and their daughter -- this company provides work and hope to hundreds of rural and urban Peruvians all over the country. Small groups of impoverished workers are trained to run their own small businesses making hand-knit clothing and accessories. In addition to providing much needed employment, they train workers throughout Peru in such valuable skills as quality control and production planning. Fair Indigo also works with this company's charitable arm by donating free breakfasts and school supplies to children of the workers.

Parents who have shopped for organic toys will appreciate the value of Joobles. Other pricier knit toys not only cost more, but are often made of acrylic yarn and not made under fair trade conditions. Joobles are not only 100% adorable but will improve our planet for the next generation by supporting small sustainable farming and fair trade. Isn’t it amazing how the right toy can make a difference?


Retailing for just $29 each, Joobles can be found online at Fair Indigo or at specialty e-tailers like Oompa.com. Visit Fair Indigo’s website to see detailed images of each animal. The colorful characters range from turquoise to celery green.

How to win one of these cute Joobles:

1. Visit Fair Indigo all tell me your favorite Joobles.
2. Click on the tab "About Fair Trade" and tell me a little bit about it and why it is important.
You must complete 1 & 2 to be entered!
3. You can also subscribe to my blog / be a follower / grab my button for additional entries!
Contest will end December 2, 2008 9:00 PM EST.

Ages 3 and up

My daughter and I had a blast playing this game.

Now her favorite word is Arrgh! Their are six small puzzles to put together to make 1 large puzzle. It was great to work on her Eye-hand coordination and fine motor skills.

"At HABA we believe that children don’t play to learn, but they learn when they play. Playing games with family and friends has several benefits that often go unnoticed. We design and test each and every one of our game ideas with kindergartens, children and families. Our games are developed with the notion that we allow the children to use their own intelligent minds to develop their own rules and free play! We try to use wooden pieces, made at our own factories, as the accessories to the games. The wooden game figures are developed for little hands and are built to withstand the test of time and tempers! Playing games opens up your children to a whole new world!"

Babycakes Boutique ~ GIVEAWAY CLOSED



Babycakes Boutique is having me host a giveaway for a cell phone / gadget pouch. I must say it is so cute! Here is a little information about Babycakes Boutique:

"My name is Debbie, the creative mind behind Babycakes Boutique. I started doing hand embroidery and sewing when I was 9 years old. When my daughter was born I made all her layette because I couldn't find anything I like in the stores. I eventually discovered hand smocking, heirloom sewing and doll making. Some of my creations had been published in a Smocking and Heirloom Magazine. My first business was selling hairbows and beaded socks. I couldn't find fancy hairbows that would go with her outfits so I decided to make them and eventually started selling them. She had outgrown these "fancy clothes" and I wanted another creative outlet. "Babycakes" is my pet name for my daughter and her beloved Pooh Bear."

Chalkydoodles - GIVEAWAY CLOSED




















"Here comes Santa Clause and here comes Chalkydoodles new Kid's HOLIDAY Oilcloth Tablecloth with Border. Use it on your kid's holiday dinner table and you'll be the hip-est grandparent (or parent!) in town! Ready to play? Pull it off the table, throw it on the floor, and it doubles as a splat mat!"
~~~
Here is a little info on Chalkydoodles:

"I'm a stay-online-at-home mom with a Boy, a Girl, a sewing machine, and an online crafting business. I'm also a former journalist-turned consultant-turned marketing writer. I've got a thing for Oilcloth & Chalkcloth, and love to create items with it for your kids and for your home. When my son was a baby we received an oilcloth bib, and I just fell in love with the fabric!

Mexican oilcloth is a cotton-backed vinyl fabric that comes in tons of cute patterns, has a fun vintage-inspired flair and is just so functional. Wipe it up with a wet cloth - that's it! Then, I discovered chalkcloth and just couldn't stop thinking of ways to combine it with oilcloth to make stuff that kids can create with - and personalize - all by themselves. And, there are countless ways that you can use oilcloth and chalkcloth to help decorate, organize and communicate in your home. Our motto here at Chalkydoodles: Chalk it Up! Wipe it Up! Change it up! "

This tablecloth is absolutely adorable! Check out her store for more great and fun products! My favorite is the chalkboard banner!

CoCoJ Designs - GIVEAWAY CLOSED

Giveaway from
CoCoJ Designs

CoCoJ Designs makes some really cute shirts, quilts and other fun stuff! She is very reasonably priced. I got a turkey shirt in for my 2 year old. I loved it so much and so did my 9 year old daughter we had to get a matching one for her.

Here is some information on how she got started:

"I’ve always liked making things as did my mother (who made us clothes) and grandmother (who quilts). My mom put me in sewing lessons in middle school. That is when I made my first quilt and loved the process. 6 ½ years ago I graduated from Kennesaw State University with a Bachelors in Business Administration specializing in Entrepreneurship and Small Business. So my own business has always been on my brain. I worked doing in house accounting for 6 years until I had my son. He is now 22 months old and I get to stay on the go/home with him! I started making these shirts for him to have cute and different clothing. A friend of mine told me about Etsy because she thought I was creative and thought I should start selling my goods. So I did less than 6 months ago! It is so fun! I love seeing things that inspire me and making them come to life. Another seller said it well when she said “we were created in His image…I think that explains the desire to create.” I totally agree. "

Corrie is giving one lucky reader a $20.00 gift certificate to her store!

My Baby Pajamas - GIVEAWAY CLOSED


Giveaway
$45.00 Gift Certificate

One of my family's Christmas Eve traditions is to open one present. That present is a new pair of pajamas! So I am really excited to feature this giveaway from My Baby Pajamas with the holidays approaching!

Here is a little information on how she got started:

"From the time she was little, Linda Levine adored children and she looked forward to the day she would have children of her own. That day did come and she and her husband became parents of two precious little boys. Linda enjoyed all aspects of motherhood, especially each evening when she would slip her boys into soft and cuddly pajamas right after their bath and before story time. Originally from the Midwest and living between California and Arizona at the time, Linda and her family would go home to visit whenever they could. During those visits, many friends and family would ask her where she purchased the adorable pajamas they saw on her boys. Linda noticed that some of the great children's clothing available in her town weren't available where her friends and family lived. She saw a business need she could fill and launched My Baby Pajamas, LLC in 2007."

Linda is offering one lucky winner a $45.00 Gift certificate!

Woodshed Designs - GIVEAWAY CLOSED


Giveaway
Lindy from Woodshed Designs is giving one lucky reader a very beautiful Thanksgiving tablecloth. I contacted Lindy after I saw her work on Etsy. And instead of just writing a bio about her items. I thought I would post pictures instead. I am sure all of you can see why I did that :)


"The best thing about my product is that every stitch, every piece of fabric and how it matches up is thought about. I don't sit down and just sew. I look and think about where every log is placed upon another. I wonder if the consumer will care or even notice but the bottom line is that I care and notice the quality and placement of my fabric. I can only hope that others will feel the attention that I give to each one of my runners or pillow covers."
