Summer in the South: Kidorable Review & Giveaway

I am always looking for cute things to buy my boys. I've been on the look out for hooded towels for them for a while. We are always at the lake in the water, so I wanted to get them something that would work better than an ordinary towel.

Then I came across Kidorable! They are exactly what their name says! They have the most adorable items ever! And it's all for the little ones! They have umbrellas, rain coats, rain boots, backpacks, knit hats, knit scarves, knit gloves, towels, sun hats, embroidered shirts, hanger sets, and bookends! Click HERE to browse through the whole line!

For my review I received 4 items. The dolphin and pirate umbrellas and the fireman and pirate towels! The umbrellas are perfect for us! If you have ever lived or visited Mobile, AL, you know how much it rains here! We get A LOT of rain. My boys are always wanting to hold the umbrella. I'd let them, but since they are so short, I'd literally be left out in the rain! Now, they have their own umbrellas. Ones that they, themselves, picked out! And, they are so Kidorable! :) They want to bring them out even when it's not raining! They are kid sized, so they fit their little hands perfectly! I love them and they love them, what more could you ask for!

The towels are perfect for us as well! And once again, they want to walk around the house wearing them when they don't need them. The nice thing about the towels is that they are hooded and can be buttoned. So, when we are leaving the lake and get into the air-conditioned truck, they can keep them on so they wont get cold, and they wont get their car seats wet. They fit around them nice to where the seat belt and straps can still be on them! My problem, solved! The pirate towel has an eye patch on the hood and the fireman towels' hood is just like a fireman hat! They love that! They really feel like they are a pirate and fireman!

Overall, I am in love with Kidorable! I want to buy so much stuff from there! With so many cute items to choose from, I will be back there again and again! :)

ToweLocs Review

I bet the majority of you mothers out there have the same problem I do. Your child brushes their teeth, or washes their hands, pulls the towel down to dry off, then leaves the towel on the counter/floor. Later you go and find it, only to find that it's still wet. Most of the time, you need to wash it after that. Oh joy! More laundry! Do you sence the sarcasm?

That's why when I recieved a ToweLocs in the mail, I was thrilled! I opened up the package, and found a pretty blue ToweLocs, along with instructions on how to use it. My first though was, 'this will match perfectly in the boys' bathroom, and I need to get it in there NOW!'. So, that's what I did. It was very simple to put on, and looked great with the colors of their bathroom.

Since then, I don't have to go in there, at least 3 times a day, to make sure the towel is hung and drying. That's a blessing to me. One less thing to think about. Plus, it's held on there good enough that they wont be able to pull the ToweLocs off. Score again!

TOWELOCS STORY

ToweLocs® was created by Cindy Sawyer, a mom who was repeatedly frustrated every time her hand towels fell off the towel bar and when her kitchen towels did the same upon opening her oven door. This was also compounded when her two young children, Keelan and Skylar, could not help themselves and leave their hand towels on the bathroom floor after each use. As you may imagine, this was an everyday event in any typical household.

So she wanted to find a way to not only secure her towels in their rightful place but to also do it with some style. This sparked the invention of ToweLocs® . After numerous prototypes and designs, she decided on a final product that exists today. She was inspired to market her invention when she received multiple compliments on what has now become a practical household product and how it accentuated her bath and kitchen towels.
Not only is ToweLocs® functional it is also decorative.
We hope you enjoy ToweLocs® !

If you have problems keeping your towels where they are supposed to go, I strongly suggest you get a ToweLocs! It will make your life a little bit easier! They range from $13.99-$19.99. Go BUY one!
