Dino Lingo

I was chosen to review the products in the Momvoxbox from Influenster. Even though I did not receive the Cd to review i was given a chance to review the private Spanish lesson.  My son did not want it to stop. He was taking it all in like a sponge. It was a plus that it was on the computer he loves doing things on the computer. I think we may have found his Christmas present. 


The 5 DVDs / 100 flash cards / 1 poster / 1 calendar 1 picture dictionary booklet cost $99.95 with no tax. There is also a 30 day money back guarantee. Standard shipping cost $5.95, while international shipping cost $9.95. This would be an excellent tool to add to your child's learning. 

Quaker Soft Baked Oatmeal Cookies

I was one of the lucky moms out there that got picked to receive a MomVoxBox  from Influenster. When I opened the box my youngest son Jordan was sitting with me. Before I had a chance to see what it was he took it and ran off. I was surprised by this, but I opened it up for him and he ate it right up. See my son Jordan is Autistic and he is a very picky eater. He is also picky about his snacks. He hates raisins, I have never been able to get him to eat them . But he loved the Quaker Soft Baked Oatmeal Cookies. Ever since we received these when he sees a Quaker cookie box we have to buy it he thinks they are the same cookies. These are so great they come in their own wrappers so you can take them when you are on the run and they are way healthier then most cookies out there. 


I was given this product to test and give my honest opinion. I want to say a special thanks to Quaker and Influenster for the chance to try such a great product. 

The Many Uses of Ivory

Every time I smell the smell of  Ivory soap it takes me back to when I was young. We always used Ivory bar soap. I even remember when I was little looking for a whistle in my dads reffing bag, and finding a bar of Ivory soap in there. Now that I have a family of my own, we don't use bar soap, but that is okay, Ivory has a line of body washes out. they are just as good if not better then the bar soap, but that is just my opinion.  Ivory bar soap is



I received  a MomVoxBox from Influenster, and I was so happy to see a bar of Ivory soap in it. So instead of it sitting on my shelf getting no use out of it, I made bath crayons for my son Jordan. He loved it he is a fish, would love to live in the water if he could and he thought it was so neat that he could draw in the shower and the bath tub. They were so easy to make to, anyone could do it.


Homemade bath Crayons




1 cup grated Ivory Soap 
1/4 cup warm water 
Food Coloring 
Plastic Cookie cutters 

Mix water, soap & food coloring together in med. size bowl. Stir the crayon mixture until it begins to stiffen. Remove the mixture from the bowl and knead until it is the consistency of a very thick dough. Spoon Crayon Mixture into plastic cookie cutters or other plastic molds (playdough molds work great too!). Press down firmly. Place the plastic cookie cutters in your freezer for 10 mins or in your refrigerator for 30 mins. When firm, Pop the bath crayons out of the cookie cutters (or other molds) and allow them to air dry overnight or until hard.

The great thing about this is that the Ivory is 99.44% pure so it is safe for your little ones skin. It is also free of dyes and heavy perfumes. It is so cheap to, you can find a 10-pack of Ivory bar soap retails for around  $4.49.


I want to say a big thanks to Influenster and Ivory. I  received this product complimentary for testing purposes from Influenster and Ivory as a participant in the Mom VoxBox campaign
