Ryan's World.  Yep, I said it!!!  Are you familiar with this kid?  Well,let me back up.. do you have a small child in your life?  Do they watch You Tube?  If so, you have probably heard of Ryan.  He has a channel and Savannah loves watching it.  She put Ryan's World Toys on her Christmas list and looking at  the kids in her class, she isn't the only one!  (I even noticed one had on a Ryan's World t-shirt at school!)  When I heard that Ryan's World now had a gift pack in collaboration with Colgate, I knew I would want to get one for her.  Lucky for her, we received one for review, so she got an early surprise this holiday season!   FTC Compliant Review Policy:    The product(s) featured in this review were provided free of cost to me by the manufacturer or representing PR agency for the sole purpose of product testing.

October brings cooler weather, football and of course HALLOWEEN.  Do you dress up? Do your children?  Any clue what the costumes will be this year?  In preparation for Halloween, I wanted to share a few tips for oral hygiene. Good to know year round!  Any suggestions you would add?

Most kids may not even realize that parents took steps to m...

Just put a bit in my mouth, swish for a bit, spit, brush my teeth and be done with it.  Well, it isn't that easy!  Yes, that is what you do, but it is hard to swish all that oil around in your mouth.  The directions say to start with just swishing the oil for two to three minutes, working your way up to 15 minutes.  I thought the 15 minutes would be so easy, but when it was time to t...

With Halloween right around the corner, you can bet that there will be plenty of candy sold... and that means plenty of candy eaten!  I know that some dentists offices work out trades where they will "buy" the trick or treat candy from their patients and then they send it to soldiers overseas.  I think that is a great deal and pretty amazing for people to do that... For those of us that enjoy in the Trick or Treating (and especially the treats) of the night ... We need to make sure that proper oral hygiene is being done.  Broxton used to love to brush his teeth... He would want to brush his teeth several times a day... now, not so much.  He acts like it is pure punishment whenever I mention brushin...

Looking for stocking stuffers? Arm and Hammer has you covered!!! We found out that Arm and Hammer had a tooth brush called, Tooth Tunes . Well, as soon as we learned that the song played "We Will Rock You" I knew that it was something Broxton would love!  As soon as it came, we had to go brush our teeth! It is a kids toothbrush that plays 2 minutes of a song for you to brush your teeth.  They have 9 songs to pick from, so I am sure they will have one to get you going. Broxton has LOVED brushing his teeth with the new toothbrush, although we normally have to brush more than once, since he does get sidetracked singing and dancing!  We even had to take it for show and tell to school.  No, I did not let him take it... I took it in, IN A ZIP LOCK BAG when I picked him up and we "showed" his friends...  It made a lasting impression, as when I went to get him the other day, they were asking if I brought the tooth brush back again! Not wanting to leave mom out, ...

Okay, so now that I have your attention... Let me explain! Of course, I would love to see a bit of snow, but none of that craziness from last year... I am actually referring to the pearly whites of my teeth! Until I had the chance to work with Rembrandt, I really had not used it that much... But now, I am a Rembrandt girl! I love it! The way my mouth feels so clean. My breath so fresh! My My My!!!! Rembrandt wants YOU to have visions of sugar plums dancing in your head, while not worrying about the stain!!!! Not only will you get items for oral hygiene, you will also get a few special treats for baking!!! Talk about continuing a tradition, or making new ones!!!!!! Just look at the arrangement of items I was sent: A gingerbread making kit, peppermint spatula, and an apron for both mom and child, all packed together in a reusable snow flake grocery tote containing REMBRANDT ®, REACH® and LISTERINE® oral care products.
