DC Super Hero Girls + A $100 Visa Gift Card Giveaway

When it comes to popular comics, how many female superheros can you think of? I tried and thought of 2; Supergirl and Wonder Woman. Thanks to being introduced to the DC Super Hero Girls, I now know there many more, and they are full of action-packed girl power.

DC Super Hero Girls, comics, comic, girl power

As a father to a beautiful little girl, I her to grow up seeing powerful women in leadership roles. Of course she sees plenty of this with Going Mom (sometimes I have to run and hide……kidding!), but having something to watch like the DC Super Hero Girls on YouTube opens her up to a diverse group of a dynamic group of women with unique abilities and friendships.

From strong and fearless to quirky and fun, each DC Super Hero Girl exudes a quality characteristic for everyone to relate to. While I’m a fan of many comic superheroes, both guy and girl, I’ve never seen a group like the DC Super Hero Girls before. Check them out and watch with your kids to see who they like and relate to best.

And now, this powerful group of super hero girls wants to offer you a $100 Visa Gift Card! That’s pretty Super, huh? Just enter below for your chance to win.

Good luck, hope you enjoy the DC Super Hero Girls with your kids!

It’s the start of a new year, and the kind folks over at SnoofyBee are feeling generous enough to allow me to host a giveaway. One lucky reader will win a brand new SnoofyBee Clean Hands Changing Pad in the color/design of their choice.

I wrote a review of their changing pad a few months ago and have included it below for all to see again. We are still happy with the changing pad when we’re traveling as it truly does help to avoid…ummm, messy situations. Apparently, as toddlers get older, they get increasingly curious, even about….well, you know where’ I’m going. 🙂

Anyway, why not start the New Year with your little ones on “clean” slate and enter to win a Clean Hands Changing Pad today? The giveaway will end next Wednesday, 01/13/16. I will contact the winner for design choice and mailing info. Good luck!

I’ve come to terms with the fact that our little girl is not quite ready for serious potty training. Any parent, I’m sure, understands the allure of not having to change diapers anymore, but it’s something we all must accept. Thanks to the Clean Hands Changing Pad from SnoofyBee, accepting this fundamental part of parenting is much easier!

SnoofyBee Clean Hands Changing Pad

SnoofyBee recently sent me one of their Clean Hands Changing Pads to use and review, and I must say, diaper changes have become quite pleasant less messy. At first glance, it looked like a modern day sun reflector used to tan your face years ago.

But, this changing pad actually helps parents keep their cool by keeping their kids’ and their own hands free of pee or poo. I don’t know about your kids, but Avery’s curious little grabby hands seem to gravitate directly to the mess before us when changing her diaper. This leads to to us quickly trying to correct her movement only to end up with both of our hands tainted by poo.

Unless you’re one of the lucky ones with a kid that patiently remains idle as you clean and change them, you know what I’m talking about. I was skeptical of the Clean Hands Changing Pad at first, so I just kept it in the car to use when on the go. Well, one day as we were on the go, she went, meaning t it was time to put the SnoofyBee to the test.

The result? Easy-peasy! The velcro attachment for the barrier to keep her hands mess-free was simply to put on and worked like a charm. Plus, the high quality material folds up easily after using and conveniently holds diapers and wipes inside.

Just toss it in a purse or diaper bag and you’re good to go! SnoofyBee’s instructions help ease any reservations you have about how to use their changing pad, and even have a video to watch.

Easy, right? My only issue was the concern that Avery would absolutely hate having a cone around her head, but, with the exception of the first two times, this was not a problem. We even play peek-a-boo during changes where I hide behind the cone which yields sweet giggles every time. Raise your hand if you’d like to hear your adorable child’s giggles instead of whines as you clean their behinds?

I was going for a semi-rhyme there, just work with me. And I hope you raised your hands!

Now I confidently go out to run errands or to a trampoline park with the SnoofyBee in tow for any diaper changes. Before, I used to fear having to use whatever was available to the public for changing her, but now we have a safe, clean, and dependable changing pad. Here are the key features:

  • Sides attach to create a barrier that keeps your baby’s hands away from diaper mess
  • Waterproof wipe-clean surface
  • Portable hassle-free diaper changing anywhere
  • Folds small for parents on the go
  • Fits diapers, wipes and a change of clothes inside folded pad
  • Padding keeps baby comfortable on any surface
  • Baby’s hands remain free to play
  • Barrier adjusts to fit growing baby
  • Certified safe and PVC free

I wish we had the SnoofyBee many months ago when Avery learned to squirm and wriggle about, but even now, at almost 2 years old, it’s an awesome investment in a parent’s mental state and everyone’s hygiene.

Fear no poo or pee with the SnoofyBee!

SnoofyBee started with a goal of $15,000 on Kickstarter and now have almost $119k pledged as a result of happy parents all over. They will be funded today, 09/06/15 and you can get your own or give one as a gift (or both) now!
