Slanket Review and Giveaway






Hi Neighbors!

Here is a really great item for a Fall Festival.  You can get up early on a Fall morning and wrap up in your Slanket.  Or what better way to spend a fall evening then to curl up with a book and a nice hot cup of tea or coffee and relax.  The Slanket is a  fleece blanket with sleeves.  It measures 60" wide by 95" long.  And is it ever comfortable!  It is 100% Polyester Microfibers, really soft.  The sleeves are over-sized so you can move easily when using the Slanket.  The Slanket is available in several colors and is also available in kid's sizes and as a travel Slanket.  They even have a Siamese Slanket.  Nice and cozy for two!




The Slanket Story:

"One subzero night in 1998 during my first semester of college I could not escape Maine's winter bite. While watching Late Night with Conan O'Brien I decided I needed to tear a hole in my sleeping bag so I could keep my upper body warm as I channel surfed during the commercial breaks. During Christmas vacation I commissioned the first Slanket to be made by my mother...and it was born.

Everyone behind the The Slanket is on the same level when it comes to life. Besides creating a product to make people comfortable and warm, our life goals are not to accumulate mansions, SUV's, expensive watches and closets just for shoes. What we want in life is to travel the world and experience all its cultures while representing humanity positively. Whether surfing in Costa Rica, snowboarding in Austria, or studying language in South America and China, we love to spread our sleeves and let them flap in the wind, giving back in the process. BUT... there is nothing like coming home, wrapping up in THE SLANKET on your own couch and feeling the warmth of your friends and family.
"

The original Slanket runs $32.99.  If you are interested in the Kid's Slanket it is $21.99.  And the Siamese Slanket is $40.99.  You can order them online at slanket.com.  Need a travel Slanket? $24.99  Have you ever been traveling and someone else wants it colder than you do?  Bring your Travel Slanket!

What a great idea for a Fall Festival.  Slanket will be sending the winner of this giveaway one Slanket.

Since its already chilly here in PA, I would use my slanket now in the mornings and I would take it with me in the afternoon when I am getting my medical treatment at the docs office, it is always cold in there.

I would use my Slanket when I am home alone. This way I could turn the heat down low and save energy costs and still keep warm.

Thank you.

Baby First TV 'I Can Sign" First Words

Hey Neighbors! Here is a really neat gift idea for someone with a young child.  Here we have I Can Sign (First Words) from Baby First  TV.  Now, I am just going to share right here that we have friends who have taught two of their children to sign at a very young age.  And it works!  Their children could sign before they could talk. The Dvd will teach your child many useful words that will be used in day to day life.  Words like: eat, water, milk, cookie, ear, feet hands, kiss, sleep, book, mother, father, and many other words.  Each word is taught in a short video clip where they will see pictures of the word/item and people signing.  There is also a little character at the bottom corner of the video signing along.  The Dvd can be done on English or Spanish.  Also included on the Dvd are printable coloring pages that you can print off by inserting the Dvd into your computer.  Inside the cover of the Dvd case is a little booklet that covers some of the words you and your child

What To Do About Those Fuzzy Uninvited Guests In The Home

When we talk about pests in the home, the most common that we tend to deal with are the creepy-crawlies that find their way in. Ants, termites, and spiders, for instance. Occasionally though, you have a real chance of getting a much bigger, fuzzier unwanted guest in the home. What do you do about the fact your home is at risk of becoming a wildlife sanctuary for some truly unhealthy and even dangerous beasts? Picture by Alexas_Fotos Know the signs It doesn’t matter if you’re in a suburban home, a country cottage, or a fourth-floor apartment. Some animals can find their way just about anywhere. It’s worth knowing the signs of pest infestation so you can confirm it and act on it immediately. Spotting droppings, keeping an ear out for scratching, and looking for signs of nesting like shredded paper, scrunched leaves, and grass clippings around the home without explanation can help you start fighting back.

 Hey neighbors, its with a heavy heart I let you all know that my mom (Lori) unexpectedly passed away the end of June. Our family has been taking the time between now and then to be together and remember what a light mom was. I came on towards the end of last year and was planning on fully moving my interviews and review to this website. I intend to to so partially to keep mommas beautiful website going. Thank you all so much for your love and support over the years. ~Mercy
