Evenflo Introducing The New Pro-Comfort Protection Car Seats.

I personally love Evenflo's products so when I had the opportunity to hear about there New Improved features I couldn't wait. Evenflo came up with some great new idea's to help make Parents and children's ride more comfortable and safe, so parents can focus on the road.

NOTE: I was invited to this event as Media, I received a Manicure &pedicure.  All personal views are 100% my own.

The New Pro-Comfort  Protection Series Line of Car Seats includes The symphony,Triumph and Amp LX High Back Booster Seat these car seats are made with a Gel-Matrix cushion that equalizes pressure points and improve blood flow.  We all have had that moment while driving and the baby is screaming his/her head of because there uncomfortable.  The Gel-Matrix prevents the buildup of pressure points which create discomfort over time,  The Gel-Matrix Provides baby with long term and short term comfort making short trip and long road trips more enjoyable.

This is a great feature for babies and will help parents from having to look back while driving to try and calm baby,  preventing accidents or having to pull over to calm baby delaying the trip.  A few simple changes to help make parent's life a little simpler.  The Gel-Matrix is one of the many brilliant features Evenflo Car Seats have to offer, read more about the other series of car seats on a previous post I did, read about it here Evenflo Symphony DLX All-in-one Car Seat Review

Installing a car seat is always the biggest headache, In fact studies show that 80% of car seats are put in incorrectly.  Most new cars have the hidden low anchors that make attaching a car seat easier and safe. Getting to those hidden Low anchor's aren't always easy.  Evenflo's new SureSafe System reduces incorrect installation by 50%.  The latch guides attach to the hidden lower anchors of the vehicle where it can stay for easy use.  Simply attach the quick connectors located on the seat safely and easy. The picture above gives demonstration of how the Latch Guides work.

Proper installation is the most vital part to a child's car seat, which is why the SureSafe System brings you:

• Latch guides, which act like a tunnel making it a clinch to find your vehicles lower anchors.
• Quick Connector LATCH to reduce misuse by 50%
• Buckle pockets for added innovation and safety

SureSafe System did a test against their competitor passing the 1 inch movement test, ensuring that the seat latches do not move more than 1 inch in either direction when tugged.


The new SureSystem will be available exclusively at Walmart beginning in August.  The Systems will be featured on the award-winning Evenflo Symphony and Triumph models in addition to the Sure Ride  and Embrace Select models.  Now last but definitely not least my most favorite feature on Evenflo's car seats the buckle pockets,  We all have experienced putting our babies into the car seat on a hot summer day and the buckles are hot. Some cases the buckles are so children.  Evenflo's buckle pockets tuck the buckle tongues away, making it safe and easier to get a child in and out of the car seat and protecting kids skin from hot buckle burns.

The Evenflo Symphony LX with SureSafe All-In-One Car Seat cost $199.97, Evenflo Triumph LX with SureSafe Convertible Car Seat cost $149.97, Evenflo SureRide DLX with SureSafe COnvertible Car Seat cost $99.97, Evenflo Embrace Select with SureSafe Infant Car Seat cost $99.97.  All These car seats are sold at Walmart and  walmart.com

Working Out with BOB Strollers Revolution PRO and FLEX #BOBSays

To celebrate the debut of two new additions to their line, BOB strollers hosted a fun event at Sports Club/LA, where attendees had a first look at the new Revolution PRO and Revolution FLEX strollers.

Note: I was invited as media to this event and received a stroller for review purposes. Any personal views expressed are always 100% my own.

During the event, we enjoyed activities including stroller racing as well as learning how to get in a workout with the stroller. These activities allowed me to get a feel for how the stroller moves and feels doing everyday activities.

These stroller are great for parents who are active and would enjoy walking or jogging around the park. These BOB's high quality strollers are durable and made for all terrain experiences.

At the event I also learned that BOB's strollers is now partnered with Britax, another well known company for childcare products. BOB Stroller Revolution PRO and the Revolution FLEX are available as both Single and Duallie (two seats) strollers. They include advanced features and a variety of color options.

After the event, I received my very own BOB Revolution PRO to take home an review. One of the features that impressed me while using was the new handle bar. It adjusts to nine different positions to fit the height of any parent. My husband and I can appreciate this feature since I am 5'1 and he is 6'1. Adjustable handles makes it easy for him to use the BOB's stroller and feel comfortable.

Both models are designed with many of the popular Revolution SE features, including:

• Swiveling front wheel, which offers superior maneuverability and locks forward for increased jogging stability

 KJ and I attended a Bob's Stroller Event for the release of there upgraded version of the Revolution SE, The Revolution Flex and Revolution Pro.  These strollers are for all outdoor journeys and very durable. The Revolution Flex and Pro come in single and duallie (two seats).

These stroller are a must have for all parents who are active and loves jogging,  BOB's high quality strollers are durable and great for active families. This is great for me right now,  I cant make it to the gym but I can go for a morning jogs with my little guy strapped in safely.  These strollers are made for  all terrain sport experiences from a  family walk in the park to a jog around the park.

It is extremely easy to use the Revolution Pro, easy to handle and a smooth ride for baby. BOB's strollers are now partners with Britax another well known company for  childcare products. BOB strollers are suitable for babies 8 weeks and older, you can use it from birth with the BOB infant car seat adapter and  BOB be safe car seat.



The Revolution Flex and The Revolution Pro include advanced features and a variety of fresh color options, The only difference between the Flex and Pro is The pro has a new handle bar that adjust to nine different positions perfect fit for any parents height.  My husband and I can appreciate this feature since I am 5'1 and he is 6'1 this makes it easy for him to use the BOB's stroller and feel comfortable.

The Pro Stroller is also now equipped with hand activated rear drum brakes for extra control on hills and deep inclines, The strollers can get a little heavy especially with the baby in them so in case it gets to heavy and you can't support the weight you can squeeze the hand activated drum brake to stop the stroller and gain better control.  These Pro strollers come in two new colors wilderness green and black & orange with all silver
frames.


The Flex Stroller also comes with the adjustable Hand bar to adjust to every parents height and the color options are now black with black frame, orange with silver frame, and Lagoon (aqua blue)with silver frame.  Both Strollers still have many of the great popular features the Revolution SE has,  To name a few the swiveling front wheel which offers great maneuverability and locks forward for a more increased and stabilized run, state of the art adjustable suspension system for an amazing ride. The suspension system is awesome I think that is my favorite thing about these strollers, The suspension system has another level once your baby reaches the weight limit you hit a switch and the stroller adjusts the suspension to babies new weight, How cool is that?!

Shalom Sesame Event

I attended a Shalom Sesame event, Grover was there dressed in his best disco outfit and afro, He help introduce the shalom Sesame's new series of 22 two-minute clips.

Note: I was invited as media to this event. Any personal views expressed are always 100% my own.

The clips featured each letter of the Hebrew alphabet. In the video's an animated Grover danced and moved around while teaching the Hebrew alphabets and four Hebrew vocabulary words that start with each Hebrew letter.

Shalom Sesame is a multimedia project for children 2-8 years old, It is designed to engage families in learning about Jewish heritage,celebration and Israel culture.  The video was entertaining and captured the Jewish language. My 5 month old son KJ was glued to the TV watching the clips, he was smiling and he really enjoyed Grover getting down.

It is great to see Sesame Street teach about a different cultures and making it fun learning for children and Adults. Sesame Street  has always focused on cultural learning and I am to see them continue doing so.

I went on the Sesame Shalom website, I learned a few things about the Jewish culture that I didn't know, the reading and pronunciation of there letters, the name of the foods that are cooked and the Hebrew Alphabet has 22 letters.

SkipHop Baby Products and Bags Preview

I was so ready for this SkipHop event, I couldn't wait to see all the new toys, diapers bags and accessories SkipHop were featuring.  My two personal favorites were the baby bags and the toys for teething children since right now my 5 month old is teething.

Note: I was Invited as media to this event and a received a sample Diaper bag.  All personal views are 100% my own.

Here is a display of some of the great new toys.

Ellie the elephant he comes with detachable teething rings around his neck which I LOVE it's made for mom to wear it around her wrist.  While KJ is sitting on  my lap he can bite and chew away on the teething ring instead of my jewelry or my hand.  Each toy does something unique and entertaining for baby.

Skip*hop gave a tour of where the mastermind idea's are made,  As we walked around we saw models and samples, we even got a look at how the toys are made from clay figures into toys.  It was all very interesting Seeing it all come together.   Toy owls are becoming  the new "It" toy for children and Skip*hop is joining the trend.  These toys are fun and help stimulate babies as they learn to move and grab.

 The Skip*hop diaper bags are great, they have a lot of room and compartments that has zip closure with fashion & style.  The diaper bags has so many helpful and convenient features 10 pockets including 2 elasticized mesh side pockets for bottles, Front zip pocket with easy access tech pocket,grab handles & adjustable shoulder strap.

In mid June Skip*hop will come out with the Duo Special Edition tote diaper bags have a wipeable fabric  These bags are eye catching.

I am using a Skip*hop diaper bag, these bags are great the compartments make it so easy to find everything it helps me be organized instead of throwing every thing into one compartment and when I need to find something I cant. I love the smart phone pocket  I can just tuck my phone in zip it up and be on my way.  The bag is comfortable.  The last diaper bag I had it came with a thin flimsy changing pad but Skip*hops changing pad is soft and well padded for my baby's body.

 As soon as I saw the book bags, raincoats and  matching umbrella I thought of leah she would love all of of them.  My 3 year old is a girly girl and would love to match a Animal rain coat with her umbrella.  The book bags are adorable with the animal characters and very fashionable.The storage bins definitely come in handy and would brighten up a kids room or area.

Skip*hop has so much other great things like the Grab & Go Wet/dry bags what a great idea it contains leaks and odors for wet clothes or dirty diapers.  Not too long ago while My family and I were at a restaurant  KJ had an explosive diaper and messed up his clothes I wished I had this bag that day to put the clothes in and lock away the odor.

There is so much more.  Skip*hop has the right idea's and know what we parents need for our children.  The prices are affordable and the quality of the product are great.
