***Disclosure: I received this product for free from Smiley360 in exchange for my honest review. You can join Smiley360 here.*** Here in LeBron country, AKA NE Ohio, cold and flu season is in full swing. Everywhere I look, people are sniffling and sneezing, and I am hoping that the "winter sickies" spare my household of their misery. Of course just because we're not ill doesn't mean we're free of sniffles. When it gets cold, runny noses...well, they just kind of happen. It seems that every time we head outdoors, I am reaching into my purse to wipe snot from little noses. (I know, not a very glamorous description, but hey, it's the truth!)
Since we use SO many tissues this time of year, I am always thinking about the amount of waste produced. Think about it...With so many people grabbing their tissues, that's a lot of extra trash going into our landfills, and more trees being cut down. So when I learned that the folks at Scotties plant 3 trees for every 1 that they cut down, I was definitely quite impressed. I love when a brand takes the time to help the environment rather than just hurting it. Giving back is so important, don't you agree?

No other compensation was provided, and all opinions are 100% honest and have not been influenced in any way.*** When my oldest child was little, I used to work at his school. This was actually pretty great, because when he started his first day of Kindergarten, I was starting my first day there, too! I actually worked at Kyle's school for his first 3 years of attendance, and I loved being able to have an inside-look at how his school days went.
One of the things I loved most about my job was the fact that I got to work with so many different children, from different walks of life. We had lesson plans, helped with homework, and of course, there was plenty of crafting. One craft involved itty-bitty little beads, and a hot iron. Of course the ironing wasn't something we allowed the kids to do on their own. Can you imagine handing a small child an iron?! Yeah, me either. So I did the ironing for them....And even in the careful hands of an adult, the iron proved to be hazardous. Truth be told, I still have a scar from one of the times I accidentally burned myself. After that, I have stayed far, far away from those heat-treated bead kits. ***Disclosure: I received complimentary samples to facilitate my review.

You can check out my 2014 Holiday Gift Guide at any time from now till Christmas. Make sure to check often, as it will be growing by the day! Today, I want to talk about a classic. Actually, a new spin on a classic! As you all probably know, Radio Flyer has been around for generations. My parents had Radio Flyer growing up, I had Radio Flyer, and now my kids do, too. No Holiday is ever complete without a shiny red wagon or trike under the tree. In fact, seeing a shiny red wagon with the Radio Flyer logo on it was probably one of my favorite childhood memories. No matter how old you get, you never forget your first Radio Flyer. Gotta love companies who stand the test of time. Seeing my kids in their classic red wagon makes me feel all mushy and nostalgic inside! Both bloggers and our readers all have a fond love for a great giveaway.
