Holiday Gift Guide GIVEAWAY: OC Daisy Napbag 11/28

When I was a kid, I remember going to my Grandma's house for the weekend. At the time, she had a very small house so my brother and I would sleep in her living room. One of us would sleep on the sofa bed, and the other would camp out in a sleeping bag on the floor. My Grandma got me a cute Barbie sleeping bag for just these occasions, and I remember loving it! I think every child deserves to have their own special sleeping bag to take with them for sleepovers, to preschool, or even just a trip to Grandma's house. There's something special about having that sleeping bag of their own.

Well, the folks over at OC Daisy understand just how important having that special travel blanket is, and they have taken sleeping bags to a whole new level with their luxurious, plush Napbags! Napbags are not your ordinary sleeping bag. These unique are fun, trendy, and oh so soft! Featuring a built-in sleeve and removable pillow, a handy inside pocket and super-soft double-sided minky fabric, this all inclusive sleeping kit will insure your little one sleeps in comfort and style wherever they go. The Napbag is available in 16 gorgeous styles for girls and boys alike.

I was thrilled to receive the Cheetah Pink Purse/Shoes Napbag for my review. This is just my Sophie's style, and as soon as she saw it, her little eyes lit up! Aside from the adorable design, the first thing I noticed about the Nap Bag was the superior quality of both the construction and the materials. Often times, products geared towards younger kids are not  made very well. They may not be high quality fabrics, and sometimes they're not very well put together. With the Nap Bag, this is not at all the case. The Napbag is made of a ridiculously soft minky and features expertly embroidered appliques and even a comfy, satiny pillow perfect for those little heads when a child is all tuckered out after a day of adventurous play. The folks at OC Daisy did not skimp on quality one bit!

The Napbag is very generously sized and is designed to endure years of use. When unfolded, the Napbag measures 30" wide by 50" long (not including the attached carrying bag).  When folded into the attached carrying bag, the NapbagTM measures 18" wide, 14" high and 6" deep. I love the size of the Napbag, as it can be used by my daughter as she grows! I don't have to worry that in a year or so, she will outgrow the Napbag. I know she'll happily  tote this everywhere we go for years to come! (And she'll look awfully darn cute doing it!)

Another great thing about the OC Daisy Napbag is that it is machine washable. (Hooray!) With kids, accidents happen. Maybe they like lounging around with a big bowl of ice cream. Well, messes happen. Ice cream gets drippy and gloopy. If there happens to be a mishap and the Napbag gets dirty, simply wash on the warm gentle cycle and dry on low heat. Viola! Good as new!

But the really cool thing about the Napbag is that it is highly portable. This awesome sleeping system literally rolls up and tucks inside the attached carrying bag! The Napbag features soft, satiny carrying handles that are the ideal size for little hands to grab. There is even an inside pocket to stow away pajamas or even that favorite teddy bear. The folks at OC Daisy really have thought of everything when they designed their Napbags!

Take a look at the OC Daisy Napbag! Isn't this adorable?!

Here is the Napbag in its carrying case.

Sitting pretty in the Napbag!

But the best thing about the Napbag by OC Daisy? My daughter LOVES it! Just look at that smile! Sophie is a very girly girl, and she loves all things soft and cuddly. She also tends to like prints and designs with a touch of attitude. The Cheetah Purse/Shoes Napbag fits her individual style perfectly, and definitely complements her diva-like personality. Yes, at 2 my daughter is already a diva! It may be because Daddy spoils his little princess so much! Sophie loves the feel of the Napbag, and she is constantly rubbing the soft, luxurious minky against her face. She also loves the soft, satiny pillow! One time, she tried to get Xander, her 10 month old brother into the Napbag. He is a bit too small for it though, so I wouldn't allow that to happen, much to her dismay!

I have a very difficult time getting Sophie to sit still when the camera comes out, so to get these photos, I had to hand her an issue of Cosmo to flip through and keep her occupied long enough for me to get some pictures. Yes, she likes going through magazines and seeing make-up and pretty clothing. Whenever I put on my own make-up, she watches very intently with a huge grin on her face. She has even tried to get into my purse and put make-up on herself! (Thank Goodness for zippers!) Like I said, she is a girly girl to the umpteenth degree! Sophie is very active and does not like sitting still for more than a few seconds. But she gladly got into her Napbag with my issue of Cosmo, and I got some great pictures.

Hey Sophie, you're a bit too young to be ogling shirtless men!

Snug as a bug in a rug! A very soft, plush, cuddly rug, that is!

Overall, I am thrilled with the OC Daisy Napbag. This sleep system is so soft, made of luxurious materials, and is definitely built to last. I know Sophie will feel like a little princess as she totes her Napbag around for many years to come. No doubt, she will be the envy of all of her friends! I love the portability of the Napbag and the fact that it has the inside pocket making packing for sleepovers a breeze. The Napbag will also fit into standard preschool cubbies! With 16 trendy styles to choose from, the hardest part will be choosing which design to buy, since they are all absolutely gorgeous.  I also love that this great bag is machine washable. As a mom, this is so important to me. I cannot say a single negative thing about the OC Daisy Napbag. I think every kid should have one! Now I need to convince my husband to let me get one for Xander to use when he's a little older! I don't want him to try and take over Sophie's pink Cheetah print Napbag! So definitely check out the Napbag by OC Daisy. This would make a wonderful Holiday gift for the child in your life!
