Honey-Can-Do SRT-01603 Kids Toy Organizer and Storage Bins, White/Pastel

Just received it today, and had it up and filled with toys in less than 30 minutes. The bins looks and feel durable, the organizer alone feels sturdy. My son is 18 months old and no longer uses things to pull himself into a standing position, so I am not concerned with it falling on top of him. Wall mounts are something parents with younger children might want to look into though. I was a little put off with the fact that it took 5 days before it was shipped out, but was very pleased that I got on the second day (a big, big deal when you live in Hawaii) Read more »

Tot Tutors Book Rack, Primary Colors

Our son’s library got larger as gifts and donated books kept coming. For months now, he would try to pick out his favorite books from our shelving units. When we saw this item on amazon, we wanted to give this product a try to give our son the freedom to reach and choose his books. The price was excellent. When the product arrived, he helped us put it together in his room, which we believe gave him more appreciation for his furniture. Like us parents, this shelving unit gave him a higher interest in reading time since the books are now displayed at his level. To keep his interest, we rotate the books occasionally. Read more »

Constructive Eating Utensil Set

These quickly became our 2-year old girl’s favorite meal accessories. They’ve become our default gift too, because every time another kid sees these, they immediately have to have them. They look incredibly real, but they are easy to use, a good size for little hands to hold, but also big enough that we can hold them easily when helping her with tough stuff like pasta and soup. The pusher is especially useful, as she learns to grip and use the fork and spoon. Read more »

Cottonova Tuxedo Stripe, 450-Thread Count, 4-Piece Cotton Sheet Set, King, White

This is the second set of these sheets I’ve ordered, and love love love them. Let me preface that by saying I do NOT like ultra-soft sheets! I like a crisp sheet, but do not like it scratchy. These Cottonova sheets are just perfect. Very high quality cotton, despite it’s average thread count. Nicely made, well stitched, breathe well, wash well. They are by no means thin or flimsy. I believe these are listed as “deep pocket” which is not what I wanted, but found they fit my Sleep Comfort mattress perfectly. I ordered other sheets from Amazon a few weeks ago and didn’t notice they were “sateen”… UGH! Those have now been relegated to the guest room, and this set along with a set of 1200 count Egyptian cotton (very equal in quality in my book) are strictly for the master bedroom. Don’t hesitate to buy these sheets. Read more »

Therapeutica Sleeping Pillows - Size Average - Medium

Goodbye memory foam, hello Therapeutica. After trying various brands of memory foam, from really hard to mushy squishy, and trying other kinds of orthopedic shaped pillows that wore out really fast, and trying that water pillow which was the most uncomfortable thing I’ve ever slept on, I decided to take the plunge and dish out the bucks to get this pillow. Yes, it is a weird shape and looks odd on the bed next to my husband’s regular pillow, and yes, it is really different than anything I’ve ever owned before, but after a few nights on it, I discovered something: The reason I never used to sleep on my back is because the pillows I’ve used in the past did not make back-sleeping comfortable to me. This pillow is very comfortable for back and side sleeping, although it was apparently not designed for stomach sleeping because supposedly that is not good for your back. Well, to get straight to the point, after trying this pillow, I’m a believer. I was glad to read in another review that these pillows never wear out, but in case this one ever does, I will do my best to acquire another one of these treasures. I don’t worry about how this pillow looks on the bed; I just think about how good my back and neck feel after a night on it. Read more »

Pinzon Pyrenees Firm Density PrimaLoft Queen Pillow

After sleeping on these pillows for a year, they have flattened only a little. The firmness is just right for me (pretty firm) and is perfect for side sleepers. Not sure what else to say other than you won’t regret this purchase. Read more »
