Mod Mum's The Man Sling Winner's Review

This is my Winner's Review of the Mod Mums Man Sling I won at Sugar Pop Ribbons.  Wow, my second win at Sugar Pop Ribbons.  I love the look of this sling.  It's pretty manly that's for sure.  I received a deep olive green sling which I plan on giving to my darling hubby.  He is not really a baby-wearing-parent and always blamed it on the "girlie" slings I have for myself. So, when I won this giveaway, I took the opportunity to choose something not so "girlie" that he could use!

My darling hubby has not really had a chance to use the sling so, I am going to speak about the construction and craftmanship of the Mod Mum Sling.

This sling is very well constructed, made from a super durable Army (dark olive) green cotton canvas. It's definitely not a girlie looking thing. :)
It also has a wonderfully large pocket on the front of it, which will be pretty handy to hold credit cards and money when shopping! Lastly, I like the idea of the padding for the legs.  On other slings I own there is no padding and the fabric cuts into my daughter's legs after an hour or so in the sling.  That usually causes her to demand, "Outs, Outs Mumma,  outs, boo boo leggy!" It pretty much means we need to brings a stroller along too.  I am hoping this sling will eliminate the need to bring that hefty stroller around. I do have a sling with the padding and it does seem to keep her in it longer. And since I know the padding works on the other slings, I am sure it will work with my hubby's new sling!

I'd like to thank Sugar Pop Ribbons for hosting the giveaway of a really great product and to Mod Mum for generously donating the sling to Sugar Pop Ribbons.

Tiny Tongs Winner Review

At Sugar Pop Ribbons, I won a pair of TinyTongs.  These are tong like eating utensils for toddlers and young children.  I was a little skeptical of them when I first received them.  But, after a couple of days of my daughter using them, I could see they were very useful.

It took a good two days of use before my Princess Addison (18 months) got the hang of using the TinyTongs and soon her older brother Xavier, he's 4, wanted to try them.  He immediately liked them and wanted to use them more often.  I also found a few other uses for them myself.  They are great for pulling out toast stuck in the toaster, as well as, English muffins that were too short.  I've saved a few fingers from burns already! I also used them to flip foods in the microwave and in the toaster oven. For those uses alone the beat a fork, hands down!

I'd like to thank Jenn from Sugar Pops Ribbons for this awesome giveaway. as well as, TinyTongs for donating them to her for review and me for winning! Yay!  I suggest you head to Jenn's blog Sugar Pop Ribbons and check out all her great baby related product reviews and giveaways.  Why should you purchase a pair of TinyTongs for your toddler or preschooler?
