Cold Refreshing Drinks

One thing I like to have on hand is a good water bottle. One that keeps my cold drinks cold all day long, and hot drinks hot for long periods of time. This 17oz water bottle from SunCraft is one of the choices out there. It is well made and will perform as stated, keeping cold drinks cool for 24-36 hours and hot drinks hot from 12-24 hours. 

When you are on the run with children in tow it is always a good idea to bring drinks along with you during the hot summer months. Stopping to buy drinks can be expensive and it ads up quickly. Bringing your own water or other cool drinks can save you both time and money. This water bottle is also available in the 25oz size and come in your choice of  black, mint, and ocean which I have pictured above. 

With this you can also reuse so no more bottles to recycle or send to the landfills saving everyone.

The SunCast water bottles can be found on my affiliate link below.

Rally Roll

* Some of the links in the article may be “affiliate links.” This means if you click on the link and purchase the item, I will receive compensation.  



Are you looking for a cool new game to play that can be taken on vacation and takes up pretty much no room? Then this game from Blue Orange Games might be a good one to get. It comes with a travel bag to store the dice and directions in between play. This is great for on the go fun, vacations, game nights, sleep overs, etc. Think camp where electronic devices are not allowed. 

Easy to play, slotted for ages 8 plus. You just roll and decide if you want to risk it all and roll again or pass. I can see over time our family modifying the game a bit too. The only downside is that it is such a small game that we actually misplaced ours but I know we will find it sooner or later and when we do I will post better pictures of it played in action. 

Rally Roll can be found on the affiliate link below.

TakeYour Medicine

* Some of the links in the article may be “affiliate links.” This means if you click on the link and purchase the item, I will receive compensation.  


Do you often forget to take a dose of your medication or do you know someone who needs reminding? Then this item might be right for you. First of all I want to suggest that if there are children who will be in the home at any time that this be kept out of their reach. The lock is really easy to use. 

This Medicine reminder takes 2 AAA batteries which are not included. You set the alarm to go off up to 6 times but remember this is in Military time so you are able to set it correctly the first time. The directions are pretty straight forward although I think the 3 second is much more like 6 seconds if you ask me. 

I always remember my morning or night medication but often if and when I have to take something else like and antibiotic then I need a reminder to take those other doses, and this item has been keeping me on time for taking my medication. I recently had a part of my wisdom tooth break off, causing an infection, and then was pulled out. I am in the healing stages, stitches come out late next week. This medication reminder came just in time to keep me on schedule with taking my medication on time. 

The Ddidak Medicine reminder with alarm can be found at my affiliate link below.

Dinner Dish

This item is so cute and can really be used at any age. It is made from 100% food grade silicone, is dishwasher safe, and is BPA free. This is great for babies learning to self feed, no more dishes or bowls thrown on the floor, great for toddlers, preschoolers, and even my nine year old daughter enjoys eating out of this because her foods stay separated. 

This is easy washes by hand or in a dishwasher, and so far has stood up to lots of use. Available in both blue and pink. What I love about this product is that it doesn't slip around when placed on a flat surface.
