Fit Factor Kids Review & Giveaway - Ends Nov 11

WINNER! #31-
Angela G said...E-mail subscriber



Fit Factor Kids recently sent me their workout video... not for me, for kids! These jumpy workouts were designed for elementary school aged kids (4 – 12) and they pack a lot of fun in.

What I really like about Fit Factor Kids is their focus on health-- not weight loss. The two main characters, Lizzy and Dean, are great athletes and the video is suitable for both girls and boys.
Lizzy is a gymnast and Dean does Karate. They focus on athletics and their studies, not weight loss, which I was glad about. The last message that I want to send to my kids is that they need to exercise as a means to start a lifelong obsession worrying about their weight. That's not what happens in these videos.There are six routines on the DVD designed to "improve children’s fitness. Children use their imaginations and learn how to take care of their bodies." Kids learn a range of activities including simple stretching, strengthening and aerobics. The music is bouncy and energetic-- it will probably get you dancing too! See a short preview:



I'm already known to pull out a yoga mat and do stretches with my kids. We frequently go to the park and run around. The DVDs are great because they encourage kids to get stronger through the routines, which means they will watch the DVD more than once. From the website:

According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) exercising regularly doesn’t just help reduce the risk of obesity, cardiovascular disease and diabetes. It helps develop and maintain healthy bones and lessens feelings of anxiety and depression.

The Fit Factor Kids DVD would make a great Christmas gift! It's perfect for a rainy day, a new family habit, or something to quickly turn on when the kids have way too much energy. :)

You can buy the Fit Factor Kids DVD for $19.99. There is a discount if you buy more than one copy. The DVD is 1 hour long.

Giveaway details: One reader will win their own copy of Fit Factor Kids on DVD!

The Modify Dress Review & *Giveaway* - Ends Nov 8 - CLOSED

This giveaway is now closed! Thanks for the great participation.

Winner: #72:

This and That said...I also entered your Fit Kids giveaway! November 4, 2009 6:42 AM


When I saw the Modify Dress by ModifyClothing.com, I knew I had to have it! Not only is this dress a time and money saver, as soon as I put it on I realized that it's quality too!

The idea behind the Modify Dress is that any woman can have a LBD (Little Black Dress) but that can get old. Not so with this dress because you can pick "wraps" that totally change the look.
The basic black dress comes in regular sizes and petite sizes. The material is quite soft-- that surprised me. Fabric is 94% Rayon and 6% Spandex. You can see below that the front of the dress is cinched. It's very slimming.
There many choices of wraps. As you can see below, wraps come individually packaged and clearly labeled. Also included in your order will be a helpful instructions (in color) that shows you how to tie the wraps in different ways. The types of wraps are Belt Halter, Criss Cross Loop, Short Wrap, and Long Wrap.
Warning: Provides hours of fun! :) I found the halter styles the easiest-- they take all of about 3 seconds. Getting the shoulder wrap style to look right was some work but well worth it. There are many more styles to be discovered... by you!

Check out a chart of the 12 basic styles you can make here.

MAJOR PLUSES: I am small busted (not a major plus) but the dress has light padding and shaping, so I didn't need to wear a bra. The Modify Dress also has elastic at the top so it isn't slipping down all day. It stays put! The material seems more wrinkle-resistant than normal clothing, probably because of the spandex, which is fabulous!

PAY ATTENTION: The dress is see-through in the skirt in bright light. A slip is necessary. Also, keep in mind this beauty is not machine washable. Be ready to hand wash and dry it.

The Modify Dress was created by Homa, a teacher-turned-fashion designer! She created the dress because "most girls buy a dress, wear it once, then stash it in the closet like yesterday's news." Homa is quite an ingenious problem-solver!

BUY IT: Right now, when you can buy the dress for just $44, you get 4 wraps along with it! For a limited time, buy the dress, get 4 wraps, and get an extra 2 wraps as a gift! The Modify Dress is a unique, affordable holiday gift-- it will be cherished all year long! I am so glad I have one and I plan on mixing it up with this dress! So versatile!

WIN IT: Would you ladies like to win a Modify dress and wraps of your choice? :) Homa has generously offered ONE of my readers the chance to win a Modify dress with 6 wraps of your choice! NOTE: Winner can pick from sizes small, small petite, medium, medium petite, or large petite. Regular large is not available in this giveaway, but is available to order.

Initial Request Review and *Giveaway* - Ends Nov 3 - ENDED

WINNER: Dolphin Girl said...

I would give the other bag to my sister. I think she would love it and I am exchanging gifts with her this Christmas in our family exchange.

October 24, 2009 7:46 PM




I never knew I liked monogrammed things until I won a giveaway sponsored by Initial Request. I've never owned anything monogrammed-- I barely knew what it was aside from super expensive towels. Soon I found myself the proud owner of a monogrammed, trendy tote bag! There were my colors:

Perfect Giraffe Tote - Green

My name was delicately sprawled in monogrammed cursive in the catchy lime green. The bag arrived at my door smelling SO good-- like new car smell or just cleaned carpets-- and now I want to tell you all about Initial Request!

Initial Request
brings you a fantastic selection of
monogrammed and personalized gifts, accessories, stationary, home decor and more!

I was thrown into the world of monogrammed sweetness and let me tell you, it brightens up any gift. Just take a peek at what Tanja, owner and Mom of Inital Request, designs:


Fleece Blankets by mint - Hot Pink Zebra $18.00

Tumbler - Giraffe Print

Tumbler - Giraffe Print $16.00


Butterfly - 18943

Butterfly Plate $25.00

Tanja is a beautiful artist, Mom, and business owner! I asked her about her biggest joys and challenges of running a small business:
Whew! Well, I run my operation out of my home...I have
a great shop attached to my garage. LOVE LOVE LOVE working out of my home. I
can run the machines in the middle of the night in my jammies if need be! I
walk to work which saves on gas ...LOL! and I have low overhead! BUT working
from the house also inspires local customers to show up at all hours of the
day or night any day of the week. My biggest challenge is learning to say
"no" or " It's Saturday night...I'm closed." My operation has grown so much
over the past 5 years. I'm amazed and grateful everyday! We work hard to
produce a quality website, provide trendy monograms and gifts and provide a
quick turn around for a truly unique and personal gift giving experience
without having to wait 3 weeks for delivery!
I also asked her to list the five items from her shop she can't live without:
1. Spa Wraps by mint (tm). Minky soft and easy launder! Come in a variety of sizes and prints. Mommy daughter combinations are great for holiday!
Women's Large Spa Wrap Chocolate Giraffe

Women's Large Spa Wrap Chocolate Giraffe $38.00

2. Christmas Frill Aprons for the holiday hostess. So trendy with a monogram! These are also available in zebra, giraffe and leopard prints for the animal in you! Solid color aprons are also available!

Christmas Frill Apron

Christmas Frill Apron $30.00

3. Fleece blankets by mint(tm) are a huge hit with children, tweens and college kids! Personalize it for the special gift recipient in your life!

4. Children's waffle weave robes! These are expected to be in within the week. Just like the adult version but for the kidlettes! These make great gifts and are perfect from season to season! 5. NEW!

Great as a wedding gift, as well!
Buy It: Initial Request has many great bargains for personalized holiday gifts. You can pick the colors, fonts, and patterns on many of the items. Since you are going to buy Holiday gifts anyway-- why not buy Mom-made and personalized?

Giveaway Time! Tanja has a special giveaway for one of my readers!

One reader will win a large cosmetic case for herself... AND another for a friend! That's TWO cosmetic cases that you can personalize any way you like! Perfect for the holiday season!
