Parenting can be a messy proposition with a lot of options. Here at ChiIL Mama we're always on the lookout for useful baby and kid gear that makes our lives easier, safer, and better. That's why we're happy to partner up with DaffaDoot on this sponsored post via US Family Bloggers. We're offering a 20% discount to our readers on any of the 3 items below, which can be easily ordered on Amazon. They're sending us a seat protector, so we'll have a full review up, once we have a chance to run it by our rigorous kid field testing. In the meantime, here's some savings for you.
ChiIL Mama's Readers Receive 20% off on orders of any or all of the DaffaDoot Products Below using Promo Code HWBLFYLE
*Auto Seat Protector - amazon.com/dp/B0788HY2QS Here at ChiIL Mama I'll be reviewing the Auto Seat Protector, so check back soon for my full review. *Car mirror - amazon.com/dp/B077JJZZLZ *Crib Wedge - amazon.com/dp/B074BPBTTN DaffaDoot Baby Reflux Wedge Pillow. For babies who frequently suffer from reflux or dramatically spit-up. It's a safe, sound baby reflux treatment which gently elevates the baby's head and torso to help alleviate discomfort due to frequent stomach acid or frequent spitting up. Happy baby equals happy parents!
What makes the DaffaDoot Reflux Wedge Pillow special: Many wedges are "foldable", which means that it's actually two smaller wedge pieces held together by a cover. In other words, it is split and can "gap" under baby. Foldable wedges are marketed as "convenient to store"... but this feature degrades its performance. It's better to have a wedge which focuses on performance instead of focusing on easy storage. Foldable wedges, since they are in multiple pieces, are also more likely to shift around. Our wedge is a single, stable, correctly sized piece with a non-skid bottom and a hypoallergenic, waterproof casing. The zipper is at the back of the wedge (to keep it well away from baby) and our foam is the perfect firmness (not too soft, not too hard). It meets and exceeds federal safety regulations. These regulations dictate that the wedge must extend the entire width of the crib mattress (27"). Anything else is not snug enough.We are using an eco-friendly zippered bag to package our wedge. This can be used to store your wedge in later, or as a blanket bag today. SPECIFICS ABOUT DAFFADOOT: DaffaDoot is all about family values, and we are on a mission to improve the lives of everyone we can reach. We are a Mother/Daughter team, and proudly donate our time and money to numerous organizations supporting pregnant moms-to-be, new parents, battered women, and school age children. We are insanely committed to providing the best customer service on the planet and delivering only the highest quality products available.
Happy Times! DaffaDoot Brings It! Disclosure: Here at ChiIL Mama, it's our pleasure to partner up on this sponsored post. I have been compensated by DaffaDoot for sharing this discount with my readers. As always, all opinions are my own.

Here at ChiIL Mama, we're huge fans of renaissance festivals and we're pleased to partner up with US Family Guide to promote the 30th annual Arizona Renaissance Festival & Artisan Marketplace. We've done 30+ features on our local Bristol Renaissance Faire, near Chicago, over the years, and I'm excited to report, my 17 year old son just got cast as a juggler, villager, and maypole dancer for this summer! We've also enjoyed road tripping 6 hours to the Ohio Renaissance Festival and spending two days covering their fun annual fest. This year we're venturing even farther, flying to Arizona for a weeklong travel feature on the Phoenix, Scottsdale, Sedona area. We're beginning our adventures with a trip not only across the country, but back in time, to visit the Arizona Renaissance Festival. Check back in April for our photo filled recap.
Fun For the Whole Family The Arizona Renaissance Festival is a medieval amusement park, a 13-stage theater, a 30-acre circus, an arts and crafts fair, a jousting tournament and a feast -- all rolled into one non-stop, day-long family adventure!

Here at ChiIL Mama, we start with the healthiest, gentlest solution first, when faced with healing. So I was thrilled when healtop reached out via US Family Bloggers and asked us to do a review. We were sent a complimentary trio of samples for review purposes.
They have sets for all ages from infants to adults as well as individual products to boost immune systems, eliminate acne, detox, and more.
Healtop productsare great for gifting to friends or giving yourself and your family the gift of healing with 100% natural products that are naturopath approved. Go beyond candy for stocking stuffers, Hanukkah gifts, and advent count downs with a healthy gift that will last.
My kids are now 14 & 16, and acne is an ongoing struggle, so we opted to try the Teenagers Package. All 3 samples we were sent in the teenagers bundle smell fabulous and work wonders. The fewer chemicals and harsh medicines on my teens' skin, the better. If we can get great results with natural products, then I'm in. I'll admit, my husband and I still get acne sometimes, too, even though we're well past the teen years, so I tried these out as well and liked the results. The clear skin spray is simple to apply and smells terrific, as does the sweet feet oil blend, that's migrated to my gym bag. The skin repair oil is thicker and slicker, so we were only applying that one at night. It also has a more pungent scent my kids bulked at a bit, but they couldn't argue with the outcome. We all had noticeably clearer skin in just a few days. This terrific trio lives up to their labels. After incorporating these natural products into our skin care routines we did "feel great" indeed. Click here to check out the Teenagers Package This is a bundle of 3 natural amazing products for teenagers. 2 products for treating acne and oily irritated skin and one for athlete foot. Products under a major discount so buy now and save.
Price as configured: $48.75 CLEAR SKIN clear skin - 100% herbal spray to calm and rejuvinate red skin +$11.45
SKIN REPAIR skin repair - special serum for irritated red skin +$28.01
These are simple to order via Amazon and products I can feel confident letting my kids use. Don't get fooled by cheap, ineffective imitations full of impurities and additives. Healtop is the real deal.

Here at ChiIL Mama, we're pleased to partner up with JORD high quality, wood watches for the holidays. They offered us a complimentary watch for review purposes along with a pre black Friday deals access, a wonderful $100 giveaway, and a 25% off discount code for our readers. As always, all opinions are my own.
First: Here's a fun little Easter Egg Code that gets our readers in to secret Black Friday Deals early!
Secret pre black Friday SALE starts today for ChiIL Mama's lucky readers!
Review: We chose the Fieldcrest Dark Sandlewood style ($139) to review and I was excited to discover it fits both my 16 year old son and me! JORD watches are great for gift giving, since they come in a gorgeous box, with lots of sweet extras like finishing oil and cloths. These watches are comfortable, unique and stylish and I'm already getting compliments on mine. I'm thrilled with the quality craftsmanship and the variety of styles available. There's a lovely resurgence of interest in watches now that the novelty of checking the time on cell phones has worn off. We highly recommend Jord watches for both men and women on your gift list. In case you want to sound smart and in the know, JORD is pronounced like TOAD with a Y instead of the T like Swedish for Earth/Ground or Thor's Mom, the giantess/goddess from Norse mythology! How cool is that?
Hand-crafted wood timepieces
Raw material, refined design
About JORD: JORD is run by artists, designers, marketers, and minders. We spend our days creating, considering, arguing, and hopefully agreeing. Then we'll scrap it all for the joy of starting new. We have fun. This is our journey. We are focused on creating timepieces that are modeled after a modern lifestyle. We value sustainability, efficiency, and experiential living. We make our watches for people who don't just have somewhere to be, they have somewhere to go. The value of a watch is not in being able to tell how much time has passed, but in being aware of the need to make that time count. Moments are bigger than minutes and your watch should tell more than time.
My kids are heading back to school on Tuesday after Labor Day, so we've been doing much more shopping than usual. And our family menagerie of two big dogs, four guinea pigs, and schools of tropical fish constantly need food and supplies. My job is to find coupons that make that prospect more affordable. Here at ChiIL Mama we're pleased to partner up with Groupon and US Family Bloggers for this sponsored post. I have been compensated for sharing this offer with our readers. As always, all opinions are my own. We're frequent Groupon shoppers, for our fun day plans like local activities, restaurants, and hot spots, but Groupon's great for those errand running days too. There's nothing boring about saving cash. Groupon offers a mind boggling 70,000 deals on over 9,000 retailers! They count for online shopping like Amazon and more, and you can print out coupons or just show them on your phone for real time shopping at Petco, Target, Home Depot, Walgreens, Starbucks and thousands more.

On the Groupon site I pulled up Petco today since I'm shopping for the hungry horde that is our family's personal petting zoo. They have 41 coupons available today. Forty One! One of my absolute favorite deals is 50% off everything for Labor day (through 9/5/17). Score!
While on the Groupon site be sure to check out all of the other retailers they offer deals and coupons for such as Ebay, Bed Bath & Beyond, Aeropostale, Nordstrom Rack and so many more. Groupon's got your errands covered for less green.
