ABCmouse.com Early Learning Academy review...

Last week I was asked if I want to do a review and giveaway about ABCmouse.com my son and I jumped for joy when i read that to him - he was very excited so am I. So our week of learning adventure began (I decided to give it a week try before I do the review to get to know the site better and be able to give a good review about the site.

About ABCmouse.com

For those of you who doesn't know what is ABCmouse.com is all about (since this is open worldwide and I highly doubt that everyone have seen it advertise in their tv). Here is some of the information about them.


ABCmouse.com is the award-winning global education initiative from the team who brought Neo-Pets, the virtual pet website with over 30 million subscribers, to kids around the globe.  ABCmouse’s goal is to help children build a strong foundation for future academic success by providing a comprehensive and engaging online curriculum in early childhood education.  ABCmouse was the recipient of the 2012 Teacher's Choice Award and 2011 Parents Choice Award, and has some of the best curriculum advisors who are more than happy to give you additional insight or participate in interviews:

• Kimberly Oliver-Burnim: Named United States National Teacher of the Year in 2006

• Dr. Rebecca Palacios: A pioneer in the field of dual language learning, and is co-founder and past vice-chairperson of the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards (NBPTS) 

• Dave Hendry: Nationally-recognized expert on achieving learner engagement and understanding through application of principles of instructional design as well as two-time winner of the George Foster Peabody award and The Educational Press Association's highest award for curriculum design. 

ABCmouse.com provides Six Academic Levels. The step-by-step Learning Path presents the full ABCmouse.com curriculum in carefully designed program of more than 450 lessons in six levels, perfect for kids  2-6 years old. As your child completes each lesson, he or she is guided to the next one and is motivated to continue learning by ABCmouse.com's Tickets and Reward system.

My son and I's review

Being a first time mom and stayed at home mom I needed all the help I can get on helping my son learn as early as possible. I found some online education site that I feel is good but always feel it is not good enough coz sometimes they have ads or lessons that i feel is not well thought or appropriate for my son's age. 

We only have a free channels on our TV (since we are trying to live as frugal as possible) and i often let my son watch PBS kids channel coz they do provide learning shows for him and help him entertain at the same time. We often see the commercial about ABCmouse.com and always wanted to give it a try but since my husband got laid off from work since January we are putting off a lot of stuff for our son even payed online or offline education.

That's why we are very grateful to get a chance to use for ABCmouse.com 1 year (check if ABCmouse.com is the right one for you by trying out for free in a month).

My 4yo son gets excited whenever he learns something new, specially on gadgets or online. When we tried out ABCmouse.com for the first time, he was ecstatic to know that he can pick/design the avatar that represents himself since he loves the color red he get to dress him with the red uniform he love :)

Now, everyday he looked forward on using my computer and spend "alone" time learning. I let him play and learn on his own in the beginning coz he prefer it that way. He feels that he is accomplishing something when he gets to finish the path, earned tickets and the special surprise in the end.

He enjoyed all the available levels and lessons specially math and all the letters and words. He was very proud to show me that he get to record his voice saying the word he learns, like most kids, hearing your own voice getting recorded is like getting a present all the time :)

There are plenty of learning activities my son enjoyed and i tell you it's been a life saver for me coz having his own time means i get to have my own time as well. Not that i am complaining of not having one, but i think every parent will agree that having a 15 or even a 5 minutes break from answering every questions there is, is such a breather :)

If your kid loves to color, ABCmouse.com have plenty of coloring activities to choose from - you can even print their work after just make sure your computer is connected to your printer. If you dont like this feature, i believe that you can control what and what not your child can do under parent's tab.

After he gets to enjoy his time (and my time of course LOL) i joined him with his learning journey by helping him out with the rest of his lessons. We get to sing and dance, spell and do all kinds of activities that im sure will help nourish his brain.

ABCmouse.com have taught us that learning is fun - lot's of fun! It makes me feel confident that my son is spending quality learning time while playing online.

At the end of the day, I know and I feel that i did something right not only to him BUT also to me. I realized being a first time mom do need a lot of help and help is just out there, we just have to check it out :)

Our verdict... we LOVE ABCmouse.com 

also, remember to like and follow ABCmouse.com to get new updates.

"OVER" Soft Scrub Mold & Mildew Stain Remover Gel Cleanser review & giveaway (US only)...

Disclosure:

The Soft Scrub Brand provided me with a sample of their NEW Soft Scrub Mold & Mildew Stain Remover in exchange for a product review. However, all the opinions expressed here are my own.

Since my husband got laid off last January, i feel like i am spending more time trying to help him find jobs online than to do my normal home routines. I have to say that i have neglected a lot of cleaning in our home specially around the bathroom area. I think part of it is because whenever i clean our bathroom it always takes me at least half a day to have it the way i wanted.

The photo below will show you how much neglected are bathroom is :( i am not happy about it but i think sometimes i have to prioritize some stuff around the home.

Thanks to Purex Insider, coz it gives me a chance to test the NEW Soft Scrub Mold & Mildew Stain Remover Gel Cleaner  It's a New, more gentle solution to mold and mildew stains that have a unique spray gel that is tough on stains BUT gentle on surfaces.

     *no harsh fumes or overspray

     *spray gel that clings to stains

     *cleans tile, grout, tubs and showers

Unlike other spray bleach cleaners that produce a fine mist of bleach vapors, Soft Scrub Mold and Mildew Stain Remover is a thick gel that clings to bathroom surfaces to penetrate and remove tough stains. The photo below will show you how fast acting it cleans our bathroom. 

What i did is spray it and leave it a few minutes and cook breakfast for my son. When we're done eating i check it back and i am really surprised and super impressed coz the mold is gone. i just spray it with water to rinse out the NEW Soft Scrub Mold & Mildew Stain Remover and my bathroom looks clean and smell really fresh. 

Now i can clean shower, clean bathroom, clean bathtub, removes mold and mildew in one easy spray. I dont have to feel bad that i am neglecting our home trying to help out my husband looking for a new job coz with the help of NEW Soft Scrub Mold & Mildew Stain Remover i can spray and go & just rinse it when ever i have a spare 5 minutes - who doesnt want that :)

New Soft Scrub 4-in-1 Toilet Care review...

Disclosure:
The Soft Scrub Brand provided me with a sample of Soft Scrub 4-in-1 Toilet Cleaner in exchange for a product review. However, all the opinions expressed here are my own.

We live in a country area so we have well water, that means hard water all the time. Having said this i am always struggling on how to clean our toilet bowl and always looking for ways on how to make my toilet cleaning easier.

Thankfully, I am a Purex Insider and got lucky to test/try the New Soft Scrub 4-in-1 Toilet Care. What i love about this product is that unlike other toilet bowl rim hangers that dont stay in place or that dissolve too quickly, New Soft Scrub 4-in-1 Toilet Care provides long lasting cleaning and freshening thanks to its unique formula. The plastic cage keeps the product in place and allow water to activate the cleaner with each flush. What's more, it freshens for up to four weeks and costs less than $2.00! Now that's a great way of being frugal and still be able to make sure that your toilet is clean and protected from thse unwanted odor and toilet ring.

Another thing that i like about it, unlike others that i have tried this one is a bit discrete when i hang it. I honestly dont like it when it is in your face kind of freshener so i am really happy that this one passed my likeness :)

I apologize that i am not holding a contest for this, my special Purex Insider coupon holder is nowhere and i am not sure if its still inside our home or i have left it somewhere else. We are in the process of packing most of our stuff and im hoping to see it soon so i can update this post.

Make sure you like soft scrub on facebook and follow them on twitter @SoftScrub for all future information, sweepstakes, promos and or coupons.

Combat Ant Killing Bait Strips review and giveaway (US only)...

Disclosure:
The Combat Brand provided me with a sample of Combat Ant Killing Bait Strips in exchange for a product review. However, all the opinions expressed here are my own.

Here's another great product i received being a Purex Insider and I am delighted to review it and use it.

What makes this ant killing bait strips different is unlike spray insecticides (i hate this kind coz i dont like the smell and i feel like i am inhaling half of it) that kills the bugs you see. Combat Killing Bait Strips are  designed to kill the nest and colony that are beyond your reach.

Why i love it? 

Because it works!

Also, the NEW Combat Ant & Roach Killing Bait Strips have the following:
     * NEW discreet design (yay! for that)
     * Kills fast
     * Easy to apply
     * Leaves no mess

I have proven all this now that spring is here, i dont know how ants gets in our house but they always do specially in this time of the year. Thankfully, I have the NEW Combat Ant Killing Bait Strips to use to solve our problems. I found out that majority of the ants reside in our houseplant pots so what i did is place the Bait Strips on the side of the pots and in just a day i can see a huge difference on how much ants i can see in that area.

I highly recommend this product specially to those who doesnt like to use the spray kind, this is your best bet.

Luckily one lucky reader will win the New Combat Ant OR Roach Killing Bait Strips.  all you have to do is comment here why you should win this bait strips. (deadline of submission is 05/03 - Friday)
please email me your mailing info as well as your your choice of bait strips at frugalisciousmom@gmail.com so i can forwarded it to Combat.

Dont worry if you don't win here dont be sad coz you can still get a chance to win something. Right now until June, Combat Brand is hosting an online sweepstakes where entrants can learn more about Combat Killing Bait Strips and become eligible to win one of the three $250 visa gift cards or one $1,000 grand prize Visa gift card.

Make sure you ENTER here :)

Good luck! and thank you for coming here!

New Dial Kids Body+Hair Wash review and giveaway ages 6+ (US only)...

Disclosure:The Dial Brand provided me with a sample of Dial Kids Body and Hair Wash in exchange for a product review. However, all the opinions expressed here are my own.

I love being a part of Purex Insiders so when they have an opening to try the New Dial Kids Body+Hair Wash i applied and hope that i will get a chance to try this product for my son.
"I am (well my son is) testing the New Dial Kids Body and Hair Wash ages 6+ watery melon."

Here's why:

I trust Dial Brand coz for 65yrs (that's older than my mom LOL) Dial brand has been developing trusted personal care products for clean and healthy skin.
Now, they developed a product with pediatric dermatologists a formula for children ages 2-5 and 6-10.
      * Tear Free
      * Hypoallergenic
      * No Artificial dyes or added paragons
      * Ph balanced



My son and I's review:

"WE LOVE IT!"  i know i shouldn't be using it but i cant help it the watery melon scent is just divine that it makes bath time so much fun. My son is always looking forward to be in the shower and enjoy his "own" kid's body wash. It is funny how he never misses to ask me to smell him whenever he is out of the shower. I have noticed that it doesn't matter how long or how often he uses the Dial Kids Body and Hair wash it doesn't dry his skin and he don't complain to me that his eyes are hurting whenever he is having fun taking a bath - now, that a whole new level of bath time!
btw, i have used an old Dial foaming hand soap dispenser to place some of the kid's body wash. it saves us some and it is also great for everybody to use for shaving (yes, it is! since it is vey mild and hypoallergenic it doesn't irritates skin after shaving - Now that's a family Body Wash that we all enjoy :)
