Hairdresser Cape Review by mysillymonkeys.com (Jessica)

Little Journeys Baby World has an array of baby products that are all made in the USA! Their product lines consists of the Western Line, International Line, Traveling Line, Heirloom Line!

We were sent a hairdresser cape which is just perfect for us since I cut the boys hair myself. It's short & I will just say it, very nappy, it gets all over them & it's hard to get off. Those little plastic capes just do not work. I love the workmanship and size of the cape. It's absolutely perfect and I am sure Caroline puts just as much hard work into everything she does, which is why I added her to the Holiday Guide!

Product Review Traveling Chalkboard Placemats "Leavin' on a Jet Plane"

2009-12-04T12:22:00.000-08:00

Leavin’ on a Jet plane – with kids!
by Tina
http://www.madhattermom.com/2009/12/flying-with-kids/

By the time this posts I will be at the airport waiting to board a plane with my 2 and 4 year old. This will be their first time on a plane, their first time leaving the state, their first time traveling further than 200 miles away from home.

I’m excited, nervous and a little bit scared. I don’t know how my kids are going to react. We will be on the plane for a LONG time and they have a hard time sitting still for a 90 minute movie.

So I’ve been trying to come up with some ways to occupy and distract them. See, my kids don’t know we are going to Disney World. As a matter of fact currently they have no idea that we are going anywhere. We are going to stay the night near the airport the night before and we plan on telling them we are going to visit their grandparents that night. It’s not lying. We really are going to see their grandparents while in Florida. We are just selectively leaving out the whole Mickey and Minnie Mouse thing.

Anyway, back to the plane ride. My friend Sarah had told me about a really great thing she and her husband did when they flew with 2 of their 4 kids for the first time. They were flying for the holidays so to make it special she wrapped up several small presents and stashed them in her bag for the plane. When the kids would start to get restless she would pull out a present for each of them and they would be good to go for a while.

So I’ve taken that idea . I’ve actually procured some super cute items that are Disney themed and some that are not. My plan is to give them to the kids throughout the flight. I’ve also got the portable DVD player packed with Disney movies of course and each of my kids will have a backpack that they can pack a few toys in to take on the plane and I’ll put some snacks and a drink in there too.

One of the items I have (although not Disney themed) is a super cute product from Little Journeys Baby World.Chalkboard Placemats. This is one of her So, I actually let the kids play with this one already. It is so cool to have when at a restaurant. The kids have fun drawing on the “chalkboard” side and then when their meal comes we flip it over and they have a special placemat.

I also like the fact that they roll up and have a ribbon tie and fit easily in my purse, which I will admit is a bit oversized, and are great to carry around to use not just for eating out but for doctors office or any other appointments where you need to occupy the kids.

The only drawback that I could find with them is that since they are stored rolled up, when you first untie and open them you really have to smooth them out to get them to lay flat. This is all me though because the kids don’t seem to mind that they have to hold one side down when trying to draw on them. And when you flip them over for the placemat they lay down fine.

Western Onesis Product Review by Erin Lowmaster (Connectd 2 Christ)

2009-12-04T12:00:00.000-08:00

I'm a southern girl , so it's no surprise that I'm a fan of cute country western home decor and attire! And though my daughter was born in Oregon, I hope she at least half heartily embraces her mom's southern heritage in one way or another.

A few weeks ago, I fell head over heels in love with the incredibly cute Western Line for children and babies I came across at Little Journeys Baby World. The Boo Boo Bunnies, Burp Clothes, and incredibly adorable quilts, and totes are sure to please any country western fan. If country western isn't you thing though, Little Journeys Baby World also offers a few other themed product lines too such as international, heirloom, and traveling!

How Little Journeys Baby World started....

Starting from her home in Colorado, Little Journeys Baby World first supplied her products to friends and family, local shops, and special events. And now available through the World wide Web. Soon after that in 2003 Caroline became pregnant with her son Stefan and Little Journeys Baby World was born. Unfortunately, things turned bad in 2004 when her Son, Aunt, two Dogs and herself got hit by a drunk driver. It took about 4 years to get back on track again into doing what she loves the most of being with her family and friends, traveling and her dream business Little Journeys Baby World.Little Journeys Western Wear line was selected to be one of the sponsors at the Canadian Country Music Awards 2009!

My Thoughts...

I was given the opportunity to review a custom made western onesie for my daughter from Little Journeys Baby World. As you can see from my included photos, the onesie is just too cute! The bandanna that is attached to her onesie just takes the cake! I like that I don't have to worry about putting an actual bandanna around my daughters neck for her to pull and tug at in which then end results could end in strangulation.

The onesie I was sent stands great alone but when paired with a blue jean skirt or overalls, it really compliments a fantastic western look. I wanted to let you know that if there is a design you don't see at Little Journeys Baby World, you can contact Caroline and she may be able to create a custom design just for you just like she did for my daughter Melody.

I adore custom well made products and those you rarely find in stores for affordable prices! How about checking out Little Journeys Baby World this Holiday season? Custom made and affordable, not to mention all products are made in the USA and CPSIA compliant.

Connect: You can follow Little Journeys on Twitter, fan them on Facebook or subscribe to their YouTube channel :)

Disclaimer: I was given a onesie to review from Little Journeys Baby World . This review is 100% my opinion and has not been edited or reviewed by anyone. I was not compensated in any other way for this product review.

Boo Boo Bunny Review by Marina from Energizerbunnysmommyreports.blogspot.com

2009-12-01T13:13:00.000-08:00

Boo Boo Bunnies- Stocking Stuffers (Festive R&G)

Have you noticed that you are always running around to look for a thick hand towel or cloth to hold ice in when your little one gets that sore bump that needs to be iced off? I know I'm always throwing stuff out of drawers to find a cloth that's just the right thickness to allow the ice cube to do its work and something that's easy for Bunny girl to hold while she ices off her 'boo boo'.

Thankfully ever since I received this cute but practical little product from Little Journeys Baby World, we've not had any bad 'owies' but the next time anyone has a nice sore 'boo boo', I know what I'm going to grab....my Boo Boo Bunnies!

All you need to do is stuff some ice into Boo Boo Bunny's head and hold it down onto your 'boo boo'. Not only will your little one like to hold this cute little 'bunny' but will readily allow 'bunny' to kiss those 'boo boos' away!

Western Product Review by Rose "RedNeckWitch"

2009-11-27T11:45:00.000-08:00

Where cows go moo, chickens go cluck, horses neigh
and where cow girls and cow boys have fun.

I’m pretty sure that by now, most (if not all) of readers are well aware that I’m a bit of a country girl. Little Journeys Baby World is too cute for words. And they aren’t geared only “country”. But other ethnicity’s as well. The lines that Little Journey’s has created are just adorable.

Check out Bonjour Little Sweetheart, sooo cute. We are expecting FOUR new babies between Feb. and end of March. I call them our soon to be Spring Babies. Springin’ up! (See website www.littlejourneysbabyworld.com)

Product Review from Goodie Goodie Gumdrops over Adoption Month Novmeber

2009-11-01T11:16:00.000-08:00

Review and Article
by
Goodie Goodie Gumdrops
http://goodie-goodie-gumdrops.blogspot.com/2009/11/adoption-month-giveaway-little-journeys.html

November is National Adoption Month and, as we well know, there are many ways to build a family. For some, the old-fashioned way is not possible or optimal. They may decide to pursue infertility treatment such as intra-uterine insemination (IUI) or in-vitro fertilitzation (IVF). Some may consider surrogacy or donor eggs/sperm. Others may desire to become a child's forever family via foster care, domestic adoption or international adoption.

While there is a wait involved no matter which road you choose, the adoption process can take up to three years or more. Many factors are out of your control, as you wait for your referral. When adopting internationally, political unrest or changes in adoption laws can further delay the process. During this agonizing wait, prospective parents often experience mixed emotions: excitement, fear, anxiety, disbelief, sadness. They may encounter setbacks and wonder if their dream will ever come true.

Chinese adoption programs tend to be the most reliable and stable, and therefore the number one choice for international adoptive parents in the U.S. since 2000. According to Adoption.com, in 2008, U.S. citizens adopted approximately 3,909 children from China. China's popularity is also due to the fact that the average age of its adoptees is considerably younger than other countries. AdoptionServices.org states that the average age of Chinese children at the time of their adoption is 8-15 months old. This allows the family to bond from an early age, and makes future attachment disorders unlikely. Chinese adoptees also tend to be in excellent health, which is appealing to many adoptive parents. The vast majority of Chinese children available for adoption are girls, although children of both sexes are looking for their forever homes.

I have joined together with Little Journeys Baby World for an extra-special giveaway in honor of National Adoption Month. Little Journeys Baby World is a shop that provides quality, unique handmade items for babies and children, including clothes, accessories, baby gear and bath products. All items from Little Journeys Baby World have a cultural flair but are made right here in the U.S.

Goodie Goodie Gumdrop Review September 2009

Article and Review

Goodie Goodie Gumdrop
http://www.goodie-goodie-gumdrops.blogspot.com

I've always had love for handmade items. Scarves. Blankets. Sweaters. Hats. Toys. Furniture. What I find to be most special about handmade things is the story behind them. I hold the item in my hands and think about what the creator was doing or thinking as they made it. Were they knitting in a rocking chair as children played at their feet? A perfectionist sitting isolated at a sewing machine, careful not to stray from their path? Sanding wood in their garage, singing along to a tune on the radio? My imagination runs wild. The histories of the makers and their products is what I find most fascinating.

After giving birth to Nate, my love of handmade has grown exponentially. Unlike many plastic, mass-produced children's products, there is typically no BPA or endocrine-disrupting phthalates to worry about. You can just feel the tenderness and care put into something that is handcrafted. So, I choose to buy handmade whenever possible.

One mom-owned company I've come to know in this time is Little Journeys Baby World.

The founder, Caroline Riepler, got her start in 2001 handcrafting wooden European Good Luck Witches. She was quite successful - Former Secretary of State Madeline Albright even purchased one of her limited editions! But when her son, Stefan, was born in 2003, Caroline shifted her focus to products for babies and children. She started making things for friends and family, eventually expanding to local shops, special events and her very own online store. Unfortunately, her endeavor was cut short when she and her family were involved in a terrible car accident, hit by a drunk driver. It took 4 years to get back on track but her dream business, Little Journeys Baby World, has finally come to fruitition.

Little Journeys Baby World offers unique, hand-embroidered family-friendly products. You'll find everything from clothes to blankets to bath puppets. There are also special keepsakes such as tooth fairy pillows, first haircut bags and corsage cards that would be perfect accompaniments to a baby book. Some of my favorites are the Boo Boo Bunny (a sweet treat for those toddler bumps and bruises) and the Airplane Chalkboard Placemat (great entertainment for little ones while dining out). Each product comes with its own little story and tag - ready for gift giving! - and many have personalization options available.

Caroline's Swiss-American heritage has enabled her to visit different lands and meet people of different cultures. This is reflected in much of her work, specifically her International Apparel line of handmade onesies and bottoms, and her Travelling items such as totes and passport wallets for families to use at home and abroad. Check out her adorable adoption outfits! While all pieces have an international feel, they are all made in the USA.

Most recently, Little Journeys Baby World was a proud sponsor of the Canadian Country Music Awards, where Caroline promoted her Western line of baby products. Her sponsorship opportunity actually came about from a Twitter relationship with the Uptown Giftbox Company. How's that for the impact of social media?

If you're looking for a creative gift with a cultural flair and handmade touch for yourself or for a loved one, I would definitely recommend checking out Little Journeys Baby World.

Product Review Traveling Changer Pad and Burpcloths

2009-06-29T13:44:00.000-07:00

Review made by Momma In Flip Flops 2
(http://mommainflipflops2.com/2009/06/little-journeys-baby-world-review.html

Cute baby products that don't look like what everyone else is toting around, yes that's what I like to have! Little Journeys Baby World carries a variety of items that aren't what you're going to find at every other site on the internet. Caroline the owner does a great job creating and designing some fantastic items.

Caroline sent me a cute traveling changer pad with embroidery burp clothes for review. The changer pad is one item that I do not go without. I never used one with my son and once I got my hands on them for my daughter, I can't imagine life without them. Definitely a must have if you have a little one. This changer pad is cute and well made, 100% cotton, soft and easily cleaned. If you're looking to purchase a changer pad, these come in blue, pink, green and yellow. I don't use burp cloths on a regular basis but these are very cute, soft and will be used when we have our new baby. I like that they have cute embroidery on them and aren't like a lot of typical, plain burp clothes you see.

Little Journeys Baby World carries apparel, jewelry, bath and body, international items, traveling items and more. Get ready for your new one, or don't forget a unique special gift for a friend. I'm looking at the Diaper Cake Cylinder kit for my sisters Baby shower. I love how it comes with instructions, so it's made with love - not just something you purchase. You can even watch a youtube clip on Little Journeys Baby World Diaper Kit Cake. Check out her other cake kits as well, not just for baby

Tooth Fairy Pillow Rewiew

2009-06-25T14:09:00.000-07:00

Tooth Fairy Pillow Review done by The Copper Brick Road
(http://www.copperbrickroad.com/2009/06/little-journeys-baby-world-tooth-fairy.html)

As we all know the Tooth Fairy (for the most part) is just as much a part of children's lives as the Easter Bunny or Santa Claus. After the first visit from the Tooth Fairy...your child is never the same. Once they notice a loose tooth, they can't get it out fast enough to get it under their pillow. I know you know what I'm talking about because you were probably the same way as a child! I couldn't think of a cuter way to present a tooth to the Tooth Fairy than in a Little Journeys Baby World's Tooth Fairy Pillow!

Little Journeys Baby World sells sooo many cute handmade products! I was offered a chance to review the adorable Tooth Fairy Pillow. It is a small, tight stitched white pillow with the cutest fairy embroidered on it. I loved that the fairy even had sparkly wings! Beside the fairy is a pocket covered in lace. Little Journeys Baby World offers name embroidery as well (for an additional fee).

Your child will love putting a tooth in their own Tooth Fairy Pillow. It adds a special element to this course of growing up! Of course you can rest assured that the Tooth Fairy will be able to find your child's tooth a lot easier too! My son loved getting his pillow. He loves anything that has his name on it. Of course I know the Tooth Fairy will be happy he did. We try to make life easier on the gift givers! :P I also loved the fact that when he is older, he will be able to show this pillow to his kids! These pillows make such great keepsakes!

Product Review First Haircut Bags

2009-05-08T13:49:00.000-07:00

Product Review made by Kiddies Corners Deals

The day has come that you need to get your baby their first haircut. Your dreading it because you KNOW they are going to look all grown up. You need a special memory bag for that first haircut.

Get it from Little Journeys Baby World They sent me two of their First Haircut bags. Which I am ecstatic about because Gavyn's hair, from 5 years ago, is still in a zip lock baggy. That is not very special for his first haircut. I want to pull out a cute little bag when he is older so he can see his baby hairs. Also, Zoe has not got her first haircut yet! Now I have a special bag for hers. When and IF I get it cut lol! These bags are special. With wonderful embroidery on them, and come in 3 different colors. Pink, blue, and yellow. Let me mention that they are super affordable for any budget also. At only $10.00 a piece! These bags are small in size and would be perfect for the scrapbooker who wants to make that special first haircut page. Can't figure out what to bring to the next baby shower your going to? This would make a wonderful baby shower gift. You worry about too many things for your baby don't worry about where to keep their hair also. Remember to take before and after pictures also!! One last thing that is amazing about Little Journeys is they are Lead FREE and ALL products are made in the USA!!

Some Ideas How to Fly with Baby and Toddlers

2009-01-01T12:58:00.000-08:00

Being a world traveler is my greatest passion. I worried when I had my son, if I would be able to continue this passion of mine. With some creativity and some great books out there, and the internet, it wasn't a problem.

With my first trip to Austria, I am a large traveling changer pad that fits all restaurant and airplane changers, so that my son was germ free. It was so convenient! Also, I found out soon that I didn't have to have to bring my car seat with me, as there are lots of places that you can rent a car seat. I was fortunate to rent one in Austria. Below were the essentials I took on the plane:

- lots of diapers, baby wipes
- 2 pairs of extra clothing
- traveling kit for my son (Medicine (Children's Tylenol, Benadryl, Vapor Rub, Band Aids, Ear Drops, Thermometer, etc (see book recommendation for more info.)
- small stroller
- Washcloth
- Zip Lock Bags
- Food (bottles)
- Blanket
- small pillow
- stuffed animal
- baby books (anything that is entertaining)
- PJ's (only if you are doing an international flight) (yes, try to keep up your routine going. Sleep is important for you and your little one.)

I found that getting a seat on the plane where you have enough room was important. I needed to open up my diaper bag a lot during the flight, so I found that sitting next to the wall panel worked best for our family.

Don't hesitate to ask your flight attendants for help. I had some flights where they were just wonderful, and I was so grateful for that. Of course, that experience can be the other way around. But if you are open to everything, it will make you have an easy traveling experience.

While taking of or landing, it's essential to give your baby - toddler something to eat or drink. The sucking motion helps alleviate the pain or popping in the ears, that is often caused at these times. (Please ask your Doctor more about this issue)

Arrive at the Airport early as possible, because you need to be prepared for everything such as: potty breaks, going through security, food breaks, getting luggage checked in, etc.

Also, parents can always board first. Sometimes that isn't always the best idea.... Because toddlers need to get there energy out somewhere. So, you will have to decide what is best for you and your baby - child.

And don't forget to drink a lot! Keep hydrated is important for everyone involved.

Here are some great books and traveling sources that will help you keep organized when traveling with your family:

- Traveling with Baby (The Ultimate Guide for Planning Trips with Babies, Toddlers, and Preschool-Age Children) by Shelly Rivoli
- Kid's Travel Fun Book, by Loris and Marlin Bree
- 52 Fun Things to do on the Plane by Lynn Gorden (It's a card deck)
- And check out your local library, that was a great source for me.

I hope this article has helped you traveling mommies and daddies out there. Have fun with it! Here's wishing you all happy and healthy journeys where ever you go.

From, a traveling Mommy

P.S. These are all tips and I do not take responsibility for any of these tips. If you need more ideas, just ask you child's physician, and the airline that you are using.
