Real Shades
https://www.realkidshades.com/

These are by far my FAVORITE sunglasses ever! They have sizes from baby to adult, different styles, and my absolute favorite- color changing sunglasses!! You’ve probably seen my instagram picture of my clear/purple ones that I wear ALL the time. Seriously, I love them. I’ve had them for over a year and they’re still going strong- even being the only sunglasses I ever wear, and I’m one of those people that doesn’t go outside without sunglasses. Real Shades has offered 3 pair of sunglasses (size/color/style of the winners choice) for our 12 days of Christmas Giveaways!

Monkey Mat
www.monkeymat.com These are the must have for your car or diaper bag! Seen on Shark Tank! Think of a lightweight blanket with corner anchors that folds up into a small bag the size of a small notebook (or to fit in your hand). It's the perfect item to have in your car for picnics, games, or camping. They come in 3 sizes once open- the mini is 3'x5', the original is 5'x5' and the mega is 5'x8'. They also come in different types/thicknesses- regular, quilted or plush. When I was at the ABC Kids Expo and got to see quite a few of them laid out to see the fabric and sizes in person my personal favorite is the quilted one- currently it only comes in 5'x5' but if I remember right the woman at the booth told me the 5'x8' version will be available next Spring. I'm excited to order one of those! Monkey Mat has offered one of their Mega Mats (5'x8' size) and a set of stakes for our 12 days of Christmas Giveaways!
Caio! Baby Chair by Jamberly
http://theportablehighchair.com This Caio! Baby go anywhere high chair is one of my favorite things from the ABC Kids Expo! If your family camps, travels or visits grandma's a lot- or if you have baby visitors often enough to need a high chair but not have it taking up a ton of storage space this chair is a must have! It folds up to the same size as a camping chair! Seriously, you could mix up the two.... I was actually thinking I'll have to label mine so that my kids don't accidentally grab it and realize they brought a high chair to sit in once it's too late. Jamberly has donated one of these amazing chairs to our 12 days of Christmas Giveaways!

Suntail Mermaid
https://www.suntailmermaid.com This is a fun new product! There are shark fin boy options too- it is high quality. I'm a little nervous about my daughter learning how to swim with it, but I think once she does she will love it! The information given to me about them is- Sun Tail Mermaid has created the world's best swimmable mermaid tails and mermaid flippers. Their mermaid tails are soft, comfortable, and come in a wide variety of designs and colors. They are made of high quality swimsuit fabric with 4-way stretch.Sun Tail Mermaid's monofins are extremely comfortable and virtually unbreakable.

Borders Unlimited
www.bordersunlimited.com This company has some adorable products! They have themed room decorations with removable vinyl wall stickers. I absolutely love their simple stripes- it's basically a roll of removable vinyl in a solid color. You use it as a quick and easy wall border, but there's potential for so much more!! I was thinking it would be cute to run it through my silhouette machine and cut it in half doing a fancy edging and then you have double the length with a fancy edge! Borders Unlimited has donated 5 rolls for our 12 days of Christmas Giveways- one winner will get 2 rolls and a second winner will get 3 rolls of the color of their choice.
Voyager- mini playpen
http://www.voyagerplaypen.com/ Another one of my favorite things from the ABC Kids Expo was this Voyager mini playpen. It was one of the new inventions and JUST got in stock with the inventor! So basically it's a portable playpen that folds up to the size of a camping chair!! It's a small playpen but perfect when traveling or to keep at grandma's house! It comes in Green or Blue. The inventor has donated one for our 12 days of Christmas Giveaways!
Refresh-a-baby
http://www.refreshababy.com/ These are the coolest attachments to any water/juice bottle that turns them into a bottle for your baby or a sippy cup for your toddler! Talk about convenient on the go!! Refresh-a-baby is giving away 2 nipple tops and 2 sippy cup tops in our 12 days of Christmas Giveaways!
Potty Genie by Ginsey
http://www.ginsey.com/ If you are potty training you may want to check into this Potty Genie. I gave my sample one to my best friend Danielle who is currently potty training her son and she said the baggies are neat if you're traveling or camping and don't have the ability to clean the potty after every time it's used.  She also liked that the seat could be used on a full size toilet as well as it being a step stool after potty training without looking like it wasn't a step stool.
Ginsey will be giving away 3 of these in our 12 days of Christmas Giveaways! Be sure to go enter!

Babycup First Cups
www.babycup.co.uk These are the CUTEST little baby size cups. Perfect for your baby who is just starting to drink from a cup. When I saw these at the ABC Kids Expo I about died they are so tiny and cute. Perfect for play cups for the toddler/preschool ages too- I know my girls love to play picnic with little cups. Babycup has offered 2 sets of 4 cups for our 12 days of Christmas Giveaways! Be sure to go enter! Sip, sip hooray Babycup USA!

Squeasy Gear
www.squeasygear.com My niece told me about these- she is a big fan of them and I have to say when I saw them I was pretty impressed! They collapse when empty, but are sturdy enough to hold up when there's something inside them so they don't spill. They have a spill proof spout that you can take out if you put thicker things inside like applesauce. They come in different sizes so it's easy to get the perfect amount for baby up to teen/adult- yes, adult. My fiance and I fight over who gets to use the largest size one. Squeasy has offered 3 of them (winners choice of color and size) for our 12 days of Christmas Giveaways!

These are great stocking stuffers, or projects to keep them busy while they are on Christmas break and out of school. Katie Clemons- Author
https://katieclemons.com I was introduced to a few of Katie's books at the ABC Kids Expo this year. They are some cute ways to keep a record or journal while your kids are growing up. These books have questions or inspiration topics to give you ideas on what to write about. It's great when you're not sure where to start! You write directly in the book and create a memorable treasure for your children. Katie has offered 2 of her Time Capsule books for our 12 days of Christmas giveaways!

4 in 1 blanket on the go
