This is our second month as subscribers to Citrus Lane and this time my little guy knew just what this box on the front door step meant, goodies for him! Today is the LAST day to take advantage of the semi-annual sale at Citrus Lane with up to 44% a subscription. Once you see what we got I know you are going to see what a deal that is!
Tools and Things from Green Toys: The actual set comes with more in it, including a tool in which to put all your pieces. This mini configuration was created just for Citrus Lane so I can't give a suggested retail value but it was certainly an immediate hit with my 33 month old. He loves his Green Toys vehicles and this is already a favorite toy company in our household. These contain no BPA, phthalates, PVC, or external coatings.
Green Eats Tumbler 2 Pack, $5.95: He's becoming more and more interested in drinking out of real cups, he loves the getting to use the little paper ones in the bathroom. I wasn't sure what our options were for study kid sized cups and then these came, perfect! He loves them and now wants to only drink out of them. He's pretty cute doing it too, see what I mean?
Like the Tools and Things set above, these are also by Green Toys, an environmentally friendly toy company that uses 100% recycled plastic milk containers to make tumblers that has no melamine, BPA, phthalates, PVC, or external coatings. And yes, they are dishwasher safe too!
On a side note: LB will be rocking this smile until his front permanent teeth come in. He fell and smashed his face into our wood floors. I even picked a wood splinter out of his mouth right after it happened. One tooth has such a big chip, I thought it was been pushed up into his gums! Our dentist said it was a best case - worst scenario, meaning that yes he chipped his tooth and possibly damaged the other. But, it's purely cosmetic as the roots weren't damaged and they didn't get pushed up into where the adult teeth are developing. The chip will last until it falls out and the tooth next to it might eventually turn grey but will in time fall out too.
Oh it was "exciting" around here last week. My oldest also fell, she did it off her new scooter and cried so much I thought she broke a leg/ankle. Several of the neighbors came out onto their decks and were ready to run out to help she made such a commotion. Turns out she just cried really really loud and there was barely a scrape but after those two heart racing events I told them I needed a break from all that!
The Prince's Bedtime: Paperback & CD set ($9.99): This title from Barefoot books is one we don't already own, we have a rather extensive library due to my teaching days and gifts from family. One thing I was worried about when joining a children's subscription service was that most of the books I had seen others get in previous boxes we already owned. So it was very nice to receive this one since Barefoot Books is a publisher that can trusted to feature really quality tales and illustrations. I like how this one comes with a CD and it's still reasonably priced for a combo.
Description: Meet a young prince who refuses to go to sleep! The entire kingdom comes out to lend a hand in this rhyming bedtime adventure. There is a hullabaloo of activity—jugglers juggling, magicians hypnotizing, dancers dancing—but it is the wonder of a good story that finally does the trick. Book with CD editions include story read by actor Jim Broadbent and includes two versions of the story: one with page-turn chimes and one without.
Mrs. Meyer's Lemon Verbena Dish Soap, Full Size $3.99: We received a travel size and I love the smell. My husband jokes that I like everything to smell like Lemon Pledge, but it's kinda true. I just associate cleanliness with lemon scents. I like this little size a lot for travel. Parents of toddlers know that road trips can be difficult when your kiddo can only drink out of a sippy cup and you have to wash those suckers every night at the hotel.
Free Greeting Card from Treat: We also got a card with a code for a free card from Treat. I have used them before and been happy with their designs and quality. I will definitely put this to good use!
Overall: This box cost us $17.67 and I'm happy with the value and variety of items we received. I think we definitely got more than the purchase price and everything was a quality item.
