Fresh Baby MyPlate Review + Giveaway

Melissa Roach — Fri, 17 May 2013 18:30:21 +0000

One of the most important things about being a parent and/or a caregiver is providing the correct nutritional needs for the children and loved ones that you care for. Fresh Baby and MyPlate are here to help you do just that! I just love some of the articles that you can find on their websites including How to Eat Healthy on a Budget, Eat Right When Money’s Tight, and Ten Tips for Building a Healthy Meal.

Just in case you don’t already know…

For more than 10 years, Fresh Baby has helped parents foster their children’s healthy eating habits and proactively respond to the childhood obesity epidemic that plagues our nation.

A National Strategic Partner with the USDA, Fresh Baby’s nutrition education products and publications offer solutions to support many stages of family life including: pregnancy, breastfeeding, introducing solid foods, and feeding toddlers, preschoolers & school-aged children. The products provide people with support in critical areas where food choices are being made – including food shopping, meal preparation and meal time.

For more ideas on creating and enhancing healthy frugal fabulous meals, be sure to check out this link. Eating healthy doesn’t have to cost more.

So, how do you build a healthier plate? Well, for some it takes a visual like the Adult My Plate (on the left above) or Kids My Plate (on the right above). Here are some tips to get you started:

Make half your plate Fruits & Vegetables – as you can see above, that is exactly what they do!
Switch to Fat-Free or Low-Fat (1%) Milk – great for cooking, baking, and of course with your morning cereal.
Make at least half your Grains Whole – that means bread, rice, tortillas, etc.
Compare sodium, sugars, and saturated fats in the food you eat AND choose the ones with LOWER numbers!

The plates shown above are designed so that portions are visual and you are reminded to keep half of your plate with fruits and vegetables. Made of melamine, the dishes are dishwasher safe, but never be microwaved. Lead, BP-A & Phthalate – FREE.

Another great product that Fresh Baby sent my way was the Kid’s Portion Tip Card. This 2-sided, plastic kitchen counter card offers support to help you serve appropriately-sized portions for your children (ages 2-8). Topics covered:

Visual guide to portion sizes
Recommended servings per day by food group for children 2-3 and 4-8 years old
Serving size by food group
Serving sizes for common children’s foods

I cannot tell you how many times I use this during the day! As a stay at home mom, I typically make my girls 3 meals/day and having this tip card is such a great way to SEE that I am providing them everything they need.

The next product that I want to tell you about is the My Plate Grocery Bag. This roomy, water-resistant and very colorful bag is also a great reminder to choose healthy foods while at the market. The bottom of the bag even provides a price chart for calculating the cost of produce by the pound, trips for reading nutrition labels and a kid’s corner to making shopping fun!

And finally, the last product that I aboslutely love is the My Plate Grocery List. Creating a grocery list can save time and money at the market. It can also be a reminder to purchase healthy items from all five of the food groups. Fresh Baby’s grocery list uses the USDA MyPlate icon and food group categories help your grocery shopping be more productive.

On a personal note, my family and I try to do the best when it comes to eating healthy on a budget by doing the following…

Always make a breakfast/lunch/dinner menu for each week ~ this helps tremendously with our grocery list
Plan ahead ~ don’t go to the store hungry, and price match in the ads with coupons at least once a week
Check the local newspaper, online,

and at the store for sales and coupons. Ask about

a loyalty card for extra savings at stores where you shop. We always get whats on sale and sometimes stock up for later on.
Buying fruits and vegetables in season can lower the
cost and add to the freshness! If you are not going

to use them all right away, buy some that still need time to

ripen. For example, strawberries are on sale right now, so we bought a 2 lb package!
Leftovers are the best! I always try to make a meal or two each week that will last more than a couple days ~ whether we have the same thing, or we change it into something else…it still saves money and time each week.

To sum up, having healthy eaters is so important! Not only will it prepare your family for their work/school day, but it will also help them be a more happier person. I don’t have all the statistics, but I know that a hungry tummy makes a sad person…and having fruits, vegetables and some ready to eat snacks are the way to go!

For more healthy eating advice, recipes and fresh ideas you can visit the Fresh Baby’s website, like them on Facebook, and/or follow them on Twitter.

Now for the Giveaway…Fresh Baby would like to giveaway a MyPlate Gift Set (which includes the Adult Portion Plate, Kid’s Portion Plate, Kid’s Portion Tip Card, My Plate Grocery Bag, and My Plate Grocery List) to ONE Frugal Fabulous Finds reader! Please note: This giveaway is open to U. S. residents only!

Thirty One Review + Thermal Zipper Pouch Giveaway

Melissa Roach — Mon, 13 May 2013 16:30:44 +0000

We have had a crazy year, as far as weather goes around our neck of the woods (in the Midwest)…which is why I am SOOO excited that Spring is actually here, and hopefully here to stay! That means, more trips to the park, Zoo, and play dates with friends to enjoy the beautiful weather. You never know when you need to have something cold and on the go, and thanks to the wonderful products from Thirty-One I can always be prepared. This past week I received a Thermal Zipper Pouch with a beautiful Island Damask print to review, and I even have an exclusive giveaway for all of you!!

In case you don’t remember from our past reviews, Thirty-One is a company that offers stylish purses, accessories and products that help organize the lives of busy women and their families. We teamed up with a wonderful director named Daphne Boyd over the past two years, and since then, have brought you tons of sales, giveaways and even coupon offers to save you money!

This incredible company creates personalized gifts such as totes, purses, back packs, baskets, aprons, blankets, mirrors, scarfs, umbrellas, bibs, towels, wallets and more!! I am STILL so amazed by how much Thirty-One makes, and the choices of fonts, colors, and fabrics to choose from! Your options truly are endless!

Monthly Specials
Thirty-One has a NEW monthly special for their customers every month! Check out the special for May ~ For every $31 you spend in May, get ANY THERMAL for 1/2 off. Here is cute video from their website, that explains it:

The Thermal Zipper Pouch is available in 5 prints, including Black Floral Brushstrokes, Camo, Inspirations, Island Damask and/or Party Punhc. is available in 6 different prints, including the exclusive Snowmuchfun print (my new favorite!). Approx. 9”H x 12.25”W x 2.5”D

This pouch is perfect for Spring and Summer month ahead. The same size as Thirty-One’s regular Zipper Pouch, this style comes with a thermal lining, so it’s ideal for keeping food and drinks cool while you’re at the pool or beach or just running around town on a hot summer day. Great for keeping in diaper bag to keep bottles and baby food cold. Great for keeping medicine in so it will stay cold. It’s a thermal you can carry inside your purse or bag!

If you have never used Thirty-One products, know this…I am in love with their products. From the thermals to the purses, I use them every time I go to the park, the beach, the pool – you name the place, and our family has more than likely taken it with us! They are so incredibly stylish and you can even personalize an item with your name, a phrase or monogrammed initials. I would highly recommend anyone and everyone to check out Thirty-One. You will not regret making a purchase for yourself, a friend or a family member. And be sure to check out Daphne Boyd’s website and Facebook Group (you must request to join)! Tell her that Frugal Fabulous Finds sent you, and she may even give you a discount
