    Busy moms are often pressed for time, but entering blog giveaways can help you score some great products for your family for free. With some perseverance and a little luck, you too can be a winner! Busy Mommy Media has scoured the internet and discovered some of the greatest blog giveaways for mom bloggers so you can spend your precious free time entering giveaways instead of searching for them.

    Winning Ways

    This week’s tip is to create a separate twitter account for entering giveaways.  Many blog giveaways will give extra entries for following them on Twitter.  This is a simple way to earn extra entries.  However, if you use Twitter to stay in touch with family and friends, you may not want all the giveaway tweets cluttering up your page.  If you use a Twitter account solely dedicated for entering giveaways, you won’t have this problem.  It also makes it easier to check Twitter for new giveaways.

  • Pediped Toddler Shoes with Developmentally Appropriate Style
  • Celebrity Autographed Pediped Shoes Support the Make-a-Wish Foundation
  • Eleven Shoes for the Holidays (Closed)
    • ]]>


    My boys are talented. They can make a brand new pair of shoes look like something we pulled out of the dumpster in a matter of minutes. I once tried to salvage a pair by throwing it in the washing machine. It didn’t end well and my oldest son has never let me live it down. He lives in fear that I’m going to try and wash a pair of his favorite shoes again. Unfortunately, without washing, shoes don’t last long around our house.

    Pediped has released a great new line of shoes that not only uses DRYZ technology to control moisture and limit odor, but they are machine washable too. My 4 year old, the most notorious of all shoe wearers in our house has been working his hardest to get a pair of Joel shoes dirty over the last few weeks. This style has been great for my son because even though it’s structured more like a tennis shoe, which makes it easy to run in, it lets a lot of air through and doesn’t require socks (perfect for the boy who can never find a matching pair).

    Our Pediped Joel shoes have been to the county fair and walked through who knows what while learning how to brush a horse. They’ve been to the beach, both in and out of the water. They’ve ridden scooters and walked through amusement parks.

    While I’d love to say they are filthy enough that only washing will save them – I can’t. The things still look brand new. All the dirt, and sand, and sticky food just seems to fall off them and there’s no noticeable smell thanks to the DRYZ technology.

    But, I’m going to wash them anyway because I want to see if they’ll survive the process.

    Are Pediped Shoes Machine Washable?

    Here are the Joel shoes before washing. They are in pretty good shape, especially considering all the abuse they’ve taken. The rubber in the front is coming away every so slightly but that is because they’ve been dragged while riding a scooter. Few shoes can survive that intact.

    After washing? They actually look pretty good. There’s no fraying along the edges like you typically see after washing shoes in the washing machine. The rubber on the front that my son scrapped a bit didn’t pull away any further like I was worried it would. The color of the rubber on the bottom is bright and looks just like new. Notice I did take the insoles out before washing according to Pediped’s instructions. I’m guessing I can wipe those down with a wet rag to clean them up a bit.

    These are still drying but they look like they’ve come through the wash just fine.

    Pediped doesn’t recommend washing them any more than necessary but it is a nice option when you need to refresh a pair of shoes.

    Winning Ways

    This week’s tip is to have a notebook to keep track of your wins.  Be sure to include information such as the date you were notified, the email address of the person who contacted you, the blog url, and the prize you won.  Then as prizes arrive, mark them out.  This is a great way to tell at a glance if you need to let the giveaway host know that the prize was never received.  I generally allow 6-8 weeks before I contact the blogger about prizes not received.

    We rarely go to the movies together as a family but for Toy Story 3 we are making an exception. The Toy Story movies are some of my all time favorite children’s movies and my kids adore them. There was a time when Toy Story had a permanent home in our DVD player. To this day, I think my kids – at least partially –  think that their toys come alive when they aren’t looking.

    We are big fans of Legoland and since moving to San Diego we’ve been taking full advantage of our season passes. My kids have been eyeing the Toy Story Legos that started to pop up in the gift shop window several months ago and we all agreed that the alien minifigs may just be the cutest thing ever.

    Lego’s Toy Story Construct a Buzz has the same great quality that you expect from Lego. My 6 year old was able to build this without help and has had a blast using his other Legos to construct obstacles for Buzz to climb over, stand on, and crash through. Buzz must be exhausted.

    I was impressed by how reasonable the price of the Construct a Buzz is – only $24.99. That’s still in my birthday gift budget range and includes a great building activity and a toy for pretend play afterwards. We’re gearing up to watch the movie this weekend and I’m sure this toy is going to get plenty of play time before and after.

  • Upside-Down Caterpillars – Insect Lore Day 5
    • ]]>


    Bugs are an essential part of summer. I have all boys so if I don’t embrace their love affair with bugs and join in . . . they are going to fill their pockets full of potato bugs and not tell me about them until after they’ve been through the wash.

    My kids had LOVED doing the Insect Lore Butterfly Garden kit. My 4 year old in particular still talks about it nearly every day – he was just amazed that caterpillars could do that. Remember our butterfly release party? That has been one of the high points of their year (and they’ve been to Disneyland a handful of times already).

    Several of you had a chance to try out your own Insect Lore Butterfly Garden’s through our giveaway on the site and our Insect Lore #MomStorm Twitter party.

    Katie was one of our lucky readers who won a Butterfly Garden kit and she was kind enough to send us photos of her butterflies. Look how happy her kids are. I love those smiles.

    Those of you who had the chance to chat with the Insect Lore crew during the #MomStorm party know that they are a friendly bunch. They just couldn’t resist giving away more insect kits to help you have a great summer with your kids. This time, we’re giving away more than just butterflies and I’m sure they’ll all be a hit.
