Sister Sue {Etsy Giveaway}

Random.org chose Sarah as the winner. Congrats to her!

Continuing on the theme of I ♥ Etsy, I have another fabulous Etsy giveaway for my fabulous readers!

First of all, I just want to say that I capital L LOVE Jen from Sister Sue Designs. She even offered to come dust my house. Unfortunately, she lives a few states away, but I'm working on that!
I am pretty much in love with everything in her shop, but I was so happy when she sent me these cloth play blocks.

As a mom of two boys, I'm a huge fan of anything that can't potentially cause bruises or concussions. Seriously, I'm only half-joking here. So, I love these because they're soft, but still FUN. I love them, also, because both Luke and Tommy can enjoy them. Tommy loves that there's a bell in the block, so they jingle, and Luke loves that he can stack and kick and throw them--without mom saying, "CAREFUL, LUKE, WATCH OUT FOR YOUR BROTHER."

Normally when I'm snapping photos of Tommy, the clicking of the camera distracts him from whatever it is he's doing and he abandons it. This time, though, he was like, "MOM, STOP it. I'm trying to play!"

And play he did. He rolled and stacked and threw and squished and has every day since I got these blocks.

Not only are these blocks great for babies and toddlers, but they'd make a great nursery decoration, too! I think it'd be so sweet to see these sitting on a shelf, just waiting for baby to be big enough to play.

Because Jen is fabulous, she's offered to give a set of cloth blocks to one of my lucky readers (that's you). Check out her shop and let me know something that catches your eye, just for fun! Good luck!

giveaway ends Friday

Love the cowboy up play blocks! Adorable!
And as a mom to 3 boys, I totally understand your concern about bumps and bruises. We have now reached the "stitches and concussions" stage. Good times. If I could make sure ALL of their toys were cloth, I would!

Nina said...

I love the skulls and stipes blanket, too cute:) My best friend is having a little girl, and you are right the bloks would be perfect in the nursery!

Megan said...

Seriously, moms of boys definitely need injury proof toys! I love every single little thing in her shop-- if I had a little girl, I'd be ON them sundresses.
Alas, since I don't, I'm really super in love with the diaper totes. Cute idea that I could stick in my bag or purse when I don't need a separate diaper bag!

I WILL be ordering the So Tweet capri pants & baby doll tee soon for Ivy but I must say that IVY REVERSIBLE DRESS is fabulous. We own one, you know. :P

Would love to win!

Love,

Oh, he is so cute! The blocks looks really nice too.

We go through a ton of bibs around here, so her lovely Pink Whimsy Birds Reversible Toddler Bib caught my eye!

Jenny said...

Love it all but will definitely be ordering nursing pads TODAY!! Fun giveaway :)

Angleicka said...

I have been eyeing these blocks! I have a similar situation to you - older boy (17 months) & younger GIRL (5 months), so we need more SOFT toys. I am CONSTANTLY saying, "Be careful!" and "Watch out for your sister!"

Plus, I just love less plastic (and for safety, less wood too!).

samantha said...

I also love the elephant burp cloths!

Theo would love these blocks and yes, they are beautiful just as a display as well!

Loving the soft blocks! Wish a 2&1/2 year old in the house and a baby on the way, I'm all about things that are fun and yet non-destructive :)

Anne said...

I really like the black and red blocks. My baby Mason loves black/white/red combos already. He would love playing with those!

My 2 boys would love the super cute planes and auto blocks. They will chew, throw, build, and roll them - and probably make vroom noises too!

I happen to loooove horses and have a niece who is almost a year old. Even though everyone always buys her froggy things (to make her mommy happy) I would love to get her the cowboy block set. (http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=38008793)
