Jeep Travel Anywhere Sport 2 in 1 bag review

Being a busy mom, I love products that offer convenience as well as function! I just received a Jeep 2 in 1 booster seat and travel bag to review, and I was highly impressed! I love that this diaper bag is roomy, stylish, and multi-functional. This diaper bag is made like a classic diaper bag with all the compartments, pockets, bottle holders, etc.; however, it doubles as a booster seat!
It really looks just like a normal diaper bag at first, however the one side unzips to reveal a seat with harness straps. This is such a huge help to us parents! I have gone places several times that didn't have a booster or high chair, and then I am out of luck.


I think Jeep really went to great measures when coming out with the Jeep Travel anywhere Sport 2 in 1 travel bag! Here are the Product Features
*Booster seat quickly pops up and secures to most chairs
*Comfortable, easy-to-clean padded seat holds up to 45 pounds
*Everyday bag includes plenty of storage space for baby’s daily supplies
*3 exterior cargo pockets for quick reach items such as drinks and cell phones
*2 adjustable straps easily secure booster seat to dining chair and a 3-point safety restraint keeps child safe and secure

I had my 4 1/2 year old (37 pounds), 2 1/2 year old (24 pounds) and my 10 month old (22 pounds) try this booster seat out. They each sat comfortably in the seat, and it was a big help to give them an extra boost at the table. I didn't have to empty the bag out to use the booster, and I like that. This bag is an all around help! The only thing you don't have with this bag is a tray, so your child will need the table for their food.

I highly recommend this diaper bag/booster seat to parents with little ones. If you are searching for a great gift idea, I would like to suggest this great product from Jeep! SRP$29.99 Check out Jeep for other great products, too!

Trebellina DVD: and introduction to music and instruments!

I come from a very musical family, and we were all raised with music composition, piano playing/practicing, and we all love music. I am a big time believer in exposing my children to music, instruments, and rhythm/beats. I was happy to review the Trebellina DVD when I was asked from Parent Reviewers.
Trebellina is a child friendly DVD to introduce your child to music, instruments and musical concepts. I enjoyed watching this DVD with Caleb (almost 4 years old) and Madelyn (2 years old). We had a great time learning about the different instruments, and what they sound like. Trebellina shows you the notes on the piano keyboard, and sings the note. My kids liked singing (matching the note) with Trebellina. My kids liked this DVD and request watching it. I think it is an easy way to introduce the basics at an early age. The graphics aren't high quality, but the lessons and teachings are of great quality.

Here is an excerpt from their site:
Vivacious Trebellina leads the note lessons. Along with Rock Bassey, she teaches your young child how to read the note in the treble clef and identify the corresponding key on the piano. Fun Rhythmo leads your child through a basic rhythm lesson, encouraging movement. Fascinating live action segments introduce percussion instruments from cabasa to cow bell so that your baby will quickly learn their sounds and see how some can be played. Other segments introduce the sound of various instruments in the context of foot-tapping music, coupled with relevant visuals. And, of course, parents will love the music as much as their children!
The engaging music and sound with oral explanation caters to auditory learners. Visual learners will especially appreciate the beautiful pictures and cleverly styled words. The upbeat dance and rhythm scenes encourage kinesthetic learners.
For the preschooler or older toddler, the Trebellina and Friends series is the perfect precursor to formal piano or other instrument lessons.

Trebellina has won many awards and accolades from “noteworthy” organizations, including Dr. Toy, iParenting Media, Aegis, Dove and The National Parenting Center. If you are looking for a program to introduce music, instruments and theory to your child, I would like to recommend Trebellina to you. Trebellina is retailed at $19.95, and you can also purchase other products from the Cristofori Baby website.

Jeep makes great products!!

I am very impressed with the Jeep Overland Limited Jogging Stroller I got! It is such a smooth roller while I am walking! It is made with 16 inch inflatable tires and the frame is aluminum making it lightweight! I was thrilled to find that my stroller came with it's own air pump! This makes my stroller "mama-friendly," because I can fill the tires easily without hooking up the air compressor! I really love that the front wheel swivels, too, which makes turning around a breeze.
I am not with the technology of MP3 players and ipods, but this classy stroller allows you to listen to those while you are strolling around. It does hold cassettes and CD players, as well. I don't have those anymore, so I will have to invest in the MP3 player at some point because I like the idea of listening to music while out on a walk. I want to hear the music in the speakers included on this stroller along with the amplifier & jack. The handle adjusts to multiple heights, and the seat has multi-reclining positions. One of my favorite features on the Jeep Overland Limited Jogging stroller is that it has a speed & distance odometer, then I can keep track of what I am gaining in exercise. :)
Some of the other great features are an adjustable five point harness, safety tether & reflectors for safety, a snack tray with cup holder, a removable weather shield to block wind & rain, two cup holders for parents and a large basket, water bottle holder & two cargo pockets for storage. I love that this stroller holds up to 45 pounds! My kids can enjoy it for a long time to come! Jeep Juvenile products are developed by Kolcraft. The Jeep Overland Limited Jogging Stroller retails for $189.99 and can be purchased online at BabyEarth, BabyAge, or Amazon. These come in a few different colors.
Jeep also carries other juvenile products like the 2-in-1 carrier! I love that this carrier has a cool climate roll-up (like a shade) on the front of the carrier, so I can let the breeze in on the baby. I also like that I can face my baby forward facing, or face me for snuggling. There is a patent-pending Secure-Fit indicator that turns red to confirm that the lock is latched so I know that it is all safe and secure. The buckles and self adjustable straps are easy to use to take my baby out of the carrier. Plus, the straps over my shoulders are very well padded to add comfort while carrying. Also, that extra padding helps my baby's weight get evenly distributed. I like that the seat of the carrier and the leg openings are adjustable, so this carrier can grow with my child. One really great safety feature of this carrier is it has a reflective trim on it, so I can be seen at night wearing it. The Jeep 2-in-1 Baby Carrier retails for $39.99 and can be purchased at Amazon, or Walmart online. There are different color selections available.
Some of the other great Jeep Juvenile Products of 2008 are: Jeep Trek Easy-Travel Playards, Jeep Cherokee Sport Stroller, All-Weather Umbrella Stroller, and the fun looking Power Wheels in Monster Traction Hurricane and the Barbie Jammin'.
