Peace Love Organic Earth with a giveaway **Closed**

When Beth (the owner of Peace Love Organic Earth) had her first child she did what so many of us did. She went out and bought organic bath wash, shampoo's and moisturizers and found out later than even though they were organic she was basically rubbing chemicals all over her daughter! She struggled, like we have, in finding products that are actually safe for our kids. Just because its organic doesn't necessarily mean that its free of harmful chemicals.


Beth decided to open up Peace Love Organic Earth to help you find products that would ultimately be safe for you and your family! She carries a variety of cuddle toys as well as the amazing Schlori swim cushions.



Schlori swim cushions have been around since 1936 and I couldn't believe that I had never heard of them. They started in Germany and have an amazing story about how they came to be! Check it out here! Brandon got a pair to try out and was I ever impressed! He loves to swim and be in the water, he was born a water baby. If you say bath he will run into the bathroom and start taking off his clothes!


We were going to use them the other day at Kristina's school swim, we all got to go to the outdoor pool and she got to swim with her class. Brandon and I went in and without really reading the instructions to well I tried to find the opening to blow the air into the cushions. They need to be wet to retain the air so I got them all wet and couldn't figure out how to fill them with air. As it turns out there is no hole or place to blow the air in, you blow it in through the fabric. You know how wet sheets can get a bubble of air in them when you wash them and it doesn't come out? This is the same theory. Basically you wet the cushions down and fold a corner in and then with your thumbs in the corner you blow them full of air.



These are not arm floaters either. There is a strap that goes around the child's torso and the cushions go just behind their arms on their back. The perfect place to help them learn to swim. The cushions keep you afloat and are out of your way so that you can learn how to swim properly and do all of the strokes! This is really an amazing product and you really need to check it out!!!

*** This is not a lifesaving device and you need to closely monitor your children while in any body of water ***
