Campbell's Go Coconut Curry with Chicken and Shitake Mushrooms Review

I admit it. As a stay-at-home mom of 2 girls, there are times when I feel too lazy to prepare and cook our meals from scratch so I look for other alternative food in the market that are easy to prepare and at the same time healthy and of course should taste good.

I was given the chance to review the Campbell's Go Coconut Curry With Chickenand Shitake Mushrooms. I was sent a free product to taste. Here is the actual product sent to me.

I was glad of the flavor because I love curry dishes. I also noticed that the packaging is nice and the preparation time is really fast. You just have to cut along the line at the back (I didn't even use a scissors to cut it. It was very easy to cut using my hand) and then microwave on high for 2 to 2 1/2 minutes.

I instantly smelled the curry flavoring as soon as I opened it. It smelled very good and nice.

I microwaved it for 2 minutes and then transferred it to a bowl.

I wanted to try it with rice so I put it on a plate with white rice.

I expected it to taste like other out of the pouch food products I've tried before but to my surprise, it tasted great! I love the curry taste. It was perfect for me. I also love the vegetables in it. I didn't expect them to be so crunchy and fresh tasting.

Overall, I would definitely buy more of these flavor. There are 6 flavors available:

• Moroccan Style Chicken with Chickpeas
• Golden Lentil with Madras Curry
• Creamy Red Pepper with Smoked Gouda
• Coconut Curry with Chicken and Shitake Mushrooms
• Chicken & Quinoa with Poblano Chilies
• Spicy Chorizo and Pulled Chicken with Black Beans

Pocoyo's World Review

 

I have been given the opportunity to watch and review Pocoyo's World. My 2 and 4 year old daughters have always loved Pocoyo and I too love waching the cute little guy in blue clothes. I also like the other characters like Pato the Duck and Elli the Elephant. :) My daughters got excited when I opened the package and gave them the DVD. They watched it and I watched with them too.  I personally like The Seed episode because it taught my daughters how seeds grow to a plant. We actually made our own experiment of seeds and I showed them how to water them everyday so that they'll grow. I also like Pato's egg because my daughters learned what animal hatches from an egg. Other stories are very educational too and very simple to undertand so little kids can watch it too. :)

I always love it when my daughters find something they want to watch and pay attentively to it. I love it even more that Pocoyo teaches kids different things in a simple way. This is a great DVD even for little kids because it i so easy to understand and funny too. :)

About the DVD: Join in on the fun that is Pocoyo’s World!  You’ll laugh right along with Pocoyo and his friends on twelve fun-filled adventures! Whether it’s planting a seed, embarking on a camping trip or making friends with a little cloud, every day is an adventure in Pocoyo’s World!

Children's Mucinex Multi-Symptom Cold Review for Smiley360

When my daughters have the cold or stuffy nose, their moods change a lot as though they're different persons. Their sweetness and their sunny nature completely changes into a moody person. I feel bad for them everytime they have a stuffy nose and/or cough. They have allergies all through out the year that often leads to colds. I am very excited to have tried the Children's Mucinex Multi-cold symptom medicine for my 4 year old daughter. She liked the sweet berry taste very much unlike other cold medicine that has the bitter taste in them. I am also very surprised that it is very fast-acting. I have used store brands before because they're cheaper but now, I wouldn't hesitate to buy the Children's mucinex specially now that I've tried it and I've seen the difference.

Right now Mucinex is offering a $2 off coupon on any Children's Mucinex product

If you are unsure about using Children’s Mucinex® Multi-Symptom Cold liquid for your child, talk to your pediatrician.

Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition Miracle Review for BzzAgent

I am a BzzAgent and I was given the opportunity to be on a campaign for the Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition. I was sent a full-sized sample for this campaign for me to try and review this product.

What I noticed when I first tried it was the smell. I love the smell. It is light scented and a little bit fruity.

I like the effect on my skin. I noticed that my skin became more moisturized and looked healthier after a few days of using it.

For my hair, it's a different issue. It made my hair look greasier even if I used just a little amount of it. I do like the effect if I wanted my hair to be straighter because it also weighed down my hair. So if I wanted to have a sleek, straight-hair look, I would use this on my hair.

Sid the Science Kid the Movie Review

Last week, I received a copy of Sid the Science Kid the Movie from NCircle Entertainment. As soon as I opened the package, my 2 year old daughter immediately held the DVD and wanted to watch it. I did play it and watched the movie with my 4 and 2 year old.

This is one of the movies we watched that they stay focused until the end of the movie.

The story is about Sid and Gabriella winning a contest to go to the newly built science museum. They met with 2 other kid scientists from China (Yangyang and Nunu) who also won the contest. They met the professor who built the museum. He showed them the solar system and introduced them to his robots. What sticked to my mind among the robots was the robot who changes dirty diapers of babies. LOL. Imagine if that was real!Then they met Bobby Bot who would tour them around the museum. They first went to the dinosaur world where Bobby Bot showed them the T-Rex and made it roar. They next went to the beehive where they saw super big bees the size of humans. They then went to a room that looks about playground and was taught about pulleys and probability. Then they went to a room that teaches about lightning. That's when the problem arises when Bobby Bot broke down and they tried to reprogram him. Bobby Bot became crazy and made the T-Rex dance, made the bees "moo" instead of buzzing and a lot more. Sid then came to the rescue by telling jokes so that they can reprogram Bobby Bot before the science museum opens to the public.

What I like about it is that it is very entertaining to my 2 and 4 year old. The movie taught about the basic solar system, dinosaurs (the T-REX) bees and the beehive, lightning, robots, pulleys, probability and Sid's jokes. :) What I like about it is that it is intended for children aged 4 and up. My 4 year old daughter understood the movie well. My 2 year old didn't understand it much but still she had fun watching it. It also taught sportsmanship because in every room, Bobby Bot asks a question and most of the time, the 2 older kid scientist (Yangyang and Nunu) answers the question correctly.

This is a great movie and would definitely be educational to children 4 and up. :)

Sweetheart VoxBox from Influenster Review

I am a member of Influenster and I received this Sweetheart VoxBox to review. I was excited to open the box so here is a video of me opening it.

The box contained the Olay cleansing system, Secret clinical strength Serence citrus scent, Not your mother's volumizing hair spray and Skinny girl Greek yogurt blueberry crisp flavor.

I tried the Olay cleansing system and I instantly liked the smell of the facial cleanser. The cleansing brush also feels great on my face. It felt like it was massaging my face. I also felt my face was cleaner after I used the cleansing brush and the cleanser.

This is the first time I've tried the Secret Clinical Strength Stress Response. I like the scent because it is kind of citrus. I also like that it gave me maximum protection when I was excercising.

I also received the Not Your Mother's She's a Teas Volumizing hairspray. I haven't tried it yet and I really don't use hairpsray often. But the smell is nice and I will use it the next time I need to.

The Skinnygirl bar was delicious and my 4 year old liked the taste. The sweetness is just right and I like that it is healthier ifever I want something sweet.

Review on MorningStar Farms Veggie Burgers (BzzAgent)

I was lucky enough to be on a BzzCampaign for Morningstar Farms. I was given a Free product coupon and money-saving coupons to hand out to friends and families. There are a lot of Veggie alternatives to choose from but I chose the MorningStar Grillers Prime Veggie Burgers to try with my family.

I'd like to keep it plain so I fried the veggie patties with a little bit of cooking oil and then served it hot with white rice and mayonnaise for dipping. You can try other Morningstar Farms recipes here http://www.morningstarfarms.com/recipe-search.html

What I like about it is that it is a healthier alternative to meat burgers and the taste is okay. The texture is a bit different from meat burgers because it is too grinded. The taste is different from meat burgers. Personally, I would prefer the taste and texture of meat burgers but we can still get used to the taste of the veggie burgers knowing that it is healthier and a great alternative.
