#Giveaway: Eraselet - Bracelet Eraser

The Eraselet® is a bracelet eraser invented by my hubby after our 3 daughters kept loosing their erasers! Eraselets are made in the USA & 10% of our net profits go to help http://www.eraseworldhunger.org

Eraselets are available individually, in packs of 6 or can be customized just for your needs!   Dollar General Market Stores offers Eraselet® as a 1.00 item! Scripture Eraselets are available at all Lifeway Christian Stores in packs of 6!

Here's What I think: My son absolutely loved this! At first we wasn't sure how to use it. It is really important that you flip it inside out to erase something, but other than that, it totally works. He loved it so much that he gave a few to his teacher, who is totally amazed by them. This is such a cool and useful item, that I am planning to buy them for a prize on our next fundraiser at school.

BUY IT: You can purchase your own set of Eraselets on their website

WIN IT: One lucky GUIDE reader will win their own pack of Eraselets

Cold Sore Prevention Tips for Your Kids

Cold Sore Prevention Tips for Your Kids
They have done studies on cold sores for years, so they're plenty of information out there about them. Unfortunately there is no remedy or treatment that is effect 100% of the time. You and your kids best strategy in preventing and treating cold sore outbreaks are home remedies from your kitchen and bathroom cabinets.
Cold Sore Tips
1. NO TOUCHING!
As soon as your child sees a cold sore start to form on their lip or any other part of their bodies, tell them to not touch the infected area. You should constantly remind that touching the cold sore will only make it worst.
2. NO KISSING!
Kissing is one of the main ways the cold sore virus spreads, so tell your child to save those kisses for when the cold sore is gone.
3. Get a New Toothbrush
Get a brand new toothbrush as soon as a cold sore rears its ugly head on your child. Toothbrushes stay wet for long hours and are the perfect home for viruses and bacteria. You can get toothbrushes for as little as $1, so price shouldn't be an issue.
4. No More Sugar
Sugar is known to trigger the herpes simplex virus, the cause of cold sores. Your best bet is to remove sugar from your children's diet or keep servings to a minimum.
5. Increase Protein Sources in Your Childs Diet
Protein sources such as fish, turkey, beef, and other meats are known to be high in the amino acid lysine. Lysine has been known to inhibit the cold sore virus, so increasing your child's protein intake will help in preventing cold sore outbreaks.
With these tips, you and your children can become really good at preventing and treating those pesky cold sores when they arrive.

#Giveaway: SmartBones Dog Bones

SmartBones, by PetMatrix, are chew treats made with chicken, vegetables and other healthy ingredients. These rawhide-free treats are perfect for the four-to-five out of 10 consumers who prefer not to feed their dogs rawhide. “Chew treats are an important part of every healthy dog’s diet,” said PetMatrix Chief Science Officer Martin Glinsky, Ph.D. “Eating kibble alone doesn’t thoroughly exercise a dog’s mouth and can cause teeth to become disused and plaque-ridden. This ultimately may lead to additional health problems.” And, since keeping pets healthy is paramount, SmartBones contain a special vegetable layer that is fortified with vitamins and minerals to help supplement daily nutritional requirements. In fact, these treats are the first of their kind to be fortified and offer more nutritional benefits than standard chew treats. This is because rawhide treats are made with animal byproducts that offer “zero” nutritional value, Dr. Glinsky said. “Even though rawhide is a form of protein, all proteins aren’t equal,” Dr. Glinsky said. “Rawhide is an extremely low-quality form of protein, not the type that animals need for nutrition.”

• SmartBones are 99.2% digestible, which is higher than the digestibility of premium dog foods (85% digestibility). Chicken, vegetables and other healthy ingredients dogs will love are used in making SmartBones. 
• SmartBones are the first treats of their kind to be enhanced with vitamins and minerals. SmartBones are safer for dogs than regular rawhide treats, which may cause intestinal blockages. 
• SmartBones are environmentally friendly, whereas a toxic chemical process is needed to create consumable rawhide for treats. Nine out of 10 dogs prefer SmartBones over rawhide treats. 
• SmartBones are available in Peanut Butter and Chicken Flavors. There is also a Dental variety with additional teeth health benefits. 

Here's What I Think: I have had dogs my whole life and never understood why anyone would give them something like rawhide - which has no real value to their well-being. When I was asked to review SmartBones, I was thrilled. My dog does have mild digestions issues, so I really liked that it was listed with such a high digestibility rating. As soon as I opened the package my dog was sitting and asking for one. And I think it's safe to say that my dog is one of those 9 dogs that prefer SmartBones!

WIN IT: One Lucky Winner will receive a Prize Package from SmartBones
