Dora and SpongeBob Partner with Kidorable for Rainy Day Fun

January 3, 2013 · by Tiffany Merritt · Leave a Comment

Do you have a SpongeBob or Dora the Explorer fan in your house? Darah happens to love both characters. I enjoy watching Dora with her from time to time, and drawing maps together so that we can be explorers just like her.

SpongeBob, I must say, continues to confuse me. He reminds me a bit of Ren and Stimpy, though less crass and more suited for a younger audience. I find him to be an odd bird, but Darah thinks he is hilarious. She is especially fond of his pet snail, Gary, who in every way mimics the mannerisms of a cat.

Told you it was strange.

But if your kids are fans of either character or of both, then you’ll be excited to hear that Kidorable now has rain gear products (rain boots, rain jackets and umbrellas) with Dora and SpongeBob on them.

Dora Kidorable

I recently picked up a Dora the Explorer rain jacket for Darah to wear next fall (she already has a rain jacket for this season). I was really impressed with the level of detail on the jacket. Licensed character merchandise is rarely my favorite thing, but the Kidorable products have the same attention to details as everything else in their line. Well done, Kidorable!

I am looking forward to the adventures we will have out exploring with Dora this fall, rain or shine! The rain jacket we reviewed retails for $45 and comes in sizes 12-18m through 6x.

I received a complimentary product for review purposes. All thoughts and opinions expressed here are strictly my own.

Kidorable Helps Make Picking Up Clothes More Fun: Coupon Code!

June 12, 2012 · by Tiffany Merritt · Leave a Comment

About twice each week, Darah and I spend some time with each other cleaning up her room. Darah focuses on putting away the toys, and I am tasked with putting her clean clothes away. We hope to make some changes to her closet in the near future so that Darah will be able to put her clothes away all by herself (currently the closet rod is much too high for her).

Once we make her closet more toddler-friendly in terms of access, I also want to make it more toddler-friendly in terms of the aesthetic. I will be adding a few extra special hangers that will delight Darah, and also help her learn how to keep her clothes separated by type. She has a few costumes that will be available to play with, but they need to be kept seperated from her everyday attire. Kidorable is going to help Darah learn how to keep her dress up clothes in their own grouping, all thanks to their fantastic wooden hangers. These aren’t just any wooden hangers, though! They have wonderful designs that coordinate with other Kidorable products.

Darah is going to get the mermaid hangers because she is currently obsessed with mermaids. She also happens to have a mermaid costume, and what better to hang it up with than a mermaid hanger?! The quality of these hangers is awesome; they are hand carved and hand painted! A set is just $20 for the smaller size, and $22.50 for the larger size. These are definitely a fun way to help bring some fun design elements to your child’s closet, and to help them turn the chore of putting away clothes into something much more fun.

From June 11-18 Kidorable is offering a 20% discount on their hanger sets! Simply enter code CLEANUP2 at checkout to get your discount!

Disclosure: I received complimentary products for review purposes. All thoughts and opinions expressed here are strictly my own.

Kidorable Dragon Knight Collection and AWESOME COUPON CODE!!!

December 6, 2011 · by Tiffany Merritt · Leave a Comment

Kidorable, the makers of those too-cute-for-words children’s umbrellas (among other things) have just launched the Dragon Knight collection. All of you parents of dragon slayers and brave knights listen up! From December 5-11, you can use the coupon code DRAGON7 to receive a FREE Dragon Knight umbrella with any order over $20 (be sure to add the umbrella to your cart before using the code so that it works). Um, yeah, that’s an AWESOME deal, and just in time for the holiday crunch…see, last minute gifts can be AMAZING and bargain-priced!

Now that I’ve told you about the awesome deal, let me tell you more about the Dragon Knight collection. We received the rain jacket to review. I’m saving this to give to my nephew when he is big enough for it. I’ve let Darah try it on to see how it looks and it is simply smashing! The hood is my favorite, as it looks like a medieval helmet! I almost can’t stand the cuteness, people. This coat is also made of a new material called PU (polyurethane). It’s softer and lighter than PVC, which is what is typically used for rain coats.

The Dragon Knight collection has a variety of super cute pieces. While the rain jacket is my personal favorite, the umbrella, with its dragon horns and wings sticking out, comes in a close second. 

Slay those outstanding items on your Christmas list right now with help from Kidorable, or get stocked up for birthdays in 2012 with this deal!

(NEW POST!) Kidorable Makes Kid Towels To Grow With Your Child! (GIVEAWAY!!!)

October 4, 2011 · by Tiffany Merritt · 71 Comments

When Darah was a baby, she had the CUTEST collection of towels. Lots of adorable hooded and super soft things; it was so much fun to wrap her in all that cuteness.

Unfortunately, it seems that whoever makes most of the baby towels in this world borrowed notes from the people who make most of the swaddling blankets, and that means that they are WAY TOO SMALL. Darah never was a big baby, but she still outgrew her towels by the time she was just over a year old. RIDICULOUS!

Kidorable, the makers of those insanely cute umbrellas, rain jackets and rain boots, also has a line of kid towels, only they sized them right! You can purchase a small which they will tell you up front will last you until about age 2 (that’s an improvement over most other small towels!), or you can go with a toddler size, which should get you from 3-6.

We checked out the Lucky Cat towel, and it is AWESOME! I can tell now that it will last for several years, both because of its size, and also because of the overall quality of the towel. Yes, the price is higher than what you might pay for a kid’s towel at a big box store, but you are going to get something that will last longer and be twice as cute.

Kidorable towels also come packaged beautifully, in a cute plastic container that only needs to be plopped in a gift bag in order to be ready to go for a birthday party! I love when companies go the distance with every detail, because it makes me much more likely to turn to them for gift-giving occasions. I despise wrapping gifts, and I have a bit of a complex about my packages always looking so unfortunate (and they really do…I almost couldn’t be worse at wrapping). Kidorable makes it easy for your present to shine! 🙂

I also love that the Kidorable website will show you every other product they offer in the same theme that you are considering. For example, the Lucky Cat theme can also be found on an umbrella, jacket, boots, backpack and hangers. It’s easy to put together a really fun collection for someone over time!

Buy it!: Kidorable towels are available in 10 fabulous styles (don’t miss the fireman! SOOO cute!) for $33.00.

Win it!: Oh goody! I get to host a giveaway for the product that put Kidorable on the map….their umbrellas!!!!
