Munchkin Spill-Proof Sports Bottles

It’s no secret that we are huge fans of Munchkin products around here – I’ve reviewed their foam bath letters in the past, and today I’m going to tell you about something else from Munchkin that my kids have been using and abusing for the past few months: Spill-Proof Sports Bottles featuring Dora the Explorer and Go, Diego, Go!

We received four of these the night before we headed out for our road trip to California. My kids used them HEAVILY for an entire week, and if you check out our family pictures, you can see them sipping on Gatorade and ice water out of these bottles in front of Big Bear Lake, while seated at Manuel’s El Teypeyac restaurant in east L.A., at various In-N-Out burger locations, and of course, all day LONG at Disneyland.

When your little one is on the go, let her enjoy a refreshing drink in a spill-proof sports bottle that features Dora. The soft, built-in silicone spout and valve helps transition your little lady from bottle to cup with ease. And, the contoured shape makes it easy to grasp. So be a sport and let your kid in on the action.

The bottles are a nice size for little kids. I have twin almost-5-year-olds and twin 3 1/2-year-olds, and my kids may actually be on the older end of the spectrum as far as these bottles are concerned. They worked GREAT for us, but they’d be even better for little ones just barely off the bottle. The soft plastic spout is made from the same squishy material as a typical baby bottle nipple, so it’s not hard at all on little tender gums and teeth, and VERY easy to drink from. If these had been available when my monkeys were littler, I would have been all over them for sure. The shape of the bottles also makes them super easy for little chubby hands to hold onto.

We used these bottles almost daily for two whole months. Sadly, one of ours has gone missing – I’m sure it’s stashed away under the slide or something – and we’ve been mourning its loss for a couple of weeks now. Even after going through the dishwasher dozens of times, the bottles look nearly new. Thumbs up all around from the Casa de Chaos.

Luvs Anita Renfroe Video

Luvs diapers has a fun little campaign going on right now…have you seen that video on YouTube by comedienne Anita Renfroe – it’s the “Mom-sense” song, set to the William Tell Overture? It’s hysterical. If you haven’t seen it, poke around YouTube for a minute, and you should find it pretty easily. Well, there’s a sequel to it that just came out today on the Luvs diapers website. Check it out!

I love Luvs diapers – my kids are actually out of diapers now (thank God! 4 kids in diapers – whew. It ain’t for the faint of heart) but we always used Luvs, for years – they cost so much less, and they work great. Right now they’re doing a campaign on TAKING A STAND against paying more for decent diapers – it’s pretty cute:

Luvs is also offering a $5 off coupon via its website, starting today, and is encouraging moms everywhere to take a stand against pricier diapers by pledging to choose products that offer premium features for no extra cost. Quantities are LIMITED and available on a first-come, first-served basis. Click on the cute little van below to get to the Luvs site, then click on the “Reap Revolutionary Rewards” link. Sign up for an account to get your $5 off coupon. Yay!
