Don't forget to pick up the Licefreee Spray! with a free coupon nowthat the kids are back in school! #licefree

I received a complimentary bottle of Licefreee Spray! through One2One Network.  My opinions are my own.

It has happened to several of my friends over the years. Not a fun event, that is for sure but an outbreak of lice is now manageable especially with better options out there like Licefreee Spray!  It was actually invented by a fellow mom, Wendy Langley.The active ingredient in Licefreee Spray is salt (aka, sodium chloride or natrum muriaticum). So, the active ingredient is non-toxic. This is a fact that is very important to the vast majority of parents. No one wants to dose their children with chemicals if it is not necessary.  Licefreee Spray! will work the first time it is applied too.

Tec Labs is the maker of Licefreee Products and they have been around for a long time.  They are actually a family owned pharmaceutical company based in Oregon. I am a big, long time fan of Tecnu and Calagel (I am one of those sad souls who is highly allergic to poison ivy). Both those products have saved me from either getting poison ivy or at least reducing the spread and itch significantly. I was thrilled to hear they were the manufacturers of Licefreee Spray! 

It is easy to find the bright purple bottles and colorful packaging.  Licefreee Spray! retails for around $10 for a 6 oz bottle, which is typically enough product to treat at least two children—depending on the length of the child’s hair. Licefreee Spray! can be used on kids as young as 6 months too.  You got the whole family covered with a non-toxic option. A very high quality stainless steel comb is included, in case a parent wants to do a comb out. Licefreee Spray! is pleasant smelling to kids and adults and a cinch to apply.  It couldn't be easier. A parent only needs to saturate the hair and let the hair dry for the lice to be dead.

Licefreee Spray! is available nationally at Walmart, Walgreens, Dollar General, Kroger and many regional chains.  Walgreens has had Licefreee Spray! for a few years now so you can see there are tons of good reviews on their site.  You can get an idea from other consumer experiences to make you feel more confident and get tips from other moms and dads that have been there and dealt with it before. Licefreee Spray! even maintains a toll free Mama and Daddy help and sanity number too.  You can call them anytime at 1-800-ITCHING.  They are so confident that they stand behind Licefreee Spray! and unconditionally guarantee it 100%

Licefreee Spray! just wants to get the word out to help put a parents’ mind at ease. Speaking from experience, a head lice outbreak causes an immense amount of anxiety, fear, frustration, stress,  panic and many other negative emotions for parents and children. Licefreee can help in a real and profound way so a family can, hopefully, avoid all the drama, tears and heartbreak that comes with a head lice infestation.  Here is a manufacturer coupon for $2 off a bottle of Licefreee Spray! at http://licefreee.com/en/save/.

There are so many challenges involved in bringing up children today. It seems like it is scarier than ever to ensure you have a child who has their beacon set in the right direction.  Johann Christoph Arnold is confident that diligent parents and educators can set children in the proper direction with proper forethought.  He has some ideas that make you think differently and have hope that you can bring your children up right even amidst all the craziness and internet frenzy out there.

If you want to glean insights into how to raise and influence children to be more compassionate and considerate, more courageous and confident, more independent, secure, and unselfish; if you want your children to be more loving and joy-filled, then get reading!” —excerpt from Mark K. Shriver’s Foreword (President of Save the Children Action Network)

Despite a perfect storm of hostile forces that threaten to deny children a healthy, happy childhood, courageous parents and teachers can turn the tide. Yes, we can reclaim childhood, says Johann Christoph Arnold, whose books have helped more than a million readers through the challenges of education and family life. In Their Name Is Today, he highlights drastic changes in the way our society treats children. But he also brings together the voices of dedicated parents and educators who are finding creative ways to give children the time and space they need to grow. Cutting through the noise of conflicting opinions, Arnold takes us to the heart of education and parenting by defending every child’s right to the joy and wonder of childhood.

A noted speaker and writer on marriage, parenting, and end-of-life issues, Arnold is a senior pastor of the Bruderhof, a movement of Christian communities. With his wife, Verena, he has counseled thousands of individuals and families over the last forty years, as well as serving as an advisor at several innovative private schools. Arnold’s message has been shaped by encounters with great peacemakers such as Martin Luther King Jr., Mother Teresa, Dorothy Day, Cėsar Chavez, and John Paul II. Born in Great Britain in 1940 to German refugees, Arnold spent his boyhood years in South America, where his parents found asylum during the war; he immigrated to the US in 1955. He and his wife have eight children, forty-four grandchildren, and one great-grandchild. They live in upstate New York.

Acclaim for the author:

Limm iPhone Armband Review #iPhoneArmband

I love to go running and when I am not running, I am at the gym about 4 times a week. Even when I am away on business, I keep to my fitness schedule. I used to worry so much about losing or damaging my iPhone, I was a nervous nellie with protecting it. In comes the LIMM Sports Armband to take one problem right off my plate. Nothing protects my phone better than the Limm Sports Armband. I love that this band is made of high quality materials.  Another great features of this band is that it is a fully adjustable armband. It allows you to enjoy all the features of my iPhone 5 (it is compatible with iPhone 5/5S/5C/4/4S and Samsung S4) while keeping it secure, protected and accessible during a run, workout or whatever other crazy exercises I am doing that particular day. 

The Limm iPhone Armband is super comfortable and extremely lightweight!  I am pretty petite and it totally doesn't weigh me down at all no matter what I am doing.

Limm Armband Product Features: 

• Access all your device's buttons and features
• Insert/remove device quickly and conveniently
• Elastic Velcro strap stays tightly and securely attached to your arm
• Lycar and Neoprene case is very lightweight and provides comfort
• Protection against heavy sweating as well as light rain
• Front/back screen protectors
• Key holder
• Hand-washable

So many people are out there working hard to get themselves fit and healthy. Trust me, I know it is no easy task. I remember how hard I worked to lose the baby weight after my Little Glamamama was born...it was a while back but I worked like a dog to get rid of those extra pounds.  Limm worked hard themselves to design a great product that works well for most all of us but they did want to share with you that the iPhone armband fits arm sizes of 10-3/4" to 16-1/8" in circumference.  Please measure before you buy it to make sure it works for you. I am hoping it works for all of my readers.

Now, don't forget...this great Limm armband works with a variety of devices including the following:

1- Armband is compatible with iPhone 5, 5s, 5c, 4 and 4s (all of these without a case).
2- Armband is compatible with iPod Touch 4 / 5 (without a case).

You can buy the Limm iPhone Armband on Amazon and make life a little more convenient for you too.

I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.
