Nobody understands infant safety like Graco! So naturally, I was elated to have the awesome opportunity to host a very fun and informative event for Graco at my local Babies R Us here in Charlotte N.C.! The event attendees and I had a blast taking turns answering celebrity baby trivia questions, munching on cookies and learning about Gracos’ newest car seat, the Graco SnugRide® Click Connect™ 40. Did I mention two very lucky ladies walked away with brand new Graco SnugRide® Click Connect™ 40 car seats as well?  Everybody at the event walked away with a fun Graco tote bag and photo album!

The Graco SnugRide® Click Connect™ 40 is the only car seat on the market that can hold your baby from birth (4lbs+) up to 40 pounds! The car seat literally converts from a carrier, to a car seat and you can even add attachments to make it a stroller! Such an amazing and versatile product is a necessity for any new mother and ESPECIALLY moms on the go. Every part of the Graco SnugRide® Click Connect™ 40 is adjustable, from the foot rest and the harness to the base maximizing your babies comfort and making sure the car seat fits securely and snugly in your car. Graco SnugRide® Click Connect™ 40 is easy to use too moms! You can even adjust the harness and headrest with just one hand.  There are a whopping 8 different reclining positions to comfort to your babies growing size and we all know a happy baby makes for a much more pleasant car ride. 😉

The Graco SnugRide® Click Connect™ 40 is one of the safest car seats available on the market right now because the seat allows your baby to be rear facing up to 40 pounds, recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics and 5x safer then a front facing car seat.

The Graco SnugRide® Click Connect™ 40 – the first and only newborn to two-year infant car seat that actually grows with your baby from four pounds all the way up to 40 pounds. The car seat is designed for a parent on the go. The infant car seat can be easily removed from the base and used as a carrier when the infant is small, providing portability and convenience so you can easily move your infant in and out of the car without disturbing them.

The American Academy of Pediatrics recently made the recommendation to keep all children in rear-facing car seats until the age of 2. Graco set out to make this product so parents can keep infants rear facing longer while still keeping them comfortable.

Making a fire has never been easier now that I own the Zippo Emergency Fire Starter kit. The reliable flint wheel ignition easily lights the water-resistant Waxed Tinder Sticks and with a water-resistant O-ring seal built into the case, the contents stay dry. And the best part is, it’s so easy anybody can do it! You simply start by opening up the Zippo (like you would with a normal Zippo lighter), you then pull out an individual Waxed Tinder Stick and gently pull and spread the cotton fibers apart, you will then proceed to place the Waxed Tinder Stick on the ground (preferably surrounded by contents that will easily ignite i.e. paper towel, dry leafs, dry moss, etc.) You then place the Emergency Fire Starter Kit directly above the Waxed Tinder Stick and rotate the flint wheel in the specified direction to create a series of sparks. Repeat this process until the Waxed Tinder Sticks ignite then gently blow on the fire to spread the flame.

The Zippo Emergency Fire Starter Kit is ideal for any outdoor expedition or camping trip.  Whether you go hunting, fishing, kayaking, mountain biking, or hiking…I would personally recommend carrying the Zippo Emergency Fire Starter kit on my person at all times. You NEVER know when you might need to start a fire (or how to start one) until it’s too late- don’t be that guy! My Zippo Emergency Fire Starter also came in a bright orange case which makes it stand out and highly visible to the naked eye (especially if you dropped it in let’s say a pile of leafs). Not only does this Fire Starting kit get the job done every time, but it also can be done with relative ease and minimum effort!
