New Balance Chop Chop Run The Rainbow Eat The Rainbow Shoe Giveaway

March 11, 2013 by Momstart 118 Comments

New Balance is partnering with Chop Chop magazine to encourage families to “Run the Rainbow/Eat the Rainbow,” or educate readers on the benefits of exercise and healthy eating for the whole family. Launching in March, Chop Chop and New Balance will be running a sweepstakes in which entrants have a chance to receive a $400 gift card to their favorite local grocery store, as well as monthly prize packs including a 1-year subscription to Chop Chop magazine and a pair Rainbow 890v3s.

We received a pair of awesome shoes. Zoe just adores them but it will be a few years before her little feet can fit into the 890v3 Rainbow shoes by New Balance. So we found a little girl with size 3.5 feet (growing room included) and passed them on. Turns out she needed some new tennis shoes for school anyway and what a way to start your exercise, with the rainbow.

· Kids are on the move, and the astonishingly light 890v3 Rainbow is astonishingly light without sacrificing quality or style

· ABZORB cushioning in the midfoot provides exceptional shock absorption

It’s very important to me that my kids are eating healthy foods. We have veggies and fruit for snacks and lunch and dinner. It’s also very important that we stay active as a family. We have a membership to the local YMCA and I do a lot of walking while the kids have gymnastics swimming and will be starting soccer next month. We have a very busy schedule now. What do you do to keep you family healthy and in the rainbow?

Loving The New Balance 688 Cute & Supportive Shoe Review

September 15, 2011 by Momstart 544 Comments

Miles looks so grown up in his new shoes from New Balance. He put them on himself notice they are not quite tied and on the wrong feet but he gets an a for effort. I wish they were Velcro, but I guess it’s never too soon to start teaching your child to tie their own shoes.

He Loves them too which is most important. He wants to wear them all the time. He’s so hard on shoes at play time though that I told him he can’t wear them when he rids his motorcycle. No shoe was meant to be break pads going down a large steep hill.

Now we know Miles likes them, let’s talk about why I like them. I like them because they look like he’s comfortable. He also wants to wear them which is huge for a parent. They are quite flexible, even though my kids are so far past learning how to walk, I still like them to be in shoes that I can fold in half because they are so flexible and these I can. So I’m really happy with these shoes and I would buy New Balance for my kids to wear in the future.

Umi Fun Children’s Shoe Review and Giveaway

February 22, 2011 by Momstart 388 Comments

Zoe and I both have a great appreciation for color in our shoes. Umi shoes has fantastic colors, varieties, and comfort all in their shoes. I’ve loved umi as a brand for six years, almost seven. I was first introduced to umi as a shoe sales manager. The store I was working in started carrying umi and they were one of the easiest shoes to sell because they were the most colorful and had the largest variety. umi makes shoes for babies, toddlers and children, all in fun colorful designs. I know I’ve said this before in past shoe reviews, I wish I could get a pair of umi shoes. I would love to have the exact same pair that Zoe just received from umi to review.

Umi sent us the Riley in purple and pink. This canvas sneaker is comfortable, supportive and durable all important qualities for a kid’s shoe. The Riley features a lace up style with vulcanized rubber toe and outsole, which is what helps provide the extra durability. The Riley retails for 50.00.

Zoe’s review would be she absolutely loves them and wants to wear them every day. We tried them on and she didn’t want to take them off. She wants to wear them every day. Even Miles likes them, he always says, Zoe should get to wear her new purples shoes today mommy they are her favorite color. That’s why I like them. He’s such a good brother!

Last year we received the Lauren in Lavender and it was a huge hit as well. They lasted forever and we were even able to wash and dry them in the washing machine which is a huge help for moms.

Umi believes that it takes years of experience to make a great pair of shoes and they have that. Umi shoes also believes that caring for little feet also means caring for the earth. They set their standards sky-high. Every shoe they make is tested for safety and durability and meets strict guidelines for child-safe materials. They use non-toxic drum-dyed leathers and other environmentally friendly components. They are protected in recycled packaging.
