Simplay3 Toddler Tower Adjustable Stool Giveaway #SimplayFun

Disclosure: Susie's Reviews receives compensation or products from brands in exchange for the posts on this site Our opinions are honest and our own.

Cooking with toddlers can be fun, educational, and even help them learn to eat new foods. My kids love to come in the kitchen and help with cooking, dishes, and other activities. When your toddler is in the kitchen with you it is so important to keep safety in mind. 

With the Toddler Tower Adjustable Stool from Simplay3 your child can step up to the action at the counter, table, or sink with an added sense of security, enclosed at 3 platform heights!

Kids love to get a boost up where the action is alongside their parents and grandparents whether it’s in the kitchen, bathroom or in the home workshop! It’s perfect for caregivers in schools and child care environments too. This sturdy step up tower is an adjustable booster platform that elevates toddlers to standard 36” counter height and 30” table heights. Designed with safety in mind, high sides surround the child and aid balance while washing hands, brushing teeth, or tackling chores. Non-skid rubber stoppers secure the base and prevent sliding. Made in the USA.

Kids Climb

Kids want to be where the action is - with parents, grandparents and older siblings. That presents a few issues. Kids are small, so in order to wash their hands at a grown up sink or bake cookies at a grown up sized counter, they need a step up. Standing on chairs can be an issue since kids can easily fall off. 

A Safer Way to Climb

Simplay3 developed an affordable, safer step stool alternative for kids that was fun to climb and super easy to clean and sanitize as well. The rounded, roto molded edges, high supportive sides, adjustable step and non-skid pads make this Toddler Tower Adjustable Stool a must have for the vertically challenged.

The Toddler Tower Adjustable Stool was kid tested and approved in homes and office before being made available to the public. The companies children and grandchildren tested all of their products at points along the design and manufacturing process to be sure they will function and be loved just as intended.

For more information about Simplay3 visit their website and follow them on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.

One lucky reader will win the Simplay3 Toddler Tower Adjustable Stool!  The giveaway is open to US readers ages 18+ and ends on 3/1/19.  Void where prohibited by law. Good luck!

Term vs. Whole Life Insurance Policies For Newlyweds

Today’s blog post on Susie's Reviews is about understanding term vs. whole life insurance policies as part of a sponsored post with Mason Finance.

Life insurance for newlyweds is usually not your focus as you prepare for the on the big day But after you are married, it’s an important topic for young couples.

Many people don’t think about getting life insurance until they have children. You may not need a lot of life insurance as a newlywed couple without children, but you at least need some basic life insurance coverage.

Marriage means accepting responsibility for another life. Once the honeymoon is over, it’s time to get back to real life and what that responsibility really means.
Life insurance for newlyweds should be on your agenda because it gives you peace of mind knowing you will be able to take care of your new spouse if something happens to you.

Most newlyweds are enthusiastically looking forward to a happy and healthy life together and this can easily obscure the unfortunate reality that bad things happen to people every day. Being prepared is a selfless act that makes it possible to support a surviving spouse as well as any children so they can continue without a financial burden. Read below to learn about Term vs. Whole Life Insurance.

Term Life Insurance

Term life insurance is the most affordable type because the coverage does not last a lifetime. Instead, your insurance will last for a term of 10-30 years. This type of policy has no cash value accumulation. That means you will need to pay your premium every month but you will get nothing back if the policy eventually expires.

You will have guaranteed death benefits for as long as the policy is in effect. The premium you pay will likely be fixed for a certain period of time and then it may get higher.

Cash Value Life Insurance

How about cash value life insurance? This type of life insurance does cost more to begin with, but will remain in force for the insured’s entire life as long as the premiums are paid. This type of insurance has a built-in savings account that grows tax-deferred over the life of the policy, which can then be used as retirement savings. Though more expensive, more of the cash value policies pay out their death benefits than term policies. Plus, cash value policies can eventually accumulate to the point where they become paid up, which means that you won’t have to make any more premium payments to keep the policy in force.

Cash value accumulation can eventually become a substantial asset for you after you have paid premiums into the policy for many years. And policy loans may not need to be repaid, but rather they will simply reduce the amount of cash value and face value remaining in the policy. There are several types of cash value policies.

Whole Life Insurance

Whole life insurance is more expensive than term insurance because it lasts a lifetime. Whole policy premiums are fixed for the rest of your life, as long as you make your payments, and the policy has guaranteed cash value. This means your policy will actually build value that you can borrow against.

Universal Life Insurance

Universal life insurance has flexible life insurance premiums and pays interest to the policy’s cash value. It is different in that its death benefit can fluctuate. The rate of interest that it pays will also fluctuate according to prevailing interest rates. Some universal life insurance policies pay interest that is calculated according to the performance of an underlying financial benchmark, such as the S&P 500 Index.

Variable Universal Life Insurance

Variable universal life insurance invests its cash value in a collection of mutual fund sub-accounts, which invest in stocks, bonds, cash and real estate. The cash value in this type of policy is not guaranteed and will rise and fall with the stock and bond markets. Regardless of the type of cash value insurance you have, you will be able to access the cash value in your policy at any time. You can do this either by direct withdrawal or by taking out a loan against the policy, but the death benefit will be reduced by any outstanding loan amount when the policy pays it out.

Which One to Choose

When it comes to deciding which life insurance policy is best for you, you’ll want to consider the different factors. For instance, what is your disposable income? Do you have debt obligations? What are your financial needs? Be sure to shop around online, as well as in person, so that you get several life insurance quotes from different companies before you purchase any type of coverage. Doing this will give you a better idea of what’s available. Your financial adviser or life insurance agent can also help you find the policy that works the best for you.  Make sure to check out this life and viatical settlement calculator.

Hoo Hoo Who? by Mary Maier + Giveaway

Disclosure: Susie's Reviews receives compensation or products from brands in exchange for the posts on this site Our opinions are honest and our own.

I cannot wait to share with you the first title from a new children’s publisher Building Block Press: Hoo Hoo Who? written and illustrated by Mary Maier with speech pathologist Lauren Horton (February 2019; ISBN: 978-1944201142; Hardcover $17.95; Ages 2-5; 32 pages).   

In this kid-friendly picture book, readers help Owl figure out which guest is at the door.  It’s Mouse’s Surprise Party, but Owl’s glasses are broken so he can’t see!    Children participate in the story by using expressive language to respond to Owl’s WHO questions.  Readers get to yell, “Surprise!” and sing, “Happy Birthday” — what fun!

About the Authors: 

Mary Maier graduated from Miami University, where she met her husband, with a degree in Art Education. She is an avid painter with a huge imagination; an important quality when raising two wild boys. She resides in Louisville, KY.    Mary has previous experience owning a publishing company for 25+ years solely based on books about the card game bridge.
Roughly 1 in 12 children have a speech or language delay, including author Mary Maier’s 3-year-old son Max, who is also on the autistic spectrum. Here’s an excerpt from her blog explaining the importance (and shortage) of books focusing on WH- questions:

“Kids with language delays work on WH- questions A LOT. Many children know their colors, shapes, numbers, letters, but not the difference between who, what and where. These questions are the building blocks of conversations and are HUGELY important to language development. I started thinking, why didn’t I know about this? Why doesn’t every parent know about the importance of WH- questions? Why aren’t WH-question books as prevalent as shape and number books? So I started doing some research. I wanted to find something to help with my son’s language development. All I could find were books with the word AUTISM in bold print on the front cover. No parent wants to read their child an AUTISM bedtime story—so I decided to write and illustrate my own WH- series of books for all kids, beginning with WHO. And WHO better to go on this journey with than a speech pathologist?   My hope is to spread the word to ALL parents (not just to those whose children have language delays), the importance of WH- questions in language development and that they can be focused on in a fun and natural way—just like all those color books.”

Lauren Horton received her Master’s Degree in Speech-Language Pathology from Ball State University in December 2016. Lauren was born in Muncie, Indiana, but now resides in Atlanta, Georgia with her husband. 

Hoo Hoo Who? will be followed by titles focusing on “WHERE” and “WHAT”, and is the first title from Mary Maier’s new publishing company Building Block Press, a publisher of books focusing on early childhood development and thoughtful design.   Hoo Hoo Who? will be available wherever books are sold through distributor National Book Network.

One lucky reader will win a copy of Hoo Hoo Who? by Mary Maier!  The giveaway is open to US/Ca readers ages 18+.  Void where prohibited by law.  Good luck!
