New & Improved My Tot Clock Review and Giveaway 12/14/2014 3:00 pm EST ending 12/18/2014 3:00 pm EST

New & Improved My Tot Clock Price $59.95
I recently had the opportunity to review a wonderful product for children.It is a New and Improved version of the original My Tot Clock introduced a few years back.The New & Improved My Tot Clock has included a new digital clock display along with the analog clock display,the old version had.
Picture
My Tot Clock is an innovative mom-invented product intended to help little ones sleep better at night and, as a result, their parents or caretakers, too! This creative clock was invented by Pamela Gonzalez. After the birth of their new baby, Pamela’s firstborn son, Gabriel, had difficulties  transitioning to a big boy and letting his new baby brother take over his beloved crib.The Tot Clock is a sleep clock, alarm clock, nightlight, time out timer, and activity timer all in one.It also plays bedtime stories,lullabies,has fun wake-up music,and even white noise.My Tot Clock comes with the "It's Night Night Time" Tot Clock Treasure, the "Night Sky" Faceplate, and AC Power Adapter. Measures 7" x 5.5" x 2". Additional Tot Clock Treasures and Faceplates sold separately. Guaranteed better sleep or your money back!.Makes a great night light with 5 levels of illumination and has changeable faceplates to match your child’s interests or bedroom theme.

I love  the New & Improved My Tot Clock and that it changes colors to teach little ones when it's time to sleep (blue light) and when it's okay to wake (yellow light) and many more colors.Below is a description of what the different colors are:

Picture
Picture
Picture
The blue light means nighty-night!  Not only will your child enjoy their new built-in nightlight, but they will absolutely love the extra bedtime stories and lullabies that play off little cartridges called Tot Clock Treasures.  As a little treat, let your child pick out their favorite Treasure and plug it in themselves!  They will enjoy their new bedtime routine, and you will love how quickly this magic clock eliminates the most typical toddler sleep problems, like negotiating before bed, waking in the middle of the night (or too early in the morning), or sneaking into mommy’s bed. With My Tot Clock, the whole family will sleep better!
The Cyan light means Nap time!  Not only will your child enjoy their new built-in nightlight, but they will absolutely love the extra bedtime stories and lullabies that play off little cartridges called Tot Clock Treasures.  As a little treat, let your child pick out their favorite Treasure and plug it in themselves!  They will enjoy their new nap time routine, and you will love how quickly this magic clock eliminates the most typical toddler sleep problems, like negotiating before taking a nap, waking in the middle of the nap. With My Tot Clock, the whole family will sleep better!
Picture
Picture
Picture
The yellow light means good morning sunshine!  When My Tot Clock turns yellow and plays an optional fun wake song, your child can get out of bed and start their happy day.  They will be so proud...and fully rested!
Picture
The red light is for discipline when a little timeout is needed.  Simply set the timeout duration and click the red button to activate.  The timeout duration should be age-appropriate.  The rule of thumb in Mommy Circles is one minute per year.  For example, a 2-year old should receive a 2-minute timeout, 3 minutes for a 3-year old, etc.  My Tot Clock will automatically beep and turn to yellow when time is up!
Picture
Picture
Picture
The green light means do something good!  It's great for any positive timed activity like getting a child to sit on the potty for 2 minutes, brush their teeth for 2 minutes, share a toy for 5 minutes at a time, or be patient while mommy is on the phone.  Simply set the encourage duration and click the green button to activate.  My Tot Clock will automatically beep and turn to yellow when time is up!
Picture
Picture
Picture
Changeable Faceplates make My Tot Clock even more fun for tiny tots! Match My Tot Clock to your child's interests or bedroom theme! Ships with the Moon & Stars faceplate. Other fun faceplate designs sold separately, including Princess, Dora the Explorer, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and Dinosaur Train!

About David Osborne- Pianist to the Presidents

Picture
David Osborne: Furthering the Tradition of Romantic Piano

Known as the “Pianist to the Presidents”, Osborne’s credentials are many.  The list of  White House performances include Reagan, Bush and Clinton administrations. David has performed numerous times for President and Mrs. George W. Bush in the White House.  Osborne is a regular performer for Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter in Plains, Georgia.  He created and organized President Carter’s 75th birthday tribute in 1999.  Jimmy Carter has said that “David is one of the finest pianist in the United States.” And President Bush said “That boy can play!” at the White House in 2003.

Osborne performs currently at his new home the Bellagio Hotel and Casino on the Las Vegas Strip.  He was a fixture at Caesars Palace for 12 years.  He is featured at the Petrossian Bar and The Baccarat Bar at the Bellagio. His music includes romantic, classical, jazz, pop, inspirational, patriotic and Broadway show tunes.  Osborne’s music encompasses 22 cd’s currently on sale through the Northstar Music label available at gift stores and Borders Books. His record sales near five million. His latest recording is available at Hallmark Gold Crown Stores, “Simply Romantic”.

Born and raised in Miami, Oklahoma, he received his undergraduate degree from Oral Roberts University.  At Indiana University, Bloomington, Indiana he studied classical pipe organ and piano performance, with a minor in French.  At Pittsburg State University in Pittsburg, Kansas he completed a master’s degree in keyboard performance and music composition.

A few of Osborne’s more significant recent events include a concert for the American Breast Cancer Awareness Foundation, an interview and performance on TV’s “The 700 Club”, a concert for the Steinway and Sons International convention of worldwide dealers at the Beverly Hills Hotel, a benefit concert at the Eastman School of Music in Rochester, N.Y., two concerts for Mr. and Mrs. Don Hall, CEO of Hallmark Cards in Kansas City and a performance in Las Vegas, playing the Steinway pianos of Vladimir Horowitz, Van Cliburn and George Gershwin at Southern Nevada Music as a part of Steinway and Sons Legendary Instruments of the Immortals Tour.

I have long been a fan of Jim Caviezel for a very long time.He is one of my favorite actors.I loved his portrayal as our Lord and Savior, Jesus, in one of my favorite movies The Passion of the Christ and my other favorite movie of all time that he starred in is The Count of Monte Cristo.I have watched him for years in Person of Interest one of my favorite television shows.I was very excited to find out he was going to be in this inspiring real life story of When the Game Stands Tall.
When the Game Stands Tall is a powerful true story about love, loss, friendship, and perseverance.There is passionate acting,high quality,high production value, and a dedicated vision to impact our world for Christ.

“When the Game Stands Tall” can be described with one word: Inspiring! -- The Dove Foundation. This film received the Dove faith friendly seal for ages 12 and up.


The storyline of this film is based on real events regarding the dominant Catholic High School football program's response to adversity.It follows the coaches and football teams life, their values, their accomplishments, their relationships, and their heart. This film shows you how they lived their faith out.The Coach's Christian faith plays a role in how he reacts and deals with difficult situations,including the senseless violent death of a star player,the head coach's heart attack, and losing a football game after going undefeated for 151 straight games over 12 seasons from 1992 to 2004.They had broke just about every conceivable sports record in the process.The players and their renowned football coach Bob Ladouceur (played by Jim Caviezel) are forced to learn things the hard way in the game of football and also in the game of life.The movie includes very strong life lessons that we all can learn from.

I know my family are very big Sports Fans and I know they would enjoy this movie very much.If you are or know anyone that is a big Sports fan then you will definitely enjoy this film.From the action on the football field.The football footage is excellent,the acting is wonderful,One of the most inspiring Sports Films made and you will also be inspired by the story.The movie makes a great Christmas Gift for any sports fans or player on your Christmas list.I love it because it has a great message to it.This is a great family friendly drama to watch with the whole family and you will be entertained.
