We all have those men in our lives that we never know what to get them. Remington has three new products this holiday season that would make great gifts for any men in the family – from teenage boys to grandpa. These gifts start off at $19.99, so they are not only affordable, they also make great stocking stuffers too! Bill, my wonderful husband, has been trying out some these new Remington products for me over the last couple of weeks.
The PG-350 is a 7-in-1 personal groomer. It has everything the men in your life could want. It has 10 adjustable settings for clipping sideburns, necks and a variety of hair lengths, as well as five adjustable settings for all styles of facial hair — goatees, soul patches, light two-day stubble, moustaches or beards of any length. It also comes with ear and a nose hair trimmer for that hair we prefer not to know about. It is rechargeable.
Best of all is the price: $19.99. We liked it here because it is a really good groomer set. It looks very high quality and works ten times better than the set he had before (which was nowhere near as big and costed me a lot more). He found it super easy to trim his goatee, and he highly recommends it.
Another cool product Remington has this season is the ShortCut Clipper. This is the first ever clipper system that lets guys cut their own hair without having to worry about missing spots on the back of their heads or even messing up their hair. It is actually pretty cool, because you use it like you do a comb, and you are able to adjust it to five different lengths. (I had to giggle when I saw the balding comb attachment, but people do need that). Cleaning this is such a breeze too. You just rinse them off! The cost for this is $29.99.
Lastly, there is the Flex360 electric shaver. This has be my most favorite shaver out there. Bill has tried out several electric shavers in the past and none ever give him a close enough shave in my opinion. By five o’clock, he would have a noticeable five o’clock shadow. In his line of work, that really isn’t all too acceptable. However, with this razor, he does not have that problem! It also has a pop-up trimmer for precision grooming. The Flex360 also has worldwide voltage so men can easily use it wherever they travel. We do a lot of traveling, and I have to admit, that this shaver makes me feel safer. I always had to worry that the kids would get their hands on his razor and cut themselves. With the kids now, I don’t have to worry about this. There are four models that range in price from $34.99 to $74.99, so you can get the one that best serves your needs.
We have owned Remington in the past, and it is a good high quality brand. Any man in your life would be happy to open up one of these Christmas morning!

With the economy the way it is, one of the many things parents have had to cut from their children’s lives is music training. With all the shows on TV now like American Idol, Nashville Star, and America’s Got Talent, you can understand why kids want to improve their voice. Your kids may not even be reaching that high — they may just want to get a part in the choir or play. Private lessons have always been pretty costly, and depending on where you live, may or may not even be available.
Ariella Vaccarino has changed all of that. Ariella is an opera singer and an experienced teacher based out of Los Angeles. She is also the creator of Voice Lessons To Go. Voice Lessons To Go is a 4 volume CD box set. You can buy them as either a set or singly. Volume 1 is called Vocalize and Breath. It shows you singing warmups and breathing excercises. Volume 2 is Do Re Mi Ear and Pitch Training. It filled with vocal excercises. It will improve your sense of pitch by concentrating on scales and chords. Volume 3 is Pure Vowels. It is compiled of vocalizes seperated by ah, ey, ee, oh, oo, and i. Volume 4 is Stamina. This is a group of vocal exercises to challenge and strengthen your abilities. She also offers on her site the ability to submit your voice and receive a vocal assessment. For $9.99, you can submit one minute. If you spend $39.99, you are able to send 3 songs! She will give you her full assessment and recommend song choices and exercises. She’ll also get back to you within one week with that!
With the range of products and pricing, there is definitely something for everyone. This makes a great stocking stuffer or Christmas gift for the aspiring singer in your life. Since I think this is such a great product, I had a set of these sent to me to give away to one of my lucky winners! The winner of this giveaway will receive all four CDs! Here’s what you need to do:

I never thought Braincandy would infiltrate my household like it has. My 4 year old and my 1 year old are absolutely in love with the Hear My World DVD from Braincandy. My daughter (the 4 year old) has begged me to buy the rest of the series. That is how much she enjoys this movie.
Now this DVD does not go by Hear My World in this house. Instead, it is referred to as the ear movie (can you figure out why?). The movie is all about the sounds you hear. There is a lot of singing and they have short little skits. My kids love it. The skits are just long enough to hold their attention. Every time the singing starts, Will (my 1 year old) starts dancing. It is both cute and funny at the same time.
The great part of these movies is that they are both learning and not realizing it. Braincandy has won 35 awards and industry endorsements, so they must be doing something right! I know that Madison goes around singing their theme song “Braincandy” that plays at the beginning of the video. I know Santa will be bringing some of these videos come Christmas time at my house. If you need an awesome present, definitely look into getting some of these DVDs.
