2014 Holiday Gift Guide: Kidorable Fairy Rain Coat Review and a Reader Giveaway of a Kidorable Umbrella! - CLOSED!

***This is a sponsored post.  I received the product(s) mentioned in exchange for this review.  All opinions are 100% my own!

I have been blogging for four years now and one company that I always LOVE doing reviews for is Kidorable!  We have received their adorable rain gear in the past and I have always been delighted by how truly adorable and functional their products are!  My son received their frog rain gear when he was little and he had so much fun wearing it and splashing in the puddles!

This time I was able to receive their Fairy Rain coat for my daughter Ava.  She will be receiving this for Christmas.  It is so stinkin' cute!  I just love all of the details on this coat.  She can really imagine that she's a fairy while she wears it.  I love how the big pot that the fairy is sprinkling dust into is really a pocket!  The lining of the coat is soft and will keep her warm on those chilly rainy days this spring.  I can't wait to see how cute it looks on her or the look on her face on Christmas morning when she opens this up!

If you are looking for another gift for your little ones, I highly recommend Kidorable products!  They have the cutest items for kids.  Besides rain gear you can shop for hooded towels, gloves, scarves, backpacks and more!  Your little one will look adorable with a complete set of winter gear: hat, scarf and gloves!  Check out this little guy in his dragon/knight gear!  Not only is he warm but he's really cute and can imagine that he's a knight fighting off a fire-breathing dragon!  I love how Kidorable's products really ignite the imaginations of kids!

Right now Kidorable has a fun Holiday Gift Buying Quiz on their site that helps direct us to make a good choice when considering a gift.  The best gifts are the ones that help our kids to use their imaginations.  Kidorable products are so cute and durable and will always be at the top of my kids' wishlists!  I have gotten so many compliments every time my kids wore their Kidorable rain gear.  Bella and Sam have sadly outgrown their rain coats and rain boots but every excuse they had to wear them, they would!  I'm looking forward to those memories with my Ava and might have to purchase another rain coat and boots for Sam who is 6 now!

Kidorable Review and Giveaway! - CLOSED!

**This is a sponsored post.  I was given the product(s) mentioned in exchange for this review.

I have always been a fan of the truly adorable rain gear from Kidorable!  Both Bella and Sam have their own Kidorable rain ensembles and we get so many compliments on how cute they look in them!  Sam has the Frog rain coat, rain boots and umbrella and Bella has the Lotus Flower rain coat, rain boots and umbrella.  Well, I knew Ava was going to feel left out so my friends at Kidorable sent her a Dora the Explorer rain coat.  It is so adorable!  I love how it has a butterfly on the hood.  I know that since it came from Kidorable, that it will last!  Bella and Sam have worn their Kidorable rain gear countless times and it still looks brand new!  My nieces and nephews will be able to wear them long after my children have outgrown their boots and rain coats.  Next on the list is to get Ava the matching rain boots and umbrella.  She will look so stinkin' cute the next time it rains!

At Kidorable, you can find more than just rain gear for your kids.  They now offer backpacks, bookends, hanger sets, knit gloves, hats and scarves as well as hooded bath or beach towels.  I just love the fairy towel pictured below!  That will be added to Ava's birthday wish list as well!

Speaking of birthdays, did you know that Kidorable has a Birthday Club?!  It's simple to sign up and thirty days before your child's birthday, Kidorable will send a free gift along with a special offer only available to Kidorable Birthday Club members!  I signed up all three of my kids!  I wonder what the free gift will be....

Kidorable has so many cute product lines to choose from!  Whether your child likes mermaids, pirates, fairies, or even SpongeBob SquarePants, Kidorable has something for them!  I love how Sam imagines to be a froggy when he wears his frog rain boots and rain coat.  Bella pretends she's a princess in her lotus flower ensemble.  The details on the gear from Kidorable are truly adorable.  You will be very pleased with each item you purchase from Kidorable.

BUY IT:

You can purchase all of the adorable backpacks, rain coats, rain boots and umbrellas that Kidorable has to offer right here!  You can save 20% on any rain boots purchase with the code SAVING66! Hurry because this code expires on August 31st!

One Year Blogversary Event: Kidorable Review and Giveaway! - CLOSED!

September sure was a rainy month for us! The kids love to go out in their rain gear and splash in the puddles! They both have some adorable rain boots, rain coats, and umbrellas from Kidorable! I was fortunate enough to receive the froggy set for Sam back in December and now Bella has received the Polka Dots set! They both look adorable in their rain gear! They love wearing it on rainy days! I think that actually look forward to rainy days now!

You can find so many cute items at Kidorable! They carry a large selection of umbrellas, backpacks, rain coats, rain boots, knit hats, knit scarves, towels, etc. You will find some adorable stuff as well! I love that both of my kids have matching sets! Kidorable makes being a kid even more fun! Their products are very durable! Like I said, Sam has had his frog set since December and you can hardly tell it's been worn!
The Kidorable Story:

In 1997, Kidorable sprung from the minds, hearts and efficiency apartment of Liping and Jonathan Domsky. They proclaimed, "The world needs someone to create children's apparel and accessories that are both functional and fun. We can do that."

And so Kidorable was conceived. Starting with lions and cats and bears, oh my, manifested as umbrellas and hangers, Kidorable generated enough sales during its first year to break even and plant fruitful Kidorable seeds throughout the land. The following year sales grew ten fold. Every year since, give or take, a new style and/or product line debuted. And every year, the world joyfully embraced more Kidorable delights, give or take, than the year before.

Children, it turns out, absolutely and unconditionally love Kidorable (almost as much as their parents and other children-loving grown-ups do.)

In its first three years, Kidorable grew from a hopeful startup to a thriving business with $2 million in sales. Ever since, Kidorable has continued to blossom, evolving into a flourishing global enterprise, contributing to the success of dozens of sales professionals and thousands of retailers, with sales projected to exceed $15 million by 2015.

Throughout its first decade, the key to Kidorable's success has been growth. But not growth simply in the financial sense. For the ultimate Kidorable customers - kids - it's all about growing imaginations. For Kidorable's employees, it's all about nurturing personal and professional growth. And for everyone touched by Kidorable, it's about growing smiles. For Kidorable, growing larger is a natural and happy consequence of growing better, individual by individual.

Today Kidorable is a striking presence, not just in stores, but across the vast landscape of the children's apparel and accessories industry. By encouraging personal and professional growth in the service of imagination and smiles, Kidorable's own growth projections continue to soar.

Kidorable Review and Giveaway! - CLOSED

Kids love to play in the rain and go puddle jumping! It is important to provide them with the right gear for their rainy day outdoor activities. Kidorable has some simply adorable umbrellas, rain coats, rain boots, backpacks and other cute accessories available on their website! My son was very delighted to receive his frog rain coat, umbrella and rain boots! He just can't wait for a rainy day to wear them! Actually he has been sporting his rain boots around the house quite frequently!

Kidorable also sells some precious baby items! They have "My First Rain Boots", "My First Rain Coats", and also sunhats and towels for baby! Wouldn't these make precious baby shower gifts!!!? All I can say is that this company sells some ADORABLE stuff!!! I think my son just looks so darn cute in his froggy rain gear!
