Review - Crayola Bathtub Fingerpaint Soap

In this post I will be reviewing Bathtub Fingerpaint Soap by Crayola. My son Nathaniel and I found purchased two tubes of Bathtub Fingerpaint Soap from Target. It can be purchased for the very affordable price of one dollar per tube.

We all know that the only proper way to use fingerpaint is to just get your fingers dirty... and everything else in the process. Followed by the inevitable bath for your childand just your child, if you're lucky. I want to just say that Crayola is genius! Crayola took all fun, mess and cleaning involved in fingerpainting and contained it to the bathtub. Bravo Crayola!
 .
I found Crayola Bathtub Fingerpaint Soap to have the same consistency as most other fingerpaints available on the market. The boys definitely enjoyed painting with them onto themselves and anything else within reach.
 
Now I realize that Crayola Bathtub Fingerpaint Soap would be easy to clean up immediately, so I didn't. I waited more than forty-five minutes to clean up the bath and surrounding areas. I found cleaning Crayola Bathtub Fingerpaint Soap be extremely easy. I did find it to harder to clean out of our grout which is unsealed. Crayola does warn that this product may stain porous unsealed surfaces such as grout. I found that applying a small amount of effort and a brush proved enough to solve this problem.
Conclusion
Crayola Bathtub Fingerpaint Soap created a fun filled bath with little to no mess. Cleanup was simple. This was extremely affordable and can be found at your local Target.

LIFEPROOF frē for iPhone 5

On October 7th 2013 Verizon broke the news to me that for the first time since I had owned my first iPhone(3G) I would not be able to upgrade to Apple's latest iPhone until November 2014. That news devasted me, but that's another story. That's when I realized that although I was meticulous with my mobile devises, I could not say the same for my youngest son Mark2. I needed my iPhone to make to survive for another year. I've never had an iPhone for more than one year so this made extremely nervous. As astray at home dad I also couldn't insure that Mark2 would let my current phone survive until my next upgrade. I'm not the kind of person who likes to cover his phone in big bulky cases because I like the way my phone looks. I needed to find a solution; I needed to find a case that would literally survive my life(kids). That's when I came across the frē by LIFEPROOF. 

The frē by LIFEPROOF comes with 1 microfiber cleaning cloth, 1 weatherproof headphone adapter, 2 headphone jack covers, 1 jack cover keeper, as well as the case itself. Unlike other cases which installation men's just slap it on, this is not with the frē. LIFEPROOF requires that you submerge the sealed case in water and weigh it down with a cup for one hour and inspect the the frē for leaks before you place for phone in the case. My wife and I found this this part of the installation cool considering that we thought about about doing our own water test. The case passed inspection and had it not, LIFEPROOF provides a website to visit in order to receive a replacement. They also offer 1year of of a total water protection program if your device receives any water damage.

Hour long water submersion test-passed... On to our own tests

LIFEPROOF advertises that the frē is submersible for 6.6ft and it's also protected from dirt + dust and snow + ice. It also advertises that the frē will survive drops from up to 6.6ft. The current climate doesn't allow for a snow + ice so we recruited my son Mark2 to devise his own testing for the frē. The frē proved that it was waterproof by LIFEPROOF's required test but would it survive Mark2's test? Mark2 is teething and and has used the frē as a teething tool. He has chewed and drooled on the frē for almost an entire month now; it has survived. He has tossed and thrown the frē and it has survived. He's flung it into dry dusty dirt and it has survived. Mark2 has provided some rigorous testing on the frē but I thought I could help as well. I must admit that I have tossed my phone into the tub (accidentally, yeah right) during bathtime throughout Mark2's testing of the frē. The frē by LIFEPROOF has proven that it is truly lifeproof and also kidproof. So for all you parents, I would like to inform you that LIFEPROOF is also KIDPROOF!
