ENERGIZER FIRST ALERT SMOKE ALARM REVIEW & GIVEAWAY (*CLOSED*)

Setting the clock and replacing the batteries in smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors is quick and easy. In addition to encouraging others to do so, also consider using the extra hour you gain from daylight-saving time to create some positive changes in your community.

One positive change residents are encouraged to make is to use the extra hour "gained" to remind their friends, family and neighbors of the life-saving habit of changing and testing smoke alarm batteries. The simple reminder is one of the easiest, most-effective ways to reduce tragic home fire deaths and injuries.

Secondly, you can spread your extra hour spreading good in your neighborhood. More than 80 percent of local fire departments are staffed by volunteers. Energizer and the IAFC are encouraging people to use their extra hour volunteering to make a change in their community.

"It's about taking small steps together to make a big difference, from reminding each other to get in the habit of the Change Your Clock Change Your Battery program to using our extra hours to make a difference in the community.

Encourage everyone to adopt the life-saving Change Your Clock Change Your Battery habit of changing and testing smoke alarm batteries with each fall time change. This is so important because having a working smoke alarm can cut the risk of dying in reported home structure fires in half as they can often provide critical extra seconds needed to get out of your home safely. And even though 96% of American homes have smoke alarms, many do not have one that works because of missing or worn-out batteries.

Each year, Energizer donates 20,000 batteries to help local fire departments nationwide. This year everyone has the chance to help double the donations, up to 400,000 batteries. Participation is easy. Visit the CYCCYB tab on the Energizer Bunny Facebook page, www.facebook.com/energizerbunny, and pledge to change your smoke alarm batteries, share the life-saving Change Your Clock Change Your Battery message with others and create your family's home escape plan so you have an exit plan in place. Each action will trigger a donation of batteries.

Energizer is offering one Mother of 1 Princess and 2 Princes reader to win a First Alert Smoke Alarm, along with a 2-pack of 9volt Energizer Max Batteries.

MANDATORY: (To Enter FIRST YOU MUST BE A FOLLOWER OF MY BLOG) Visit Energizer and tell me when was the last time you changed your batteries in your smoke alarm.

THE PESKY PEANUT BOOK PRODUCT REVIEW

Katie Corl's highly illustrative picture book for children carries a big message about food allergies. It teaches an important lesson about allergies by telling the story of Kelly and the pesky peanut.


This small picture book for children carries a big message about food allergies. This charming little picture book is the answer. It teaches an important lesson about food allergies by telling the story of Kelly and the peasky peanut. Kelly's family discovered he was allergic to peanuts at his first birthday party, when his birthday cake caused in allergic reaction requiring a visit from the paramedics. From that moment on, Kelly's parents were careful to make sure Kelly never came into contact with peanuts in any form. This illustrated story is an effective tool to help fill that gap, and make sure children understand food allergies. While dealing specifically with the peanut, the story is applicable to any allergy. It takes a mysterious, scary subject and makes it easy to understand.

I cannot say enough about this book! In this book, Kelly and his family show that his peanut allergy can be a positive step toward teaching other children and adults about the seriousness of a food allergy in a fun way. I absolutely adore this book. If your child suffers from peanut allergies, or you know a child that does this is a must read.

A wonderful, heart-felt and true story that informs, entertains and touches the heart. A great read to explain peanut allergies to your children.

Katie has written a wonderful book which is both entertaining and educational. I had the honor to review this book and I would recommend it to everyone. I will keep this in my family for many years to come. :)

Visit Amazon to purchase this wonderful and delightful book for children with food allergies.
