We were blessed to receive Ophelie and her Chicks from Lilliputiens of Belgium for review.  HABA, a German toy manufacturer, also distributes some wonderful European brands of toys in the U.S., and they just added Lilliputiens to their exclusive line here.  My almost two year old loves his new toy.  Actually, I have seen his older brothers playing with it too.  

Ophelie and her chicks have been entertaining my little guy with finger puppet fun, hide the chicks in the egg, hide the egg in Ophelie, throw the egg like a ball, and many more creative games.  The chicks all make different sounds which adds to the fun.  One of them makes the cutest little chick sound.  Ophelie has become a favorite toy and one that we will enjoy for a long time.  

This Lilliputien toy is well made.  In fact, one our chicks took a leap through an open window and had an unfortunate landing in a mud puddle.  She came out squeaky clean and all in one piece after a bath in the washing machine.  Her squeaker still worked too.  

Daddy even got in on the fun.  Ophelie is also a hand puppet and her chicks are little finger puppets.  

You can see my son playing with Ophelie and her chicks in the video above.

Kidorable has a line of soft. thick, 100% cotton hooded towels that are possibly the softest and cutest towels around.  I received the space hero towel for review and l love it.  

It comes packaged ready to gift.  Wouldn't this make a great birthday present?

Such a cute design and there are so many from which to choose. 

One of my favorite features is this handy hanging flap in the corner of the towel.  

I also love the snap.  This is especially nice for the younger kids who have trouble holding a towel around themselves after a bath or swimming.  

The designs are so cute and well made.  The space saucer and rocket are made out of soft fleece and stitched in place.  I love the bright playful colors.

Our new Kidorable hooded towel has become a fast favorite for snuggly warmth after bath-time and it will be well loved this summer on pool outings too.  

My readers can get 20% off their entire order when they purchase impossibly cute and soft cotton hooded towels.  Just use code STAYDRY22 at checkout on www.kidorable.com through May 31st.

I have been trying to stay on top of this challenge to reduce clutter by getting rid of 7 things each day except on weekends - gotta take a break sometime.  Last week I took an old changing table that had been in the garage for over a year to the Salvation Army.  I also found things to get rid of each day and then took most of it to Goodwill.  Some of it just needed to be recycled or thrown away.  

I am participating in Money Saving Mom's Clutter-busting Challenge.  You can link up your posts at Money Saving Mom or comment here.  I would love to hear about your clutter-busting accomplishments.  

Here are some pictures of things I got rid of last week.  

I found a few things in the kitchen to get rid of.  I need to find more, the kitchen is way too cluttered.  

An old worn out puzzle, a shirt that is too tight and unless I got awesome abs, I would never wear again, some baby stuff that we didn't even use when we had an infant

Two printed bib pieces that I will never use to make bibs, some old clothes, and a train car that does not go to any of our train tracks

Some old magazines, two empty bottles that were in my medicine cabinet, a few toys and books

We've been so busy and eating really simple meals.  Also grilling a lot since it is finally warm.  What about you?  What is on your menu plan?  

Monday:  Dinner at friends 
Tuesday:  Grilled brats and hot dogs, Hot German potato salad, spinach with garlic chips, lemon cake
Wednesday:  Shrimp Risotto, Tomato Caprese Salad
Thursday:  Lazy Cabbage roll casserole, buttered green beans
Friday:  Chicken tenders, french fries, butter beans
Saturday:  takeout pizza
Sunday:  Tomato soup, grilled cheese
