As most of you know, at the end of September we traveled all the way to Louisville, KY, USA from Canada to attend the ABC (All baby and child) kid expo. It was an exciting event and was an amazing opportunity to see some of the coolest baby/kid products, both new and established businesses alike. We were also blessed with the opportunity to meet some of the wonderful people behind the businesses we've already worked with like Skye, Amy, and Sandy from Baby Half Off and Meredith from The I Like Book.
Since we began our business in December of 2010, Cat and I have been overwhelmed with the positive reaction we've received from the vendors we've worked with, and we continue to be amazed by their support and commitment to the entirety of what our business has become. As we always explain to our potential participants, without the success of the businesses we've worked with we would not be where we are today.
I would like to introduce you to some new companies who signed up at the ABC show. Some of these products have already made their way into a bundle, and some are coming in the very near future! The following companies appear in no particular order.
1. Super Undies- Looking for potty training pants that actually help improve the time it takes to potty train? Look no further! Super Undies™ potty training pants are the perfect thing to get your hero excited about potty training! Pants that give your child the powerful feeling of being a big kid!

Colorful materials, durable construction, and relatable super heroes all merge together in a product that will allow your hero to feel like they are a part of something bigger - and responsible for their own potty time. They will have the power to use the toilet more effectively, and the confidence to continue the difficult task. Super undies will appear in a special Toddler/cloth bundle toward the end of the year.

5. Eco-Nuts- Eco Nuts™are completely sustainable dried fruit shells that come from the Sapindus mukorossi tree (also called the Soap Berry or Soap Nut Tree) in Nepal, India and Indonesia. The berries we harvest come from high up in the Himalayas and are the highest quality “soap nut” on the market. These fruit shells have been used in India and China for centuries, and are now gaining popularity in America and Europe as a renewable, biodegradable and organic alternative to chemical detergents and expensive “green” laundry soaps.
Eco Nuts™ contain saponin, a natural cleaner that works as a surfactant, breaking the surface tension of the water to penetrate the fibers of your clothing, lifting stains from the fabric and leaving dirt suspended in the water that is rinsed away.
Eco Nuts™ are gentle on both clothes and skin, making them ideal for those with sensitive skin, eczema, allergies and psoriasis. Because they are so mild, they are perfect for baby clothes and cloth diapers. All-Natural Eco Nuts™ are also great for septic and grey water systems. But don’t expect these shells to foam up like commercial soaps, which have artificial foaming agents. Foam simply does not represent cleaning power.
Eco Nuts™ are wild-harvested, meaning they are gathered from wild trees grown without any kind of chemicals, fertilizers, or pesticides. The saponin actually tastes bad to insects so no pesticides are needed, and the trees naturally love poor uncultivated soil. They are organically grown by mother earth and certified USDA Organic by EcoCert at the source. Eco Nuts lip balm was featured in a recent Mama Bundle and we have had Eco Nuts sample packages in two past bundles.
