LilyBugs! What a Concept! A Review + Giveaway (closed)


As much as we want our kids to graduate up to holding their own bottle or sippy cup, it can be a trying time....for everyone. Our kids want to be able to do it themselves but sometimes they can't fully grasp it. Because of that, you're constantly on the rebound catching and picking up the bottle or sippy cup. While it's a great exercise routine, it can become insanely annoying. Then, you think you'll solve the sippy cup problem by buying sippy cups with handles. Your solution is only met with disappointment when you realize handled sippy cups are hard to come by. They're a tough find! Believe me! I know! I've looked!

I am so glad I discovered LilyBugs! Talk about a wonderful innovation for bottles and sippy cups! LilyBugs are super cute and fun bottle and sippy cup covers that provide an interactive experience. In addition to providing handles, LilyBugs are both visually and texturally stimulating. These little cuties provide comfort and design to the plain ol' bottle or sippy cup.

Why I love LilyBugs...let me count the ways:

*Provides visual and sensory stimulation for growing hands and minds
*Prevents condensation and leaks
*Provides a great decorative style
*Keeps little hands warm during the cold seasons
*Teaches babies and toddlers how to lift and hold their own bottles and sippy cups
* Easy to use and fits most sippy cups
*Machine Washable

LilyBugs were developed by a mom who experienced the same troubles we have! LilyBugs come in many styles, colors, and include different sound and texture simulations such as crinkles and squeaks. Your child will be so enthralled that the new problem you'll have is getting the sippy cup out of their hands. Hey, that's much better than the up and downs of picking up the sippy cup! But hey, even if they love it to death and then some, LilyBugs are machine washable. No worries about germs!



Oh yes, these are quite a breed. We loved the little SqueekyBug mouse LilyBugs cover we received to review. We used it on my son's sippy cup. The little mouse's ears that doubled as handles squeaked! I was quite surprised! My son loved squeaking the ears and "petting" the little mouse. He'd get a good giggle. Now that the weather is getting cold, it's a lot more pleasant to hold the sippy cup with the mouse in place rather than bare. In addition to being very practical, the LilyBug was very cute! I just wish I knew of these sooner!

As if LilyBugs couldn't get any better. They will soon be transferring to 100% organic. Also, there will be new "BlankieBugs" to coordinate with the LilyBugs covers. They will be organic as well, and developed using multiple types of super soft and sensory stimulating textures and colors just like the bottle and sippy cup covers!

I would highly recommend LilyBugs! These are great learning tools! Hey, they would even make great Christmas gifts especially since they come in Christmas designs!

LilyBugs was sweet enough to offer two LilyBug covers to two of my lucky readers!
