Dapper Snappers Product Review

For the first time, I’ve had to move Little Dude up a size because of his height. Usually it’s his girth that forces us to make the move, but he’s had a growth-spirt and has lost most of his “baby fat” {sobs}. So we’ve been facing a new challenge with his wardrobe: the waist on his pants is too big, not all toddler pants have adjustable elastic and belts on 3-year-olds are not conducive to potty training!

Problem Solved!! I received a sample of the Dapper Snapper thanks to Amanda at A Mom’s Review.

The mom-invented Dapper Snapper is made of elastic and snaps. You slip the Snapper through the back belt loops of your child’s pants then pull to size and snap. Each Snapper is adjustable to 4 sizes. It’s so simple!

Little Dude’s pants fit! And because the Snapper is used on the back of the pants, there is still quick and easy access to buttons and zippers (oh so necessary when potty training!).

The Dapper Snapper is available for boys and girls in a variety of colors. The cost for a single Snapper is $8.95, a 3-pack is $23.96, and a 6-pack is $39.95. There are also “snapcessories” to dress-up your Snapper.

There is a list of retail locations on the website or you can order the Dapper Snapper from Toddler Tech USA.

The Dapper Snapper is convenient and makes dressing Little Dude easy – I don’t know how moms got along without it. The Dapper Snapper gets The Household Helper’s Seal of Approval for saving time (no belts to fuss with), money (kids will fit in the pants they have), and sanity (easier potty training)!!

PediPaw Review + Coupon

I hate clipping my dogs’ nails! It’s very traumatic for them – and for me! So a few months ago while battling a case of insomnia, I caught a commercial for PediPaws pet nail trimmer. It’s basically a powered nail file for pets, just like the salon uses on acrylic nails! It looked super easy to use, and easy on the pets. So I ordered it. I’m willing to try anything that will make the arduous task of clipping nails easier!

Truth is – it works well. My one dog Mabelline doesn’t mind it at all. But my other dog Molly, who BTW is totally skittish and neurotic in the first place, doesn’t like it so it’s still torture for her. It has this plastic guide that you put the nail into and the file literally does the rest.

Overall, I recommend it to all pet parents that hate clipping nails. You could always bring your pet to the vet to get this done, or a pet ‘beauty parlor’, but it’s not so convenient. I got the PediPaws pet nail trimmer for the convenience. You can give it a try – and use this link for a special offer: Get the PediPaws Pet Nail Trimmer for only $19.99 + s/h!

PS: Maybe whenever my digital camera situation gets fixed, I’ll post a picture of Miss Mabelline getting her pedicure!
