Win a Graco Blossum 4-in-1 High Chair $280 [#Giveaway] CAN, 8/31

Kids grow out of things so quickly.

Often before you've had a chance to remove the tags.

It can get even more expensive when you have to buy two of everything.

Graco understands this and that's why they've designed a 4-in-1 seating system that can be used throughout the years and is easily adjustable to accommodate more than one child at a time.

Graco Grows with Your Children.

The Kids outgrew their high chairs over a year ago and we haven't yet purchased anything to replace them.

We need to.

The problem is that the chairs are too low for the table and the kids are constantly jumping off, falling over and tipping them over.

The Graco® Blossom™ 4-in-1 Seating System is designed to adjust to your growing child's seating needs and to accommodate more than one child in your growing family. It transforms seamlessly from an extremely functional highchair to an infant feeding booster, a toddler booster, and finally a youth chair.

Should your family suddenly grow, it can even accommodate a baby and a toddler at the table all at once. The 6-position height adjustment assures a front row seat for baby at any family table. And the 3-position removable footrest and 3-position one-hand reclining seat will ensure your growing child stays comfortable at mealtime.

It was interesting to find out that Graco has been a name that parents can trust for over two decades.

A few key features are;

• Seat two children simultaneously,
• 6 height and 3 recline positions,
• One hand removable tray with dishwasher-safe pull-out insert,
• Removable seat back is positionable,
• Machine-washable seat pad makes clean up easy,
• Infant head and body support,
• Locking front and rear casters,
• Convertible 3 & 5-point harness keeps baby secured.

Help Food Banks this Summer by Donating Kid Friendly Foods from Walmart #cbias

Since the beginning, it's been my blogging mission to share stories of inspirational people, interesting products and worthy causes.

We have always stressed to The Kids the importance of acceptance, compassion and empathy through charity.

When I found out that I had the opportunity to purchase $40 in foodstuffs from Walmart and donate them to our local food bank "House of Lazarus" I was very proud.
