SmartyPants Review and Giveaway

Recently I was sent a bottle of SMARTYPANTS children's vitamins to try out with my children from EcoMom. EcoMom is a great online store that carries Eco-Friendly products for Mom and Baby to products for a healthy home.
Not only did they provide me with a product to review they are also offering my readers a 15% discount on their order by using this discount code SBBL595. This code is valid until October 31, 2010. So you have a month to look through the store and decide what to buy!
 EcoMom has now developed a new program called EcoPass too. This program has a $99 annual fee that will get you free shipping on all orders big or small as well as an additional 15% off every order big or small! The program could be paid for in as little as 4 orders.

So now I am sure you are wondering, "But, what about the vitamins?" Well, I can tell you that my children love them! The 3 children that are old enough to take these vitamins love them. They like them so much that I can sneakily bypass the treat after dinner by giving them the vitamins after they finish their supper. Now I don't tell them they are their treat, they simple just don't ask for one. (Sneaky mom trick #89) I do like that the Omega 3's are included so they don't have to take another supplement to get the "big 3's."

I think they say it best though. Here are a few excerpts from the EcoMom website.

"Made in California, SmartyPants use only the best ingredients, are GMP-certified & FDA-compliant, and tested for purity by an independent lab.
SmartyPants gives their multi-vitamin to their own kids as a testament to how safe and awesome they really are!
SmartyPants Gummies only have 5g of Organic cane sugar per serving (that is 80% LESS sugar than in a glass of unsweetened apple juice). SmartyPants are made with only natural colors and flavors and no High Fructose Corn Syrup. They are also gluten- and casein-free. They never use any fake or artificial flavors, sweeteners, or dyes that are bad for your kids! Their Omega 3 DHA and EPA fish oil comes from eco-friendly sustainable small fish sources. No unsustainable tuna or contaminated fish!"





The only thing that I didn't really like is that they contain sugar. Over all I was pretty impressed with SMARTYPANTS Vitamins.

Now for what everyone is really waiting for, right? The giveaway!
The giveaway is open to US and Candian resident only.
