Freebies from the Crib: Bundle Your Baby
Due to a technical problem, the deadline for this giveaway has been extended to Saturday at midnight!
This week's freebie comes from another Kelly. This Kelly is the owner of Bundle Your Baby, a company whose purpose is to "protect your bundle of joy".
It all started when Kelly's second baby was born in the middle of a very, very cold, Colorado winter. She immediately thought there must be a better way to protect her baby from the wind and snow than a flimsy blanket draped over the car seat. Her search turned up either products that very ugly or ones that were not practical with the features she needed.
Kelly then worked with her mom to design the perfect over the top car seat cover which would combine function and fashion. Their design, which comes in a wide variety of fun prints, not only protects the baby from the elements but also germy little hands (I could have used this a couple weeks ago when baby brother came home from the hospital and immediately caught a cold from his big sisters).Another big plus of a Bundle Your Baby car seat cover is added safety. The National Highway Safety Administration suggests bulky and heavy clothing not be on the babies while being strapped into their car seats. It prevents the harness straps from being snug on babies shoulders. The Bundle Your Baby car seat covers are perfect because they go OVER the top of the seat, there is no fabric under the baby or between the straps.
At Bundle Your Baby you can also find nursing covers and shopping cart covers also in wide variety of prints. And did you know that research has shown that shopping cart handles are more germy than public restrooms? I always wondered why so many moms have those shopping cart covers. I guess I don't think about germs as much since we left NYC - a place where my children licked the subway poles on occasion.
The winner of this week's freebie will receive the fabulous Cheetah Print car seat cover (a $70 retail value). What a great thing for everyone out there expecting winter babies! Aren't expecting? Well, it would make an excellent baby shower gift!
And if you don't happen to win the freebie cover or you have your eye on a different fabric choice, for a limited time, Tales readers will receive a 10% discount on any carseat cover. Just use this link to place your order.
How to win this Freebie:

-Winner will be randomly picked and announced Friday(5/10) morning.

Ooh! I love these! I've always wanted one...

I have one. We took our baby to Bryce Canyon last February and it was 5 degrees outside. The views were spectacular but the only person in the family that was truly warm was the baby. They really work!

What a great idea! Y'know all these momtrepeneur companies remind me of my mom. She says she made binky holders and those little roll-pillows you put in carseats for newborns when her kids were small and if she'd only patented the ideas, she'd've been rich.

Those are SO CUTE!!! Much cuter than anything I've seen sold in stores... Love them!

Ugh, we'll probably be leaving lovely sunny CA soon and I'll probably end up needing this for the next kiddo.

I'll post in wild hope that someday I'll be able to use it.
