DISNEY’S TSUM TSUM AT SM ACCESSORIES KIDS

We were in Tokyo Japan Spring of 2016 and saw first hand how the Japanese love their theme parks ~ more so Disneyland and Disney Sea. They would come all donned in pairs or as a group in their favorite  characters, while touring Disney Parks. They are really so cute.

(Follow these links, if you missed our post on Tokyo Disneyland Resort >>>Tokyo Disneyland and Tokyo Disney Sea).

One of the more famous shirts I have seen, were  "Tsum Tsum".  Tsum Tsum was first released in Japan in 2013 as  stuffed toys.  It was based on Disney and Pixar characters.

Tsum Tsum is derived from the Japanese verb Tsumu meaning “to stock” because these stuffed toys are designed to stock on top of each other.

The stuffed toys have become a hit, and have been sold by Disney in the United States, Disneyland Paris and South Korea. Tsum Tsum mobile games and icons for online chat were also developed and have become a hit.

The stuffed characters has eventually inspired apparel, accessories, footwear and other knickknacks faithful to the charm of the Tsum Tsum stuffed toys.

Tsum Tsum long sleeved shirt with peek-a-boo shoulders is both fun and fashionable

Get a head start with Disney Tsum Tsum’s baller hat

Tsum Tsum cotton hand towels

Sporty or Sweet? Disney Tsum Tsum baller hat and beanie cuff hat

Tsum Tsum hand sanitizer with Frozen characters

 Flip over with the cuteness of these Tsum Tsum flip-flops

Kids will love the delightful Tsum Tsum merchandise – tees, hats, bonnets, flip flops, hand towels, and novelties - now available at SM Accessories Kids - The SM Store’s Character Shop Department.

Why I Love Belo Baby (With Give Aways)

I love Belo Baby for my children.

"Belo Baby is All Natural,  crafted with care for the most delicate skin, for the most meticulous moms".

• 100% certified natural ingredients

• 0% harmful ingredients

Gentle on my kids' skin and mine.

My son's skin sometimes get itchy from dryness and I am glad we've discovered Belo Baby's Lotion.

 

You only need a few drops, then apply.

It gives all the babying I want on a baby lotion.

Meanwhile, my nephew can't keep his hands off my Kuya's Belo Baby's Soap.  I think he really he really liked it, must be because of its mild baby powder scent.

Baby Belo's products are free  from synthetic chemicals and toxins, which means they are less likely to cause skin irritations, they are also gentler and safer compared to products with artificial ingredients.

Mommies will be excited to know that Belo Baby products are

rich with the following natural ingredients to nourish and condition our skin. 

Cocoa Butter ~ with anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory properties;

Strengthens and moisturizes skin.

Shea Butter ~ a super food for the skin;

Heals common skin conditions like eczema and rash

Sweet Almond Oil ~ a natural emollient for softening skin;

Locks in moisture into the skin.

This wonderful product just turned 1.

And as Belo Baby celebrates its 1st Birthday,

I am giving away Belo Baby products to lucky MamaSpeaks and MamaInCharge followers

(for Philippine Residents ONLY).
