2016 Care Bears Kid Ambassador, Jessica Carscadden

Share Your Care Ambassador

While at Blogger Bash I was able to attend the Care Bears Luncheon. At the luncheon a young woman spoke. She is the 2016 Care Bears Kid Ambassador, Jessica Carscadden. She began the organization, We Care Bears. Jessica - Care Bears AmbassadorThe organization , We Care Bears, is to help first responders gift plush toys to children in unbearable situations all over the country. Jessica and her mother even donated the Care Bear plush decor from Care Bears Brunch to the local police station during their New York adventure – talk about #ShareYourCare!

You can visit Jessica’s website, WeCareBears.com, for more information on her organization and ways to help her cause. You can even lead a bear drive in your own community!

There is another cause close to the Carscadden family’s heart. They are gathering funds to adopt a new member of the family (or possibly two)! Please take a look at (and share!) their YouCaring page to learn more the Carscaddens’ mission to welcome Jentry into their loving home.

500 Balloon Water Balloon Fight with Bunch O Balloons

Our Bunch O Balloons Products

We received a sampling of great Bunch O Balloons products for free from ZURU. They are for us to play with and review and give our honest opinion on them. There was one product that we were not able to use because that will be saved for another day, we need a pool or lake or something to use that one, it fills using water around you and then you can use it as a water blaster.

In addition to the water balloons sent to us from Bunch O Balloons I went out and purchased 3 more packages. I even got the Red, White and Blue Target exclusive ones. I meant to use those on the Fourth of July but we never got a chance.

I was trying to make this a surprise for the kids but they already knew about it. I did manage to keep them in the house while I filled 500 water balloons. Then I hid them all over the yard. The thing I love most about Bunch O Balloons is that they solve two major problems with water balloons, filling them and tying them. The balloons are self tying and you can fill over 30 in one shot, 100 in 60 seconds if you are quick about switching them out on the hose. I should really try and do that sometime, do filling races with Bunch O Balloons. That would be fun.

Sneak Attack

Once I had all the balloons filled and hidden around the yard we came out and had a water balloon fight followed by the rain while we picked up all the pieces. There are a lot of pieces with 500 water balloons. While they are biodegradable you still have to pick them up. Also the devices for filling the balloons are recyclable, I’m happy about that.

A package of 100 balloons is $9.99 and the balloon launcher around $12.99. I forgot the retail on the toy that you can use to fill the Bunch O Balloons without a hose.
