Skip*Hop Goes A-Twitter

You've heard of twitter, right? If you're not on twitter you should be. I know, I know...who wants to read the little details of your life? Well, it's more than that. Twitter is the BEST networking tool I've used in a long time. More and more, companies are starting to twitter and are finding great benefits to their bottom line. One company that recently jumped on the twitter bandwagon is Skip*Hop.

Skip*Hop specializes in parenting items, and they're probably best known for their ultra-hip, highly functional line of diaper bags. When they first started twittering they announced a contest; one of their first fifty followers would win a Skip*Hop diaper bag! Sadly, I wasn't the chosen winner...BUT!!!! they quickly announced that each one of their first fifty followers was a winner! They sent each of us a Pacifier Pocket. What an amazingly generous company!

I couldn't believe how fast my Pacifier Pocket arrived...literally within a day or so of my e-mail confirmation. It's a great product, designed to hold two pacifiers, and has a strap so you can attach it to a stroller or diaper bag. I know it will come in handy, because I can't tell you how many treasure hunts I have conducted, looking for a missing pacifier.

Skip*Hop is a company you can feel good doing business with.

Every time you buy a Skip Hop product, a percentage of the profits are given to a number of organizations much more important than we are. In particular, a portion of your purchase goes towards supporting the Pediatric Aids Foundation (www.pedaids.org) and The Ovarian Cancer Research Fund (www.ocrf.org). We are proud to be able to support these critically important organizations.
Go check out Skip*Hop today, and follow them on twitter. A company this socially aware and involved deserves our business!
