In case you were not following trends on social media last week I have to tell you that ShiftCon was taking place in Los Angeles. Due to work reasons I was not able to attend all 3 days of the conference. I was lucky to be able to make it to the last day, however due to other commitments I had my 9 year old with me. So I have decided to let you see my review through the eyes of my son. Let's be real, kids are honest and I think that I can send a bigger message if I tell you about organic and chemical free products from the point of view of a child that is not bias and if I give you my opinion. Before I tell you my son favorite products, I want to invite you to learn more about ShiftCon and I want to let you know that you can buy your ticket at a discounted price until the end on October. So here they are, in no particular order my son top picks from the products he tried at ShiftCon Organic Pastures Raw milk He liked so much that I had the go to the store and buy some. He says it taste better than normal milk and he also liked the cheese. For more information visit Organic Pastures Uncle Matt's Organic Photo credit: Ana Lydia Monaco (@latinaprpro) Since my son was a baby I had tried to stay away from juices, and he barely drinks any. However he really liked the apple juice from Uncle Matt’s. For more information visit Unle Matt's Organic Applegate Natural and Organic Meats Photo credit: Ana Lydia Monaco (@latinaprpro) As he is talking to Leah (@bookieboo) about organic products, he is eating some salami form Applegate. My son loves treats such as salami, pepperoni and prosciutto. He was really happy to find the organic version of one of his favorite treats. For more information visit Applegate Naturepedic Photo credit: Ana Lydia Monaco (@latinaprpro) One really cool room at ShiftCon was the relaxation room. You were able to recharge not only your electronics battery, but recharge yourself relaxing in this very comfortable mattress. For more information visit Naturepedic And now, time to say thank you... I would like to thank @bookieboo, @mrbookieboo and all the organizers for putting together such a great conference. I am looking forward for next year conference already. I would also like to thank all the sponsors and brands involved. The swag bags were just amazing. And also a big thank you to my lifesaver @AngMBishop for allowing Nico to be with your mom and kids so I could enjoy a little free time and mingle with friends and brands.

Magnetic Screen DooriGotTech (iGotTech): Easy to install and great for dogs #magneticscreendoor10/8/2014  Installing the Magnetic Screen Door was really easy. Once installed with the Velcro, stays in place even with two dogs coming in and out several days. It has not been super windy, but there has been some wind, and the screen has stayed in place. We installed in on the backyard door and that helped keep the fruit flies away. The dogs learned to use it right away and my husband that is picky about products, actually likes it a lot. It has been very practical during summer, because we got to enjoy the open doors without the bugs inside the house. I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers. Available on DVD: October 7, 2014 About the movieSynopsis: Ava is a mischievous young girl and martial arts student who really knows how to pack a punch! One day she meets Lala, a cuddly and kind tiger-like creature, and they discover they can talk to each other. She runs away from her village to join Lala in a mystical kingdom of wonderful animals, all specially chosen to live there, safe from humans. They befriend a huge bear who has a heart of gold, Uncle Bear, who tells them that Lala must leave the kingdom in three days, before the fierce Tiger General finds out they’re there. Uncle Bear is determined to help Ava escape, but they find out it’s not that easy, especially when the other animals discover that Lala has an extraordinary magical power. When Lala is captured, it’s up to Ava and Uncle Bear to rescue him in time to get Ava safely back home. Director: Wang Yunfei Writer: Wang Yunfei Cast: Tom Arnold, JK Simmons, Mira Sorvino, George Takei Did we like it?It was fun and entertaining. 80 minutes that they kids will be entertained and will also learn a few things about friendship.

I have a relationship with GigaSavvy, for whom I create original editorial content  Spring, summer, Halloween and Christmas. Just a few awesome events at Knott's during the year When I was living in Colombia, my brother and I were always looking forward to trips to the US because we were going to be able to visit amusement parks and ride roller coasters. I was lucky because my husband also loves roller coaster and we both passed that tradition to our son. My 9 year old loves thrill rides. The faster and higher the ride the better. We visit Knott’s Berry Farm several times a year. We also visit Cedar Fair in Ohio, so it makes sense of us to have a platinum season pass. One of the best things about passes at Knott’s is that they are affordable, you can choose between different passes and you get a great deal for your money.  The Knott's 2015 Annual Passes during this time of the year are at the lowest rates you will be able to buy them. Not only are at a low price but you can buy them and pay on small payments (as low as $8.50 a month for 9 monhts). Also if you are a new passholder, you will be able to enjoy unlimited visits in 2015 and one visit on 2014. It means that you can visit the park during Christmas time once and return as many times as you want in 2015.  This year, there is a new option for passes and I am super excited about it. You can buy a Season Pass Plus All-Season Dining and this means that you get all the benefits of the Season Passholder, plus one lunch and one dinner at participating locations throughout the park every day you visit Knott's Berry Farm in 2015. (Beverages are not included) and it can be paid on 9 easy payments of $11/month.  Picture with Snoopy during #Campspooky 2013 and 2014. I have enjoyed creating memories with my son at Knott's. We have the tradition now, that every visit we try to get a picture with Snoopy. You can create your own traditions with the convenience of a season pass.
