Shout Fall Play Review

The leaves are falling which means my children are very excited to start making leaf piles to jump in. Fall is a great time for kids to play outside, but it can be a very dirty time too! My kids are constantly coming inside with grass and mud stains and it is getting difficult to keep up with the laundry!

I was thrilled when I received an assortment of Shout products and a card set of "52 Activities in Nature" to review from Growing Tree Toys. Growing Tree Toys sells learning toys for children of all ages and they have teamed up with Shout  to help spread the word about the Go Play initiative.

Go Play Initiative: Shout has developed this initiative to teach parents the value of unstructured play and the benefits of getting off the sofa and going outdoors to play. Their Facebook page offers some great content themes and ideas for play time.  Feeling inspired by their initiative, I turned off my computer for a little bit and bundled the kids up for some good old-fashion fall fun. We had a little help from the 52 Activities in Nature Set.

Here are my kids having a blast:



I was given several Shout products to review:

Shout Advanced Ultra Gel - Combines gel stain fighters with a convenient stain-lifting brush to help penetrate and remove the toughest of stains.The product allows you to treat stains up to one full week before washing the clothing! It is safe for colorfast washables and works in all water temperatures.

I love that you can treat stains ahead of time with this product. I always wait until the weekends to do laundry; however, my kids stain their clothes every day of the week. By the time it is laundry day, I cannot remember which shirts have been soiled over the week. So, how did it work. Check it out:

Shout Color Catcher -  These sheets absorb and trap loose dyes in your wash water, safeguarding your clothes from color bleeds and helping to preserve original colors. They can be used in every load to keep clothes looking vibrant and bright! This can help save time by reducing the need for sorting and reduces the need for half-size loads.

I thought that this product worked great. I tested it out by washing my daughter's bedding. She had a dark purpose blanket and light pastel sheets. I was thrilled when the pastels came out exactly how they were put in the washer! You can see from this picture, that the sheets literally did "catch" the color:


Shout Trigger Laundry Stain Remover - formulated with stain-fighting ingredients and enzymes that break up and remove tough stains. It clings, penetrates and lifts away stains in all water temperatures.

The product is simple to use, simply aim and spray.  Again, it works great.

I am a total Shout fanatic after reviewing all these great products!!

Buy it here: You can buy Shout products from your local store and on Amazon. 52 Activities in Nature can be purchased for $6.95 from Amazon.
