The Original Seat Sack Review
When I first set up my classroom a few years ago, I was looking for an inexpensive way for my students to store their whiteboard and markers. I discovered that jumbo stretchy book covers fit nicely on the back of the chairs and the whiteboard slid perfectly into the pocket. This was a great way to keep the whiteboards at their desks without getting chipped and scratched.
However, I soon discovered that this was all the book covers could really hold. If the students added books, workbooks, or folders the book cover would stretch and the pocket would flip over, causing all of the contents to fall on the floor.
 |
| Adding books and other items caused the book covers to stretch. With added items, the book covers drag on the floor and the pockets flip, causing all of the contents to fall out. |
 |
| The stretched out pocket would sometimes cause the chair to become top heavy and tip it over. The added stress on the stretchy fabric also caused it to tear. |
 |
| Now my students can store books, workbooks, and folders in the seat sacks! |
 |
| The blue denim fabric will match just about any classroom decor |
 |
| No stretching, dragging, tipping, or tearing! |

Magnets.com Review
Does your refrigerator look like this?
Or this....?
 |
| The impact of fridge magnets is widespread throughout the world. More than 80% of all households in developed nations have magnets on their fridge, for both utility and purely decorative purposes. A refrigerator magnet's lifespan is typically between 5–10 years. The number of times a refrigerator door is viewed in an average household per day is 40, meaning that each magnet makes approximately 14,600 impressions per year. - Wikipedia |
Magnets are everywhere! I have about 50 on my refrigerator holding up pictures, schedules, and other tidbits from our life. We had to expand to the freezer in the garage because we have so many! Some of the magnets are from places we have visited, advertisements for products, or from local businesses and organizations. I even have some that I collected from cereal boxes back in the 70's! Magnets are a great way for businesses to keep their product visible at all times. When it's time to order pizza, we always refer to the local pizza shop magnet for the number!
When Magnets.com asked me to review their product I was excited because, as you can see, I LOVE refrigerator magnets!
