Soap Time Review & Give Away

This give away is now closed.

This summer our family has battled the stomach virus (YUCK!) more times than I want to count so when Soap Time & Mom Select asked if I wanted to try a product that helps kids learn to properly wash their hands, I jumped at the opportunity. 

Here is a product description from Soap Time:

SoapTime® is a patented system that provides a multi-media “Edutainment” experience that makes wash time FUN!  Children are encouraged to wash their hands while learning proper wash time (:20 seconds).  It’s great for children of all ages, especially between 2 ½ & 7 when they are initiating independent hand washing & need encouragement to get to the sink.  They are engaged by lights, musical & educational content while learning Healthy Habits for Life! 

Now Connor is going to demonstrate how to use Soap Time.

(If you are reading in an e-mail or RSS feed, click here to see the video.)



There are 3 uniquely Themed Bottles: ABC, Earth, and Elephant, each recognized by the SmartBase®.  All bottles have educational themes narrated by our very own, Professor Goodhabits.  The music was written, produced, & recorded by Brian Vander Ark, of the Verve Pipe.  ABC’s theme is language, Earth’s theme is nature (Just a note:  this one does contain a reference to the earth being 40 billion years old.), and Elephant’s theme is wild kingdom.

Here is a video of the ABC Soap Time:

(If you are reading in an e-mail or RSS feed, click here to see the video.)

I really love this product!  It helps kids (& adults) understand how long they need to wash their hands and Soap Time is entertaining.  I have noticed that since using this product Connor is washing his hands longer even when he doesn't have Soap Time.

Soap Time is available to purchase at select Bed, Bath & Beyond stores (nationwide soon!).

  6. I have four kiddos ages 1-7 and number 5 on the way. I would love to try this b/c it seems that often times my kids "forget" to wash their hands with soap or even wash them at all. This looks like a great way to get them back in the habbit.

  24. I have two very busy boys and I think this product is really neat. The elephant in my favorite. My oldest wants to be a zoo keeping when he grows up so I think he would like it ALOT. Everything is a race to them and I think this would help them to slow down during washing and get the job done right!

  30. These are so cute! And my germaphobe self washes at least 30 times a day, so it would make it a little more fun! The little ones of our house aren't quite tall enough to reach the soap yet, but I'm sure they'd love listening anyway.

  40. I would love to win Soap Time for a couple of different reasons: 1. I have 5 children that I homeschool, so they are always home needing to clean up at multiple times during the day. 2. We have 2 dogs, which bring germs into the house. 3. 3 of the children are 6 and under and need some influencing to correctly wash their hands (and they don't take constructive criticism from their older brother and sister too well). 4. I just really like the cute singing--it would put a smile on my face also!
    Thanks for considering me in your choice!
