This review of a RainbowSouffle JetPack is part of the Second Annual Natural Parents Network Holiday Gift Guide!

I will be bringing you FIVE Gift Guide reviews over the next several days — so read about these products I love, and then come back to enter the giveaways on November 6. I solicited the prizes I'm reviewing specifically because I knew my family already loved them or because they were right up my kids' alley. I'm so pleased to present them to you over the next five days!

And I'm not the only one who got to review amazing, eco-conscious, mindful, and natural products: A whole crew of our NPN volunteers did, too! If you need to complete your holiday shopping, find a birthday present for a friend, or just treat yourself to something special, the NPN Holiday Gift Guide has something for everyone. But what's even better, the NPN Holiday Gift Guide is a great opportunity to shop consciously and to support many naturally minded small businesses.

The 55 companies that have provided items for review and giveaway are almost exclusively made up of work-at-home shops or companies that are dedicated to supporting eco-conscious choices. I'm featuring one of those companies in my review below. When you get done reading my review, please click on over to the full Second Annual Natural Parents Network Holiday Gift Guide, where you'll find information on 58 products. In total, we're giving away goodies worth more than $2,500!

Even if you don't win one of our fabulous prize packages, please consider spending part of your gift-giving budget at one of these small businesses. By supporting small businesses, you are helping families, boosting local economies, and supporting ethical practices of manufacturing, production and selling. Take advantage of coupon codes provided by many of the companies. You'll be able to find them at the full Gift Guide when it publishes November 6.

To make browsing easier, we've split the Gift Guide into sections with products that are Perfect for Kids and Perfect for Families. And you can find all 6 Rafflecopter widgets there, too, to make entering all the giveaways easy.

Review of RainbowSouffle's JetPacks

Without further ado, here is my review — thank you for reading and entering!

This is a joint review and giveaway of the JetPack from RainbowSouffle between Natural Parents Network and Hobo Mama.

My experience

So…how did my six-year-old and two-year-old like the JetPacks?

I'll let the pictures give you an idea.

Blast off!

The boys couldn't wait to put them on — and keep them on! I loved how soft and shiny they were, and all the incredible details, the expert stitchery, and the variety of textured fabrics.

I love that they fit both a large and a small child, no problem, and that they're compact and squishy enough to tuck into a dress-up bin.

The only thing I might alter on my own is adding a chest clip (probably a barrette, since I have a billion, or maybe a hook-and-loop tab) to keep the elastic straps from slipping off their shoulders. My six-year-old did fine keeping them up, but my two-year-old needed some help from time to time. It didn't affect his enthusiasm, though! They both proudly showed off how fast they could fly in their JetPacks.

Mikko is now sure the owner of RainbowSouffle is a genius and has commissioned her to make a working model. Next stop: Outer space!
