PTPA Media Awards Announces Their Winning Products for the 2009 Holiday Season!

PR Log (Press Release) – Nov 04, 2009 – A single-dose nasal spray, a book of games that build your infant’s brainpower, a non-contact thermometer and a parent-friendly Internet-filtering program are among the innovative new products that have just won the PTPA seal of approval from North America’s parents.

Consumers looking for practical, high-quality products and services can rest easy knowing that products bearing the PTPA Media “Winner” Seal are all “Parent Tested, Parent Approved.”

Because independent parents evaluate these products in their own homes, PTPA winners are chosen based on merit and consumer experience – not on commercial considerations. As a result, the PTPA Seal is quickly gaining recognition as an international leader in certifying consumer products for quality, effectiveness and value.
“As a working single mother, I go to PTPA for unbiased and ‘safe’ advice...from parents, not marketers pushing a particular product,” says actress and author Josie Bissett, former star of Melrose Place and now a mother of two school-age children. “PTPA makes it much easier to find products that enrich my children’s lives. Who better to trust than other parents who have done their homework?”

Companies ranging from Disney and Knowledge Adventure to Wells Fargo and Cisco all submit their products for testing by PTPA’s network of over 20,000 volunteer product testers. Only those that receive high marks from PTPA’s unbiased, knowledgeable testers are awarded the PTPA Seal of Approval.

Here are just a few of the innovative new products to receive the PTPA Winner Seal for the 2009 holiday season:

* Baby Smarts: A simulating book filled with developmental games for building your baby’s brain power, one activity at a time!

* Cleanoz Single Use Saline Nasal Spray: a hygienic, easy-to-use sterile applicator for clearing a child’s nasal passages while avoiding dangerous germs;

 * CyberPatrol Parental Controls: User-friendly software that lets parents control the amount of time their children spend on the computer, and block unsuitable content.

* Kerpoof Studio- Disney’s free Kerpoof Studio provides web-based drawing and multimedia software,  with no advertising or hidden costs.

* EasyBloom Plant Sensor: An  Internet-connected gardening tool that utilizes plant sensor technology to take the guesswork out of gardening.

* Kids-Med Thermofocus 5-in-1 Non Contact Thermometer: A trauma-free thermometer that has no contact with the skin. Clinically proven to be as accurate as a rectal or ear thermometer, it measures the temperature of a forehead with the click of a button.

“At PTPA Media, we are proud to play a role in certifying innovative new products that parents can trust,” says Sharon Vinderine, president and founder of PTPA Media. “It’s win-win. By improving communication between manufacturers and consumers, we are helping companies serve their market better, and helping families identify products that have been tested and recommended by their peers.”
