A backpack for camp with a lunchbox that clips on instead of in by Lands End, a moisturizer that rids you of red irritated skin by Diane Lai, a natural body wash that leaves you smelling like honey by Burt's Bees, an anti-bacterial teething bonbon by Dress Me Up Organics and a parenting book by award winning author Amy Lou Jenkins. These are just a few of the exciting new recipients of the Parent Tested Parent Approved Seal of Approval (PTPA Media).

PTPA Media has North America´s largest parent tester community – they are a leader in their field with over 40,000 families signed up as testers.

"The PTPA Winner's Seal on a product package or website helps parents identify products that have been tested and recommended by other parents. It's like shopping with your best friend," says PTPA Founder and CEO, Sharon Vinderine.

Since 2008, PTPA has evaluated thousands of products and services from both leading manufacturers and emerging brands. Because independent parents evaluate these products in their own homes, PTPA winners are chosen based on merit and consumer experience – not on commercial considerations.

PTPA Media has become a recognized source by the media for credible and reliable recommendations for the audience. PTPA Founder Sharon Vinderine has presented PTPA winners on over 40 morning shows including the Rachael Ray Show, Fox and Friends and Canada AM.

Here are just a few of the innovative new products to receive the PTPA Winner´s Seal of Approval for Summer 2011:

Sharon Vinderine is the Founder and President of PTPA Media, which stands for Parent Tested, Parent Approved because the concept of a seal of approval badly needed updating.

The consumer calls the shots; independent volunteer parent consumers, field-testing products in the real world, and then being given a direct voice to the manufacture of products for their families and homes.

Sharon is a frequent guest on morning shows throughout North America on Fox, NBC, ABC as well as CTV. As well she is a syndicated columnist and regularly writes for an assortment of parent centric web sites.

Vinderine also serves as head of her own private company, Small Made Simple, Inc. that focuses on the creation and distribution of baby products such as the award-winning Kangaroo Towel™. Created to simplify bath time with her own small children, the Kangaroo Towel and its unique pouch was designed to keep mom and dad dry while providing a warm comfy spot for baby during those wet and messy transitions from bath to changing table. Since its launch in Canada, the award winning Kangaroo Towel has been featured in many television shows across North American and continues to be a leader in the unique accessories category of parenting products.

Vinderine´s business background includes vast experience in the wireless industry.
