I received a sample for this review/feature. Opinions expressed are my own.
Big Sis is OBSESSED with everything to do with mermaids. So much so that her birthday party this last weekend was all her friends coming over to swim in the pool and we rented tails for the girls to swim in. Every single girl LOVED it. There is something magical about mermaids that captures little girls’ hearts and imaginations. Enchantails, created by Southern California entrepreneurs, Tristy and Mark Viniello is an undersea realm of books and even tails for girls to sleep in.

Researching and discovering the lack of mermaid-inspired products available on the market for play and imagination, Tristy set out to create the world of Oceana and its 12 realms based on mythology and real-life places across the ocean to intrigue, excite and transport young minds ages 4-11 around the world.
