    Advice I’d Share With Myself As A New Mom

    December 29, 2022 / 0 Comments

    I came across a note from a year ago on my phone. It had a list of things I had written down that I wanted to remember if I had the opportunity to have another child. I read through it and thought it may really help a new Mom, so I wanted to share. I called it “Notes To Myself.” SLEEPNo matter how hard you try to conquer baby and toddler sleep, there will be phases that are hard. Relax and follow your gut instead of google. Stop stressing so much and go to bed early instead of staying up. I know “you time” is tempting, but sleep is vital.…

    30 Gift Ideas For Her (That We Actually Want)

    December 17, 2022 / 0 Comments

    Ok guys, I’ve taken all the work out for you! All you have to do is click, buy, and wrap. Some women will just tell you what they want, but if they don’t, the key to great gifts for the ladies in your life is buying something that takes some thought/effort or buying something they wouldn’t normally buy for themselves. Things that are higher quality or even just feel luxurious are always great! I’ve included gifts from lots of price points. ($)-under $50($$)-$50-150($$$)-over $150 Now go buy your wifey-friend-mama, etc. a great gift! -Nicole

    20 Non-Toy Gift Ideas For Kids

    December 15, 2022 / 0 Comments

    I started my gift guide series for the sole purpose of helping parents and gift-givers to find gifts that would actually get played with and don’t add to the toy clutter. But, sometimes gifts really depend on the child and it’s hard to tell until you try something. So, another option if you feel like the child already has too many toys would be to give non-toy gifts. At a party the other night, a friend was asking me if I thought an experience would be a good gift and it gave me the idea for this post! Here are 20 non-toy gift ideas that would be great for kids:…

    15 Most Played With Toys For 1-2 Year Olds

    1-2 year olds are generally a little easier to buy toys for because they probably don’t have too many yet (but just wait, all the toys are coming lol). This was a fun age to buy toys. I felt like I was just as excited as my son was when he got something new! Here are our top 15 most played with toys for the 1-2 year old age. Again, he had many more favorites, these are just the things he played with over and over again. I hope this helps you with some toy ideas for those 1-2 year olds in your life! -Nicole

    20 Most Played With Toys For 2-3 Year Olds

    Sometimes it’s hard to know what gifts will get a lot of use with kids. I’m going to share our favorite gift ideas for 2-3 year olds that are tried and true! I now have a 3 year old son and these were his most played with toys over the past year. Disclaimer: Make sure to read the ages on toys. Things like kinetic sand and magna tiles say 3 and up, but my son loved playing with them around 2.5. We just played with him. He also didn’t put a ton of things in his mouth at that age. So you just have to know your child. There are…

    Sometimes as parents, we get marketed into buying so many things that don’t live up to the hype. These are a few items we bought for my son last year that either weren’t played with very much or that we just didn’t think was worth it. This is thankfully a short list, but still has some pricey items on it. I hope this helps you stay away from a few things that your toddler may not play with a ton. Remember, it’s simple things that make them happy. You don’t have to spend a million dollars. Make sure to check out my next post about our top 20 favorite toys…
