Hi friends! It’s starting to warm up outside finally! The sun is out more and the days are getting longer. That means Easter is right around the corner and it’s my favorite time of year. I love being able to experience the excitement and joy of the new season through my kids eyes. When the Spring season hits, I start to think about non-candy items to fill my children’s Easter baskets. I have partnered with BabbleBoxx to bring you some fun kid friendly items to get you ready for Spring and Easter. I will list out the items below and link everything up for you for easy shopping.

Magic Mixies: A magical toy. Moose Toys launched Magic Mixies in 2021 with the Magic Cauldron. It was literally the hottest toy of the holiday season. I remember seeing it all over social media. Everyone wanted them. Magic Mixies released a new Cauldron! Your child can Sprinkle the Bubble N’ Fizz Dust and add water to reveal a cute Mixie Plushie. There are 6 Mixie Plushies to collect. Cauldron Gem, Mixie Gem, Mixie Mark, Mixie Tail, Magic Wand, and Magic Elixir. My daughter Winter and son Roman had the best time mixing the potion and waiting for the reveal of the Mixie Plushie. After the reveal is done, my kids still loved playing with the cauldron and wand. They can add water to the wand and it will change colors again and again.

Baby Magic: Soothing Hair & Body Wash and Creamy Whipped Butter (Vanilla Oat). Magic Magic has been around for over 70 years. Their products are great for sensitive skin and the entire family can use them not just babies. They are dermatologist-recommended and always without parabens, phthalates, dyes, and sulfates. Soothing Hair & Body Wash offers a gentle cleanse that will leave skin feeling soft. The Creamy Whipped Butter (Vanilla Oat) is very lightweight and will not leave skin feeling greasy. You skin will feel hydrated after use and the smell is amazing! Our nighttime routine has been a warm bath and then a massage using the Creamy Whipped Butter.

Manhattan Toy: Bunny Hop Mixer. This wooden baking toy is so cute to spark imaginative play! It is a ten-piece wood and fabric set. When you pull back on the bunny ears, you can pretend to mix up your ingredients (milk, egg, sugar , & flour) in the bowl. This toy is great for role playing, motor skill development, and your children can bake right along side of you in the kitchen with this! You can save 20% sitewide on Easter gifts at manhattantoy.com through March 30! No code is needed.

Build a Bear: Has the most adorable Easter basket gifts for your kids. You can go to their website www.buildabear.com/easter-shop or to your local Build a Bear store to find a plush cuddly friend with all the cute accessories for Easter. Roman has the Frog and he loves carrying it with him everywhere he goes. It has become his buddy and he is really into dressing it each day.

French Toast Apparel: Have your kids get their best Easter looks on with clothes from French Toast Apparel. This brand has been around since 1985 and they are dedicated to making the best possible school wear. My older boys have a more casual since of fashion. However, for the Holidays it is important to my family that they wear a collar shirt. Hudson has the French Toast Short Sleeve Oxford Shirt. I love that it is no wrinkle fabric because I hate to iron. It is available in 3 colors and in sizes toddler, youth, husky, and adult. He also has the French Toast Double Knee Relaxed Fit Pant. The twill dress pants have an adjustable waist. They’re made durable which is great for my boys who are very tough on pants. The fabric won’t wrinkle and they wash well! Available in 3 colors and in sizes youth, slim, husky, and adult. All of the French Toast Apparel clothes are perfect for children who need to follow a uniform for school too. You can get 20% off throughout March- No code needed!

Are your toddlers and preschoolers into the series Bluey? Mine are and I’m a fan as well! This adorable series is about Bluey, a lovable Blue Heeler dog who lives with her dad Bandit, Mum Chili, and little sister Bingo. Every episode is filled with adventure and hilarious moments.

The Bluey Ultimate Lights & Sounds Playhouse was a huge hit for my 2.5 year old son. He played with it for over an hour the first time I gave it to him. My 5 year old daughter loves it as well. I think it is great because it is large enough for both kids to play with at the same time! It is an engaging preschool toy that will keep your children entertained. 

Your children can recreate some of their favorite moments from Bluey with this play-set. It is a 3 story house with 7 rooms that comes fully furnished with the same furniture seen in the TV show. When you press the Octopus button in the kids’ room, the house lights up and plays over 50 sounds and phrases. The play-set includes figures of Bluey, Bingo, and Chatterbox. When your children are done playing, all the pieces and figures fit right into the house. The house then folds away for easy storage. 

The Bluey Ultimate Lights & Sounds Playhouse is available at Walmart, Target, and Amazon.

It’s Christmas time again! The season is magical and overwhelming all at the same time. I find that as your kids get older the holiday season has different struggles. One of them being, what the heck do I buy my child?!? Hudson (11) and Everett (9) are at that hard to buy for stage. Winter (5) and Roman (2) are easy to shop for and they get excited about everything. However, I don’t like to buy them a lot of toys that will just sit and collect dust. I took my 11 years of mom experience and complied a holiday gift guide below. You will find ideas for boys, girls, teens, tweens, young kids, toddlers, babies, sisters, aunts, uncles, parents etc.

Now that my boys, Hudson and Everett are getting older (10 and 8 years old), I’m not always the cool mom in their eyes. If you ask them they would tell you I embarrass them, yell too much, and I’m no fun! I try and find balance in being the fun mom they want to hang with and the mom who is there to guide them through life! I want them to know they can always come to me and their dad. We also have rules like clean your room, do your schoolwork, help take the garbage out, help with your little sister and brother, and be kind and respectful to earn your screen time. 
When they do earn screen time you can find both boys playing Roblox with their friends. I recently surprised them with the new, Walmart exclusive, Nerf blasters that were inspired by the Roblox games Roblox Adopt Me! And Roblox game MM2. I got them the Nerf Roblox Adopt Me! BEES dart-firing blaster and the Nerf RobloxMM2: Shark Seeker blaster. To avoid eye injury: Use of eyewear is required for players and people within range. 
Roblox Adopt Me! BEES dart-firing blaster includes a special code that allows you to redeem an exclusive virtual item on Roblox! The blaster features lever-action blasting and a rotating 8-dart drum and includes 8 Nerf darts. You can blast all 8 darts right in a row!

You can buy your kids the new Roblox Nerf Blasters or any new Nerf gifts at Walmart! I think this makes a great Christmas gift too for those hard-to-buy kids! Shop here for all Nerf gifts

This time of year, nothing gives me more joy than giving gifts! As my children open their gifts, seeing their little faces light up with excitement will be some of my most cherished memories. Each holiday season I enjoy putting out a children’s holiday gift guide here on my blog. I love to help other parents come up with fun and different ideas to gift to their children. I thought it would be helpful to include ideas for stocking stuffers for toddlers too! Below are 3 ideas and everything is linked. 

A child’s Introduction to the Nutcracker from Running Press:

Who doesn’t love the magical story of the classic holiday favorite The Nutcracker Ballet? Together you and your kids can follow along as The Nutcracker makes its way from an idea, to the big stage, and then on to become the world’s most popular holiday ballet. A child’s Introduction to the Nutcracker from Running Press is filled with beautiful illustrations and helps little readers see all the people, all the creativity, and diversity that has helped to make this ballet such an important part of the holiday season. The book even includes a removable coloring poster to spark your children’s creativity! I look forward to reading the book about dance to my children every holiday season.

Surprize By Stride Rite Toddler Shoes:

If you have a busy on the go toddler you know they need a good durable pair of shoes. As a mom of 4, I have often turned to Stride Rite for my toddlers. They design their shoes to help build strength and coordination through every step. Giving kids the confidence they need to go go go! The Razer black toddler boy shoe has a memory form insole for comfort and it’s 100% machine washable literally making it my favorite shoe because it always looks clean.

They are sturdy for her to run around the school playground in and easy to put on and take off with their wide opening. The best part is the laces light up and the shoes are water proof so you can throw them right in the wash when they get dirty!
