Easter Books for Kids

You all know by now I love building a book collection for my kids for every holiday! There are so many great Easter books out there for kids of all ages that both celebrate the meaning of the holiday and also the change of seasons welcoming Spring! I have broken down my recommendations into two categories. First, board books that are great for younger kids, many of which include lift-a-flaps and interactive pages. And secondly, story books for kids who are a little older and love to sit through and understand the meaning of a story or perhaps read one themselves!

Favorite Things Gift Guide 2024

Every holiday season I have two favorite things parties I attend with girlfriends and I look forward to them all year! At each party we bring a gift, around $50 value, and do a gift exchange where we pick numbers to choose gifts and when it is our turn to open we can pick an unopened gift or steal one that has already been opened. It is a blast and a fun way to discover new products that also make great gift ideas. I have rounded up all the ideas that were gifted from the two parties I attended. Keep in mind, some of these items were gifted together to get to the $50 value and some were purchased during sales like Black Friday, so off sale may be priced a little higher than $50.

Disney World : Magical Chaos 

Disney is SO magical, there is no denying that. The joy my kids experienced was nothing I have witnessed and my husband and I were reminded how much we love rides. But, after taking my own kids I don’t think people talk enough about how truly insane it is! So, while I am not an expert, here are my takeaways and honest advice from one Mom’s experience.

It can be an adventure to keep their little minds engaged during a flight, so we polled the community for the best tips and activities that have worked to keep kids this age busy.
