This is a sponsored post with BroBasket. I have experienced BroBasket gift sets first hand in the past. All opinions are my own. When I think about gift baskets, I tend to think about women first. I love getting bath or beauty themed gift baskets myself. You just don't usually see as many gift baskets for men in general. I love that BroBasket caters to gift baskets for men. Most BroBaskets feature alcohol gift sets, though they have some alcohol-free BroBaskets (boozeless, as they say on their Read more [...]

Thank you to True Growth for sending a True Tot Tower for review in exchange for my honest opinion. We have had a True Growth True Tot Tower for our daughter since October. We have used it for so many things! We Colored Easter Eggs using it, have done tons of arts and crafts projects and she has done a great deal of assisting in the kitchen and supervising my cooking and baking as well. She loves that she can be right in the action, and I love that she is safe! I am looking forward to looking Read more [...]

Thank you to The Fishing Caddy for sending product for review in exchange for my honest opinion. My husband and I love to fish. We grew up fishing with our dads and have very fond memories related to fishing. We both knew that fishing was something we wanted to do with our children as well, so we started bringing our daughter fishing in her tiny life jacket when she was just 6 months old. We did the same thing with our son, he has already been fishing with us in the boat this summer in that Read more [...]

I received product from Starlux Games to facilitate this post.  As usual, all opinions are my own. Summer has finally hit here in Minnesota and you know what we did last weekend?  We played Capture the Flag Redux, an interactive, glowing game that kids AND adults love!  After my cousin's annal bean bag tournament, we sat around the fire waiting for dark.  Once it hit, we were off!  Starlux Games has placed a spin on this classic childhood game, making it even better.  It was definitely a Read more [...]

I received product from Veyo Kids to facilitate this post.  As always, all opinions are my own. Summer is here!  I love that June has finally arrived.  We've already gone on a couple of family bike rides, stopped to splash at the beach for a bit, and even had our first summer swimming lessons for the three youngest kids.  But best of all, the sun has actually been shining here in Minnesota!  After a May snowstorm this year, summer is more than welcome to stick around for awhile. Sun Protection We Read more [...]

This is a guest post from Charlotte Wenham, Executive Director, pNeo LLC, April 2, 2019 Kitchens are magnets for toddlers. They’re full of enticing sights, sounds, smells and people involved in fun activities. Naturally, curiosity creates an overwhelming desire to investigate and participate. Babies and toddlers don’t seem to have a sense of danger. This false sense of security (probably developed when mom was ever-present and their inability to walk meant their exploration of the Read more [...]

I was sent samples from Cask Cartel. All opinions are my own. Another tie, a new wallet, a handmade card. It's easy to get in the habit of repeating the same gifts for father's day year after year. While Dad probably appreciates that handmade card every year, he may not need repeats of most other gifts. Consumables make a great choice! In particular, spirits are a gift that can be reused without feeling repetitive. Cask Cartel is an online liquor store that is American-owned. They offer Read more [...]

I am always on the lookout for fun props to Read more [...]
