Dream Pairs Shoes – Perfect For Back To School! {Review}

Thank you to Dream Pairs for sending shoes for my daughter in exchange for my honest opinion.
Up until now, almost all of my daughter's shoes have been secondhand. I am frugal, and when the kids are little, they wear the shoes so little before they outgrow them that I didn't want to pay for new shoes! Now that she is getting bigger, I understand the importance of having good athletic shoes that fit her well when she is running around and playing. I look for a cute design, quality and a good Read more [...]
NCircle Entertainment’s NEW Octonauts Season 3 Gift Set + The New Adventures Of Gumby {+ Giveaway}

I received product from NCircle Entertainment to facilitate this post. As always, all opinions are my own.
Once summer ends, it starts to get COLD here in Minnesota. So while we don't spend much time in front of the screens during the hot summer days, winter is a different story. On the days that it's just way too cold out... We love to hang out in the living room as a family and sit down to watch a dvd together.

Favorite Kids Shows On DVD From PBS – Mister Rogers Neighborhood, Arthur & Wild Kratts! {Review}

Thank you to PBS for sending DVDs for review in exchange for my honest opinion in this review.
I've said it before and I'll say it again, we love PBS in this house! My husband and I both grew up on PBS and now our kids are as well. At three-and-a-half-years-old my daughter has decided she doesn't need a nap anymore. This makes for one exhausted momma most days! So, I am trying to do a 'quiet/rest time' in the afternoons even if she does not sleep. Lately I have been turning to some new favorite Read more [...]
Get All Your Back to School Supplies with Stuck On You + a Giveaway

Thanks to Stuck On You for sending me all of these goodies! As always, all opinions are my own.
As we head into the school season, I've noticed that Target is absolutely packed the last few times I've been there. I can only assume it's everyone grabbing their last minute back-to-school items and I'll tell you, I have wanted to completely avoid that whole mess this year! While our kids are homeschooled, I still purchase supplies each year for them to use at home and at our homeschool co-op. This Read more [...]
