Traditional K’NEX look awesome! but in most cases are a bit too difficult for kids, especially younger kids who see what they can create with K’NEX and want in on the fun. Luckily, K’NEX has recently put out a great line of toys catering to children up to 5 years old.
K’NEX’ Sesame Street Building Sets are an excellent educational toy, thanks to Team Mom, we had the opportunity to try the K’NEX Sesame Street Neighborhood Collection Police Station ($20.99) and had a ball! The included Play & Learn activity sheet, as well as the additional building ideas came in handy to add some diversity to the play time so it didn’t become old and boring fast. The kids had a great time learning about the stop sign and the traffic signs and the youngest had a ball telling her sister that she was getting put in jail–a time I was lucky enough to have caught on camera:
The K’NEX Sesame Street Building Sets became an instant favorite toy to play with that is consistently picked up and taken out of the box every time they are at our house; and when we ask if they want to play with something else, since they have an incredible amount of toys here, they’ll play with the new toy for a little while and then just go back to the K’NEX building sets, which is great because it’s always nice to have tried and true toys that remain a favorite around when they want them.
The K’NEX Sesame Street Building Sets are made for children up to 5 years old, do not contain any dangerously small objects that can be choked on and will provide for hours of uninterrupted fun with the activity sheet and additional building ideas–What other toys out there can you say that about!?
It is incredibly difficult to find small holiday gifts for co-workers, your children’s favorite teachers, neighbors who have been kind to you and the list goes on. It’s easy to pick up gift cards, small gift baskets or cards that don’t truly mean much, but are easy to hand off and let those people know that you were thinking of them.
Here is an inexpensive, small and very nice gift for the women in your life who you want to give a little something that will not just let them know that you were thinking of them this holiday season, but something that they can also use–Bath & Body Works Holiday Traditions Give Good Cheer ($10) The Good Cheer gift set contains three 2oz. festively scented body lotions in Vanilla Bean Noel, Winter Candy Apple and Festive Vanilla Fig.
These lotions are terrifically scented, non-greasy and will hydrate and continuously smooth the skin.
Etsy is the perfect place to find incredibly, outrageously cute items for babies and I could not believe how cute these little boots were and when I saw them, I had to share them! My Little Button Boots ($24) from hipknotz are Ugg-inspired, handmade soft and warm boots made with suede yarn, featuring a button front flap closure. They are made for babies 0 to 3 months and will keep their little feet super warm throughout the entire holiday and winter season!
The holidays are a great time to give new moms a great product for their baby that will treat fickle, eczema and rash-prone skin, as we know small babies are always very prone to. Organic Baby Soothe Shampoo & Wash ($16.95) is a great, organic product for your baby’s hair and body containing 100% pure essential oils and a combination of organic lavender, known for its soothing aromatherapy properties and orange, shea butter and aloe vera that will restore healthy, smoothe and hydrating skin that will leave a protective layer of moisture and nutrients. It can also be used by adults with sensitive and fickle skin!
This is such a great gift idea, not only for its healing and protective qualities, but also for eco-conscious moms because the container is biodegradable and the product was not tested on animals, contains no synthetic dyes or mineral oil and is great for all skin types.
Burt’s Bees is known for their exquisite quality personal care items and for their commitment to treating the environment with respect. Just in time for the holidays, they have put together an excellent gift for women as well as female tweens and teens–the Polka Dot Mani Pedi Gift ($20)
The gift set contains all full-sized products you will need to achieve a luxurious mani-pedi, leaving your perfectly polished and feeling pampered! You save $7 with this gift pack rather than purchasing them all separately and you also get an adorable polka dot bag to keep your set in.
Includes 2oz jar of Almond Milk Beeswax Hand Crème, 4.34oz tube of Coconut Foot Crème, .60oz jar of Lemon Butter Cuticle Crème, .15oz tube of Replenishing Lip Balm with Pomegranate Oil, a Bee Nail File, 2 Cuticle Sticks, all contained within a Red and White Polka Dot Bag.
It isn’t hard to find board games to take out for weekly family game nights or games to sit around and play in mixed company and have a fun night. However, it is very hard to find a board game that will not just get you excited to sit down and play, but also a game that won’t be boring or get boring, and is especially made for dames.
What’s a DAME to do?! is a game that will make you laugh so hard your sides will hurt; it is the ultimate Girls Night In activity–just invite up to 8 of your closest girl friends over, open a bottle of wine and let the hilarity ensue.
The object of the game is to guess how the “Dilemma Dame” would react to life’s little dilemmas… like seeing an old flame at the grocery store 2 aisles away and she is NOT looking her best, what’s a dame to do?! The players have Reaction Cards and pick the best answer in their cards to guess what you would do and if you don’t know the Dilemma Dame very well, just use your female intuition to guess what they would do, or just pick the most hilarious answer. The Dilemma Dame then goes through the cards and picks which one best accurately describes what she would do in that dilemma.
Here’s another random Dame Dilemma from the game:
I just accidentally forwarded a gossipy email from a good friend to my entire address list, what’s a DAME to do?!
Sample responses to choose from:
1. Consider this an “Aha!” moment.
2. Hide in the bathroom.
3. Think, it’s no biggie.
4. Make a drugstore run.
5. Be paralyzed with fear.

Is there a person on your holiday shopping list who has an abundance of magazines full of information they want to remember or tuck away recipe cards or write down information and how-to’s they find in magazines for future use? Well now you have the perfect gift for your magazine enthusiast!
Scanalog ($49.95) is computer software that you can use to store, catalog and retrieve your favorite articles, recipes and how-to’s from your favorite magazines! Scanalog makes it easy to store everything you want to keep from every single magazine you read so you never lose, misplace or accidentally throw it out again. It was created by a woman who had the exact dilemma we’ve all had at least once–when she was trying to explain to her husband how she wanted a new house project to look and she had been inspired by a magazine article that she, of course, could not find to show her husband. So, with a half done patio, she created Scanalog and for three years after, she built a thriving business and solved a problem head-on.
Scanalog comes with eleven different master categories; home decoration, gardening, home maintenance, food and wine, travel, antiques and collectibles, crafts, parenting, health and beauty, career and spirit. Scanalog will undoubtedly give you a great space to catalog everything and anything you find in a magazine that you want to save, without having a stack of old magazines taking up valuable space in your home.
