Family trips are an amazing way to create memories. But you want to be sure to create the good kind of memories instead of the teeth-clenching variety. And we all know that it can easily go either way when you’re traveling with the kiddos. Kids simply aren’t built for long flights or car rides. Regardless of how well-behaved your littles may be, we can safely say that this isn’t their forte. But if you keep everyone busy and entertained ...

The Perfect Mother’s Day Gift From Little Kids
Disclosure: Product provided for review. All opinions are my own. Mother’s Day is one of the most celebrated holidays in the nation. Everyone has a mother, whether she is present or not, so everyone feels the impact of Mother’s Day. This mother’s day, while I’m celebrating my mom, grandmother, and mother in law, I’ll also be celebrating my friends. I have truly felt the impact of having my “village” and each of my close friends have made their ...
Our Kids Have SEEN ENOUGH Tobacco Ads. It’s Time for Change
This post was sponsored by Tobacco Free New York State as part of an Influencer Activation for Influence Central. All opinions expressed in my post are my own. I'm about to get a little judgemental in this post, so if you are a smoker and you're easily offended, maybe you should look away. Or, maybe this is the reality check you need. I still don't understand with so much knowledge and awareness about the dangers of cigarette smoking, people ...
Philips Avent New Natural Bottles Are a Perfect Fit for Us!

When I say I've tried just about every baby bottle out there with my son, I mean it. He was born with a tongue tie that wasn't diagnosed until he was about a month old, and at that point, I felt that we were finally getting into our groove and didn't ...
Celebrating National Super Hero Day with PJ Masks!
I’m pretty excited each year that National Superhero day rolls around. It’s a reminder to my kids to not only celebrate the superheroes they’ve learned from on tv, but to celebrate real-life heroes we know in our community. Since day to day heroes aren’t apparent in everyday life to younger children, they learn about heroic acts from their favorite characters on TV, like PJ masks, who are tv heroes that kids can relate to. PJ Masks fight bullies ...
A Nostalgic RC Racer With a Modern Twist from Playmobil
Disclosure: Product provided for review. All opinions are my own. It’s so interesting to see the differences between my kids and whether or not gender plays a role in their gameplay. We’ve never adhered to strict gender guidelines when it comes to toys, my girls love superheroes and my son loves Rapunzel, although we already know he has a thing for blondes! When Playmobil offered to send their new RC racer for us to check out, I instantly knew ...
Check out the new Pixelbook at Best Buy!
The reviewer has been compensated in the form of a Best Buy Gift Card and/or received the product/service at a reduced price or for free. I'm currently in the market for a new laptop for my 3rd grader. She has daily homework on the computer and sharing my laptop is no longer an option because both our workloads have increased. After a ton of research and comparing our options, my husband and I decided on the Google Pixelbook. My ...
Playmobile 1.2.3 Sets are Just Right for Little Hands!
Disclosure: Products provided for review. All opinions are my own. Today is the first day of Spring Break for NYC kids and the weather is dreary outside. It's a great day to kick off our 10-day break by just relaxing. I can't say we got to sleep in, but we are definitely being lazy today. As I'm writing this, my kids are actually getting along- who knows how long that will last for? But, they have good reason to be buddies today, especially ...
