    December 23, 2015 - By

Do you need a little festive decorating touch for your home? Well, luckily Teleflora Peanuts bouquets can help you with that. I am a fan of flowers.

    A Collection of Snoopy and Peanuts Gift Ideas

    December 12, 2015 - By 

      Wouldn’t it be fun to get a collection of Peanuts gifts for someone who loved the Peanuts movie? These Peanuts gift ideas might help you if you have someone like that in your life.   Did you grow up with Snoopy and Peanuts like I did? Can you hear Charlie Brown’s teacher in your head every time someone drones on and on about a topic you don’t really care about? HEHE. Yes, me too. I remember many Christmases as we were growing up, snuggled on the couch watching Christmas movies such as a Charlie Brown Christmas. I also still…

    Last Minute Teacher Gifts #MeaningfulGifts

    December 11, 2015 - By 

    Who says last minute gifts and teacher presents can’t also be meaningful gifts? With World Vision Canada’s gift catalogue, last minute shoppers can still finish their shopping easily. Last year we gifted several items from the World Vision Canada holiday gift catalogue. We opted to give these impactful holiday gifts to friends and family members, and we found most of our teacher gifts there too. It’s a great solution to the question – what do I get for someone who doesn’t really need anything? Charitable gifts from the catalogue are straight from the heart and that matters more than ever…

    November 26, 2015 - By 

    It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas is on the way soon. So it’s time to get thinking about presents and putting up your tree and wrapping too. This time of year I love handy printables, so I love to share some with my readers too. I thought you might enjoy these cute printable Christmas gift tags as much as I do. It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas here in Ontario. That means shopping has started and gifts are being readied. Our shopping lists are slowly being whittled away at. Of course World Vision helped a lot…

    Inside Out Movie – Add This to Your Christmas List Now #TMMGG2015

    November 19, 2015 - By 

    Since my one daughter’s play ended, we’ve been getting back to family movie night here. That means we’ve had some enjoyable evenings snuggling together, watching highly amusing and sometimes really moving movies. One week ago we watched Max, which I highly recommend for anyone over 7 or 8. It was a great show about dogs used in war. This past weekend we watched Inside Out, which we all loved. Inside Out is a comical and really witty romp through one little girl’s mind. Do you ever wonder what’s going on in someone’s mind? Disney-Pixar’s “Inside Out” takes an exciting and…

    PERFECT Teen or Tween Gifts – Fashion Angels Charm Mashup and Work In Progress Natural Facial Care – #TMMGG2015

    November 15, 2015 - By 

    Fashion Angels Charm Mashup is a toy I would have gone nuts for as a tween or teen girl. I loved to craft and make things just like my girls do. So, I figured this would be a lot of fun but I was surprised it made me feel like a kid again too. Usually bead kits drive me a bit batty as a parent because the beads can wind up tracked all over the house, but we have learned a few tricks from the kid’s crafting experiments here over the years and I quickly just made sure ALL the…

    Chrono Bomb Game is the Perfect Present for Your Spy In Training #TMMGG2015

    November 12, 2015 - By 

    I spied the Chrono Bomb game this past summer at a toy show in New York City and it screamed Ainsley’s name to me as I walked by, so I struck up a conversation with the person representing Patch Products and told her all about this girl of mine. Back when Ainsley was about 8 and we were living in our old house, she would grab string, or yarn from the closet and string it all over her room creating an elaborate web of lasers so that she had to limbo and contort her body just to get into the…

    Adorable Newborn Tekno Puppy is a Gift Everyone Will Love #TMMGG2015

    November 6, 2015 - By 

    Adorable Newborn Tekno Puppy is the cutest gift that has arrived here so far this year. Tekno Puppy will be a huge hit this holiday season with any child you choose to give this too. If I were a child again, this Newborn Tekno Puppy would top my Christmas wish list. As it is it will top my list of toys that I give, especially for little girls between ages 5 and 13. The suggested age range for Newborn Tekno Puppy is 3 and up. But together my kids and I both discussed this and felt like the age range is…

    Tony Hawk Circuit Boards For Tweens by Hexbug – #TMMGG2015 #giveaways

    October 27, 2015 - By 

    Of all the people on your list this year, the tweens and teenagers can be some of the hardest to buy for. Oh sure there’s always gift cards. Kids like to spend those after they hit double digits. But if you are like me you still love to have something under the tree for them to open also. Gadgets? Sure, why not. But there are only so many electronics you can give. Kids, of all ages, still like something to unwrap and play with on occasion. So happy to share that HexBug has you covered this year for all the…
