10 Stocking Stuffer Ideas for 1-Year Old Boys

categories: Christmas, Gift Guides, Gift Guides for Children, Holidays, Parenting

Shopping for 1-year olds can be really tough, but it's so fun when you get the right stuff! This list should come in handy for picking stocking stuffers that your 1-year old will love.

Shopping for 1-year olds can be so much fun. Everything is brand new to them! But it can still be tough because they haven’t quite grown into full-blown toys and there’s just so much out there to choose from.

My son was fortunate to be showered with gifts as a 1-year old and there were definite, obvious winners. Luckily, you don’t need to spend a lot for these little guys, which is especially the case when you’re looking to fill up their first little stocking! All of these gifts are inexpensive and small, so they’re perfect for little stocking stuffers!

20 Unbelievable Thomas the Train Gifts for Your Thomas-Obsessed Little Boy

categories: Gift Guides, Gift Guides for Children, Parenting

If you've got a little boy that loves Thomas the Train, then this is the list for you!

My son is obsessed with trains. And leading the pack of all-things-trains is, of course, the one and only Thomas the Train. I don’t know what it is, but something about that show has him completely mesmerized…so I’m always on the hunt for Thomas the Train gifts.

Luckily, from that little boy obsession has sprouted an entire industry of Thomas the Train accessories and toys. And while I’d love to say that my (not) crafty-self has discovered a way to make the equivalent of Thomas from scratch, the reality is that nothing makes me happier than discovering a new Thomas gift that sends my little guy over the moon. He’s just too cute!

So if you’re in need of a new Thomas friend or accessory for your little one, check out these winners in our house:

Looking for Easter basket ideas for your 2-year old boy?? These are the winners in our house!

It’s that time of year again! The Easter Bunny is on his way and more importantly, spring will soon be here! Easter can be a really fun day, especially with little ones. This will be the first year that my son will understand what’s going on (kind of), so I can’t wait to pull out all of the stops! We’re going to be decorating eggs ahead of time, hiding them, and of course opening up an Easter basket from the Easter Bunny!

In my excitement, I’ve already ordered the fixings for my son’s Easter basket this year and I know how tough that can be when you don’t want to spend a lot and you just don’t really know what a toddler would like. So here are some great Easter basket ideas for 2-year old boys! Happy Easter 🙂

Where to Find Cute Baby Boy Clothes

categories: Gift Guides, Gift Guides for Children, Parenting, Tips & Tricks

Shopping for baby boy clothes is easier than you think! There are so many fun options. This list includes all my favorites!

Whether you find out ahead of time or at the moment of delivery, hearing that you’re having a boy is an amazing feeling. You’re life’s about to change! Amidst the excitement though, you are bound to experience one tiny twinge of disappointment – no bows, glitter, tutus, or accessories. But it’s ok, you tell yourself, because having a boy will be more fun anyways. And trust me, IT IS. And best of all? You will be blown away by the cute baby boy clothes that you will come across if you look in the right places.

What you don’t know yet is that baby boy clothes can actually be way, way cuter than anything you can find for a girl! Not only do boys have their own adorable accessories, but they can pull off being dressed like mini versions of their dads, something little girls just can’t seem to do (or maybe it’s that yoga pants and an oversized T-shirt just don’t pack a punch ;-)).

Here are some of the cutest places to get baby boy clothes (and accessories) that you may not have thought of:

The 10 Best Board Books for Toddlers

categories: Activities & Crafts, Children's Books, Family Fun, Gift Guides, Gift Guides for Children, Parenting, TV, Movies & Books

I got lucky with a son who absolutely loves to read and look at books, but that love of reading doesn’t seem to translate into an appreciation for keeping the books in good condition. So, for the time being, we’re only using board books so that he can use them however he likes (and for the most part, they have proven to be indestructible). Luckily, it has turned out that board books aren’t that expensive either, so I’ve been able to get most of them in the $3 range on Amazon.

So if you’re looking for a good gift idea for your toddler or just need some new inspiration to get them using new words, try out these board books that have been big winners in our house:

As small home dwellers and frequent travelers, my husband and I have developed somewhat of an expertise for getting around with our baby. When you’re in close quarters with a little one, you basically have no choice but to be creative (or depend on the creativity of others), so we’ve come across some amazing space-saving baby products and gadgets that make life waaaaay easier.

Some of these were amazing gifts, some we discovered out of desperation, and some were just plain dumb luck. But ALL of them have proved to be essential and/or quite a relief in our day-to-day lives or travels.
