Simplicity and Connection Through Family Gift Making

Simplicity and Connection Through Family Gift Making
Holidays with children are so magical but can also be hard if we don’t remember to stay calm and present. With family, traveling, cooking, decorating, spending money and pressure to create good memories for your kids, it’s no wonder parents everywhere stress at the thought of the winter season approaching. One way to slow down and appreciate the holidays is to make your own presents. Not only do you save money, but homemade gifts are also more meaningful and you can spend quality time with your kids while making them!  

These water felted soaps  from the blog Beckyrose Designs are a beautiful gift for anyone. Plus there are no needles involved so it’s a perfect project for little fingers.
 


Finger paints are a super easy gift for kids. Check them out on Tiffany's blog, Easie Peasie.  Best of all, you know all the ingredients are safe for your little one.

Testimonials

This is exactly what I was looking for. It’s light weight, basic, and made of a rain coat type material. I plan to use this in the pool this summer for my 10 month old when juggling my other two.

Perfect baby carrier for us. It's lightweight but still supportive. It has a nice, good look to it. It's also practically made and the zipper/pocket storage is great. Also, I can take this anywhere with us because it's compact.
