My Top 5 Favorites for December 2022
Starting a new series where I share my top 5 favorites from the month. These can be toys, products, clothes, furniture, or really anything I’ve been loving for Mackenzie or myself over the past month. 1. Camera for kids– Mackenzie got this for Hanukkah & she absolutely loves it! She can take real pictures & I can upload them to my computer with an SD card. It’s actually adorable to have photos taken by my 2.5 year old. This camera comes with way more like video & games, but she doesn’t know that yet, so she’s only used it to take pictures so far. Highly recommend this as a gift…

Taste Safe Sensory Table Ideas for Your Child
I finally got my hands on an ikea sensory table and knew I wanted to start creating sensory bins for Mackenzie to play with. You don’t need a sensory table to do sensory bins, you just need a bin or a bowl! Mackenzie is someone who likes to put things in her mouth, so I knew I wanted to create taste safe sensory bins so she could enjoy & safely play with different textures & things. I decided to try out 5 taste safe sensory bins with Mackenzie over the past two weeks. They’re super simple to put together: 1. Cheerio Sand: It’s super easy to make this cheerio sand!…
