I recently came across LegacyLearning  shop through Groopdealz site and quickly became a fan. I found 2 really great activities.They have best learning activities I have seen and make wanting to learn fun for kids. The first thing got from Groopdealz from Leagacy Learning was

Sand Writing – Complete Activity Set & Color & Shape Sorting Activity Set

Colors, counting, patterns, and fine-motor development & manipulative activity set, your child will be able to create and build upon letter and number recognition skills, all while developing initial writing techniques

Included:
(1) Ice cube sorting tray
(14) Foam stickers of varying color and shape – affixed
(28) additional foam stickers for sorting, with matching colors and shapes

We never did ice tray activity before but this was great and since the foam stickers were ocean creations it went well the sand as talked about beach, animals live in ocean and building sandcastles. This great activity because are weather here is anything of nice and made for indoor beach activities we did.

Pinterest Found & Made{ Zucchini Pizza Bites}


TBT Post: You should make

 

I was recently on Pinterest,LOVE that site and came across yummy eat. I’m always wanting new things out or some cases in different way.I love Zucchini even though hadn’t had it in awhile when saw these bites had try them out! I think having my son try new things is important (or in this case disguising his fav food pizza) ;] We do disgusing w/ other food and we find doing that helps w/ getting vegetables in w/out knowing.

While,thought i was slick he quickly caught on so wouldn’t eat them lol. Hey, i tried! They did however came out awesome and will making these again

I love them. They taste good and are a great snack but more importantly, they’re SO EASY.

If you have any zucchini sitting around, this is a great recipe.

P.S When i was Pinterest last night i came Zucchini Pizza Boat.Yeah, you know what…

Photo Editing For Kids- Typic Kids


Typic Kids is a photo app that lets kids  get started with the basics of photo editing.How cool?! My son would love this because loves to take photos.

image

All they do is take  a photo or choose one from the camera. Then kids can select filters, set a fun background, and add colored text and  stickers. All.  the effects are all geared toward kid. I think kids would love this app,so much options

image

When you finish editing a photo, the app invites you to share it with the world via email, Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram. Typic Kids cautions “Parents Only!” How much fun would kids have getting creative with Typic Kids. I recommend Typic Kids as a fun app where kids can explore a bunch of cool, age-appropriate  to enhance and embellish the pictures they take.

Download Typic Kids photo editing app on iTunes for $1.99.

Bring It Inside


Bring it Inside! The original post http://wp.me/p2hkkD-yR about brining snow indoors. Have you ever tried doing this? I promise it not scary to do but loads of fun for the kids make sure use a durable container I used a tin pan or plastic bin would work to good. I made sure we used this just in the kitchen area so easy clean up in case of spills instead of carpet

Great sensory play in the Winter months. Have you ever brought snow indoors for some snowy play?

Here’s some other posts on playing with snow inside …

Back to Basics-Natural ‘Beauty’ Facial Scrubs & Spa’s-At-Home


At home and homemade beauty

 

Sometimes best isn’t always the best and the same being said to skin care.I’ve done it,spend 5 bucks or up on product that doesn’t do much or makes my skin worse.Anyone have that happen? It does seem though when do the Spa facials that for some reason (and maybe just be me), your skin looks/feel amazing.I only did Spa thing once before having a child and was wonderful gift that got. I’m not saying anything bad about face products out their because there are some really good ones,i just love exploring great facials that you can make at home. What awesome way to get Spa-at-home that gets same as the look/feel like a spa or product,but saves $$$?!

But they also have to simple/easy and great ones.I think founds ones that are really good and had to share.

~~~~~~~~Now onto some wonderful scrubs~~~~~~~~~

White Sugar Scrub-Great all skin types…

Take Back The Table with Less Mess Ezpz Happy Mat


ezpz-logo

A neat product I came across unlike another mat I’ve seen in a store-bought or have now called EzPz Fun Less Mess Happy Mat It’s a Placement + Plate in one

6562cc550e0a43fdbc9c24e68498407e

At first glance the mat looks like any placemat , or divided plate for kids, but it is SO much more better then that! First off, it’s made from nontoxic, BPA free silicone that is:

Foodsafe

Dishwasher safe

Nontoxic

Oven safe

Microwavable

Lime_3__91633_1422500578_1280_800

“WHAT?!” 

It’s amazing,right?! It STICKS to the table. Not like those cheap-o suction cups you’ve all used(me), but it really, really sticks and stays in palce! Trust me, this is one product  you need in your house if you have little one’s!

By now you agree with me that the EzPz Fun Less Mess Happy Mat is by far the best placemat and plate on the market for kids; however, I think it’s SO much more. Kids will love the “smiley face”  and the bright colors. Those things are appealing to kids…but for me, I LOVE that these are:

 individual wells that help make sure your kiddo is getting a balanced meal

the deep edges, perfect for messier meals

suction to help keep the mat in place

sturdiness of the dish

The Less Mess Happy Mat comes in four color options: pink, cyan, lime, and watermelon.

Diggin: Wobble Deck: The Electronic Balance Board


I came across Diggin: Wobble Deck along other great toys after reading blog  InspiredTreeHouse  BEST TOYS AND PRODUCTS FOR KIDS post,you can read Here.

This was helpful because it reposted around Holiday time an give me good ideas I was at loss on what to get honestly and since my son receives OT and speech therapy I like get toys that help at home in those areas. It also be helpful on birthday gifts that I will be using again

img-thing

  helps work on their balance and inner core strength makes funny sounds and games.

There are multiple modes to make playtime more challenging:

Freestyle – Make your own music to three background beats

Wobble Mania – Match colors, numbers and sounds

Wobble Match – Remember and match instructions

10372226_10204753315866126_1756461699935010029_n

It’s not easy to use and kids might have to use wall or hands to hold on to.This better used outside or on hard surface but with *Adult Supervision*

The sound effects, which range from the guitar, drums, toot, crash, and bring that  kept my son laughing. And such great toy for working to stimulate the Vestibular system — the control center of the body’s balance and movement. The idea is to keep your balance while tilting in different directions to create a new noise.Wobble Deck also supports good fitness habits by integrating active time into playtime. My son enjoys the first setting: Freestyle – Make your own music to three background beats. It’s not only awesome for the vestibular but cognitive workout!

Changing modes on the Diggin: Wobble Deck:

When you change from Free-style to Wobble Mania and if you succeed you go to the next level.  If you make one mistake you do not move on.  I like this feature a lot for challenge and it will continued interest them in this game.
