Toddler Birthday Party Ideas

Bubbles is turning two this month and I can’t believe it. It honestly seems like the other day that she fit in the nook of my arm; now when I pick her up and we’re eye-to-eye, her toes dangle against my knees. Every day she surprises us with a new phrase. activity, item, or look. This month in the Turning 2 Toddler Birthday Celebration I’ll be sharing a lot of great things that she loves that I think other toddlers will enjoy.

Before the month gets too far away from me I’m trying to decide on a birthday theme for her party. Pocoyo is favorite character but the merchandise for it is almost non-existent and I haven’t been able to find any party supplies. So we’re looking at other options. She takes after her Mama and is a little Disney girl which makes something Disney a top choice. She loves Minnie Mouse, the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse show, Tinker Bell, and the princesses (she can name them all, with Rapunzel and Ariel being two of her favorites). Here are some of the cute party ideas for a Minnie Mouse party I’ve found so far. Continue reading »

New Year’s Eve for Kids

New Year's Eve Ideas for Kids or Noon Year's Eve for Kids

Kids love opportunities to celebrate – and they love excuses to stay up late even more! New Year’s Eve addresses both of those joys. But staying up until midnight or later can be rough on (or impossible for) some kids and sometimes the thought of dealing with tomorrow’s crankiness from lack of sleep can be a little daunting for parents. It may make more sense for your family to have a Noon Year’s Eve party instead of the traditional New Year’s Eve party. Whichever route you decide to take, here are some fun party ideas for kids!

Are you an Avengers fan?

Our family is a group of huge Marvel movie fans. We first fell in love with Iron Man a few years ago, and since then each installment of individual Avengers characters has lured us in more and more. So it should be no surprise that the members of our household are all anxiously counting the days until next week’s release of The Avengers. All of the Avengers together in one huge blockbuster? It doesn’t get much better than that!

Marvel's The Avengers Graphic Novel #MarvelAvengersWMT

Both A1 and A2, as well as my husband and I, all had the chance to see The Avengers in the theater so we know it’s an amazing film. Leaving the theater I remember both my husband and I commenting about how we couldn’t wait until it came out on DVD so that we could add it to our home library. So that there was no chance on missing out, we were sure to pre-order a copy. If you haven’t pre-ordered yours yet, it’s not too late! Be sure to order from Walmart so you can get the exclusive Avengers Blu-Ray/DVD/Graphic Novel combo pack for $24.96! Only 100,000 of the graphic novels were printed so it makes for a great collectible. There are over 100 pages in it, as well. We have a copy of it and the story, colors, and quality are all great.

I don’t know how I missed it, but yesterday was Winnie the Pooh Day! We are big Pooh fans here, including all his friends in the Hundred Acre Wood. Baby C. adores him, too; she has a stuffed Pooh that she likes to snuggle. To celebrate his big day, here are a few of my favorite fun Pooh party ideas, foods, and printables.
