Whether you're shopping for a birthday, holiday, or just because, I’ve rounded up some of my favorite kids' gift ideas that are fun, thoughtful, and sure to spark joy.

Baby needs are so many and the options there are just so overwhelming and the opinions moms have vary drastically that you might be confused by who to listen to, so my list here is for the mom who is practical, plans to have more than one kid and thus, values good quality products over high-end brand names or/and cheap products to just make it through a single baby or a single occasion. I didn’t buy so many things the world recommends or suggests you MUST get that for me just ended up being an unnecessary gadget that takes space.
At the end of this, all I want to say is that if you feel overwhelmed, it’s really very normal and it IS overwhelming but believe it or not, in no time you’ll figure it out and your mom brain while might become a bit forgetful in so many things, it does feel like a new compartment in both your brain and heart open up to help pay attention to all the details and take them in.
You got it, mama!!

I have traveled with my daughter a ton- and I have learned what works and what doesn't. Get a backpack, buy a few small toys (I usually bring one toy for every 90 minutes of flight time). WRAP THE TOYS! Let them unwrap one every 90 minutes or so. Remember- you are allowed to utilize the iPad if it's not going your way. That does not make you a bad mom or parent. Traveling is hectic as it is, lets make it easier on ourselves! We typically let her choose one small blanket and a stuffed animal to bring. We also always pack her pillow case so she has something that smells like home. All of the items I have listed have truly made our flights and travel lives easier. Not just flights- also long car rides!
