The Gift of Cookies on Demand

Deb Savvy — Thu, 18 Dec 2008 02:31:45 +0000

The problem with sending someone cookies as a holiday gift is that they most likely already have some cookies. And some cake. And loads of other holiday treats. Consider the gift of cookies that will give back later. Frozen Dough – or what I like to think of as cookies on demand!

Each three pound tub makes approximately 4 dozen cookies. You can send a gift package of two tubs of dough and a scoop for $42.95. Choose from any of their seven delicious flavors. Chocolate chunk. White chocolate chunk. White chocolate macadamia nut. Oatmeal raisin. Peanut butter. Sugar. M&M. Yum!

And for extra family fun, consider the Cookie Play Dough.

Just as much fun and when you’re done playing – the cookies are as delicious as they are beautiful. A set of two (6 pounds of dough) sells for $44.95.

See all these tasty gift ideas and more at David’s Cookies. All their products are certified Kosher OU.

And, as usual, we’ve got the inside scoop on how to get the best possible deal.

Mix it Up

Deb Savvy — Fri, 19 Sep 2008 19:36:35 +0000

Mix it all up! At little miss matched it doesn’t match – and it never will. It’s not supposed to. From socks and gloves to bed linens, activewear and accessories. Socks and gloves are actually sold in sets of three coordinating yet non-matching pieces and are too fun for words.

I bought some gloves for Peanut not too long ago and much to my surprise when Little Guy saw them he went crazy. So I got him a set, too. About a month later he told me that he had lost of this ‘regular’ gloves. When I asked him what he did with the one remaining glove he said ‘it’s one of miss matches now. I wear it all the time!’ Mix it up at little miss matched where nothing matches and it’s not supposed to.

Bright colors, bold patterns and quality fabrics make for well coordinated and functional (and completely mismatched) gear for kids, teens, toddlers, babies and adults.

UPDATE AS OF 9/27/2008: This is hot off the presses! Our good friends at little miss matched have just added a brand new CLEARANCE OUTLET section to their site and they’re celebrating with a 50% off sale. Shop now because at these prices it’s all gonna be gone in a flash!

Fizz and Find

Deb Savvy — Fri, 25 Jul 2008 03:30:46 +0000

_____

I have my pal Peanut to thank for this one. She turned me on to the whole phenomenon of ‘Fizz and Find’ fun. Each contains one of a series of toys but you don’t know which one you’ve got until you ‘fizz’ it.

Like the Dragon Magic Egg – each one has a different collectible dragon inside. Drop the egg in water and watch it fizz away and reveal a secret dragon hidden inside. Each dragon emerges it’s fizzy shell in parts – put them together and you’ve got a new dragon. You can even mix and match parts from more than one dragon to create your own unique mythical creatures. There’s no way to tell from the outside of the package (or the egg) which dragon is inside, which adds to the fun even more. Peanut and her friends collect and trade their Fizz and Find toys, kind of like baseball cards. Each one sells for $5.95 which makes them great for stocking stuffers or a little something extra – just because.

In addition to the Dragon Eggs, there are several other Fizz ‘n Find series, including Mermaid Surprise Shells and Fairy Hearts.

A Best Bet Gift for the New Big Brother or Big Sister

Deb Savvy — Thu, 01 Nov 2007 21:09:22 +0000

When sending a gift for a new baby, it’s always a good idea to send something for the new big brother or big sister, too. Toddlers and younger kids are likely not to understand the showering of gifts for the new arrival and can be a bit jealous. And they might be just a little bit bored, too. That’s why I like to give a gift that will engage a child’s attention – something fun and consuming like puzzles.

Mom and Dad appreciate it too. With a new baby in the house they’ve got their hands full. Having a few new and interesting puzzles on hand can be an absolute lifesaver. Just enough of a diversion to buy a few minutes of quiet time to do something else.

Brilliant Baby Blanket

Deb Savvy — Sun, 30 Sep 2007 00:58:07 +0000

Now, this is one of the most ingeniously clever things that I’ve seen in a while. And such a simple idea. Yet positively brilliant. The Bahama Baby Blanket (from the oh so innovative Bahama Towel Company ) has patented sewn-in feet so you can place baby in a car seat or stroller without having to unwrap the blanket. Like I said, brilliant!

They also offer adorable Bahama Kids Hooded Towels and Bahama Kids Hooded Robes, so kids can get warm and toasty when they come out of the pool or bath. And their original designs for beach towels are equally ingenious. They include a sewn in pocket that prevents the towel from slipping off your lounge chair. Love that!

It’s Still The Perfect Toy

For Aspiring Musicians

I recently bought this trio of musical instruments for Little Guy’s third birthday. The saxophone, trumpet and clarinet in the Bontempi 3 piece combo are $14.99 at Kazoo Toys when purchased individually; save $1.50 on each musical instrument when you purchase all three as I just did. Little Guy is well on his way to becoming a one man band!

Hint: Their musical toys department does not seem to link to everything they actually stock. I found more options by using their search box.

Unleashing Creativity

I first learned about this site from Becky and some of her fellow teachers. Dick Blick Art Materials, one of the largest suppliers in the nation, has been supplying artists and teachers with high quality art supplies since 1911. The prices are excellent and the selection of products is overwhelming to say the least. They’ve got everything imaginable for kids’ art projects to the highest quality supplies for serious artistes.

This is a great place for children’s gifts – paint, paper and a tabletop easel makes for a much more interesting gift than a video game.
