Top Gifts For Soccer Players They Will Love

by Carolyn 40 Comments

If you are looking for great Gifts for Soccer Players and Fans, look no further!  All of my kids play soccer, so you can imagine we spend our weekends at multiple games.  That’s why this list of soccer gifts is a must for our holiday shopping, or any gift giving.

When you spend most of your days at the soccer field you know the best gift for your soccer lover is a soccer-themed gift. Whether it is a water bottle, soccer jewelry, new ball or agility ladder it will bring a smile to your soccer fanatic.

This list will make boys and girls shout for joy when they open their gift. I (soccer mom of three)have ordered a bunch for my own kids.

Large Size Gifts For Kids With A Low Price (under $50) – Make 2022 Christmas Have The Wow Factor

by Carolyn Leave a Comment

Do you have the dream of the kids running down Christmas morning and their eyes just round with amazement because of all the presents that Santa brought?

The first year I purchased all their gifts online I didn’t take into consideration the size of the gifts. I spent the day before Christmas trying to get things organized. It was then that I realized that even though I had spent what we had budgeted for Christmas, all our gifts for our 5-year-old twin boys were small.

by Carolyn 15 Comments

There is nothing better than a game your child enjoys playing by themselves. One Player Games that kids love can be a great life saver for busy moms. We’ve compiled some of our favorite choices to share with you to pick from for holiday gift giving or just because.

Whether you have an only child or lots of time with just one child in the waiting room while the other child is doing their sport or lessons, having single player games for your child to play can help the wait go quickly.

How To Save Money Shopping Online Using Groupon Coupons

by Carolyn 19 Comments

This is a sponsored post. All opinions are mine.

Are you one of the millions of consumers that makes most of your purchases online? I sure am. I do my best to avoid stores and love being able to do most of my gift shopping from my couch while watching a show. What makes this great is that now most stores offer free shipping.

If I make a purchase and I notice the store does not offer free shipping I go to Groupon Coupons for coupon codes. They have hundreds of stores that have coupon codes to save you money or offer free shipping on your orders.

Give Kids The Gift Of Experiences For The Holidays With Groupon

by Carolyn 29 Comments

This is a sponsored post. All opinions are mine.

My kids have way too many toys. It is getting ridiculous and they don’t even play with half of them. They are also getting a little bit older where they aren’t interested in as many toys. I am making the change this year to give the gift of experiences.

Just think…no clutter, no mess to clean up and something your child will remember. As you know by now, I love sharing fun tips I discover. Here’s another for you: A quick glance at the Groupon site leads to a ton of great gift ideas. The great thing is how much money I save with their discount versus purchasing the tickets through the normal ticket office.

Have too many toys? Hate the clutter? Give kids the gift of experiences. It was easy to find lots of option for kids or all ages, even teenagers. [Read more…]

Unique Gifts For The Whole Family At One Site

by Carolyn 24 Comments

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of NYFifth.com. All opinions are 100% mine.

Don’t you love when you can get most of the presents done in one shopping trip? Here is the best idea I have seen for this year’s Christmas gifts for the whole family. Personalized fleece pullovers from NYFifth Apparel !

Awesome gift idea for the whole family. I love when I can get everyone the same thing and knock out a bunch of gifts at one time. These personalized fleeces are perfect.

You can have each person’s initials embroidered onto them but I think it would be even more exciting and fun to come up with a family logo or crest. Everyone could have the same fun logo. You can design it on your computer and just send them the file. My husband has come up with this as an idea for us.

I am always needing a fleece for running around town and to the soccer fields. I live in my fleece and jeans during these soccer days.  It is a great price point for a personalized gift for everyone. They have a hooded option too for my boys since they must have a “cool” hoodie.

My husband would want the Nike Golf version. NYFifth has Nike Golf and Adidas too for those who like a certain brand and want to spend a little more money.

Awesome gift idea for the whole family. I love when I can get everyone the same thing and knock out a bunch of gifts at one time. These personalized fleeces are perfect.

You can purchase the blank apparel at wholesale prices and then add the customization (silk screening or embroidery) for a low competitive price.

There are so many ways to use these for more than Christmas gifts. They can be great for small businesses and sports teams to have as uniforms. My boy’s soccer team also does an indoor season during the winter and we have to come up with our own shirts. Having a cool emblem that we design will be awesome.

Like it. Pin it!

Awesome gift idea for the whole family. I love when I can get everyone the same thing and knock out a bunch of gifts at one time. These personalized fleeces are perfect.

5 Fun Family Thanksgiving Traditions

by Carolyn 34 Comments

Isn’t Thanksgiving the best holiday? No expectations other than sitting around visiting with friends and family. We have tried to make it all about bonding with family by starting some fun family Thanksgiving traditions.

Thanksgiving is my favorite especially because it isn’t about gifts. It is about being with the people we love and eating some delicious food. My mom and aunt cook us a delicious meal while the rest of the extended family play on the beach. The other nights during our weekend together, the rest of the families all take turns cooking.

Get everyone away from their separate iPads and TVs with these 5 fun family thanksgiving traditions. Make the day even more fun and memorable. I really love the first one for the kids. [Read more…]
