So tell me:
+ Not related, but what was one of your favorite gifts you ever received when you were a little one? That's a hard one, but one gift that will always standout in my mind is the stand microphone I got. When I was ripping the wrapping paper off, I though it was a metal detector (that was the year I was obsessed with my dad's metal detector) and I though it was my own mini one. Turned out it was a microphone, but that thing still got a lot of use!

You have no idea how much I wished (wish) I had that cupcake container when I was little. I remember a few very messy attempts to bring cupcakes to school, but just imagine how happy-making it would be to open you lunchbox and see that beautiful container!! And I'm going to buy those Mary's Mini Grahams for myself to stuff in my own stocking because they look yummmmmmy! Loved the category names too π
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine
For a graduation present, I'll send you a cupcake in a cupcake container π
Those cookies....I need more!
Hahaha! I tried to be clever there π Kinda hard with some!
Ellen @ My Uncommon Everyday
What a fun list! It's a great idea to help kids take responsibility for their health by getting them in the kitchen, etc. π
A gift that totally stands out to me is a Playmobil Victorian dollhouse. It was my "Santa gift" when I was four or five I think, and I LOVED it and played with it for years. Now it's packed up in my parents' basement (hopefully for when I have kids). I think every year someone mentions the story of my whole family scrambling to assemble it on Christmas Eve after I went to bed... it has a lot of pieces!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine
Totally agree!
Omg....I ALWAYS put Playmobile on my list and since it was SO expensive, I never got it π I was so jealous when I would go to friends houses and see they had a bunch of sets! However, I did get the big Calico Critter house and those sets (do you remember those)? They were BOMB and much cuter π
Ellen @ My Uncommon Everyday
Calico Critters were so cute!!
Linda @ Veganosity
Such a fun list of gift ideas. I totally believe in getting kids in the kitchen early. Everyone needs to know how to cook! π
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine
YES!!!!! If I were to have kids, they would be in the kitchen the moment they could stand up!
Natalie @ A Fit Philosophy
These are great ideas! I'm not a kid, but I'll still like these too π YUMM!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine
Since I'm still "kinda" a kid (well we all are right?) we can still have some of those fun goodies!
Michele @ paleorunningmomma
Really love some of these - like the aroma dough! It would be so hard to have to worry about gluten in everything for my kids, it's really cool that there are great products for people that have to, and that you brought so many together in one post π
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine
I think I want that aroma dough from santa π
Nadia's Healthy Kitchen
I love all of these gift suggestions! The medical alert bracelet and necklace are awesome ideas! Every kid with allergies should have one!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine
Yes! Aren't they great? For when you can't keep an eye on your little one, those can put parents a little more at ease!
