3 Original Gift Ideas This Summer


There is no better feeling in the world than seeing someone’s smile after receiving a gift from you, whether it is a mother, a friend or a close relative. Sometimes, when you want to make someone feel appreciated, you don't even have to say anything. All you need to do is look for a nice present and surprise them when they least expect it. Since you’re making an effort to find a nice present for them, it might be a good idea to pick an original gift. For example, not a lot of people are used to getting books as a present these days although there are still a lot of bookworms out there. As long as you are careful to pick something that matches their interest and personal style, you are guaranteed to make their day.

Moreover, you don't even have to invest a lot of money in the present, as small gifts tend to be a lot more meaningful. Make sure to listen carefully to them or try to make a connection to any future events in their life if you don't know where to start.

Useful Gifts

An electric toothbrush, a phone charger, and a wallet are simple items that people use on a daily basis but don’t think of upgrading regularly. This could be your chance to pick a useful gift that will remind them of you each time they use it. Seeing that these are relatively inexpensive gifts, you don’t have to worry about breaking the bank. Be sure to wrap them in a nice wrapping paper and be ready to see their precious smile. You don't even have to expect something in return, because making a gift is often better than receiving one.

Stylish Items


Summer is the perfect opportunity to update your wardrobe, no matter your age. Since everyone is looking for ways to make their outfits more stylish, you could facilitate this process for them by purchasing a nice accessory. If a loved one has a birthday or special occasion in the summer, for example, childrens earrings are a suitable summer present. They are easy to pick, and they make a nice impression. Stylish people can also accessorize their outfits with the help of a pair of sunglasses, a nice hat, a simple belt or even a watch. You need to consider their lifestyle when picking the present just to make sure that they will take full advantage of it.

Edible Goodies

Who doesn’t like receiving a box of chocolates when they are feeling down? The same principle can be considered when picking a gift for a foodie. Although food baskets could be a nice present idea, they tend to be a bit pricey. Instead, you could purchase a few of their favorite snacks and satisfy their sweet craving. However, if you’re a good cook, you could prepare a nice treat for them. They will definitely appreciate your hard work as everyone knows that baking a cake from scratch is not an easy task. If not, there is a variety of choices of the market, all of them looking like the best gift idea. Nonetheless, you should pick something fresh and light as no one feels like eating creamy desserts during summer.

These are just a few gift ideas that are suitable for summer. As long as the gesture comes from the heart, it will definitely be appreciated.

Last week we tried out the fizzing sidewalk chalk- click here to read that review. This week it is liquid chalk spray.  They are a bit similar but yet different.  Here is how to make it: Supplies: 1 tsp. washable tempura paint 1 cup of hot water 1/2 cup of cornstarch squirt of dishwashing liquid 1 squirt bottle- I found them at the dollar store 1.  Add cornstarch to one cup of hot water whisking to mix so that there are no clumps. 2.  Add one teaspoon of washable tempura paint and a quirt of dishwashing liquid.  Mix well. 3.  Pour it into your squirt bottles and shake well. 4.  Go have fun!!!   This kept my daughters attention much longer the the fizzy chalk last week.  I also think this was easier to work with and just more fun in general.  I love seeing the chalk wet but then to see it dry.  I think it dried darker so it was fun to see the changes.  :)  Ready, Set, Go!  Have some fun!

Toddler Rainbow Craft for St. Patricks Day

St. Patrick's day is March 17th so its approaching quickly.  I have a few ideas on art and food projects that i want to do with the kiddos.  Hopefully I will have enough time to complete them and share them with you.   This was a super easy one for those little hands.  I cut the stripes of colored paper but if you are working with a preschooler or school aged child then they can practice cutting.  The two toddler boys here only had to glue the pieces on their piece of paper.  EASY, but they enjoyed it!  :)  It sure has brightened my kitchen with them hanging on the fridge!  :)   I also talked more about the Promise God gave us with the rainbow since I know that history a whole lot better then the history of the Irish Holiday!
