Hey friends,
Happy Friday!
I am a little late with this post today and I did not post on Tuesday, I am sorry but it has been a crazy week (in a positive way!!). The kids were all home from school so we had some activities planned.
Can you believe that we are past the middle of August? Soon Aurora will start first grade, I am very happy and curious to see how she is going to do, but also sad because I feel like she is growing so fast and time is flying without me even noticing it! And the worst thing is that we are almost at the end of Summer and I still want to do so much…
Today I will go on with the post I started last week about Amazon and all the treasures I got in the last few months, are you ready? Let`s go:
1-MELISSA AND DOUG SAND ICECREAM PLAY SET ($ 11.99):
I got these recently and my kids just played with them in the sand once (they played a lot at home, with no sand, pretending to serve ice cream!). But they are amazing, when you scoop the sand on top of the cone, it really has an icecream shape!
2-SOFT BACKPACK COOLER ($ 49.99):
I got this as a present for my husband a while ago and we have used it so much! It is very useful for short trips, we use it every time we go to the beach or for day trips. It doesn`t look very big, but it holds a lot of stuff and it is nice because it is a backpack so you don`t have to carry a bag around.
3-TEA BAG HOLDER ($ 15.99):
This little box was such a good buy! I really like it and I ask myself why I took so long to realize that I needed something to organize the tea bags in the kitchen cabinets! Before getting it, I had the tea carton boxes piled in the cabinets, which was not nice to see and not really easy and quick, because if I needed a tea in a box in the back, I had to take all the boxes out. This little box keeps all the bags nice and organized and since it is transparent I can see inside and pick what I want.
4-GIRL RAIN BOOTS ($ 22.99):
I got these recently because Aurora had a Summer camp in a farm and she had to go in the mud. So I picked these pink, sparkly boots which light up when she walks. Needless to say, she was very excited when she saw them. They are very cute and it looks like they are pretty sturdy, but they are still almost new, I will keep you updated.
5-SERUM FROM THE ORDINARY ($ 21.66):
I got a couple of these serums on Amazon lately and I have to say that I like them, especially because they are pretty cheap and lightweight on the skin. They are not too oily and dry fast, which is important if you don`t have much time like me, especially in the morning. This brand is always pretty cheap because the packaging is very essential.
6-BENTO BOX ($ 12.99):
Aurora loves this bento box because it is all pink. The only thing that I have to say is that it is a little big and fits just right in her lunchbox, but other than that, it is great: it keeps the food divided and goes in the dishwasher, which is essential for me. We had a bento box before this that was not dishwasher safe and it was a pain. It ended in the dishwasher a couple times and the plastic broke so I had to throw it away because it did not close tight and the food would leak.
These were my six extra products from Amazon. Maybe you already have some of these, or have something similar that you like, let me know!!
I hope you have a great weekend, now I am going to plan our indoor activities because it is going to rain here (I hate it when it rains and we can`t spend time outside, it looks like a waste of time to me, but hopefully I will find something fun to do with the kids!).
I will meet you here next week!
