Frozen Party Kit

A product was given for review for my honest opinion. No other compensation was given.

I only have one little girl so when her birthday comes around, I want to make it so fun and special for her!

Usually I struggle to come up with birthday party ideas, but this year I am super excited for her birthday to come in March because she will be ecstatic to see her birthday party decorated with FROZEN decorations!!! I can't wait to see the look on her face when she sees the Frozen plates, cups, napkins, and coordinating decor that comes with the Frozen Ultimate Kit from Wholesale Party Supplies!

I love that making her birthday special doesn't have to be stressful because with this kit I get it all in one nice box!! I just open up, decorate and am done! No running around to different places, no stressing out about availability of products and no leaving the house! It comes right to me and everything I need is included!

There is such a great variety of products included in this kit. I love that most of it has a character on it from the movie but not all of it does like the star balloons, streamers and centerpiece. They are just silver and blue. This kit even includes candles...something I always forget to have on hand!

The Kit Includes:

• 8 Frozen Cake Plates
• 8 Frozen Luncheon Plates
• 8 Frozen 9oz Cups
• 16 Frozen Beverage Napkins
• 16 Frozen Luncheon Napkins
• 8 Forks/Spoons/Knives
• 1 Frozen Table Cover

• 1 Silver Foil Star Cascade Centerpiece
• 2 Silver Star Balloons
• 2 Blue Star Balloons
• 1 White Curling Ribbon
• 1 Olaf 41" Balloon
• 2 Frozen Holographic 18" Balloons

Your little girl will feel just like the queen of Arendelle when you decorate her party with this Frozen Ultimate Kit!  This kit is great because it has all of the decorations that you could possibly want to create a successful Frozen-themed princess party.

My Son Will Celebrate His Birthday With an Inspired Inceptions Personalized Shirt!

I can't believe it but my son's three year birthday is coming up in October!!! Where has the time again! It seems only yesterday that I became a first time mother of this beautiful, rambunctious baby boy!

This year, he wanted a train/Thomas the Train birthday party so when Amy from Inspired Inceptions reached out to have her Etsy Shop featured, I immediately started searching to see if she had any Thomas birthday shirts for my son to wear at his birthday party! And SHE DID!!!

Amy is a full time wife, mom, friend, and crafter. She started her business of making heat press shirts after having her son Nolan. Now she has turned it into a business that she LOVES!! She loves coming up with new ideas and working with customers to create a personalized shirt just for them. If you have an idea for a shirt but don't see it on her site, don't hesitate to ask and I bet she can make it!! And best of all, there is NO extra charge for custom designs!

Children's shirts start off $17.99. She can do long sleeves and colored shirts but they are an additional charge.

The minute my son saw his super cute Thomas the Train with Birthday Number T-shirt, he was jumping up and down with excitement! I loved that we got to personalize the shirt with his name and 3 for how old he will be at his birthday party!

The shirt is high quality and soft material and the picture seems to be really stuck on there and not going to peel off or fade! The shirt is a little big (it is a 3T) on my son but I am not surprised because he is such a tiny guy! (He finally just grew out of some 18 months clothes and he will be THREE!)

I can't wait to show you all his upcoming birthday pictures with him wearing this super cute shirt!

If you are looking for a personalized shirt of any design, theme or sport, you have got to check out Inspired Inceptions Etsy Shop. If she doesn't have it pictured, she will try her best to make it!!! Best of all, you will be supporting and promoting a mom business and those are the best businesses (in my opinion!) :)

Buy It: You can purchase the Thomas the Tank T-shirt for $17.99 from the Inspired Inceptions Etsy Shop.

I really wanted to get him a puzzle for his birthday so he can keep working on his coordination (and patience!!) and what better than a puzzle with his OWN name on it! It not only helps learn how to do puzzles but it also helps him learn his name and letter combinations!

How Do Dinosaurs Eat Their Food Book Review and Giveaway

One of my favorite book websites to feature and share with you is Little One Books. (see my previous review on Little One Books here.)

They specialize in quality books, music, and video, for children birth through age five, and have personally reviewed and selected each and every item in their store.

At Little One Books, they match each product to what they believe is the youngest appropriate age group. However, their carefully selected items can and will be used for many years to come. As children develop they often find pleasure in revisiting illustrations from old favorites, and eventually learning to read them on their own.

I generously received the book, How Do Dinosaurs Eat Their Food. 

How does a dinosaur eat all his food? Does he burp, does he belch, or make noises quite rude? Does he pick at his cereal, throw down his cup, hoping to make someone else pick it up? Just like kids, dinosaurs have a difficult time learning to behave at the table. However, with a little help from Mom and Dad, these young dinosaurs eat all before them with smiles and goodwill.

I Believe in You Book Review and Giveaway

About the Book: 

Inspired by her own four children, Marianne wrote I Believe In You because we all want to know we have someone who truly believes in us, no matter what life is dishing out.

Your job of growing up
takes hard work, I know,
but each day is an adventure.
Each problem helps you grow.

Growing up can be a topsy-turvy journey from schoolwork, friendships, fitting in, and standing out. When children of any age know that they have a fan, they feel more confident to problem sole, endure, and succeed.

Whether it’s sunny or stormy,
whether you’re happy or blue,
I’m here to say, without a doubt,
That I believe in you!


I Believe in You encourages kids to look within to find they have all they need to succeed—and to know they always have someone cheering them on.

Rock n Rollas Review and Giveaway

At any skill level, a kid will have fun getting active with Diggin Active products. Since 2006, they have been creating innovative products in all sports categories, selling at retailers around the world, and winning numerous industry awards.

Diggin is the innovation leader for kid sports and active gear. Their full line of kids’ sports products combines great design, great performance, great value, and great fun.

Their philosophy is to provide products that replace the frustration and fear of learning sports with success and enjoyment so kids will develop a lifelong love of sports and active play.

And what is more fun than that!

They have just launched a new item. The new item is called the Rock n Rollas.

Rock n Rollas™ are actually 2 toys in one - a soft rocker, or add wheels to transform to a ride-on. The comfy and cuddly characters are made of a highly durable inflatable, perfect for first time riders. In “rolla” mode, the 360 degree castor wheels allow the child use their feet to ride in any direction they want to go. The soft cushioned animals are a compact, furniture friendly addition to any home. With soft materials, rounded edges and cute characters, children will feel comfortable and safe riding these toys. Great designs available in Busy Bee, Moo Cow or Doggy. Ages 12 months+.

My Opinion

I am always on the lookout for fun and new toys for my little (and very active) guy and I was instantly drawn to the Diggin Active website and their amazing selection of toys and games for all ages! They all look so fun and, best of all, they get children outside playing sports and games and getting exercise! That is so important these days when so many children sit inside and instead of playing sports, games, and make believe are watching TV, movies and playing video games!

When I saw their new product, the Rock-n-Rolla, I knew this toy would be so much fun and will span a couple of years because it has TWO toys in ONE! I love a toy that can be used for a long time! :)

I LOVED the characters they offered but chose the cow because my son LOVES farm animals!

This toy is great for children once they can hold on and sit up as their first rocker. It then transforms once they outgrow rocking to a ride-on! This is actually one ride-on where my son can touch the ground with his short little legs!

I recommend the Rock-n-Rolla for all young children! You will love that it is 2 toys in 1 and will entertain your children for years as it grows with them!


Buy It: You can purchase the Rock-n-Rolla for $69.99 on the Diggin Active website.

Win It: Diggin Active is generously offering (1) Rock-n-Rolla to a lucky winner!
