Finding Gifts For Those Long Distance Birthdays Thanks to Wicked Uncle

August 1, 2019 by Ashley Leave a Comment

This is a sponsored post in which I was compensated in product from Wicked Uncle for my honest opinion of their service and products.

As a parent I know that it isn’t always feasible to make it to everyone’s birthday parties, but I often feel bad when I am unable to show up especially if it is for close family or friends. That is where Wicked Uncle comes into play. They offer high quality gifts that are easy to navigate on their website so that you can find the best gift for that someone who resides a long distance away from you.

When shopping at Wicked Uncle you have the option to gift wrap the items that you are purchasing. You can choose to have one wrapped or multiple items. They allow you to select your paper choice for each item and also allow you to label who each package is for. This is a great feature if you are sending multiple gifts to one address, but they are for multiple people.

I chose to use the alphabet wrapping paper for my son because he is obsessed with animals and we are working on letter recognition right now. It wasn’t any special occasion so I told my son that these gifts were something special for him from his new baby brother that willing be joining us in November.

He was just thrilled to get something special while so much is changing here in the home. When I was picking out toys I looked at products under both the 3 year old boy and the 4 year old boy categories for ideas on what to get him since he is 3 1/2 years old right now. I think I did a pretty good job because he instantly fell in love with all 3 items I got for him.

I have a feeling that I will be using Wicked Uncle’s services to get gifts to a few of my nephews that live far away. We generally can’t make it to their birthday parties due to the distance and timing of their parties so this will give me a chance to get gifts to them without worrying about mailing them after I purchase them.

Holiday Gift Guide for Big Kids 2018 Edition

November 30, 2018 by Ashley Leave a Comment

This is a sponsored post and these opinions and gift suggestions are all my own.

 

Stomp Rocket

Gather your kids because these toys will be ones that all the kids will be fighting over! There are a ton of different Stomp Rocket toys out there, but I have found two that perfect gifts for both the big and the little kids. The Jr. Glow Rocket is perfect for your younger children 3+ that want to join in on the fun with their big brothers and sisters. While the 3 Stunt Planes Stomp Rocket is perfect for the bigger kids. Both of these packages come with multiple rockets so the kids will be able to each have a turn before having to go retrieve their rockets. Why not get them a gift that can be used later in the year. This will allow them to have a new toy on hand when the weather gets nice and they want to run around in the warm sunlight.

 

My Buddy Towel

Getting kids a variety of different items for Christmas is always fun and one thing I do like to add into the bunch is clothes, but getting clothes isn’t always fun; so why not have a little fun by getting your kids the My Buddy Towel? This towel is made to look like a cute character and can be put on like a pair of pajamas with a zipper. This means it is that much easier to dry your little one and wrangle that squirmy child after their bath or shower. It also means that you will have less naked children running around the house after bath time. The fun characters help make children want to put on their towel after bath time as they can get in a little pretend play. This is a game changer for us because my son doesn’t understand how to walk around with a towel wrapped around him, instead I can zip him in and let him run around for a minute drying off before I get him into his diaper and dry clothes.

Modarri The Ultimate Toy Car Kit

If you have a kid that loves to tinker and loves cars then you will want to consider getting them the Modarri Ultimate Toy Car Kit. This toy is a fun kit that will be allowing your child to build their own cars. They can even take them apart and rebuild them without a fear of breaking their toy. The best part as an adult is the fact that these toys have a Lifetime guarantee which means if any piece breaks Modarri will replace it at no cost to you! This really means that as long as the pieces don’t go missing you will have a toy that could last a lifetime. You child will flourish and blossom with this toy that helps to promote creativity and allows kids to be innovative.

JP Doodles Trucker Hat

Kids love getting toys, but don’t let them fool you. They often love getting accessories as well. Clothes may not be very exciting, but why not get them a fun JP Doodles Trucker Hat for the holidays? It may not be practical for the winter months, but it will be a great item for the warmer months coming next year. JP Doodles has a wide variety of hats for boys, girls, little kids, big kids, and adults. You can select the best theme and color for each child you are shopping for. We went with their dinosaur ROARR hat because Raiden is currently obsessed with dinosaurs so it makes a great gift. It will also hopefully help him to be more interested in wearing a hat next summer!
