Kiddo is due late next month, and we have a few people that have asked us if we still need things and want to sent us things. All I can think of is asking them to contribute to a college fund😵‍💫, but that feels a little crass asking for money.

What's the going rate on children's birthday gifts? We've been invited to a few parties and not sure of the expected gift spend is?

I am thinking about getting my son a present ‘from baby’ for when they first meet Does anyone have any suggestions on what I could get for him? Can’t be to big as would probably pack it in my hospital bag, nothing to expensive, just a little something that he could keep 😊

I’ve been on a desperate search trying to find this stuffy to buy an extra or 2. My 17m girl recently got attached to this one about 2 months ago. I didn’t realize how dirty it would get lol I’ve found a few online, but everywhere that has had them, they’re not longer available or out of stock. I’m wanting to get ex...

Its my husband’s birthday soon and I’m having trouble thinking of gifts. For context: he is leaving for a couple months and will be gone for it. I’ve come up with one gift but it seems too small as he has a milestone birthday coming (21). I’m thinking of getting him a challenge coin with a skull eating crayons. He l...

I got my hair done for 200$ I tipped her 25$ plus I brought her a Starbucks drink. Is this enough? Now second guessing it

Hey mamas, I'm not good with a budget, I tend to over or under spend on gifts for people I'm not close to. My toddler was invited to a classmate's (from daycare) birthday party.

Looking for some advice please - I’ve been searching for a new car for myself however my partner and I have been discussing the option of buying a car to share between the two of us. We both work from home, and could easily work around the logistics of who needs to take the car out to do what that day. I know it wil...

My Nana (Granny) - used to care for ALL the grandkids for the whole summer. And she did not buy the NAME BRAND soda- (ex. Pepsi ) because we drink it up too fast. Instead she would make Kool aid and buy Seltzer water. And if we wanted soda- we would mix them together. Today I love seltzer water. And every time I...

Anyone getting a sentimental gift for their baby's first birthday? Or willing to share ideas? We've already got my boy a trike, and plan to get some garden and montessori toys and soft play etc.. But I like the idea of getting something as a keepsake too🤔

A family member is getting christened soon, he'll be 16 months (our little boy is 20 months so we're close with them, having little ones so close in age). Looking for ideas on a nice gift for this age? I'd like to avoid your typical engraved cups etc as I think they'll get a lot of those things. Thanks!

Recommendations please - so many to choose from it’s impossible! I’ve borrowed my sister in laws yoyo and loved that but maybe a little pricey!

I’ve been so focused on buying birthday gifts/ cards and decorations for my daughters birthday on the 25th I’d completely forgotten it’s my sister in laws 30th on Saturday!

I love (post) cards and stamps! I recently discovered the Victorian puzzle purse 😍 Would love to see pics if anyone has made one! I received one from a friend, lucky me 🥰

Hi everyone! Just wanted to get some opinions on something that’s been on my mind. It was my youngest son’s birthday recently and we had quite a big celebration—lots of food, drinks, and activities for both kids and adults, quite generous party bags for all children, we had entertainer, bouncy castle, etc. It was a ...

I've heard it called many things(picture I comments what In referring to). It's a common thing in my area for a girl to receive as a special gift. For me i got mine when I was 13.
