Gift for 5 year old

My niece is turning 5 soon. Originally I got her a horse but then upon visiting her the other day she had that horse already. She loves horses but it seems like she already has every horse. I'm trying to find what to get her. Besides horses she likes: being outside, dogs, baking with her mom, and pandas but I don't ...

2nd birthday party

My daughter is having a party at the end of April and I’m suddenly panicking that we don’t have any kind of entertainment (I.e. a music/sensory person)! What are the rest of you having parties doing? Is sticking out some soft play and toys enough? Party is at our house, we’ll have about 8 children all around 1-3.

Mommy and me walking club Sundays in Brooklyn?

Hi mamas, as the weather warms up I’ve been trying to get out the house more and go walking Sundays. Would anyone be interested in walking together in the future? 🥰 in the past I’ve walked around bed stuy or by the water @ domino park. Open to other locations in Brooklyn that are stroller friendly 🫶🏽

Looking for advice! I am finally thinking about going abroad on holiday with my husband and 18 month old, probably in may so he will be 20 months old at a push. I've always found an excuse not to go, because I've been too worried about routines etc. I still feel the same, I don't want to interrupt his routine but I ...

What *big* toys do your 14-15 monthers love?

I'm due with my second in May, and I want to get my first something special that we'll give her when baby arrives. She is 14 months old at the moment, and she'll be 15-16 months depending on when I deliver. She's a big climber, so I've been considering getting something to help her explore that, but I'm not sure wh...

Quiet time activities

So my son used to be good at staying in bed for quiet time or he'll take a nap if he's feeling up to it. But lately he's been running out of his room to find me to either play or read with him.
