Easter is just around the corner and my 7-year-old loves everything Pokémon so, of course, I am planning a Pokémon-themed Easter basket. If you have a Pokémon lover at home and you haven’t started shopping yet, this week’s post is just what you need. I’ve put together a list of some of my son’s favorite Pokémon gifts. Most are from Amazon so you can get them in a pinch. Check out my idea list of Pokémon Easter Basket Gifts.
Every St. Patrick’s Day I like to add a little extra fun to the day by doing a treasure hunt that leads to a Lucky Basket filled with fun goodies and sometimes a little cash. It’s basically the equivalent of an Easter Basket but for St. Patrick’s Day. If you’re looking to start a new tradition like this or you already do it but need some filler ideas, check out my list of St. Patrick’s Day Lucky Basket Ideas from Target.

As the mom of a 7-year-old boy, I just love making every holiday as special as possible so why stop at St. Patrick’s Day?

These St. Patrick’s Day Treasure Hunt Clues make finding the pot of gold much more fun and entertaining. [Read more…]
