Easter Basket Gift Ideas with I See Me!

Chocolate!

We all love candy and sweets on holidays like Easter, but parents want to give real Personalisiertes Geschenk, or personalized gifts. It is a tricky task to find ones that are so useful, ones that can be enjoyed throughout the year. It can be hard to come up with gift ideas, however, which is why many websites exist with pre-made lists to help us think ahead.

This Easter make the smart choice and give the gift of personalized games and books from I See Me!

I See Me! is one of MamatheFox’s favorite brands. Their collection of gifts and books is always growing and and changing. They make personalized gifts so easy that you will be going back for more over and over again.

They allow you to add a picture of your child to some of their book – which is thrilling to my children. When they see their own faces, and the faces of their loved ones on a book, they are more engulfed into the message and listen more intently. The personalized images make them feel special, important and loved.

My 2 top picks for your children’s Easter Basket this year are brand new products from I See Me! The Our Family’s Race Across the USA board game and the My Little Love Bug and Love Notes set

The Our Family’s Race Across the USA board game

This is a super exciting new board game that is sure to make your family full of joy. You can create up to 6 personalized player game pieces with photos of your family. MamatheFox has a family of 4, so we have 2 other character faces that were provided to give us the full 6 player set of pieces.

My kids are 4 years old and 5 years old and are very much into games right now. They love to play games every day. Since adding in Our Family’s Race Across the USA into the rotation I am not minding playing along.

The game board folds open to show a colorful, wiggly path which you must travel on to get to the final destination, Washington D.C! As you move along your family will see their own names incorporated throughout the board, which is wonderful for preschoolers learning to read, write and spell their own names.

You move by picking up little cards which display either 1 or 2 colored squares, which are the same option of colors in the board, moving along the path towards the end. Some fun images are mixed in with the colored square, which can allow you to move to different areas on the board as you select them.

If your child likes games like Candyland and Shoots and Ladders, then this is the perfect new game for your house.

At only $29.99, this makes the most exciting personalized gift you may ever buy!

The My Little Love Bug and Love Notes set

The Love Note set is the most entertaining way to leave notes for your school ages child in their lunchbox! Each week I try to remember to write a little note on a napkin and place it in their lunchbox. Letting them know I love them, Jesus loves them and a reminder to be a super great kid at school. With these pre-made, and personalized Love Notes, I can simply place one in their lunch box. I love how easy they are to use and my kids love how the feeling they get when they see a personalizes note, with their face on it, in their lunchbox!

Each note is on a 4×6 card and (as long as they are kept clean) can be reused over and over again.

The Loves Notes set also comes with a the Little Lovebug book. The book can be personalized with up to two names, which is great for our family as we have only 2 children. The book includes their names and photos, showing them how much you love them.

The other half of this set is a custom book “Out Little Lovebugs”

This book can have two different children included in the story. Both parents are also featured as characters, truly giving this book a family feel. When I showed this book to my 4 year old son his eyes popped open wide and his grin when ear to ear! He was thrilled to see his face and name on the front cover. When we started to read the story and he saw his mom and dad’s face in the pictures along with his sister he was ecstatic!! He would point to our faces and announce who it was as each page was turned.

This book is more of a Valentine’s Day theme, but can be loved and enjoyed all year round.

Four Tips for Aspiring Mom Bloggers

Being a mother–or father–is both insanely challenging and one of the most incredible achievements a person can have in their lifetime. And whether you’re a soon-to-be mom pregnant with her first child or you’re a busy mama going through your fifth adoption process in need of a good night’s sleep, there is insight, humor, and struggles that only you in your specific situation could possibly explain. If you need an outlet to destress and work through some of the experiences you’ve had on your journey of motherhood while also prioritizing some much deserved time for self-care, starting a blog is a great way to begin. You may not be clued in on some of the more intricate details of writing a blog, such as designing a website, but I’m sure you’ll pick it up. You might use a program such as WordPress to design your blog, and for that you might want to take a look at some wordpress hosting options and WordPress coupon code. Here are some other key tips to remember during the process.

Pinpoint Your Interest and Stick to It

Even when a person becomes a parent, they do not lose the person they were before. Sure, you may have a little less time for your own personal health and wellness routine right off the bat or you may feel overwhelmed with the new responsibilities of parenthood, but the “you” who has always been there does not simply cease to exist. Try to tap back into your sense of who you are and your personal passions to figure out the focus of your new blog. While a blog does not need to have an incredibly narrow focus, it’s helpful to identify a potential blogging category that you enjoy, such as a blog about cooking or about being a professional woman with children. Finding your niche will help attract a base of followers who are consistently interested in what you have to say and will keep coming back to your blog for more.

Do It for Yourself

While there are not necessarily any “bad” reasons to start a blog, beginning purely for monetary gain is not the best incentive for a blogging journey. And while maintaining a specific financial situation can be integral to raising a family, money should not be the number one goal in this endeavor. When you find the right web hosting provider through a company like HostiServer, you are well on your way to launching your blog for pretty much the whole world to see. When you have something like this in mind, the idea of money shouldn’t be at the forefront of your mind. Doing something like blogging should initially start from a passion and if you do end up making money from it, that’s a bonus. Perhaps the most important reason to start a blog as a mother is that it is something for you. If you really enjoy writing and find it rewarding or therapeutic to designate time for your blog and prioritize your own desires and needs–even if just for an hour a day or an afternoon a week–then blogging might be a perfect option for you. Tap into the things that motivate you the most and use those incentives as fuel if you hit road bumps or writers block. Create a space you love in your home that is special for you and fill it with things that make you happy. Indulge. If you aren’t writing for yourself, maintaining a blog will not add anything positive to your life.

Consistency Is Key

As with all things, you can’t expect good to blossom from the blogging experience if you do not put in the effort on a regular basis. It is essential to stay consistent and post blog entries regularly for you to build and maintain a follower base that is interested in what you have to say and will turn to you as a resource when they have questions or need some help within your area of expertise. For instance, if you are really inspired by fashion and style and the focus of your blog is how to stay fashionable as a busy mom with little extra time, other folks who stumble upon your blog will remember you if you post regularly. But if your followers check back week to week and the latest post is still titled “Child-Friendly Jewelry and Accessories“, there’s a good chance they’ll stop returning to your blog. If posting every week is unrealistic for your life, shoot for every other week. But once you figure out a schedule that works, stick to it. Staying motivated to posting on your blog is also very important as if you are not in a position where you want to post content, your audience will be able to see it in your writing. Many people take part in various exercises or activities in order to find new ideas or refresh their mind on what to write about. Some people may get Psychic Readings done for them as they create a positive mindset which can, in turn, create positive content for their blog. Be sure to take part in various activities, you never know you may be able to write about some of them for your blog!

Technical Skills Do Actually Matter

Make your high school English teacher proud. While blogs are usually a pretty casual environment where grammar is not as heavily scrutinized as it would be in a professional or academic setting, using correct vocabulary, grammar, and spelling says more about who you are than any topic you discuss on your blog. Put your best foot forward and take the time to review some basic writing techniques if you need a refresher. There are plenty of easily accessible online games and educational programs that are designed specifically to exercise those writing muscles. Even if you consider yourself a skilled writer and a well-spoken individual, reviewing some basics can drastically shift the success of your blog in a positive direction.

Use Technology To Help

Where possible, use software to help your blog grow. For example, you might want to source an email service provider such as Sendgrid or an email marketing software like MailChimp. These will allow you to market your blog and have a better interaction with readers without you having to put the long hours in. Whilst on the topic of better interaction, a customer relationship management (CRM) software could be very useful too. As much as we bloggers like to reply to people in person, it’s not always possible and a CRM software could save the day. There are plenty out there, but the two best are compared here – zendesk vs freshdesk – so take a look. It will help you to grow your blog without working 24 hours a day!

Deborah: The Belle of Leadership from Bible Belles

 

Bible Belles are still one of my favorite scripture based story book series.

 

Through the past few years I have been reading Bible Belle stories to my daughter and son alike.  They both love so much about these books.  I love how they incorporate real life situations a child will face with a biblical truth and story from the bible.   They love the images and excitement of the story itself.

 

The newest book in the series is now released and available for purchase! Deborah: The Belle of Leadership

 

 

For every Bible Belles: Deborah book purchased – Bible Belles will be donating a copy of Bible Belles: Deborah to a World Vision!

 

Deborah was a women that was faced with a very sticky situation, and had to overcome her place in society and be braver than she ever imagined – to become a leader.

 

I love how this story gives young girls the concept that they too can step up and be brave by being the one in charge. It encourages them that when taking charge is the thing you need to do, that God will equip you to be the girl He desires you to be.

 

We need to teach our children that we are living to please God, not the people around us. It is Him that holds our lives eternally.

 

Deborah is the 5th, and final book, in the Bible Belles Series!

 

The adventure continues in Book Five of the Bible Belles series. With the angel Mari by her side, Rooney has learned that God has given her four real superpowers: Prayer, Patience, Bravery, and Loyalty. Her transformation into a superhero is almost complete. What’s missing? The Bell of Leadership.

As she watches Deborah rise up and lead an entire nation to victory, Rooney realizes that true leadership means inspiring others and working together. Through the story of Deborah, Rooney learns that God is calling her to lead. Is she ready to answer the call?

Come along with Rooney as she becomes the greatest superhero of all: a Bible Belle!

 

 

Keepsakes to Cherish from Canvas Factory

 

 

Canvas Factory specializes in creating keepsakes that your hearts will cherish.

 

As a parent, our most cherished thing is our children. Watching them grow, seeing them come into their own…its a joy in itself. But we know how quickly these times pass by. Before we know it they are potty trained, going to school, washing their own hair and growing up faster than we can bare.

 

The easiest, and one of the most affordable ways to keep the images of your amazing children is by showcasing your favorite photos on a custom canvas print from Canvas Factory.

 

Canvas prints are extremely popular, and due to the high demand for them there are a loads companies that now create them for the public. But how do you know who to trust? Who is going to give you the quality that you desire but at a price a modest budget can afford? MamatheFox found Canvas Factory and decided to give them a try – and man are we happy we did!

 

The online ordering process from Canvas Factory is not only easy but super fast too! Parents don’t have a lot of down time, we are parenting! Cleaning, cooking, loving on your little ones…we dont have time to monkey around on some website doing all the dirty work.  Canvas Factory streamlined their ordering process to ensure you get the product you want but in a fast and easy way.

 

 

When you click on “Style & Price” then on “Create Now” you are given the above image on your screen.

You can click on the type of canvas(s) you are looking to create from here. I had a single print created.

When you click where is says USD $34.30 – it will open up to show you all the size options, ranging from 12 x 18 all the way up to 32 x 48.

Here is also where you can select rectangular, square, panoramic or a custom sized canvas shape.

 

From there you will be lead back to the above image where you can click on the blue button “Continue – Upload a photo”. Now you can upload the images you desire to be printed on your canvas.

 

 

Here are the wrap styles – each are great – you just need to choose the one that best suites the image you are printing and where you are hanging it.

I went with the basic Gallery Wrap.

From there you are given the option to edit the photo itself – like making it more red, blue, gray, black and white among several other options.

I left mine as is and did not want to alter my image that I uploaded from my computer.

 

 

From there you are see what your canvas will look like!

 

After you place your order you will get an few emails from Canvas Factory. One will be key  –  it will contain a proof of your image and they will not print your order until you approve the image.  This extra step is what makes for such a happy customer. They want to be sure you are truley happy with the image you choose and how it lines up on the canvas before printing.  They want you to fall in love with your canvas the moment your eyes set upon it.

 

 

They also offer a large selection of college type canvas sets, split settings and even now offer us Acrylic prints and HD Metel prints! Doing so much more than your average canvas brand.

 

You will love the service, quality and turn around time (5-10 business days) you will get from Canvas Factory

 

 

The hanging device on the back of the canvas is on a hinge! This makes hanging it super easy
