When I think of fall, pumpkins are one of the first things that come to mind. These pumpkin activities for kids will equip you with ideas that are both fun and educational. I love to incorporate seasonal activities when exploring life with my kids. This round-up is made up of my features for this week’s edition of Mom’s Library, my weekly link party.
Mom’s Library
What is Mom’s Library? Mom’s Library is a weekly link party that begins at 7:00 PM MST. A link party is where bloggers can link up their fabulous content. This gives bloggers the opportunity to get their posts seen by a wider audience, but it also becomes a great place for readers to come and find resources for raising, educating and caring for kids. What is linked up? Anything that relates to being a mom – crafts, activities, learning opportunities, parenting tips, recipes, party ideas and more. When bloggers link up here, their posts show up on these great sites: True Aim Education, Crystal’s Tiny Treasures, iGame Mom, Life with Moore Babies, Inspired by Familia, More Fun Mom, Pounds for Pennies and Home is Where they Send Us. We also often have a giveaway that we get to offer up to our readers.
Giveaway for Handmade Baby Moccasins and Bib Set
Courtney, owner of the Etsy shop The Striped Arrow, doesn’t think you should spend an arm and a leg to keep your babe in style. Her stylish handmade moccs are perfect for the non walking and those learning to walk. She’s also throwing in a matching bib to keep your babe clean from all messy meals. These baby moccasins are adorable and would be great for your own baby or as a gift. Good luck in these weeks giveaway. Winners must be 18+ and live in the United States.
