Wholesale Star Wars Costumes, Not Just For Boys!

Wholesale Star Wars Costumes, Not Just For Boys!

According to my little girl, Star Wars costumes are not just for boys!  Of the 9 kids that my three siblings and I have, she is one of only 2 girls and the only other girl (on my side) is 17.  She tries hard to keep up with "her boys", she plays cars, "shoot em ups", Lego's and anything else that they are into.  So it was no surprise to me when she wanted a Star Wars Costume.

When she was determined to get a Star Wars Costume, I knew our selection of female characters was limited but I liked the options for the strong female role of Padme' Amidala.  She goes from being a princess to a senator, to a warrior fighting along side the male characters.

The Deluxe Child Padme Amidala Costume at Wholesale Star Wars Costume was the perfect choice for my little girl and will easily fit in with her cousins and their favorite Star Wars characters.  The Amidala costume includes a jumpsuit, boot tops, shawl and belt.

My little Amidala was flying around the house for hours. OK, so Padme couldn't fly but my daughter insisted that the shawl was actually a cape that would allow her to fly.  Kind of hard to argue with that logic.

She had a blast pretending to jump and ward off the "bad guys" zapping them with her blaster

We found the Deluxe Padme Amidala costume to be of good quality, we ordered the smallest size knowing that it will be a little big for her but she loves dressing up year round so it will fit for some time.  The boot tops actually stayed one and in place unlike others that we have had before.  I will be replacing the belt that came with it with one that has real pockets for her to pack her blaster and other things in but the one that came with it was nice and she had no complaints about it.

The cape shawl (you saw potAto, I saw potato) is light weight and durable, it stood up to hours of flying and fighting off monsters and aliens.

Overall, we were both very please with the costume and it will be joining her ever growing costume/dress up collection.

BOOK & CD SET

Read by Alexander Gould – the voice of FINDING NEMO!

SOMETIMES A KISS IS ALL IT TAKES TO TURN THINGS AROUND

Books are a very important part of my daughters day and bedtime routine so I am always looking for new books fir her collection.  

She loves books with brightly colored images and fun characters.  I find it amazing how, with some books,she is able to memorize books after reading them just a couple times and Pout Pout Fish is one of those books for her.

About The Pout Pout Fish

Swim along with the pout-pout fish as he discovers that glum isn’t really his destiny. Bright ocean colors and playful rhyme come together in this fun fish story that’s sure to turn even the poutiest of frowns upside down!

Narrated by the very talented Alexander Gould, who was the voice of Nemo in Disney’s iconic Finding Nemo, this Book & CD Set charms with vivid illustrations, an exciting storyline, and the perfect voice to bring it all together. Also including a read-along track and full-color paperback, this book & cd set is an absolute must-have for your collection!

Over Thirty Mommy's Thoughts

The Pout-Pout Fish is a very cute book.  Ever since it arrived, my daughter has been running around "blubbing" when she goes to kiss me goodnight.  My little one loves the main character  and goes around quoting the book.  She loves the included CD because she can put it on and "follow" along with the book like she is doing it herself.

Over Thirty Mommy's Thoughts
I am always looking for great way to get my husband and daughter to get their daily fruits and vegetables while limiting the sugary drinks that my daughter consumes.  It is amazing that most "juices" on the shelf are only 5-10% juice and the rest is sugar and water and who know what else.  201 Healthy is full of easy to make recipes for both juices and smoothies.  I love how they sneak in veggies and you never even notice and each recipe details out the nutritional information from calories to carbs to protein content.

We are going to be getting a ton of use out of 201 Healthy Smoothies and Juices for Kids.  We can have a different recipe every day for months!  No more boring smoothies at our place!

Guest Post: 4 Tips for Helping Your Kids Share a Bedroom

4 Tips for Helping Your Kids Share a Bedroom 

If you’re having trouble getting your kids to share a bedroom peacefully, don’t give up just yet. Although sibling rivalry is normal, there are a few clever strategies you can use to keep it to a minimum. These involve tackling the issue with an indirect approach instead of calling attention to it. Trying to force your kids to get along will only make things worse.

Separate Spaces

Create separate sleeping and play areas for each child. Having their own space can help ease the tension your kids feel from having to share a room. Put their beds on opposite sides of the room. Set up a small play area near each bed and fill it with toys that they normally don’t share. This should reduce the number of conflicts that occur over toys. Let them know that each child needs to respect the other’s space by asking if they can enter it instead of just barging in.

Individual Design

If your kids are old enough, let them decide how they want to decorate their part of the room. When they’ve each picked a theme, let them choose the paint color or decorations for the walls on their side of the room. Take them shopping, and have them pick out a bedding set to match their theme. Look for accessories, such as lamps or picture frames, that also go with each kid’s theme. Letting your kids decide how they want their area to look allows them to express their individuality. It also emphasizes the fact that they each have their own special space.

Common Area

Set up a common area in the center of the room to balance sharing with the need for individual space. Encourage your kids to use this spot to play together with toys that belong to both of them. You can put a small table with coloring books in this area or a larger toy, such as a dollhouse, that they usually share. You still might get the occasional fight, but you can easily break it up by having each kid go to their separate area. Let them know that the common area is off-limits if they’re not willing to share.

Privacy

Having a separate space might not be enough for some kids when sharing a room. They might want more privacy when sleeping or playing on their own. A fun way to provide this is by getting bed tents for your kids. These usually feature popular cartoon or TV show characters, so you can let your kids choose which tent they like best. The tents are easy to set up, and they give each of your kids their own private area.
Getting your kids to accept the fact that they have to share a room isn’t always easy, but these tips can go a long way toward helping them adjust. Give them plenty of time, and they’ll eventually become used to the arrangement. Even if things are rough at first, keep in mind that sharing a room will help them build a strong relationship in the long run.
