I couldn’t resist writing about my favorite birthday present ever. I honestly think every mom should have a pair of wireless headphones. I’m sure you all understand the value of having two free hands while making phone calls or listening to an audio book, plus the added bonus of not having to fight a cord or fighting a baby off from pulling on that cord.

After getting a recommendation for a pair of $100 wireless headphones and politely rolling my eyes, I did my due diligence and found this pair from TOZO for about $35/£25 (on SALE! Right now!). The battery life is great, USB charger is easy to use and the earbuds can be used together or individually. The remaining battery power is shown on the case so you always know when you need to charge (for me it’s every few days). Pairing with my phone and computer was simple, the connection and sound quality is near perfect and I love the tiny little case, easily fits in any pocket.

My Little One was gifted this piano for his 1st birthday by a relative and it has been a hit for the last four months and counting! At first my Little One was apprehensive, it was the loudest thing he had ever come in contact with, but he quickly figured out that he could bang his little hands all over it and he LOVED that. It took a few weeks of practice before he started occasionally using the drumsticks.

After about two months he started pushing ALL the buttons. It’s really helped him develop his hand-eye coordination, attention to detail and after about another two months he’s started pointing out all sorts of things around and outside our home. He also started dancing to the classical music available at the push of the orange button and every time the song ends he runs over to the piano shouting, “Again, again!” Then he squats down, hits the button again and he’s off dancing again. It’s kept him occupied for 30 minutes at a time.

This little piano really just keeps on giving. It’s been beaten, tossed across the room (and landed on carpet), turned upside down, dragged around and been beaten some more and it’s still going strong. I haven’t even had to replace the batteries yet! I’m very excited to see what the next thing is that my Little One will learn from it (it’s looking like colors and numbers).

Mom Prompts Day 6

Mom Prompts Day 6

Today’s prompt breaks a golden rule of parenting, but this is just an exercise so we’re going to do it anyway.

What do you want to be when you grow up? If your child is old enough they may already have some answers for you to write about, if not invent their dream career based on their current interests (yes, Milk Taste Tester or Professional Human Siren are legitimate career paths in this scenario, the funnier the better!).

Mom Prompts Day 5

Day 5 and I am barely hanging on (hence the super late post). This mom needs a hand today, so I’m sharing today’s prompt from the April PAD Challenge, but with a parent spin on it.

The prompt today challenges you to write a poem after creating the title using the following fill in the blank:

“The First ______”

Of course, to give it our signature parent spin, make the title about a first baby/child or parent moment.

Too Wet

Too Wet

The reasons my toddler cries,

are as multiple as flies:

sometimes his blocks don’t stack just right,

sometimes something won’t budge under all his might;

sometimes the song he picks is wrong,

sometimes the song is just too long,

sometimes the cat does not want to play,

and sometimes it’s just not his day;

socks too orange, cereal too wet,

food too seasoned, nap time too set,

all I know for sure, is by the end of the day he will have wept.
