I got my daughter a new generation an I’m happy I went with the cheaper on because she doesn’t play with her or touch her at all!! She’s only 5 so maybe when she’s older she will be more into it. I was really surprised because she loves baby dolls. She would love the bitty baby version though I didn’t know they had those!

I love this video and I have watched your similar videos for at least 3 years now. My son is super into the Periodic Table at 6. So we got him a periodic tabke poster for his room and an acrylic block with many of the periodic table elements in it (ofcourse not the radioactive ones LOL). Just Wednesday online I was able to purchase $255 worth of Legos for $115 at Walmart. They had a killer Lego sale some $69.97 sets were $30!! So we are set for birthday, Christmas, Easter, and something to do in the incredibly hot summers we have when we neeed to stay in due to heat.

@melesa 7 ай бұрын

Thank you! Most of them we earn through our credit card points. We purchase most things on our credit card and then pay them off each month to avoid paying interest. Then we choose to use the points once a year to get gift cards to help with Christmas. This year we did earn a few from a rewards program with our insurance as well.

@melesa 7 ай бұрын

I make lists for each child. You can go to you Amazon account and then it should say “Your Lists.” You can then create different lists and choose a name for it. When you want to add something to it, go to the item and scroll down under “Add to Cart” and it will have a link that says “Add to List.” When you click on that, you can choose which list to add it to. On prime day or periodically I check the lists to see if anything is on a good sale and it’s something I want to buy for birthdays or Christmas.

Yea I already almost finished my almost 4 year olds Christmas shopping she wants a ride on electric Jeep It’s 300$ so I think that’s the only thing left I have to get her cuz her main two gifts she wanted was a mop and broom set and a little tikes refrigerator cuz of the ice cube thing😂 so got those then I got her a few other little things like the last Octonauts character she doesn’t have and few other things so only thing left to buy is the electric jeep but I’m going to wait till Black Friday to buy it even if it’s not on sale I’m still gunna buy it it’s just big and I’ll have to hide it in the garage so I wanna buy it closer to Christmas I’ll have to throw a sheet on the box or something to hide it 😂 and her birthday is in February so I got the things she asked for and just a few other things and I figured I won’t go crazy since she is going to have a birthday a month after Christmas and be getting more stuff lol

Hopefully these types of videos will give you some ideas and you can find some more things she will like to give ideas to family.

Are you not afraid of your children choking on some of those toys? I have a 18 month old and I have a 6 month old and they would be no way I would give them those toys?

@melesa 7 ай бұрын

All the toys that are specifically for the 18 month old are not choking hazards. The ladybug toy does have small flowers so that will just be used when I’m around. Having older kids comes with small toys so all of those are kept out of reach or behind closed doors in their rooms. Kids are kids so we do have to be diligent about making sure they stay in those areas.
