M&Ms

M&Ms are my new best friend.
Not only are they good to eat (especially the coconut ones), but the little drops of chocolate get my daughter to do ANYTHING.
It's how we toilet trained, got her to pick up toys, set the table for dinner, put her clothes on, etc. etc.

I came across this fun game from tokketok. 

Organize the colors accordingly, review them with mom, and then eat!

Back to School Party for Adults

I literally laughed out loud when I saw this party. 

Especially after reading the phrases on the straws.

"hurry kids, you'll miss the bus."

You can print everything off for free here.

 I guarantee though, I would throw something like this if all the kids were in school. 

I'll have to save this idea.

Fancy schmancy plastic zip bags

I saw these decorated zip bags over at babalisme. They would be perfect to make for you child's lunch bag (or your husband in my case). I'd probably be better at reusing them too, which is something I intend to do but end up being lazy and throwing them out.

 

and while you're there, check out her cute circus party she threw for her 2 year old daughter
