Kwik Stix™ are solid tempera paints that make creativity fun without the added mess.  They are wonderful to use for Valentines Day activities or anytime you want to allow your kids to let their imagination run wild.  Did I mention they are not messy?  Anytime I had my kids get their creativity going it always involved a lot of cleaning up afterward.  Let me share with you all about Kwik Stix.

What is Kwik Stix?

Kwik Stix is the mess-free alternative to traditional paints. They are tempera paint sticks which are gluten, egg, peanut, soy, and dairy free and need no prep nor cleanup. This is awesome, especially for kids that have allergies to the aforementioned items.  Kwik Stix goes on wet and dries in 90 seconds or less with a paint like finish, working on paper, canvas, wood and more!  I am so very impressed with just how easy these are to use.  Half the issue when it was craft time with our daycare kids was all of the mess that was involved.  I wish we would have had Kwik Stix back then.  We would have had fewer paints being mixed which always seemed to ruin the sets when we wanted to use them again.  With Kwik Stix this is not a problem.  

The colors are vibrant as you will see in the craft below.  They are so easy to use. I will not take credit for this fun Valentines Day wooden photo frame, but you can get your own supplies and make one yourself.  A fun wooden frame from Michaels and Kwik Stix made this project fun and easy.  

Once you are done painting your frame you can add your favorite picture and give it to your Valentine. Pick up both Kwik Stix and a wooden frame at Michael’s in store or online at www.michaels.com.  Also visit The Pencil Grip here to get more ideas.kwick stix diy

Kwik Stix has different sets to choose from.  As shown below.  All sets guarantee endless hours of fun for your children.  No paint brushes or water is needed which eliminates the need for extra supplies.

Kwik Stix and Michael’s

  1. 12 pack of classic colors on Michaels
     Details:

    • 12 classic paint sticks
    • Tempera paint
    • Dries in 90 seconds
    • No water needed
    • Non-toxic
    • For use on poster paper, cardboard, wood, and canvas

    Kwik Stix and Michael’s

  2.  6 pack of metallic colors on Michaels  
    Details:

    • 6 metallic paint sticks
    • Tempera paint
    • Dries in 90 seconds
    • No water needed
    • For use on poster paper, cardboard, wood, and canvas

    Kwik Stix and Michael’s

  3.  6 pack of neon colors on Michaels 
    Details:
    • 6 neon colors
    • 10 g
    • Dries in 90 seconds
    • No water needed
    • For ages 3 and up

An idea I to use Kwik Stix with is to purchase the pre-made birdhouses, which you can normally get in the wood section of Michaels, and any or all of the Kwik Stix color choices.  Then pick up a couple small book or books on different types of birds, and of course some bird seed.  

Have your child(ren) paint their birdhouses in a design or colors they choose.  Then put them out in the back or front yard with some bird seed.  Once they have been out for a couple days you will start to see birds coming, and you can find that bird in the book you purchased and help your child learn more about the types of birds that visit their feeders. Don’t know where to buy craft accessories at the discounted price?

Some people just seem to have a knack for finding creative gift ideas that always delight the recipient, but most of us really struggle when it comes to finding something special. As Valentine’s Day approaches, the pressure to find the perfect gift for the person you most want to impress can lead to quite a bit of anxiety! But fear not, because we’ve come up with a gift guide to inspire you and help you find the perfect pressie for that special someone. If you’re ready to find the gift that really lights up your partner’s face this year, then read on!  

Make a generic gift more personal:

If you’re really struggling to come up with anything beyond flowers and chocolates, consider making the gift special by having their name included. Personalized candles, cards, and chocolate boxes are a great budget option if you haven’t been dating for a long time but still, want impress. You could also choose a variety of healthy sweets and do the chocolate subscription box delivery as a yearly gift.  

Personalized bathrobes and towel sets are useful as well as thoughtful, or even a fancy bottle of their favorite alcoholic tipple with their name and a message printed onto the label make for memorable gifts.

Wacky gifts:

If your beloved is a little bit strange or out there, make your gift something that will tickle them and show them how much you adore their wackiness! From Harry Potter themed ‘Bertie Botts’ every flavor jelly beans to Donald Trump toilet paper, (and we’re not even making this up) there really is a wacky gift out there for everyone!

Inspiration can be found in unexpected places:

While it might not be the first thing that comes to mind, a corporate gift catalog can actually be a great place to find some ideas to inspire you. It is, after all, their job to come up with a broad range of gifts that will appeal to a variety of different customer types, and you can use that!  Eco-friendly gifts, beauty hampers, and tech gadgets are just some of the realms you might draw inspiration from.

Make a commitment:

Gift Guide to Valentine’s

If the time is right, then making a grand (or grand-ish) gesture can be the best gift of all. Give them a key to your home as a sign you’d like to consider moving in together, or adopt a cat or dog from the local shelter together.

Consider their hobbies:

Maybe your partner has indicated they’d like to try and start their own veggie garden, take up DIY or get back into an old hobby. Consider a gift that encourages them and shows you take interest in their growth. If they’re passionate about protecting the environment, you can get them an eco-friendly gift like a solar charger or bamboo item that lasts for years on end.

Gifts for people who despise Valentine’s Day:

Gift Guide to Valentine’s

No-one’s denying the fact that Valentine’s Day has become something of a money-making spin, and a lot of people choose to deliberately avoid giving gifts. That doesn’t mean that you can’t do something less commercialized! Consider giving to a cause or charity that’s close to your beloved’s heart on their behalf. You’ll get loads of brownie points and support a great cause all at the same time.   

Gadgets for the tech whiz:

Wireless earbuds, wearable techs like smartwatches and fitness gadgets, a GPS or Bluetooth tracking device for their keys or wallet, unusual USB flash drives, or even a virtual reality headset can make your tech-loving significant other swoon this Valentine’s Day.

On the flipside, if your partner prefers taking things offline, then gifts like camping equipment, survival gear, or even a telescope to gaze at the stars with can be a great gift.

You can never go wrong with jewelry!

There’s a reason jewelry remains a classic gift for any occasion – it signifies permanence and value, and it remains one of the best ways to let that special lady know you’re serious about your relationship.

Buy them a year’s subscription to their favorite journal or magazine

You know what magazines, journals or newspapers your significant other likes to peek at when you’re waiting in line at the grocery store, so surprise them with a gift that will keep giving! It could be a tech, gaming or health magazine for the guys, a glamour mag or guilty pleasure tabloid for the ladies – whatever will entertain your partner and make them smile.

Give them the chance to spoil themselves with a spa voucher or adventure activity

Sometimes ‘forcing’ someone to take a break and pamper themselves is the only way to accomplish the mission. Get your girlfriend and her bestie vouchers for a day at the spa or beauty salon, or get your man go-karting, paintball or laser tag tickets.

We hope you’ve found some inspiration, and please feel free to share your ideas in the comments!

**Disclosure: I received a copy of the season below in order to facilitate my review.  All opinions are my own.

If you haven’t had a chance to see This is Us yet, you will want to grab your copy of their season one.  This way you will be ready to get season 2.

Give This is Us Season 1 for Valentines Day this YearThe writing for this new TV series is wonderful and the acting is first-rate. This is an emotional drama which at times will leave you in tears, while at other times will have you laughing out loud.

It’s a bit more serious at times, but it’s also a very believable show that will pull at your heartstrings and emotions. The show features several plots and subplots and revolves around several different time periods. Somehow, the writers manage to tie all of the different scenes into a universal theme that makes this show stand apart from others. With all of the mediocre TV shows available for viewing, this compelling new drama/comedy leaves the others in the dust.  You will be amazed how the writers intertwine everything, and always keep you guessing how quickly they will bring in the next situation that they deal with.  I can’t even say I have a favorite character as they each touch you in a different way.

The bottom line is that this is one of the finest TV series currently on the air. It will undoubtedly be a show that continues to evolve. The plots are intelligently written and the performance by all of the cast are first rate. This is a show with staying power, and one of the few that is worthy of your time.

There are no words that I could write that would truly express how truly wonderful this show is. It’s a blockbuster, not to be missed, incredibly well written and acted, one for the ages, unique and truly moving series that will impact the way you feel about life.

Valentines Day is coming up quickly… If you are like me, then you are probably on the hunt for the perfect Valentine for the little sweetie in your life. If your precious ones are like my grand children, then they probably already have one too many stuff animals and the thought of them receiving more candy, gives their parent’s a feeling of dread! So, what is the perfect Valentines Day gift? If you ask me, a book! No matter what their age, a book is the perfect solution! I See Me! has the perfect Valentine’s books that will be cherished for years to come.

I See Me! On Valentine's Day

Nolan and Lorelai enjoying their book “We Go Together Like” from I See Me!

I See Me!

Combining the innovative technology of personalization and story telling, I See Me! creates unique gifts for all occasions that make each child feel special. Experience the Joy! Kids love being the stars of their very own stories, so just imagine their delight when they discover that their new storybook has a very familiar hero. Personalized storybooks from I See Me! make children feel special while encouraging important skills such as reading, letter recognition, and learning to spell their own names. Beautifully illustrated and professionally bound, customized books from I See Me! take quality and personalization to the next level. Animals might bring letters one by one to spell out your child’s name. Fairies might bring the letters of your child’s name and then crown her as their fairy princess. The hero might have the same hair color and skin tone as your child, or a photograph of your child’s face might be playfully incorporated into the illustrations. Storybooks from I See Me! can help children develop basic reading skills, teach them to recognize their own name in print and lay the groundwork for writing their own names. These entertaining books also build self-esteem by celebrating the uniqueness of each child.

We received several personalized books from I See Me!:

I See Me! On Valentine's Day

Delightful Personalized Books from I See Me!

The kids and their parents loved all of the books. Their 2 absolute favorite books though, are My Little Love Bug and We Go Together Like.

I See Me! On Valentine's Day

Lorelai sees herself and is tickled pink!

Here is what my daughter-in-law had to say about them:

“My Little Love Bug, is the cutest Valentine book! It puts the kiddo’s face in each character that is talked about and the words are little rhymes that flow. I made the mistake, for some reason (not sure why #momfail) of only putting my daughters information into this book , even though its made for up to 2 names. My son, who’s 4, was so disappointed that his name and picture wasn’t in the book, since he had so much fun listening to it and seeing “Lorelai bug”. Seeing his excitement about this book, along with the other I See Me! books, I jumped online and ordered him a My Little Lovebug Nolan book for his Valentine Day gift.”

I See Me! On Valentine's Day

Just look at the thrill on Nolan’s face as he reads his “Who Loves Nolan” personalized book!

Children find it fascinating to see their name printed on something. No matter if its a toy license plate, a key chain or a cup, it’s always great. Reading a book with your name in it and maybe even your picture… does it get any better?

The I See Me! books are already becoming regular bedtime story reading. After they read to the 4 year old, his “Who loves Nolan?” book, he wanted to know what I See Me! spelled. When they the words to him, he then replied nope its “I See Nolan!” with a big smile on his face! Upon, hearing about this… I couldn’t help but think score!

You might not think of a Motorola Talkabout T480 for Valentines Day as a gift but why not?  Valentines Day isn’t just for couples.  There are many reasons you will find that a Motorola Talkabout comes in very useful.

Pros of the Motorola Talkabout T480 

When the unexpected hits you can stay connected.   The always-on connectivity and instant communication keep you and your family ready for emergency occurrences.  Even with the power is out or cell phone towers are down, your radio will be charged and ready to go.  This will ensure you get weather alerts and you can communicate with your community.  

How far can I expect my radios to communicate?

The communication range quoted is calculated based on an unobstructed line of sight test under optimum conditions. Actual range will vary depending on terrain and conditions and is often less than the maximum possible. Your actual range will be limited by several factors including, but not limited to terrain, weather conditions, electromagnetic interference, and obstructions.

Fun Features

FM Radio in Two-way Radio

This is one of my favorite features of the Talkabout T480.  I love that it has an FM radio mode which allows me to listen to my favorite songs or news.

Light Your Way
Especially during emergencies, the built-in LED flashlight gives me a safe feeling during dark adventures, and unexpected emergencies or power outages. I also like that the flashlight also automatically turns on during a blackout and when unplugged, so you always have light during an emergency.  Anytime we have lost power I always seem to have to search for a good flashlight, now that is no longer an issue.

Ready-to-Go Radio
The wall/desk stand is easy to use and keeps the charger cable neatly tucked away. The stand bottom opens and you can roll in the rest of the cable, resulting in no tangling wire.

Charge Quietly – Don’t Miss Alerts
Quiet Charge allows you to charge the radio and turn off calls. You will still receive weather and emergency alerts, so you don’t miss important information.

IP54 Weatherproof
With the IP54 weatherproof design, the radio withstands the effects of rain, snow and other weather conditions.

22 Channels Each with 121 Privacy Codes
With 22 channels and 121 privacy codes, totaling 2,662 combinations, it is easy to find an available channel. 

Know the Weather In Advance
I always check my weather app each morning when I wake up but sometimes it seems to be out of date.  So now I keep updated with real-time weather conditions by turning on the weather channel or initiating weather alerts. With these capabilities, I will always be prepared for the unexpected.

NOAA radio service may not be available in all areas. But you can check with your local weather office for frequency and details, or visit www.weather.gov/nwr (Canada: www.msc.ec.gc.ca/msb/weatheradio).

Quickly Ask for Help
When in danger, easily ask for help. Press the emergency alert button, and the radio will transmit an alert siren followed by spoken or incidental sounds. This will allow others to know that you have an impending danger.

Power Through Your Adventures
There are two ways to power your radio. You can use NiMH rechargeable batteries included for up to 10 hours. Or use 3 AA batteries on the go for up to 26 hours. This way you will always have an option on the go.

There are three ways to charge the NiMH rechargeable batteries. You can connect it to your vehicle adaptor,  your computer, or plug the micro-USB cable into an outlet. So you have more than one option to charge it if you aren’t near an outlet.

Extra Power When You Need It Most
Push-To-Talk (PTT) power boost allows you to extend the transmission range by increasing the transmitter power output. It also saves battery life when no power boost is necessary.

Calling All Chicken Enthusiasts These Books are For You

Even though I will admit chickens make me a little nervous, my Mom loves hers.  She has had them for a few years now and they are like her own little babies.  She has Barred Rocks and I will say I think they are beautiful.   She has raised them since they were just baby chicks. So when I heard about these great books I just had to get them for my Mom.

Calling All Chicken Enthusiasts These Books are For You

The first book we have is  Chicken Fact Or Chicken Poop: The Chicken Whisperer’s Guide to the Facts and Fictions You Need To Know To Keep Your Flock Healthy and Happy. 

This book is a  science-rooted, fact-based, and study-reinforced manual designed to help you weed through the facts and fictions about your flock. 

Those who raise chickens have more information available to them than ever these days.  This makes it harder to know if you are reading facts or as they say “just plain chicken poop”.   You will find that Andy Schneider who is deemed The Chicken Whisperer has a knowledgeable team of top chicken experts who will help you sort through the common facts and non-facts about how to keep your chickens happy and healthy.  Topics that are included are nutrition, parasites, trauma, medication, human health as well as predators.  You will be able to learn everything you need to know and didn’t know about your backyard and/or urban chickens.

You can purchase it from Amazon (not an affiliate link) here.

The second book I received is The Chicken Chick’s Guide to Backyard Chickens: Simple Steps for Healthy, Happy Hens. 

If you are a chicken enthusiast you have probably heard of Kathy Shea Mormino who is internationally known as The Chicken Chick.  She has millions of fans around the world and brings information and a fresh perspective on raising backyard chickens.  She is an attorney by day and is the founder and one-woman force behind her very popular and award-winning Facebook page and blog, The-Chicken-Chick.com.

You will enjoy learning from her years of hard-earned experience and many collaborations with poultry veterinarians, professors, and nutritionists.  She provides simple steps to care for these uncommon pets.

Kathy’s personality permeates the book as she guides the newbie, veteran, and would-be backyard chickeneers alike through all aspects of small-flock care—from getting into the hobby to housing, feeding, egg production, health, and much more. The result is accurate information presented in the fun and abundantly illustrated format that Mormino has delivered on her blog for years.

The last book I received was Epic Eggs: The Poultry Enthusiast’s Complete and Essential Guide to the Most Perfect Food.

This isn’t a typical egg cookbook or guide to raising chickens, Epic Eggs takes a deep dive on the eggs themselves and tells you how to raise birds that will produce the best eggs you’ve ever seen.

It may be true that most poultry found on small homesteads or in backyards especially are viewed as pets, but they are inarguably pets with benefits–namely eggs. In Epic Eggs, homesteader and writer Jennifer Sartell looks at the eggs of the most common types of poultry you’d find in your backyard: chickens, ducks, geese, turkeys, guineas, and quail.

But don’t worry this isn’t an egg cookbook nor a guide to raising poultry.  Jennifer goes into the eggs themselves and explains everything you need to know about them.

Jennifer will show you a variety breeds of birds, and what sizes, shapes, and even colors of egg they produce; from white to blue, brown, chocolate, olive, and speckled, plus heritage breeds and how to breed for specific colors.

The photos in this book are fantastic color photography of eggs and their birds, Epic Eggs goes on to address how to optimize living conditions and diet for the healthiest and most-flavorful eggs, the process of grading and storing eggs, and the eternal washing debate. There’s also discussion of nutrition, baking, cooking, preserving, pickling, and dehydrating. The book ends with advice for homesteaders looking to create business plans and a section on troubleshooting. You can purchase this book from Amazon (not an affiliate link) here.
