Exquisite Gift Ideas for Your Kids

February 9, 2018 by dadofdivas Leave a Comment

Exquisite Gift Ideas for Your Kids

 

Being a parent can be often a challenging task. However, parents are always struggling to find the best gift ideas that their kids can unwrap on their birthday. It is a well-known fact that kids are not easy to shop for. Each time that you stroll down on endless aisles of toys, looking at the age range, and trying to remember the toys that they don’t already own, you become more and more aware of the fact that unlimited gift options are not helping you at all. Having to pick presents for a kid that seems to have pretty much everything is no easy task at all, but the following ideas could help you in this case.

Parents who want to surprise their kids in a good way and avoid getting them a dupe movie, book or doll are advised to opt for unique gifts. Creative gifts will bring them smiles regardless of how big of small those presents are.

Be Creative

A good way of making sure that you’re getting a present that your kids don’t already own is by personalizing a certain toy. The options are endless. You just need a bit of creativity and knowledge of your kid’s favorite kind of toys. You could either get stuffed toys, piggy banks, blankets or jewelry, all depending on their age and taste. If you want to make the gift much more interesting you could opt to personalize their gift in a simple yet effective manner. Therefore, you could opt for a certain toy that delivers a message from their grandparents, in the form of a recording. They will definitely love this kind of gift.

Pick Something Special

Another great gift idea for either a birthday or just as a random present could be a fashion item. Every child should learn how to get dressed from a young age. In this context, “learning how to get dressed” means learning a good fashion sense. Although kids should be allowed to pick the clothes that they like, it is important that parents help them make the best decisions when it comes to clothes and fashion. Being able to pick a good quality item of clothing has a lot of advantages. They last for a long period of time, they are skin-friendly and they look good. Nickis fashion for children is a good option for parents who are looking to get their kids luxury clothes that are stylish and special.

Make them Responsible

Pets are a great gift idea for any kid. If you think you’re not prepared to get a dog, there are a lot of other interesting pets that your kids will certainly adore. For example: fish, a tortoise, a cat, a rabbit or even a hamster. Buying a pet has a lot of advantages, besides making them more responsible and offering them a special kind of companionship. Animals help kids learn, they provide them comfort, they help us care for others and create strong bonds. Moreover, there are certain studies that tell us that owning a pet is a good way of decreasing the risk of developing certain allergies.

 

Consider Something Fun

Finding something that stands out or makes them stands out is always a fun gift to provide. While not all kids like to stand out in a crowd, sometimes having something that makes other kids take notice is helpful. Finding a unique gift from a company like Light Ups would do just that!

 

Finding the perfect gift can be a bit of a struggle at times, but the joy and happiness you see on your kid’s face are definitely worth it. Unexpected gifts are probably the best options.

Vivaroses

It’s almost mother’s day and as part of this special day I wanted to surprise my wife with some flowers. She had seen some roses a few weeks back that were multi-colored and thought they looked very unique so I thought I would find some for her. I was excited to find that Vivaroses had them! I had heard of Vivaroses in the past but had not ordered from them. In going on and looking through their site, they have an amazing array of roses that you can choose from. Best of all they were having a great deal for Mothers Day. Send mom a bouquet of roses for Mother’s Day and get 15% off with code MOM15 at VivaRoses.com! Best of all the sale goes until May 31st so even if you miss Mother’s Day you can still get great roses and save.

Ordering from VIVAROSES was super easy. You simply find the bouquet you want and order. You will get a choice of sizes for your bouquet and once complete the company is great at following up to let you know the status of your order. You also can select the date in which you want the roses to be delivered and they are sent via FedEx.

Vivaroses

It only took a few days to receive the beautiful roses that you see at the top of the post. Actually, what you see in that picture is only half of the bouquet as there were two dozen in the bouquet that I ordered. My wife loved them and your loved one will love the quality of these roses too.

If you are looking for roses for someone special, remember that you can get roses for every occasion with VivaRoses.com.

About Viva Roses

In a Spanish colony, in what is now Ecuador, during the early 1600s, there was a beautiful young woman with flowing dark locks, porcelain skin, and dark eyes. Her name was Eva and all the men of the colony desired to win her heart.
Her father, the governor of the colony, presented a challenge to his beautiful daughter’s suitors. He proposed that the suitor that presents his daughter with a gift as beautiful as she would win her hand in marriage.
A farmer’s son named Galo Cortez was madly in love with Eva. Not coming from a wealthy family he could not provide Eva with a gift of gold or jewels. Galo, however, heard the legend of beautiful roses that grew on the side of the volcano of Cotopaxi. Saying goodbye to his father, he set out on his quest for his gift for Eva.
After a long journey, Galo finally arrived at the base of Cotopaxi and spotted his prize – beautiful deep red volcanic roses. He made his way back to Eva and presented her with his gift. She was so taken by the beauty of the volcanic roses that she placed one in her hair for all to know that Galo had won her heart.

 

Our goal is to provide only freshest, most stunning roses from their family farm directly to your loved ones heart.

Gift Ideas for Working Dads

May 10, 2017 by dadofdivas Leave a Comment

Gift Ideas for Working Dads

Some days, moms get all the credit. Dads give their share of love, time and devotion. They work long hours, help with homework, and all those random household fix-ups that no one wants to touch. There are those dads who are beyond superheroes…making dinner, cleaning, and coaching little league games.

Dads deserve some love, appreciation and some not so quiet thanks. While Father’s Day is a few months away, surprise dad with a gift of gratitude…simply because. For the little things he does each day, often quietly and without anyone’s knowledge…or acknowledgement. Let him know you see him, appreciate him and love him for all he does. And has done.

Here are 10 great “just because” gifts to surprise dad for being the best!

A favorite movie.

Dads—like moms—usually never take time to themselves. If your dad loves movies, buy him one of his favorites. Choose a streaming version or an actual DVD, and then treat him to a movie night (make sure to buy some popcorn!).

A day of fun.

Most dads have an inner kid screaming to get out. Treat dad to a day of go-karts, bumper boats and crazy video games. You’ll find out pretty quickly that dad is a big kid at heart…and don’t worry, you don’t have to let him win!

Gifts for Working Dads

Take him out the ballgame.

Some dads live and breathe sports. If he loves his home team, schedule a family day at the ballpark or stadium. Complete the day with all the must-have treats like hot dogs, nachos and ice-cream.

A day of quiet.

All parents want some time to chill and relax. Give dad the day to himself to do whatever it is that he wants to do. In peace and quiet.

Gifts for Working Dads

A special delivery.

Who doesn’t love receiving a package? Send dad some cool treats. Order his favorite candy and have it delivered for a sweet treat that he’ll love! You also can send him a cool cookie bouquet or some fun novels you think he might love.

Down the tube.

If dad loves the water, head out for a day at the water park. Take on the tube slides and crazy raft rides. Then plop on a tube and chill out on the lazy river to catch some sun and enjoy the water. End the day with sno-cones or slushies. Just don’t forget the sunscreen!

Pedal to the metal

Start your engines! Give dad an experience he will NEVER forget—a racecar ride! Splurge for dad to drive a racecar on the tracks. Or he can ride along for a three-lap experience. There are many options via Nascar Racing Experience.

Lunch delivered.

Surprise dad at work by having lunch delivered to him. Order from his favorite restaurant (just be sure they deliver) and cater to dad’s hungry side. And don’t forget dessert!

A surprise gift card.

Slip him a surprise gift card. Whether it’s for coffee, lunch, music or a favorite store, give dad a little surprise to make sure he splurges on him!

Bake him something sweet!

The best gifts are homemade…and baked! Show dad you care by baking up his favorite cookies, cake or pie. And do not take a piece for yourself! This is all for dad!

Dads do so much each day. And, let’s face it, we don’t thank them nearly enough. Mom tends to get the most hugs. Dad usually stoically stands ready and willing. Show him how much you care with a surprise gesture that will take him completely off guard. And don’t forget to tell him ‘thanks.’

Kano – Giving The Gift of Technology & Education

December 15, 2016 by dadofdivas Leave a Comment

 Kano is a London-based company that empowers people of all ages to make, learn and play with computing, with its system of kits and open coding platform. photo disclaimer_zpsaa1cb05b.jpg

I know that in today’s world, knowing about computers is SO important. With the rate at which technology is changing, educating my daughters on current trends, but also providing them with the skills to build this technology for themselves is something that I strive to do. To do this I have tried to start to teach them some basic coding skills, but I know there is  more that I can do and Kano is a great gift that takes the questions out of this and makes learning coding fun for all ages.

 Kano is a London-based company that empowers people of all ages to make, learn and play with computing, with its system of kits and open coding platform.

You see Kano allows you to work together, or individually, build a computer. Yes, I said build a computer! It is not as hard as you might think. My daughter and I built our own computer using the screen kit and computer kit that Kano provides and we found that in less than 30 minutes we had a working computer.

 Kano is a London-based company that empowers people of all ages to make, learn and play with computing, with its system of kits and open coding platform.

While this was fun, the power in Kano though is what it does after you build your device. The interface and applications are built around the premise of teaching people how to code. Once our computer was built we started to explore the story mode of the Kano, and in this you can learn a lot about technology and how computers, sound, circuits and more work. There are also connections to other applications within the story mode and in these you are taught how to code in a step-by-step incremental way.

 Kano is a London-based company that empowers people of all ages to make, learn and play with computing, with its system of kits and open coding platform.

Kano is a London-based company that empowers people of all ages to make, learn and play with computing, with its system of kits and open coding platform. Its first “computer anyone can make” has shipped to 86 countries around the world to people, ages 6 to 81, who have used it to make PCs, screens, radios, artwork, music, games, Minecraft hacks and more. More than 19 million lines of code have been shared in its online community, Kano World, where anyone can try out Kano’s apps for free. Kano was founded by Alex Klein, Yonatan Raz-Fridman and Saul Klein and has raised $19 million in funding, from its initial record-breaking Kickstarter campaign to investors that include Jim Breyer, Marc Benioff, Martin Sorrell, Index Ventures, James Higa, Troy Carter and Shana Fisher, among others.

Kano is a London-based company that empowers people of all ages to make, learn and play with computing, with its system of kits and open coding platform.

My daughter loves to make art through coding and after creating her masterpieces she is able to share them virtually for all users to see. The fun part of this is also that it challenges the user to not only follow their instructions to create the art, but also to experiment and change the art after they are done to see how slight changes in the code will change what they are creating. While my daughter may not be aware that she is learning, she definitely is, and I can tell that she is having a blast doing it too!

If this sounds like something that you or someone else that you care for would love, for the holidays, Kano is offering a special promotion on the Computer Kit for $124.99 (save $25), and a Computer Kit Bundle for $259.99 (save $40), available online at kano.me. Also available on Amazon LaunchPad and through Kano’s retail partners Toys “R” Us and Barnes and Noble for $149.99.

Lionel Mega Tracks Provides High Flying Action!

November 6, 2016 by dadofdivas Leave a Comment

Lionel is expanding beyond model trains with the introduction of Mega Tracks, a revolutionary rail system where kids can use their imagination to design and build their own race courses!

 photo disclaimer_zpsaa1cb05b.jpg

I grew up with Lionel trains. Their high quality train sets are ones that I still have in my home today. This holiday season we will be pulling out our train set but we also will be pulling out something brand new from Lionel! Lionel is expanding beyond model trains with the introduction of Mega Tracks, a revolutionary rail system where kids can use their imagination to design and build their own race courses!

My daughters love to create their own worlds and this has been the case since they were very young and with this very cool new system, Lionel Mega Tracks allows kids the ability to build track layouts virtually anywhere using the clamp and construction system, and can also create their own stunts by twisting the TwisTrack™, a new flexible track system.

Lionel is expanding beyond model trains with the introduction of Mega Tracks, a revolutionary rail system where kids can use their imagination to design and build their own race courses!

We did this in our own home and found that once you have it built you can then send theMega Tracks vehicle into high speed action, using a handheld RC controller to adjust the speed of the vehicle and keep it on the track.

You get quite a bit of track and this allows you to build many unique things. With the Mega Tracks Corkscrew Chaos set you get 20 feet of TwisTrack™, 55 construction pieces to build customized  track layouts (including track clamps and connectors), Rail Racer vehicle and charger, handheld RC controller. Is this enough? Yes, you can build some things, but depending on your kid you may want additional Mega Tracks stunt packs to expand your track.

Lionel is expanding beyond model trains with the introduction of Mega Tracks, a revolutionary rail system where kids can use their imagination to design and build their own race courses!

My daughters loved that they were in control of the vehicle bu also that they could also control the design of the track itself. It seemed that part of the fun is using your imagination to build over and over again!

    • MSRP: $99.99 (for master set)
    • Recommended Age: 8+

Here is some thoughts on the Lionel Mega Tracks system! Enjoy!

Say the Right Thing This Fathers Day With Blue Mountain

June 10, 2016 by dadofdivas Leave a Comment

Blue Mountain

Saying the Right Thing This Fathers Day With Blue Mountain

Blue Mountain knows that there are people in your life that are hard to buy for. Whether that is your father, mother or friend. Sometimes I find that one of the best gifts, and the gifts that I spend the most time searching for is the perfect card.

Blue Mountain

I will spend painstaking time looking through a local store for the card that says just the right thing and usually I will find something that fits, but sometimes I have to go with a blank card so I can still say what I want to say.

The challenge is the amount of time that it takes to go through everything looking for the card just to find that there is nothing there that will fit what you are looking for….talk about frustrating.

Blue Mountain

Lately I have been relying more on Blue Mountain to find the cards and the right sentiments for the cards that I want to send and the messages that I want to convey.

As fathers day is approaching I have been looking for cards that they have for dads out there to see what is there, as I have a great dad and a father-in-law that I need to say just the right thing too!

Blue Mountain

From cards with special Father’s Day Quotes and Poems to inspirational statements, Father’s Day eCards and more there are so many more things to choose from at Blue Mountain that you will not find in your local store!

Blue Mountain Blue Mountain

On top of this I was surprised to find that they have even more that cards available for dads like me. Blue Mountain has also created some very cool Father’s Day Coloring Pages and Father’s Day Coupon Books that can make a fathers day even more special!

Blue Mountain Blue Mountain

So not that I am saying that my own kids should be looking at Blue Mountain for gift ideas (wink wink) but I will say that I was really impressed with the breadth and depth on the site and I could easily find some great ideas for the own dads in my life and I know that you can too!

Find out more about Blue Mountain on their social channels!

Forget About Mothers Day? Need a Gift? Sears Makes it Simple!

May 3, 2016 by dadofdivas 8 Comments

Chris Lewis and his girls

This is a sponsored post on behalf of Life of Dad and Sears. I have received compensation for this post; however, all opinions stated are my own.

Forget About Mothers Day? Need a Gift? Sears Makes it Simple!

Holy moly, Mothers Day is only about a week away. Mothers Day really crept up on me this year and it left me completely unaware. I do not want to have a fatherhood fail here so I need a fast fix to find a gift that I know that my wife will love!

Fortunately I just heard about a brand new service that Sears offers to help dads like me who are in this predicament. Now you might be thinking, Sears? Do they have items that a mom would love? Well… it depends on the mom but from what I have seen online and in the store I would give that answer a resounding YES. 

Whether you have a partner in life that is fashionable, an outdoors lover, fitness-focussed, Chef-extraordinaire or even a techie. The nice thing about Sears is that this store carries just about everything!

Now, as a parent, finding time and making these trips, especially with the kids can be a nightmare. In my household we go from extreme to extreme (Do you get that too?). One moment my daughters are excited about the trip and then they are at each others’ throats, or so it seems. So you can probably guess that taking the girls on these trips is not always at the top of my extreme fun lists. This has changed though because of the new service that Sears offers!

Sears #AllForMom In-Vehicle Pickup

Sears recently unveiled its In-Vehicle Pickup shopping service. With this amazing new service lets you sit in the comfort of your home to buy that last minute gift through the Sears website or their app and then by selecting that you want to use this service you can drive up to your local Sears, park in a specially marked place and they will have the item ready. This means that I can pick up my item on the way home from work when it is only me in the car and I do not have to hassle with the kids, their arguing, their “stuff” and even the timing of things….talk about stress relief. Details on how to use the In-Vehicle Pickup service linked here!

Sears #AllForMom In-Vehicle Pickup

I ended up finding a great item for my wife that I was able to order right online. Now you might think this is for the kids, but she wanted a Trampoline for the family….. yes, the family. Now, you might think that jewelry, flowers or something else feminine is what this mother would want, but nope… a trampoline it was!

So onto the Sears website I went and I found a ton of options. Once we found the one that I wanted, I found that while going through the ordering process, it was easy to simply check one box saying I was interested in the In-Vehicle pickup service. From there I downloaded the Seas app and I was ready to go.

When I got to the store I found the location to park and ended up getting my items without problem within only a few minutes. This service and their friendly workers make it stress free and simple!
