Fun Spring Picks for Kids

 This post is sponsored by BabbleBoxx.com. #Just4KidsBBxx

We are in that in-between season…where it’s sometimes cold, sometimes hot, or sometimes raining. There are days we can get outdoors for fun or other times when a fun day inside with some new stuff is fun. I recently received a kid-themed box from my friends at Babbleboxx and I’m so excited so share all of these fun picks that my kids had a blast with over the weekend. 

Snazaroo Face Paint

When my daughters realized that these were face paint brush pens, they were ecstatic. Face-painting is the highlight of so many parties and amusement parks we’ve been to. To be able to bring that fun home is great. 

I had to narrow down their wide list of requests for all sorts of artistic ideas (while these pens are easy to use, I am NO artist!)  We had a great time playing with face paint – and even my older son found a great purpose for these pens on game day. 

The brush applicator delivers high quality, fragrance/paraben-free liquid face paint. It’s safe for application on your littles and okay for sensitive skin. There are 12 colors, and five different themed packs, each with a suggested retail of $9.99. There is an Adventure pack – with red, gold and blue paint (think Superhero!). The Fantasy Pack has colors like Purple, Pink and Silver for a magical face (think fairies, princess or butterflies). The Halloween pack features black, white and orange while the Jungle theme pack lets you go wild with yellow, green and brown. Finally, the monochrome set includes two black and a white, making it a staple! 

 

You can find the Snazaroo Brush Pens on Snazaroo.com and Amazon.com

 

Jane M. Rose-Vallee Books – Dinosaurs Living in My Hair & Dinosaurs Living in My Hair 2

The next thing we did for fun was explore two new books, Dinosaurs Living in My Hair Books 1 and 2.  Dinosaurs Living In My Hair (DLIMH) is series of whimsical, award-winning children’s books that encourage children to color outside-the-lines and embrace their creative, imaginative spirit.  Written in rhyme and beautifully illustrated, these children’s poetry books immediately capture a child’s attention and bring the outlandish, entertaining tale to life.

The main character and narrator with crazy curls, Sabrina, really resonated with my daughters – plus they are turning SIX just like her. They also have curly, wavy hair and found the story to be funny as Sabrina imagines dinosaurs living in her hair.

The girls loved reading these together but also loved when I read them aloud to them before bed. The rhyming verses of the story are really cute and add to the fun.

PEZ Jurassic World Collection 

It wouldn’t be fun without PEZ!  Not only are they nostalgic, they are just simple, good fun! The launch of the all-new Jurassic World Collection comes with three new dispensers – T-Rex, Blue the Raptor and Dilophosaurus.

Fun news: On June 1st of this year, in anticipation of the theatrical release of Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom,  PEZ will be releasing a Click & Play Gift tin, which will include four dispensers that can be removed from the base to play along in an interactive board game. These will be available at select retailers nationwide and online at us.pez.com.

My kids loved playing with the dispensers, trading and of course, playing dinsosaurs!

Sprout Crispy Chews 

Essential to any fun day are good snacks – and these Sprout Crispy Chews are a great idea!  These tasty chews are ideal to toss in a bag or enjoy at home. With two flavors (Orchard Fruit and Carrot and Red Fruit Beet & Berry, your kids will love the taste. What makes these so interesting is that these contain crisped whole grain rice, along with blended fruit or vegetable. They are a chewy, soft and a delicious fruit snack. They are easy to pick up with little fingers and made with a full servings of fruit and vegetables. The texture is enjoyable for kids and mine loved the Orchard Fruit and Carrot (although the Red Fruit Beet & Berry was equally as yummy!).

Zenni Eyewear 

If you have a child that wears glasses, they shouldn’t hold them back from all the fun play that spring and summer bring! I can imagine that kids’ glasses have to be able to withstand a whole lot, so I love Zenni Eyewear Kid’s Flexibles Glasses for toddlers to pre-teens. These are designed for serious play, no hinges, no metal parts, and adjustable / detachable strap. They are designed from single piece frame and made to be virtually unbreakable.   They have a variety of colors and styles from toddler to preteen.
