What’s going on tribe!
I know, I know you’re all probably wondering where the heck I’ve been and don’t worry I promise to fill you in soon, but for now you guys, let’s talk about Christmas shopping with a toddler! I’m sending you extra coffee if you’ll be tackling the holiday MADNESS with a few little ones hanging off you!
Now, I’ve decided to share with you a small holiday shopping survival kit that may just save you a few hours and a serious public meltdown — we both know I’m not talking about the little one that’s touching everything in the store! Grab your coffee, have a read and let’s go tackle this madness together!
With the holiday season being around the corner I find myself panicking trying to find the perfect gifts for my loved ones while trying to remain sane shopping with a toddler. Since it’s that time of the year I figured it was only fitting to share with you my ultimate shopping secret when shopping with my son Felix; how I keep him well behaved in his stroller, while I run around stores with an extra large coffee and a determined face. My secret weapon is SNACKS! That’s right you can refer to me as the Snack Mom! This might not come as a surprise to my friends and family, but many of you guys may not have known my dirty little secret. So I’m here to share a few tips and tricks that I use to survive a few hours at the mall with a very active boy, who eats non stop all day.
Being that mealtimes and snacks play a huge role in my busy mom lifestyle, I’m always on the look out for healthier choices for Felix. When I started shopping for snacks to carry with me at all times, I stumbled upon PC Organics Baby brand and their products have played a huge part in my daily Snack Mom wins — I’m always packing extra snacks, because who knows when either of us will have a public breakdown. My daily mom wins almost always consist of food. I can honestly say, PC products have been a cornerstone of my family's food products, long before I even partnered with them.
TIP FIVE: Bring your bestie and extra snacks to share! Shopping in general can get stressful, but when you've got a friend to keep you company, time flies by so much faster. Occupied, busy babies typically stay out of trouble!
So these are my five secret survival tips — not so secret anymore! I hope I could help make this joyous season less stressful and more fun, as it should be. Make sure you pack those snacks ya’ll. Check out PC Organic Baby brand, I'm sure you will not be disappointed! This Snack Mom is out. Happy holidays and happy snacking!
