Ve Geat Backpacks

Hi Moms. So I'm thinking about getting an LL Bean Rolling original backpack for both my boys (7 and 4) for school this year. I hear they have great quality and if anything happens to it you can exchange it for a new one. I'm wondering about others experiences with it for lasting through the school year and the summer for camp (and how many years it usually lasts). Also wondering about the weight of it (4lbs6 oz) and how, if at all, that affected your kids. I'm thinking since both boys are driven to school and they can wheel it into...

Where Do You Shop for Kids Clothes?

I tried to go clothes shopping today for my kids (daughter is 4, son is 2) and left so frustrated!

I've heard good things about LL Bean backpacks so I'm looking into their bigger backpacks. I've also looked at Pottery Barn Kids backpacks. Where do you purchase backpacks for your elementary school aged children? Do you have a favorite?...

Gift Card Vs. Gift

Hi moms, My husband and I have ongoing debates as to whether gift cards are better than actual gifts. He prefers gift cards, saying that the recipient may not like or need/want what we pick out. Better that they pick out what they like. I would rather pick out a gift according to the person's personality. Also, I don't like that the money amount is so obvious in a gift card. I like the idea of giving some thought to the gift and adding that personal touch. A gift card seems to be rather impersonal. I don't mind giving gift cards to people...
