The longest running annual production of The Nutcracker in the nation, TOLEDO BALLET’S NUTCRACKER is going ALL virtual this year!

And we’re personally loving the fact that our elderly loved ones and those family and friends with compromised immune systems and those who live out of town can watch our daughter perform!

SAFE, LOCAL, Princess & Character visits are the perfect Holiday Gift! ($15)

December 9, 2020December 9, 2020momonthegoinholytoledo

Anyone else have Princess Fever? Tis the season when we usually see our favorite prince, princesses, and additional characters gliding across the ice at Huntington Center. It’s a long standing tradition in our family and of course this year it just won’t be the same. Pile on the fact that most families had to cancel any plans to head to Florida or California to see the big mouse and princesses in-person and we’re practically dealing with a whole new pandemic, the Princess Blues Pandemic….don’t worry, TP sales aren’t affected with this one. 😉 Thankfully Princess Essentials LLC has the remedy for this ailment and for a cost that can’t be beat!

Toledo Stocking Stuffer Ideas

December 8, 2020December 8, 2020momonthegoinholytoledo

“What should we get the kids for Christmas?” tis the season for parents to be asked that $64,000 question repeatedly by relatives and friends. To answer the question parents often ponder 3 things….

1- Storage Space: As each year passes children seem to accumulate more toys, games, puzzles, “stuff” than one has storage space. One shouldn’t have to rent out a storage unit just to accommodate all their children’s “stuff”.

November 30, 2020November 30, 2020momonthegoinholytoledo

The holiday season has just begun. The 6 weeks between Thanksgiving and New Year’s is perhaps the most eagerly awaited period of the year. This is the time for family, friends, gatherings, fun, and frolic. The kids are full of zest, but unfortunately, moms tend to go in the opposite direction – stressed out and tired. They’re just pulled in every direction imaginable and stretched thin in each.

Safe way to add some Christmas Joy for Kids at Lucas County Children’s Services

November 27, 2020December 10, 2020momonthegoinholytoledo

Hello everyone! I am sponsoring a book drive for Lucas County Children Services thru my Usborne book business. All donations will be matched at 50% with more free books! Please donate the gift of reading, it is something these children can take with them wherever they go! These children are pulled from their homes with nothing. A book can be full of comfort, laughter, “another world”, and support all of which can help with hard transitions! I have a family member who is going thru this right now, and we sent a care package as a family. Many of these children have no one to help them outside of Children Services! Lets get books into these children’s hands https://flow.page/lccsbookdrive

Thank you,

Why Usborne Books are one of the best gifts to give kiddos this year…..

6+ hours daily, 30+ hours during the week, & 8+ hours of screen time on the weekends and that’s just for school! That doesn’t include all the extracurriculars that are on Zoom, Google, Skype & Facetime or their social lives that seem to be strictly on screens these days since kiddos can’t play in-person. Thus, ask any kid what they want as a reward and chances are it’s no longer more screen time. In fact, my kiddos have so much screen fatigue that they’ve actually requested technology free days. And for Christmas they’ve asked for books, not a book online, not an audio book, an actual book they can hold. Once I heard this I knew precisely where I needed to go for a broad variety of topics, titles, ages, reading levels, and most importantly QUALITY books (yes, Scholastic has cheap books, but they are cheap books, I’ve had to literally throw a few away after a bit of liquid spilt on them)…I prefer to invest in our home library. If you’re looking to invest in your Home Library this Christmas then Usborne Books has you covered!
