Ultimate Party Meatballs

Our daughter loves meatballs.  It’s one of her favorite foods to eat.  Maybe because they’re a “mini” food, I don’t know but if meatballs are on the menu, she’s a happy girl.  Last May when her BFF graduated from high school, at her open house party there was a slow cooker full of meatballs.  Amber was in heaven, as a matter of fact she was talking about those meatballs all summer (yeah, she needs some more extra curricular activities apparently).

Learn About Science While Having a Spa Day

Earlier this week Team Mom sent us a Scientific Explorer Kit.  Scientific Explorer has a number of Spa Kits that allow girls to make a beauty item while they learn about chemistry, physiology and physics.  The kit we received to review was the Bath Fizzer Kit.

A spa kit doesn’t always have to be “girlie” either, so if your daughter is a tomboy, she still may enjoy it because you can get a little messy while making the items.
