All American Favorites

College students LOVE care packages! College can be a challenging time. These young people are often leaving home for the first time, sometimes off to an unfamiliar place away from friends and family. Let them know you care and are thinking about them with a care package from Canterberry Gifts!

Away From Home 101

The Away From Home 101 Gift Basket is such a great idea! So many young college students are trying to become independent, and this gift basket allows parents to "help" a little bit with necessities and some treats. It's so hard to let your new adult go, isn't it?

Boredom Buster Care Package

The Boredom Buster care package is filled with fun and distraction for those days when your college student has had enough of chemistry and trigonometry. It's packed full of games, snacks, puzzles, and much more.

It's Game Time Care Package

It's Game Time is a fabulous care package for your shy college student. Send them one of these and they'll make friends fast! There are enough goodies in this package to schedule a game night that will entertain everyone on your student's dormitory floor.

Keep Hanging In There

The days filled with exams can be exhausting, so motivate your college student to keep on task with the Keep Hanging In There care package. Sometimes just knowing someone is back home rooting for you helps you to refocus and get it done!

Midnight Munchies

A care package is a welcome relief to a college student. They spend countless hours studying, attending lectures, tromping across campus in rain, and sometimes feeling very lonely. Let them know they are on your heart with a care package from Canterberry Gifts!

From The Ground Up - Cauliflower Snacks #review

Disclosure: I received product at no charge in exchange for my honest review.

Cauliflower has become quite the superfood in recent years. First there was cauliflower pizza crust, and now, for your ultimate no-guilt snacking pleasure, there are now cauliflower snacks! From The Ground Up is an award-winning line of delicious cauliflower-based crackers and pretzels that have a serving of veggies in each 1oz. snack serving. The snacks are Non-GMO Project Verified, Gluten Free Certified, and made with vegan ingredients. From The Ground Up snacks are a fun and tasty way to sneak in some nutrition at snack time.

Consumers were asking for a veggie-based snack that actually had increased nutritional value, so the brand team began looking at the vitamin and fiber rich cauliflower since it’s so versatile and seemed to really be resonating with people. The products taste as delicious as the mainstream versions and have all the characteristics that a better-for-you customer is looking for. The crackers come in three flavors, including sea salt, cheddar, and nacho. The pretzels come in original flavor in sticks and twists shapes. The cheddar cauliflower crackers are my favorite!

Fall Farmhouse Decor - Farmazon Shop Now Open

Disclosure: This post contains affiliate links.

Rustic Raffia Pumpkin

Fall is just around the corner, and the Fall Farmhouse Decor shop is now open at Farmazon! Now is the time to change up your decor by adding some pumpkins, sunflowers, fall leaves, and acorns. Just a few harvest touches and your home will be ready for crisp cool weather.

Cast Iron Pumpkin Trivet

Pumpkin decor can last all the way through October and Halloween, November and Thanksgiving, as well as a few white pumpkins for the Christmas holidays. Adding just a few pumpkins in your main rooms is a cost-effective way to transition into the fall.

Ceramic Tealight Lantern Pumpkin

Your front porch is always a great place to place real pumpkins, and to showcase your fabulous carved jack-o-lantern for Halloween. Next summer, I hope to plant a pumpkin patch on our farm! Inside the house, I prefer to use artificial pumpkins in my decor so that I don't have to worry about rotting pumpkins.

Glass Pumpkin Candy Jar

Your entryway and living room are perfect places for fall decor vignettes. Try to group your fall decor in threes, such as a pumpkin, a garland of colorful fall leaves, and maybe a "harvest blessings" sign, all available in the Farmazon Fall shop. I always reach for a mixture of materials, such as wood, glass, and fabric. Pumpkin decor in the kitchen is also wonderful!

Wood Tabletop Pumpkin

If you REALLY love fall decor and have bunches of it, you can group 5 or 7 items together. I always prefer to work with an odd number of decor items. When setting up your fall display, it's also fun to add risers under one or two items for extra height. Use a candle or lantern to add some ambiance!

Metal and Wood Pumpkin

You can find all these pumpkins, and hundreds more fall decor items, at Farmazon. Take a peek at my Farmhouse Christmas Decor shop too and combine your purchases to save on shipping costs. You'll also find hundreds of items for your decor, including farmhouse, rustic, vintage, and shabby chic styles. Please "heart" my shops while you're shopping.

Disclosure: I received product at no charge in exchange for my honest review.

Bring home the farm and delight your baby with this charming Farm Friends wooden baby book. These layered pages are made of chunky plywood that is easy to grasp, easy to open, and easy to carry. The pages are bound together with a sturdy cord that makes turning the page simple.

These cute farm animals have such sweet faces! Farm Friends measures about 6"x8" so it's perfectly portable and will easily fit into a diaper bag. Take it along in the car to keep baby happy and busy during travels around town and across the country.

I gave this Farm Friends baby book to my one year old grandson and he was instantly interested in it, grabbing at the cord and grasping at the pages. This book is a wonderful way to introduce books to your baby!

HABA makes fabulous developmental toys for children of all ages. I love their attention to detail and their focus on safety. Their toys are so much fun that children don't even realize they are learning as they play. I love the Farm Friends wooden baby book and so does my grandson!

Edushape Fish 'N Spell Fishing Set

Disclosure: I received product at no charge in exchange for my honest review.

Get your preschooler ready for school by incorporating learning games into their everyday lives, like adding the Edushape Fish 'N Spell Fishing Set to their bath time routine. This set includes dozens of wet and stick letters, fishing poles, and bait circles that stick to the letters.

Fish 'N Spell comes with four fishing poles, so your child can play in the tub alone or with a sibling, or in the water table or swimming pool with friends. The lowercase letters come in a variety of colors so children can practice naming their colors too. There's even extra fishing line included.

Assembling the fishing poles takes just a couple of minutes and the bait circles come in two sizes so children can challenge themselves by using the smaller bait circles. In addition to providing letter recognition opportunities, children can even begin spelling easy words like mom, dad, cat, and dog.

Fish 'N Spell also helps to develop hand-eye coordination, as well as both large motor skills (using their arms) and small motor skills (using their fingers). These letters, when wet, will stick to any smooth surface, such as bathtub walls and shower walls.

Fish 'N Spell even offers children the chance to work on counting skills. Count the number of letters in the child's name after spelling it out. Count the number of yellow letters. Count the number of letters as your child catches them.

Fish 'N Spell comes with directions on assembly of the fishing poles, as well as a couple of games that children can play with this set. Encourage your child to be creative and to come up with other fishing games on their own. I love this set and was so excited to give it to my 3 year old grandson!
