Top Products for Kids at Home
Like most parents, I’ve been in survival mode lately. Between caring for kids who are at home all day, cooking, cleaning, and running a business- the days feel extra long!
I recently chatted about this in an interview with Journey Academy founder Dana Roefer, We talked about how we don’t have to have extensive lessons or fancy learning tools right now. Kids learn naturally doing everyday things like baking in the kitchen, going for hikes, or simple artwork. So, we’ve been doing a lot of that!
I’m also sharing some products that can make staying home with kids a bit easier and more enjoyable for the whole family. The best part is these are all available online, they’re in stock, and they’re offering a special discount just for you!
We’re also doing a giveaway of a “kids bundle” over at HAPPY PR’s Instagram so be sure to enter!

Hands-on projects are a great way to cure kids’ boredom at home, and DIY Gift Kits has do-it-yourself projects for everyone: from lip balm and bath bombs to hot sauce and gin (there really is something to entertain all ages!). My daughters loved making the bath bombs, and now they can have bath time fun for weeks to come.

These kits make great gifts for birthdays, holidays, or simply showing a loved one you’re thinking of them.
Baby Jack & Co. – Soothing Sensory Blankets
HAPPY Deal: 20% off with code LEARNING
Baby Jack & Co. makes blankets and sensory toys that promote learning. The Learning Lovey is a sensory blanket that showcases vibrant colors and designs, soft textures, and tags to play with.
Babies and toddlers love rubbing the tags, which can decrease their anxiety, increase comfort, and in turn, help them self-soothe and fall asleep.
Sprout Pencils – Plantable Pencils

The kids can take their art up a notch with Sprout Pencils, the world’s first plantable pencils.
They come in a variety of seed types – everything from flowers to herbs and veggies. Simply plant the pencil stub in soil once you’re done with the pencil, water it, and watch it grow in one to four weeks. It’s like an art class and a science class all in one!

I love finding ways to have my kids help out in the kitchen. It’s great practice for their developing motor skills and their math skills.

Foodstirs cookies are gluten-free, grain-free, and they taste as good as regular, less healthy cookies. They’re ready in just 25 minutes with six steps, and it’s also easy to make them vegan.
