Despite their dentist’s warnings, my kids love gummy candies. If your kids are like mine, these cute holiday boxes would make a fun stocking stuffer. 

BonBon’s holiday gift boxes come in three sizes to satisfy even the biggest sweet tooth, and are filled with a mix of the company’s bestselling sour and sweet gummies. These would also make a great holiday party host gift.

These gummy (and yummy!) gift boxes start at $20.

My 3.5 year old goes to school 3 days a week and grandparents’ house two days a week. When I pick her up from school, she says a big hi, runs to me for a hug and then she shows me what she’s been working on. As in, a normal pickup. When I pick her up from grandparents, she always lies down with a blanket or something over her head. I play along to be all where is my baby, but I am becoming concerned about why she reacts this way when I pick her up from grandparents’ house. What do you guys think is causing this? She also goes to hide when grandparents come over to our house, so it’s definitely related to them and only them. She is excited to go to their house.

Proud of myself for doing a thing. It sounds ridiculous but our 4th grade girl was starting to need training bras (nothing super obvious, but it was time). I bought them, had a short but awkward conversation, and she put one on last night afterwards. My mom left this WAY too late – I definitely needed one a year before she got me one, so I’m glad I didn’t do that!

We are thinking of getting my two-year-old a mini indoor trampoline and possibly a scooter for Christmas. He’ll go berserk on the trampoline for sure but he’s pretty tentative with trying his balance bike, so not sure if he would actually use a scooter at this age. Any thoughts or recommendations?

And I’m on topic… my son’s adult molar enamel hasn’t fully formed, and he had to get a filling yesterday. The dentist was so gentle, and he was so brave. I’m feeling all the feelings about it because I thought we had been so careful about his teeth – no sticky sweets (but maybe too much dried fruit), we still brush them at night, very light on the juice. The dentist said “No sweets… it’s not his fault, but no sweets… maybe a sweet on Saturday.” But this isn’t a realistic plan, is it? He’s a great naturally balanced eater, tends towards fruits, veggies, meat, but likes chocolate, the occasional croissant etc. I can’t imagine us becoming really restrictive over a 9 year old (versus a toddler)? But I don’t want him to be like his dad – with more holes than teeth – when he grows up.
