Family Friday: Magna-Tiles Dino World
This post may contain affiliate links and CorporetteMoms may earn commissions for purchases made through links in this post. As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.
Magna-Tiles have gotten fancy! My youngest is going through a dinosaur phase and he’d love to get a set of these.
This Magna-Tile set comes with four dinosaurs and over 30 volcanic and vegetation blocks of varying shapes and sizes. The options for imagination are endless, especially if you add in any other Magni-Tile sets you may already have.
I often take a set of Magna-Tiles on the road — they’re perfect for entertaining my kids at restaurants or when one is waiting for the other to finish an activity.
Magna-Tiles Dino World is $79.99 at Target and also available at Amazon.

Low stakes question. Please tell me it’s reasonable that my 2.5 year old (3 later this year) sometimes prefers to wiggle around the carpet vs. sit nicely and listen during circle time?
No other concerns, often times he’s front and center and paying attention, but when it’s something that doesn’t interest him…he just rather wiggle.
My mantra this morning is – “I will NOT comment on the post in my neighborhood moms Facebook group (even thought they are making some very inaccurate statements). I will NOT engage with the FB moms on this point.”
Unrelated – Does anyone have particular recommendations for a fidget bracelet for a 4 year old boy? My son has taken to pulling at his socks when he’s bored at school (such as during rest time or circle time), leading to 50% plus of the sock being unraveled by the time we pick him up. I just can’t keep going through 5 pairs of socks a week. (Yes, he needs to wear socks because he has some foot/ankle issues that require him to wear SMO braces, which require socks.). We are thinking a fidget bracelet might give him an outlet/keep his hands busy. Thank you!!!
I’m due at the end of April. Is there a typical time in the fall for sales on bigger-ticket baby items? I’d love to take advantage of post-Christmas sales, for example, but I’m not sure if items like cribs, dressers, car seats, and strollers would be affected by those sales. Any advice? A few of the brands we have in mind to explore are Uppababy (the Cruz and maybe the Mesa), Clek, and maybe Pottery Barn Kids for furniture…
Happy Friday! Low stakes poll-
Your 6 year old is out of underwear because no one has had time to do laundry in over a week. Do you:
A) send them to school without?
Or
B) pull a dirty pair out of the laundry basket?
I would say asking for a friend, but let’s be honest here….
What are folks looking forward to this weekend? I’m looking forward to a quiet evening doing laundry after the kids are in bed while it pours buckets outside, and not looking at my work email.
Any recommendations for a protective but thin iPad case? Is for a (fairly nondestructive) toddler on a flight and hoping not to take up too much room in the diaper bag.
