Adorable Easter Stuff for Kids:

  • Time to help the Easter Bunny fill those baskets! I’ve found the most adorable Easter stuff for kids. Everything from books, clothes, accessories, bath stuff, mealtime items, etc. Wait until you see the most stylish wool bunny hats!  Check out the post here.

Zoo Egg Hunt:

  • The Edmonton Valley Zoo is hosting an Easter Egg Hunt on March 31. There are two time slots (one in the morning and one in the afternoon) for kids aged 2-5. More info here.

Tiffany Pratt Winner:

  • Congratulations to Chelsea Livingstone who won my Tiffany Pratt VIP Meet and Greet contest on Instagram Story! She and three friends are off to hear Tiffany’s presentation at The Edmonton Home + Garden Show this weekend. They’ll sit front row and get to meet and chat with her beforehand. If you aren’t following Tiffany on Instagram, do it! She’s awesome, and so is her feed. I often do giveaways on Instagram, so make sure you’re following me too!

Edmonton Home + Garden Show:

  • There are a ton of fun events happening at The Edmonton Home + Garden Show this weekend. There’s a celebrity cake bake-off tomorrow (Saturday, March 24) at 3:00 pm to help celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the show. Also, The Maple Leaf Cup Floral Design Competition showcases 20 florists from across the country, competing to win a trip for two to Philadelphia in 2019 to represent Canada at the World Cup of Flowers. Plus, you can win a ton of amazing prizes. See the full list here. 

Style File:

  • I’m so excited about “Style File,” a brand new feature here at KariSkelton.com. My goal is to share style advice and outfit inspiration while introducing you to interesting people. “Dressing Boho Chic for a Physical Job” showcases spiritual healer Amber Kupina. Read the post here.

First time going to Disney? We got so much great a First time going to Disney? We got so much great advice and awesome tips for how to maximize our first time at the park as a family.

➡️ The number one thing I want to pass along is to allow breathing room in your days there. Don't overplan it. Try not to be SO scheduled that you miss the magic. ✨️

Of course you want to have a general plan of the rides you want to hit, your strategy for tackling the pack, etc. but leave space so when suddenly Goofy is walking down the street and your kiddo wants a photo - you have time. 

➡️ Book your hotel and park passes ahead of time for sure. Reserve a character dinner too (we booked ours the day before and got the last spot). 

There are a lot of to-the-minute schedules you'll find out there for how to hit every ride and try all the food in record time but for a family with young kids, I don't recommend it. Just go with the flow and have fun! 🤗

➡️ Make sure to head a few reels back and see how we surprised our seven-year-old with the trip! Ask any questions below. ❤️ Like and save this post if it was helpful for you.

More Disney tips coming to my Reels feed and KariSkelton.com this week!
