24 stocking stuffers for kids from AliExpress


The weather outside is getting colder, stores are getting warmer filling their shelves with Christmas goods. Its beginning to look a lot like Christmas.. do you feel that December is knocking the door and most fastest but most beautiful time of the year is coming?
December is a special gift month. I love to make gifts, so this is my most favorite time! Im picking gifts in advance, so I will not postpone it until the last minute.
It is especially fun to choose gifts for kids!
Since last year my son started to find small gifts in his stocing in December. Since I have ordered a lot of different things for him from AliExpress I was thinking of sharing some interesting and cheap ideas of what can be ordered from AliExpress :)

If you also like to order things from AliExpress this list can be helpful to you. Remember, that you have to order everything in advance, so the gifts will arrive before December.
All the things below were ordered by me and all the photos are made by myself.

Halloween preparation with kids


I wondered for a long time how to headline my post but I could not choose anything from various options, so there will be such a simple title :)
Today's post will be about Halloween, which takes place every year on October 31 and what we have prepared for the Halloween with my child. The post will be short, I will show you my photos of different simple ideas that you can do with your own hands.




Halloweeen style clementines

Since I like to do very simple but interesting things with my own hands, which can be shared with others, I wanted my kid to bring something to the kindergarten and share with his group mates. Since we don’t eat sweets, I asked the teacher if it was ok to bring mandarins to children. They are perfect at any point: they look like little pumpkins and children like them.
I picked up a black marker and began to draw various faces. Of course I am not an artist at all but children liked it and they gladly ate them :)

I wanted to make pumpkin muffins for teachers but they remained raw inside .. I had to throw them away and make my classic muffins, which turned out delicious as always. Recipe: muffins


Jack-o'-lantern

Since I knew that we would not eat a pumpkin in the near future (we still had one in the fridge), I didn’t see the point of carving this pumpkin and just drew some funny face on it :) it looks pretty cool!


Cups

If you want to arrange a themed dinner for your family or plan a party, draw scary faces on transparent disposable cups and pour something of bright color (orange, green etc.) on them. Quick, easy and interesting!






Decorations

Since we just started to celebrate Halloween, we have not yet collected a lot of things but those that are collected:

Pumpkin bag for snacks from AliExpress, link: a bag
Toppers (5 pcs) for food bought from AliExpress, link: toppers
Trick or treat bag bought from H&M kids department few years ago.


So simple! And all this can be done together with your kids, they will also like all these decorations :) I am saving up ideas for the next Halloween and I hope to share it with you then. I hope that you have found something interesting for yourself that you can do with your family or friends :)

Wishing you an amusing Halloween,
V.O.

Decorations for first birthday party from AliExpress


Today I will talk about decorations I ordered from AliExpress for my son`s first birthday party which we celebrated back in March.
Always order stuff from AliExpress few months before the event, cause it can take pretty long time to arrive. And I am preparing for the second birthday party already :)
How I made number 1 you can read here: how to make number 1

Light blue pompom ball. Came in 2.5 weeks. Was packed in bag with English instructions. Tied with white ribbon. Make it carefully, the leaves are very thin and can easily be torn. But the end result is very cute :) The pompom is not small, about 30 cm. My link does not work anymore, so I leave an alternative link.

Banner. Came in 2.5 weeks. Was packaged. Without a smell, the picture is clear and bright, the paper is not thin. Only 10 flags on the banner. My link does not work anymore, so I found something similar.

Star garland. Consists of two color stars, 32 stars on a garland. The stars are stitched. With pearl outflow. Ordered to decorate the feeding chair as you can see on the photo. I just cut a three-star line with scissors and attached to the bottom of the chair. It looks nice :)

Tablecloth with Mickey Mouse. It looks different from seller`s picture. Comes folded in a package. The print is quite bright but the tablecloth itself is very thin, can be easily torn. There was smell when I opened it but it disappeared. Tablecloth is disposable, only for one time use.

Cake topper with Mickey Mouse. The topper comes disassembled, it is very easy to assemble. There are 4 transparent stickers for attaching. Made from thick paper. But one con: black stripes on the white part. Not a big deal but a bit unpleasant. It looks nice on the cake :)

Number 1 balloon. Comes folded without packaging. The balloon is small, only 35 cm in length (inflated already). The colors are bright but if you inflate it with helium, as I did, then consider that it will not fly, since the amount of helium is small and the material is rather dense and it simply can not fly. I found a way out of the situation by hanging another balloon on it. Or just inflate it by yourself through drinking straw.
