Part of the reason we wanted to stay at Aulani was we knew we would be able to enjoy our time since it is completely focused on providing a great experience for families, rather than staying at a resort that accommodates kids but isn’t directly geared towards them. This was especially great at Aulani, as we were able to take Charlie down to the lazy river, pools, or to play on Menehune Bridge—the fun water play area for kids at Aulani. We loved spending time as a family there, seeing our toddler’s expression as she grew brave enough to meet and even hug the characters, and found it easy to relax and enjoy our vacation. We have added other Disney vacation experiences to our family bucket list after our time at Aulani, including a Disney cruise and the amazing Adventures by Disney experiences around the world.
What resulted was some fun—and messy—Jello sensory play! I decided we were going to go all out and have a messy play day with Jello. I used 4 boxes of Jello and divided the mixture into a flat party tray (make sure any tray has a raised edge) and a tupperware container where I added links and other baby toys for a little sensory digging fun. Jello sensory play like this is great for babies starting around 6 months (when they can really use the fine motor skills to dig and move the jello around) and as you can see it easily entertains toddlers as well!
Did you know that wearing coats in car seats can actually be really unsafe? As a mom to a toddler I struggle every winter in the car seat coat battle—and I know I’m not alone in that! So rather than fight the battle, why not just make it safer? That is what one company did when they designed a coat for a car seat, keeping kids safe and saving parents sanity everywhere! Thank you OneKid for partnering up on this video to help keep more children safe and warm in the car! Check out the new video below for more on the OneKid Road Coat and other ways to keep babies and toddlers warm and safe this winter. Seriously—I wish I had thought of that!
