Butter Blanket – I’ve used these towels for YEARS. They’re mega absorbent, have the cutest prints, wash up so well and fold nicely. They’re known for their tea towels but we also love their beach/bath towels! They recently launched butter blankets and their sooooo soft. Basically an adult swaddle. We’re all obsessed with them. Code TARA saves you 15% off!

Campsnap CS-8 Video Camera – This launched this year and I am SOOOO excited about it. It’s very similar to the original CS-8, but they make it smaller and geared towards kids! AH! So good. Comes with vintage filters to make your videos look like an instant classic. Screen free, too! Code TARA saves you 7%. Here’s the link to the tiny keychain one too!

Gui Gui Slime Haul – Comes with a ton of different slimes + mix ins. Brings me back to 2020 when my girls were OBSESSED with making it.
