Hanukkah Gifts

Now that the Haggim are over, have you started thinking about Hanukkah yet. Many retailers have already begun discounting items that are the cheapest that they have been all year long.

Here are some cute ideas to get you thinking

A New Soda Stream Machine

We held out a long time before buying a soda stream, only because we had cut out soda almost entirely or only had it occasionally. But the rest of our family already had soda streams and we were fortunate to borrow one for 6 months when a family member was is transition. I’m not a seltzer drinker so plain water, doesn’t really make me excited. But the flavors are a lot of fun and making a combination of them is also fun. Over Rosh HaShannah, we combined the Cranberry Raspberry with the Gingerale.

Recently Soda Stream released a new Soda Stream product.

Our favorite flavor is the Orange Mango, although I find it difficult to find it in the stores. I was fortunate to be in a baby store in Columbia, Maryland where they must have had every flavor and picked it up on a whim. So glad I did. The only thing I found it I constantly was overflowing, so I had to be careful to pour the syrup in slowly as not to overflow.

Story Bots

I love watching the funny videos that JibJab.com has created. They have great greeting cards you can send to friends and family for special occasions.

They have created a new site for kids to help with learning the alphabet. Their political videos have always been fabulous, but I believe that this new site really puts them over the top on their creative talents. They have created Storybots, an great educational website that I’m sure will be a fun tool to helping my daughter develop her skills for the alphabet.

What do you think about it? Are there other great websites out there?
