Here’s my list of Top 10 Fun items to buy that inspire creativity, play and silliness.
1) Fake Snow Balls
Living in Austin, Texas, where snow is a rare sight, why not bring the winter wonderland indoors? Gift a set of fake snowballs and watch as your living room transforms into a battleground for epic snowball fights. Embrace the joy of the season, no matter the climate.
2) Miracle berries + variety of foods to test on
Do you know what miracle berries are? They make sour foods taste sweet. Combine this with some super taster strips – and you have a whole night of food experiementation. Challenge taste buds and create a unique dining experience that will be remembered long after the holiday season.
3) Flashlight – I never met a kid who didn’t love a flashlight. So illuminate your holiday nights with the timeless gift of flashlights. Encourage a game of “Hide and Seek in the Dark” or be prepared for the next power outage or ice storm. A simple yet versatile gift that sparks joy in both children and adults.
4) Duct Tape – Gift vibrant rolls of duct tape and let imaginations run wild. Combine it with the cardboard boxes from your online shopping haul to create anything from futuristic forts to colorful costumes. A simple yet effective way to nurture creativity in a hands-on, DIY manner.
5) Austin Event Calendar – Yes – I have the photo for October, so I’m partial to this gift. But it gives you loads of ideas month by month of events to enjoy in Austin. Perfect for locals and visitors alike, this gift ensures that the fun never stops, offering a plethora of ideas for every season.
This lovely family got a two-part photo session. We started out in the fog at the Butterfly Bridge and Central Library – but once the rain started, we had to call it quits. So we met up again at the park behind Central Market for some additional family pics.
