We're wheelin' and dealin' today with specials from HearthSong! They have a great outlet center with specials on creative toys and games, including some super sales for your transportation-loving tots. Ready, set, go!

The Fantastic Fire Engine above is 40% off. The wooden truck comes with 2 ladders, a fire hose with nozzle, and two connecting hoses. You can buy accessory packs (like one with the firefighters) separately, which are also on sale.


I love this Car-Shaped Play Mat, which is 49% off. It's fairly small, but packed with highways, city streets and railroad tracks perfect for Matchbox cars and toy trains.

HearthSong even has an adorable Car-Themed Lounging Pillow, great for your kids to use when they're reading, watching a movie or just want to sit back and relax. That's 42% off right now.





mama's slice of the pie
I am a huge fan of Empoword, a company run by two women who are devoted to sharing the power of the words we choose and thoughts we think! Today, I'm drinking out of my GRATITUDE mug (I have a whole collection of their mugs with words like love, wonder, imagine and giggle) and I swear it subtly reminds me to be grateful for all that I have. My cup runneth over! ;o) Also, their vitamin t's are so cool, with a "supplement label" on the back just like you'd see on a vitamin bottle.

So, here's the deal. Through the month of November, Empoword is offering their GRATITUDE mugs and t-shirts for 25% off. And if you use this link, you'll get an additional 5% off! I think they make great holiday thank-you gifts (think teachers, mail carriers, hairdressers, etc!).
