A Day at Grant’s Farm in St. Louis, MO

We were provided with vouchers to use during our visit to Grant’s Farm. All opinions are my own.

The summer is a great time to get out and explore family attractions around town. Last year we took our two oldest boys to Grant’s Farm and they really enjoyed it. Last week seemed perfect to take all three of my little adventurers to see what kind of fun we could get into together. Caution: This post is slightly picture-heavy :)

If you’ve followed Nifty Mom from the beginning, you may remember when I used to post weekly coupon match-ups and daily deals. I was always on the hunt for the best deals and saving money was my passion. That was up until about 2 years ago. That was when life got in the way.

Family Sun Protection Tips

“I participated in an Ambassador Activation on behalf of Mom Central Consulting for Banana Boat® Sun Care. I received product samples to facilitate my review and a promotional item to thank me for participating.”

I have been spending a great deal of time focusing back-to-school time on Ethan since he will be entering Kindergarten in two weeks. But I can’t forget about Chase, who will now be heading off the preschool this year. He is just as eager to be going to school and can’t wait to learn more.

A Little Back-to-School Prep & Supporting Teachers

Thank you to Great Clips for sponsoring today’s post and inspiring my family to support teachers. 


Back-to-School time is terrifying for me this year. Extremely terrifying and slightly depressing. My oldest is going to kindergarten. I’m not ready for this transition, but I only have two and a half weeks to prepare myself. Aside from the emotion preparations, there are a lot of things we still need to do.
