This coloring set seemed like a great idea. My daughter is not so great at staying within the lines, or on the paper for that matter. So I thought this "mess free" package would be a great way to distract her while I was making dinner or folding laundry. And it was, as long as I didn't consider a snowstorm of glitter all over my house a mess. My daughter loved it, but my house did not.
As a first time mom I had no idea what baby items were absolutely necessary and what items would end up being frivolous. This is a guide of those items I have tested and found to be must haves as well as those that you can live without.
