Amazon It List: Summer at home edition

 


A few fun finds relevant to summer - especially give our more-at-home situation this summer!  This will be an interesting summer (trips cancelled, camps cancelled, play dates minimized, visits with family/friends limited). What Amazon finds have you found lately (bonus if they entertain the kids)?
 
With all the added time at home, I've been working overtime to spruce up my home and carve out little areas that feel different.  My screened in patio feels like a little getaway right now, and plants are adding to that feeling. I love this hanging planter that I just got, now I just need to fill it!

I'm a Yeti fanatic (I've tried other versions, and Yeti just works best for me), so stocking up on my summer drinkware, this rambler Yeti is great for cocktails and wine for your summer drinks outside!

And speaking of outdoors: the pools are closed in our area this summer, so we're thankful to already have a blow up water slide that our kids love (and will make them tired after an afternoon playing on it). Here are a few similar options: 

Our weekend fun revolves around picnics with family and friends where we can be outside and remain 6+ ft away, and so a good picnic blanket/mat is a must! I'm also very into this picnic basket/cooler situation!

My husband has been buying any and all outdoor yard games to occupy our kids while we work and have some family fun in the evenings or at said picnics. Our current favorite is corn hole or bags, depending on where you are from. :) And this one is portable and lights up for night games! Here are a few others:

I'm an ice cream lover, but I've been cooling off with frozen fruit that almost magically turns into ice cream! ✨My whole family loves this (so easy to use and clean) frozen fruit soft serve maker, and customizing our own flavor mixtures.

In spending a lot of time multi-tasking at home these days, on a whim, I got this phone holder which adds another screen to my at-home work station and easy to stay up to-date on incoming messages.

I'm loving simple tops that can go from Zoom calls to walks around the neighborhood. I also love the puff sleeve trend happening. The detail on this one is subtle, yet fun ( and comes in multiple colors)!

Anyone else living in yoga pants?  Literally 95% of the time for me... so I picked up this pair in a fun blue color (they have more neutrals, too) because they're light weight and thin, but still have some compression to them.

Nora has the long sleeve/pant version of these sweet little pjs. They have quickly become her favorite because they are so soft. They come in many color options, and light weight for summer!

Like almost everything else in my life, my jewelry has been simplified.  I wear subtle ear cuffs that I hardly even take out - and I am ready to switch out my current ear cuff for these ones!
