1. Springtime - and time for outdoor play

When I dream of warm weather and Spring, there are certain things that always come to mind.  My balcony garden and spending time outside.  If you're lucky enough to have outdoor space and you're shopping for your garden, perhaps you're looking into wooden swingsets.

CSN Stores has recently come up with a new site that is entirely devoted to outdoor furniture from swing sets, bikes, slides, and all sorts of special items for children's outdoor play.  This particular playset is under $700.



Swing Town - MA3101 - Phoenix Swing Set

If you're lucky enough to have the space to set up a play area for kids - you might want to check out their offerings. 

But for those of us who live in apartments and condos, we can look forward to warm weather and a walk to the nearby park.

4. CSN Stores - KidKraft Step N' Store Stool Giveaway (2 Winners)

One of the items that gets the most use in our bathroom is our step stool. The kids use it to wash their hands and they like to store little items in the step storage area. My husband and I use it to reach the top shelves of our storage cabinets. Sometimes I even pull it out of the bathroom and use it to reach the top shelves of my bookcases! Thanks to CSN Stores, I have the opportunity to offer a giveaway not one but TWO KidKraft Step N' Store Stools.

If you read yesterday's bathroom post, I'm sure you expected some sort of bathroom book holder giveaway from CSN. Now I'll be perfectly honest with you. I did an online search for a shelf or rack that would work for books in the bathroom. After all, CSN Stores is a huge group of over 200 online stores so I thought something interesting might pop up in my search. CSN does has a ton of bookcases and other storage products, and there were plenty of interesting options that I found. The Lexington Studios Bathroom Reading Book Organizer is one option. The Little Colorado Potty Chair with Accessories comes with a built in book rack, but it is meant for toddlers. Good options but I thought not everyone would find them useful.

Everyone can use a good step stool though, right? CSN Stores has kindly offered to giveaway a KidKraft Step N' Store Stool to two (2) Brimful Curiosities readers. I don't personally own this step stool, so I can't offer a review, but it has received several favorable comments on both CSN and Amazon. Each winner will be able to choose a KidKraft Step N' Store Stool of their choice valued at $24.95 or less. There are several varieties and colors available in this style, including a pretty cool John Deere tractor design.





To enter to win a KidKraft Step N' Store Stool ($24.95 or less), visit CSN Stores and leave a comment mentioning the step stool color/design you'd choose if you won.

5. A Book and a Bubble Bath - Reading aloud in the bathroom

My daughter threw a huge temper tantrum last night. No, it wasn't over a toy or anything else that would usually set off a child. She became upset because I told her that we didn't have time for our nightly read-aloud. A week ago we began reading a chapter a night from The Mrs. Piggle Wiggle Treasury. I recently picked up copy of the book in the Borders Bargain section because I remembered liking the stories as a child and thought my daughter might also like to listen to them. Like is an understatement. She loves the stories and looks forward to the nightly dose, giggling over the silly cures.

We've been strapped for time lately, so I have been reading a chapter to her while she takes her bath. Finding time to read aloud to kids, especially finding time to read a chapter book isn't exactly easy. My toddler son is too young to listen patiently to a chapter book so that makes trying to find some one-on-one reading time with my daughter even harder. Turns out that bath time works perfectly because she can play while also listening. Plus, it is right before bedtime so it's a great way for us both to wind down. She won't be needing Mrs. Piggle Wiggle's radish cure anytime soon!


Lots of people read in the bathroom, whether in the bath or on the toilet. In fact, there is a whole series of books meant for bathroom reading -- those Uncle John's Bathroom Readers. Plus, don't forget the Reader's Digest. That's a standard in my parent's bathroom. In fact, in June some brave individuals even celebrate National Bathroom Reader Week. No, I'm not kidding. Look it up!

Where am I going with this? Well, the problem with reading in our bathroom is that there is not really a good place to put the reading materials. I have a basket on top of the toilet that we use currently, but I'm a little concerned that the book might accidentally fall off and end up in the bowl. So here's what I'm wondering. Why don't more bathroom vanities include a book holder or rack?

This week, thanks to CSN stores, I'll be giving away a bathroom accessory to a lucky reader. Bet you can't guess what it is! Watch for the giveaway in a few days. Can you stand the suspense?
