Happy Thanksgiving Everyone! I hope you are all having a wonderful day, enjoying some nice, quiet family time. Are any of you going to brave the stores tomorrow? I really love the Black Friday / Cyber Monday sales, but you couldn’t pay me to actually go to any physical stores. Besides, it really seems like you can get just as good of a discount (or better) online. And most of the sales have already started.

So get cozy on the couch (if you need some help with that, read this) with your laptop or iPad, and do your holiday shopping in peace. I have rounded up some of the best deals I have found at some of my favorite stores, down below.

But first, here are a few of my favorite things lately…

• Parenting advice we don’t want – hilarious!
• Get more out of your cookbooks.
• Be careful about what you put into your mind
• Ask yourself this before checking your phone.
• These would be perfect for toddlers and preschoolers (and easy to clean!)
• We have a lot to learn from Sweden.
• And Finland!
• I want to visit every single one of these bookstores.
• Making reading fun again.
• I’m definitely still a Vienna expat!
• I love this World Traveler Pretend Kit.

And if you are looking for some amazing Black Friday/Cyber Monday deals, these are the best I have found:

• 20% off and free shipping at Land of Nod (my favorite sale of the year!)
• 60% off the 1st month of any subscription at Little Passports
• 70% off the 1st month of any subscription and 40% off all boxes at Green Kids Crafts
• 60% off the 1st month of any subscription at KiwiCrate
