AFFILIATE LINKS

This website contains affiliate links through the Amazon Affiliate Program and possibly a few other affiliate programs as well. We are a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for us to earn fees by linking to Amazon.com and affiliated sites.

Some of the links on this website are only to show examples of the types of supplies you might need for a craft or activity, and are not intended to endorse a particular product or brand. I urge you to use those links for information, but to buy locally if similar products are available for cheaper prices. 

If you click on an affiliate link and purchase something, we might get a small commission from the sale. This doesn’t affect your price on the seller website in any way. It also doesn’t make me value you any less as a reader if you decide to ignore all the affiliate links and never even click on them. I am just glad you’re here and hope that the information I post is helpful to you and your family!

Commissions of sales through affiliate links help keep this website running, so if you decide to purchase through affiliate links, thank you so much for your financial support!

PRODUCT REVIEWS

Any product or service reviews on this website are my personal, honest opinions. I do not and will never recommend products or services that I don’t use and like myself. So, even if I happen to receive a free product or service, I will always give my honest opinion about it, even if it’s unflattering to the company, brand, or product reviewed. If I do happen to receive a free product or service, I will always disclose it in my review. Reviews of products and services are first and foremost for informational purposes that hopefully are helpful to my readers, and are never meant to convince you to buy something you don’t need or want.
