Ten Ways to Celebrate Labor Day

Psychobaby's Top 10 Ways to Celebrate Labor Day 2014:

I recommend at least 30 of these

10. Head to the beach! You'll make some great memories, and collect enough sand in your belongings to feel summery until October. And while you're there, check out this list of 35 FREE Things to Do at the Beach with the kids!


 

9. While you're at the beach you might as well go boating! Don't forget the life jackets & water wings & juice boxes.

Think smarter, not harder.

8. Hit up the neighborhood pool. OR, fill the kiddie pool in the backyard.  There's no sand AND you don't have to get stuck in traffic on the way there. 

This might be the only PG movie out right now...

7. Take the kids to a fun summer movie! Two words: Air conditioning.

In my mouth now, please.

6.  Throw a backyard BBQ!  Or, convince a buddy to throw one. Then you won't get stuck washing all the dishes.  And make sure you bring something refreshing like this Watermelon Granita.

Peanut Butter AND bananas? I'm in.

5. Take a picnic to the closest park!  Another way to enjoy the day outdoors instead of stuck in your car on I-94! Bring along some of these delicious Banana Dog Bites. Check out more finger-food snack suggestions on our Pinterest Page.





4. Go visit Grandma & Grandpa! If you don't mind a road trip with the little ones, then head out early.  Plus, extra people to watch the kiddos while you can relax and fire up the grill. (Before you hop in the car, check out our tips and tricks to keep the kids busy during the drive!)

Yes, those are ALL water balloons. Guard your groin.

3. Take a nap. Your kids will definitely leave you alone for an hour, right? If not, set them up with daddy in the backyard with some of these awesome backyard games or maybe a couple hundred water balloons and then catch a few winks.  But be nice and maybe alternate so you both can catch a cat nap? 





2. Brave the stores for your last minute school shopping. HAH - just kidding. Oh, you really need that Hello Kitty trapper keeper? Good luck!

Sweater season is upon us - rejoice!

1. Save yourself some stress and save 25%! Avoid the crowds and still get your shopping done.  PLUS, you save 25% on EVERYTHING at Psychobabyonline.com from now until Monday night with the code LABORDAY25!  Now that is a good use of your 3-day weekend. 

Top 10 Summer T-Shirts For Kids

We all know that dads are the original hipsters, (tumblr tells us so) so they were cool before cool was cool. I mean, before the little one came along, I bet your late nights used to consist of loud clubs and beer pong instead of feedings and closet-monster hunting.  This Psychobaby My Dad Used To Be Cool Tee will at least give you the street cred you deserve, even while holding your little girl's Dora the Explorer backpack. 



  
With the upcoming Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle movie coming out, pizza fashion is totally BACK! The Psychobaby Eat 'em Up Pizza Tee  comes in sizes from personal pan to XL for whatever your rad little dude needs! Cowabunga!








Psychobaby All Sunshine Rainbow Tank
is bright enough to lighten the mood even on the cloudy gray days of summer.  All that's missing from this super cute kids tank is the lollipops...think about it.







We at Psychobaby, love tattoos! We love them on people; we love them on shoes; we love them on tees and tanks - but we know the little ones are too young to partake. SO, to keep the under-8 crowd feeling as hip as their inked-up mamas and papas we've got the Flying Sparrow Tank.







Suns Out, Guns Out!  We don't encourage toddler barbed wire tats, but we do love a kid in an I am a Rockstar Tank - even better if they've got chunky baby arms.






Staying cool this summer can also mean staying cute! Our  Freshly Baked Cupcake Tank covers all your bases without covering up too much of everything else! So, slap on the tank (and a whole lotta sunscreen) and greet the world with a smile...and sprinkles. 






The best part about the Triple Scoop One-Piece  is that this ice cream cone will never melt! Which means no messy cleanup - but even if you did happen to get a little chocolate dripped on this super sweet design, it would totally look like a sprinkle. (We promise not to tell!)







The Stella Blu Old School Tee is so fresh that we want 'em in our sizes.  However, they only come in pint-size packages to give your mini breakdancers some serious street cred.  Now, you just have to explain to them what a "boombox" is...good luck! 







What is nicer than seeing a smile and hearing a "have a nice day?" Teach your little ones manners at a young age with this bright and cheerful Have A Nice Day Tee  by Pop Kids.





Like we said, a cheerful greeting can make your WHOLE DAY better!  Why not start it off right with the Pop Kids ABC HI Alphabet Tee in Sunshine Yellow?  The Tee has the word "sunshine" in the title - what's more summer than that?



There's still plenty of summer left this year, so pick out your favorite sunny weather shirt and go have fun, Psychobabies!

Fourth of July Roundup: Food, Fashion & Fun!

Summertime Barbeques are the best part of the Summer season - which in Chicago lasts roughly three months, so we pack everything in pretty tight. There are birthday party BBQs, break-in-the-new grill BBQs, and of course, holiday BBQs. This year is extra awesome because the 4th of July falls on a Friday - which means an entire weekend of chillin' & grillin'! Get ready for your get-together with some of these super fun ideas for Fourth of July!

Food 

Obviously, the most important element of any BBQ is the food.  Here are some DELICIOUS looking Star Spangled Snacks that are sure to impress.

Just add Sparkler Candle...instant celebration!

* Patriotic Breakfast Toast - a healthy way to start the day before you see the dessert table...
* Taco Salad Flag - if you want to get technical, just mix in white cheddar instead
* Flag Fruit Kabobs - SOO easy and will offset all of the negative health effects from delicious  BBQ
* Chocolate Covered Pretzels Flag - another flag-themed dish...way more sugar than the fruit flag
* Watermelon Keg - FOR ADULTS ONLY...based on what you put inside.
* Sparkler Cupcakes - almost as good as regular cupcakes, but you get to light something on fire.
* Red, White & Blue Popsicles - made with fresh strawberries, blueberries, yogurt & honey
* Stained Glass Jello - obviously we saved this for last because there's ALWAYS room for Jello
* Grab one of our Hey Hey USA Placemats and save yourself a little clean-up!
 

Fashion 

Any old American can rock the red, white & blue on the Fourth of July, but the true fashionistas personalize their patriotism!

* Psychobaby World's Biggest Fan One-piece - A design for the World Cup, but applicable to pretty much any and all Summer BBQs
* Psychobaby Hey Hey USA Tee - It doesn't matter which of the 50 you're from, so show your home state a little love.
* Stella Blu Born Free Tee - seriously does NOT get more American than this! 
* Psychobaby Patriotic Gentleman Tee - It's too hot to actually dress up with suspenders, so this is the next best thing!
* Psychobaby World Love One-piece - Wear your flag on your chest with pride...and also your bum.
* Psychobaby Bomb Pop Tank - An absolute summer favorite! (Not just the dessert, this tank too!)

Fireworks and Fun!

In the land of the free and the home of the brave (enough to let their kids hold sparklers) it's important to be safe!  However, not everyone is old enough to partake in the pyrotechnics, so we've gathered up some crafts to make everyone feel involved in the celebration!

Super fun craft! Just don't glue yourself to the table...

* Safe Sparklers - much safer, less fire.
* Red, White & Blue Tin Can Candle Holders - add a citronella candle to ward away those pesky bugs
* DIY Flag Tee - not too messy and super easy!
* Fireworks Painting Project - pipecleaners and (washable) paints.
* Popsicle Stick Flags - really cute decorations! Just don't glue yourself to the table...

And last, but certainly not least: 
* Firework Safety Rules - print this off, put it somewhere EVERYONE can see it...just in case.


You can see all of these awesome ideas (AND MORE) to make your 4th of July Holiday BBQ awesome on our Fourth of July Pinterest Page.  Hope you all have a safe and happy Holiday!
