As toddler moms, we’re always looking for the next best activity to keep your little one busy. Ebad and I are pretty good about not buying too many toys, but I do read lots of reviews when I do invest in one. More than just a toy, I want it to be an activity that Zidaan can enjoy and do multiple things with.

Although Zidaan is only 15 months old and won't remember much of anything till he's about 4, I want to start creating memories I can capture for him during Ramadan to show him when he's older.

It’s a lot to balance, and I’m not sure if it’s going to get harder or easier as I get better at it. As of now, I'm trying my best. Phew! That said, my little man is 4.5 months old today!
