Our Family Wishlist
Erin Elizabeth Wells & Brian Weiss
As you may know, we bought a beach house in Florida... BUT we STILL plan to travel and keep our home base here, which means that while we have a few more "wants" for our new home, we are grateful for gifts that fulfill our current needs to avoid clutter in our new home and keep it attractive for renters.
What you find here are all things that we would be DELIGHTED to receive for any holiday, birthday, or "just because" reason. Thank you SO MUCH for supporting our journeys to be even more fun!
Gifts for our birthdays: Ella (June 27); Vivi (Sept 10); Erin (May 22); Brian (June 29)
can be mailed to our new home in Florida, please contact Erin (Text or FB message) for the best address.
While the girls both have ample clothing, if you find something you think they MUST have... here are a few recommendations:
Ella - Size 9-10 clothes; - loves Harry Potter, dragons, unicorns, princesses, sparkles, anything magical - prefers nightgowns, dresses, & skorts or bike shorts that can be worn under dresses.
Vivi - Size 5T clothes; - loves Super Monsters, Sing characters, & Trolls - Prefer long sleeve shirts, leggings, and two-piece PJs
NOTE: PLEASE MAKE SURE TO "CLAIM" THE GIFT on this list by clicking the blue "Give this Gift" button BEFORE purchase to avoid duplication.
Ella's Harry Potter dreams will be coming true soon, and what she MOST wants involves a laundry list of paraphernalia she wants to buy in Diagon Alley: Wand, an owl, Bertie Botts Every Flavor Beans, pumpkin pasties, etc.... If you want to TRULY help her make her wizarding dreams come true, THIS is what she really needs.
Ella is CONVINCED that she's a Hufflepuff... so if you feel the need to send her a physical gift rather than (or in addition to) a gift card, this could be a good option. ($13) (BTW: She's already getting robes.)
Ella has been expressing more interest in learning to cook, and this might be a great way to hook her into it even more. ($18)
When Vivi got her Poppy water bottle for her birthday in September, Ella was a little jealous. However, I think what would make her even happier would be this Harry Potter water bottle that she could sip out of every day. ($22)
Another great game option would be this one. Ella has been pouring over her Harry Potter Almanac since her birthday, and she is taking a Harry Potter Outschool writing class... so her knowledge of the magical world is becoming vast. I think she'd enjoy getting to show off that trivia knowledge in a game. ($18)
This could become a family favorite... many rounds of playing Cards Against Humanity at past Thanksgiving dinners (pre-kids) float through my head, and I have confidence that this is a game that would both thrill Ella (and may become even stronger motivation for Vivi to learn to read *hahaha*). ($40)
Ella's deepest interest seems to be in the fantastic beasts she's learned about through HP, so I know a lego set with Buckbeak and a thestral would be VERY well received! ($40)
We've got TONS of play-doh, and currently it's coming out almost daily for Vivi. But, what she might really love is some new and creative things to DO with it. This set with the multiple "extruder" style toys and various moulds seems perfect. ($32)
"Time for you check-up! Time for your check-up!" - One of Vivi's favorite pretend play games is giving a check-up to whoever will hold still. So, maybe it's time we get her an actual doctor's kit. ($39)
They want to help in the kitchen... but some tasks need extra safety precautions. It's time for some kids size safety gloves to protect small hands. ($9)
We would love two "official art galleries" for the girls to display their creations. I love this style with the Flagstone stain and the rainbow clips personalized with their nicknames: Ella and Vivi - if you have the ability to create something similar... then rock on! ($34 each)
Vivi LOVES Numberblocks!!! She has been binging these episodes for weeks. I think she would love to have some figures to use for imaginative play. ($16)
Vivi loves coloring time! This would get a lot of use for her (particularly when she's chilling while Ella does schoolwork.) ($9)
The girls could REALLY use a proper toiletries case to share. These LL Bean ones last like 10+ years, so I'd love to get one for them. I know... this isn't "Fun" but it's REALLY useful, so please consider gifting this one! Prefer: Medium - Soft Juniper ($35)
An Epcot Sci-fi Band that's true Brian geek cred - IYKYK ;). (Size 2XL - $23)
Backpack with built-in water bottle - great for Disney days, local hikes, or even beach days. (Blue Violet - $29)
My toiletries kit is anciently old and definitely ready to be replaced. I would love the Medium - Deep Admiral Blue ($35)
We have collected several art prints for our new home that still need to get framed so they can dress up the walls of our new home.
We're planning to bring them down to Michael's to get framed next time they have a big framing sale, but we'd love some help making that happen.
(Any Amount)
Want to buy us lunch or a snack for our next Disney Day? Gift cards are a great way to do that. We're grateful if you want to help us make our days even more magical. ($25 and up)
We OFTEN grab breakfast on our way to Disney (or really out and about when we're in a "rush"). So, if you want to buy us a Disney Day breakfast, these are ALWAYS appreciated :)
THE most appreciated present :) - A great way to support our travels! - Any amount appreciated.
