February 3, 2016 by hewella1 Leave a Comment

It is getting so expensive to have a night out, especially if you have kids. I am always looking for ways to save on babysitting costs so that I can enjoy more time with just my fiance and myself. When we do have an opportunity to go out, I don’t want to have to spend a fortune just to do so.

You can make a “busy bag” to keep in the car so that you don’t have to worry about leaving it at home. The items below can be stored either way. They are a great alternative to pulling out your phone or tablet to keep your child occupied in a restaurant. I use that as a last resort :).

I love the holidays! I am so excited that I get to share all of my family traditions with my daughter, as well as making a few new ones of our own.
