SESAME STREET ‘ELMO’S PLAYDATE: SCAVENGER HUNT’ SPECIAL
DEBUTS ON HBO MAX THURSDAY, AUGUST 6
CELEBRITY GUESTS AMY SEDARIS AND GABRIELLE UNION
JOIN SESAME STREET MUPPETS ON A VIRTUAL SCAVENGER HUNT
(July 29, 2020 – New York, N.Y.) – Summer is in full swing on Sesame Street! Elmo and his friends are back with new games, activities, and celebrity guests – all from the safety of home – in a brand-new Max Original, Elmo’s Playdate: Scavenger Hunt, created and produced by nonprofit educational organization Sesame Workshop and available on HBO Max Thursday, August 6.
Silliness and surprise twists abound in the half-hour special, in which Elmo teams up with Abby Cadabby via video chat for a virtual scavenger hunt. Aided by Sesame Street friends Big Bird, Grover, Rosita, Oscar the Grouch, Bert and Ernie, Elmo’s dad Louie, and tiger Mr. Stripey, the duo invites children to join in the search for all seven items on their list using the printable worksheet linked here. Along the way, “Monster Foodies” Cookie Monster and Gonger whip up a tasty summer dessert, Amy Sedaris shares an easy craft the whole family can make, and Gabrielle Union leads Elmo and Abby in a sweet sing-along.
“Although summer looks different for many families this year, our Sesame Street characters once again show children that, with a little imagination, staying at home can still be fun,” said Kay Wilson Stallings, Sesame Workshop Executive Vice President of Creative and Production. “We’re grateful to our partners at WarnerMedia and HBO Max for their continued support as we strive to meet the needs of children and families through learning and laughter in these challenging times.”
“The wonderful residents of Sesame Street always know how to make us smile and feel a little better,” said Jennifer O’Connell, Executive Vice President, original content, HBO Max. “Our partnership with Sesame Workshop continues to bring joy to families through their educational entertainment made from compassion, understanding and fun.”
This special is the latest effort around the COVID-19 pandemic from nonprofit Sesame Workshop. Through Caring For Each Other, an initiative created by the Workshop in response to this crisis, families can access free resources specifically designed to provide comfort and manage anxiety, create routines, foster playful learning at home, and help children stay physically and mentally healthy.
Caring For Each Other is funded in part by Sesame Workshop’s new Critical Needs Response Fund, a crucial source of flexible funds designed to meet the urgent needs of children and families. To drive support for this Fund, Sesame Workshop has partnered with online fundraising platform Omaze to offer another virtual playdate – for one sweepstakes winner and a guest – with Sesame Street’s Big Bird and Abby Cadabby. The sweepstakes is now live and concludes on Wednesday, August 12. More details and official rules available here. No purchase necessary to enter or win.

Noodle & Boo Baby Items you Need Right Now.
I had the pleasure of receiving some items from Noodle & Boo and Tyler and I had our usual amount of fun unboxing the items they sent us to try out! I know you’re probably an unboxing junky like me and the next best thing to actually unboxing is watching an unboxing video, so before I tell you what’s IN the box, check it out…
Noodle & Boo products are made in the USA with only the finest ingredients, and are safe and gentle enough to be used on newborns and during pregnancy. And did I mention they smell exactly like a baby should smell?
I’m talking about that REALLY want to sniff a babies scalp smell. That innocent I’m only 1 week old smell that every newborn has, because why cover it up to smell like soap? Even if you don’t have a newborn, these products are just as great for toddlers and even the bigger kids like my son who is 8.
They have so many items to choose from, and most are sold in stores like target or off course online on their website too.
As a mom myself, I like to think of myself as a knowledge bank for new moms. Especially with a platform like this, I like to share only the best with you guys and right now, hand sanitizer is a must have. Anyone who is anyone is trying to get their hands on the good stuff, not the no-name “is this really just water” items the grocery and pharmacy stores are stocking these days, and well.. I’ll let you in on alittle secret.. pssst… they’ve got it! And not only is it real true hand sanitizer, it’s baby and kid safe hypoallergenic hand sanitizer, that you don’t have to be worried about touching your baby after sanitizer.
And what’s best is that new moms who may wasnt close family to visit their new bundle of joy during this crazy time can be sure to make them use it before touching the baby and they won’t smell like harsh alcohol. It’s 99% effective and perfect for toddlers too.
I’ve tried them and here are some of my favorites! Clock on photo to go to item page:
12 oz. Hand Sanitizer
Kills 99% of germs
NEWBORN DAILY ESSENTIALS
for complete care from head-to-toe
BABY LAUNDRY GIFT SET
Hypoallergenic and paraben free
REED DIFFUSER
for clean and fresh ambiance
CALMING BUBBLE BATH
for bath time fun & relaxation
The last item smells soooo amazing you can smell it through the package! Great for mom and baby or toddler bath time.
About the brand owner:
Christine Burger, San Fran small business owner who 15 years ago created a company because she couldn’t find safe skin products for her babies, and now sells online and Target, has a major success on her hands. Made in the USA Instant Hand Sanitizer and Ultimate Cleansing Cloths (and many other products), has made Noodle & Boo a Go-To in this pandemic. Recognized for its commitment to formulations made with biocompatible ingredients, each product is formulated to the highest standards.
*Disclaimer: I received items in exchange for my honest review and all opinions are my own.

MamarazziOnline with The Moms and Laura Prepon during Quarantine; You and I as Mothers
Join the conversation by liking and commenting on Just For Moms above!
Such an awesome #MamarazziOnline with The Moms and Laura Prepon
You and I as Mothers; sounds like something I’d want to read! Jersey Native Laura Prepon has published her new book and it’s on shelves now. Being a mom of a newborn is so difficult. But being a mom of a newborn, and a 2 1/2 year old, living in NYC must be the most difficult of all.
Laura is handling it with style and grace. She admittedly threw on the sweater she was wearing just for us, and that she is usually sporting a baby scarf shall these days since she spends most of her time breastfeeding her newborn son who’s name she would not spit out no matter how hard we tried!
We talked about her new baby boy and how much she was already prepared for isolation without even knowing it, about her daughter Ella “marking her territory” when new baby brother came home, and about the importance of routine in her home right now.
Limiting screen time is so hard these days when we are “sheltering in place”, but there are some great options like the Non-profit Child Mind Institute to get you and your children through these tough time. They have online times from 10am-4pm weekdays and cover topics for young children, teens, coping skills, special needs and more during this unreal time.
Here are some awesome screenshots from our zoom “Mom Time” as I like to call it. It actually gives me a reason to do my hair and makeup, and I couldn’t be more grateful for this to occupy my mind during this difficult time 
Melissa was trying out Laura’s side pony and I think she has a new favorite hairdo!
I can’t even lie, any time I see a zoom chat of squares, I immediately think of the Brady Bunch intro. Maybe that’s a good idea for next time!
If you know an essential worker you’d like to recognize during this difficult time – send The Moms Denise or Melissa a message or tag #Mamarazzionline nominating them. Who know’s, maybe they’ll wind up getting to speak to someone awesome like Laura!

Matching Christmas Pajamas for the entire family from Yaffi Fashion
Matching Christmas from Yaffi Fashion!
Gosh it’s finally starting to feel like Christmas now that we got our matching family pajama set from Yaffi Fashion!
You can get yours in time for Christmas too and get 10% off while you’re at it using code LOVEYAFFI10 for all products in Yaffi store.
Pajamas are a big part of our Christmas celebration here on our home. Growing up, my parents always let us open one gift from them on Christmas Eve and it was always our holiday pajamas. I was excited each year to see what they’d look like, and now in my home it’s no different eith my children as I’ve continued the tradition.
Although we broke tradition this year because the moment I saw this set online I just had to have them. When I saw the package arrive (only 4 days after I ordered!) I couldn’t wait to try them on and share with you all.
We put the pj’s on and got right in the mood to decorate for Christmas, and the tree is my boys’ favorite part to do. They like looking through all of the ornaments we’ve collected and made through the years and remember and cherish each moment which I love so much. Even our dog Sadie got in on the action! I think she was secretly wishing she had some matching cozy pjs too!
If you’re wondering where I got this set, click this link YAFFI FASHION and then when you click through what you want, it’ll bring you to three Amazon listing to check out. If you’re a prime member, shipping is even quicker.
Sizing is pretty straight forward for the sets, and I have to say they fit as they say – maybe even alittle bigger which is better to me. I believe the highest size in children’s is 8/9 year old but they actually fit both of my kids fine as you can see in the photos. Me and my husband both has a size medium and I thought they fit well also. If you gave a child bigger than 8/9, you can go for xs or small and it should be ok.
They don’t only have pajamas, they have other matching adult/child outfits and bathing suits which are really cute too! I actually tried a set for me and my youngest over the Summer and loved how it looked on us. You can check out the swimwear post here.
The material is good quality although in have a sence they may shrink a bit in the wash. That’s another reason I’m glad they run slightly big.
These sets would be PERFECT for family holiday card photos to send to friends and family.
This was such a treat and I can’t wait to wear them on Christmas Eve and take Christmas morning photos.
It doesn’t get any better than this!
You can get matching mommy/baby, dad/ baby, whole family, or even just husband and wife sets. Order yours now to have in time for Christmas!

How to Save Money at Six Flags
Six Flags ticket prices can break the bank and Six Flags Discount tickets can be hard to find.
At least here in NJ at Six Flags Great Adventure. I don’t know about the other popular theme park ticket prices like six flags magic mountain or six flags great america, but I’d imagine all six flags have about the same pricing structure.
#1. Season Passes
The best deal is the annual season pass that has a monthly reoccurring. For gold membership, it’s just $26 a month including tax for 4 passes. This includes free standard parking, entry to ther park any operating day, and bring a friend discounts. A six flags one day ticket will set you back $80+ if you buy it at the gate. That’s 11 months of payments if you gave the gold $7 a month plan. You can cancel any time after the first year, but why would you? You’re locked into that great rate!
This year they introduced diamond and diamond elite passes that offer even more, but your monthly payment will go up for it, so I stick to what works for my family.
#2. Coke Cans
Another way to save is coke cans or the leaflet flyers you can sometimes find at Dunkin Donuts shop counters. You can also check retailmenot.com or groupon since they’re known for deals and you may just get lucky.
#3. Scouts Days
If you know a boy scout or girl scout, you may just want to hit them up to find out if they plan on attending any scout days. If so, scouts in uniform can bring family members to the park on these days to receive a 50% off pass to enjoy the park with rest of the troops and dens.
Overall, the deals are out there, you just have to look. And with Freight Fest in full swing, the park is sure to be an exciting full morning to night day of fun.
Six Flags NJ Hours vary based on season so click and check ther current calendar.
Six Flags Parking Prices are free for members.
Six Flags Freight Fest is 6pm until close during the fall season leading up until Halloween.
Get the Six Flags free app to have access to coupons, local park info, and maps of the park.
On the app you’ll have access to bring a friend deals as well which is good for everyone! You get to bring a friend to enjoy the fun, and they get a discounted six flags ticket.
Alot of times they make these weekdays only, but there are the few tossed in for weekends. Sometimes cheap and someones even FREE! So my advice is get the app.
