Holiday Stay at the Hershey Lodge

My family was given complimentary stay at The Hershey Lodge through the Sweetest Families Blogger Program 2023. As always, all opinions are my own. Last weekend we headed to Hersheys for a sweet stay at the Hershey Lodge. It was our first time experiencing the lodge stay. We stayed at The Hotel Hershey over the summer and we loved it, but we had heard great things about the Lodge being perfect for a family of young kids. So we wanted to check it out! Check in From the the moment you enter the Hershey Lodge, you feel at home. The place is so inviting, warm, cozy and comforting. We could stay all day long just at the lobby sitting by the fireplace and admiring the beautiful holiday decoration and stunning Christmas tree. At check in you get complimentary Hershey chocolate bars and they also offer a kids check in for fun. Kids get to sign the “kids at Hershey Lodge” guest book, participate in a Hershey’s candy guessing game, and receive their own chocolate surprise. …

Our Stay at The Hotel Hershey, PA

My family was given complimentary stay at The Hotel Hershey through the Sweetest Families Blogger Program 2023. As always, all opinions are my own. If you are thinking about coming to Hersheypark and are wondering where to stay, The Hotel Hershey is the place! While there are plenty of places to stay while visiting Hershey in PA, there is nothing compared to staying and experiencing one of the official resorts of Hersheypark. You can pick between The Hotel Hershey, The Hershey Lodge or Hersheypark Camping Resort. Last weekend we packed our swimsuits and drove to The Hotel Hershey for an overnight stay. We live 10 minutes from Hershey and it was a fun way to escape for a staycation so I am excited to share a little bit of our experience and I hope I can help you if you are planning to visit soon. About the Hotel The Hotel Hershey was opened by chocolatier Milton S. Hershey in 1933 and is a one-of-a-kind destination with rich history. Is located high atop the town of …

Spring Season at Hersheypark

I received complimentary season pass to visit the park in exchange for a media coverage. As always, all opinions are my own. For many years, Hersheypark has been on my bucket list! After moving from NJ to PA on Christmas last year, I finally got the opportunity to visit the park with my family during the winter season of Christmas CandyLane. And now that I am living just a few minutes away from the park I can not wait to explore and have fun at Hersheypark all year round! With that being said, if you haven’t heard the news yet, I am excited to announce that I am one of the Hershey Sweetest Families for 2023! They have chosen me to be part of a blogger team who will be sharing all about Hersheypark experiences! Together with my family, I am hoping to be helpful in answering any questions you might have about the park and also share all of our experiences at the Sweetest Place on Earth!!! So let’s start talking about the spring …

GATSBY- Low Calorie and Low Sugar Chocolate Review

I received this product for free from MomsMeet.com to use and post my honest opinion. Compensation for this post was provided. Chocolate is one of my favorite treats and I usually like to have a piece of chocolate after lunch or dinner, but knowing the calories and the fats in chocolate I try to stay away from it as much as I can. So when I heard about GATSBY Chocolate low sugar, low fat and low calorie I knew I had to try it. GATSBY Chocolate is the lowest calorie chocolate on the market with half the calories of other premium chocolate. It was created by the cofounders of Halo Top ice cream which I love and always buy. They spent over a year working on the recipe with their experience innovating a timeless classic treat to combine great tasting with low calorie and I’m so glad for that. I think that for any chocolate lover like me, the idea of a treat that we can eat more of without thinking twice about the calorie …

A Day Trip to Sesame Place in Langhorne PA

I received complimentary tickets to visit the park in exchange for a media coverage. All opinions are my own. This weekend we took a trip down to Pennsylvania to visit Sesame Place amusement park. Sesame Place is located in Langhorne, (just outside of Philadelphia) and is a park themed entirely to the world & characters of the kid’s show: Sesame Street. Since the park is only about an hour away from our home in New Jersey we left at around 9 am (the park opens at 10 am) and got there just a few minutes past 10. Parking at the park is $30 and for preferred parking (which lets you park closer to the park) prices start at $50. We received preferred parking ticket and were able to park pretty close to the entrance! When you arrive at the entrance of the park, all bags will be checked. You can bring in water but no outside food. They will check your bags first and at the second gate, the staff will scan your tickets, and …

Family Fun Adventure to Diggerland USA

I received tickets to Diggerland USA in exchange for an honest review/media coverage. If you are looking for a unique place to take your kids, you have to visit Diggerland! Diggerland is the only construction themed adventure park in all of North America! “Here children and their families drive, ride and operate heavy machinery in a safe, family-friendly environment. Diggerland is the most unique amusement experience in the world.” Yesterday we had the chance to visit this gem for the first time. We had such a fun day and I shared a few highlights of our day over on Instagram and got tons of questions about our visit. So on this post, I’ll give you all the insider information to make sure you have the perfect day at Diggerland NJ. The Rides The park opens at 10am and so does the Water Main waterpark but the dry rides only starts at 12pm. So we planned to arrive at 11am. It was perfect timing to walk around and explore the park and also get our stuff …

Swim Lessons at Goldfish Swim School in Springfield, NJ

This post was done in partnership with Goldfish Swim School in Springfield, NJ and we received free classes, however, all opinions are 100% my own. If you follow us on Instagram, you probably have seen that the kids are taking swim lessons at Goldfish Swim School in Springfield for the last few months and I wanted to share our experience with swim lessons because they’ve been such a positive asset to our lives. I’m not a parent who like to over schedule my kiddos. I believe in extracurricular activities, but I really cherish our time home and not having to run from event to event yet. However, I also believe that swim lessons are a MUST. Summer is coming soon and we are basically always around water and having a sense of ease knowing my child can get to safety in case something happens is a top priority in my book. My four year old son Gabriel took a few swim lessons when he was a baby. He has always been happy around water. But …

Liberty Science Center- Wobbly World Exhibit

Thank you Liberty Science Center for inviting us to preview the Woobly World Exhibit. As always, this post is 100% my opinion. Now that temperatures are getting colder, I’m always looking for activities where kids can explore, release some energy and have fun.

In addition to the already amazing exhibits and experiences, LSC is also offering an immersive exhibition called Wobbly World which is exclusively for kids 5 and under. Young guests are invited into a bright, interactive, slightly off-kilter wonderland to explore balance, motion, an cause and effect. The Wobbly World exhibit is located on the second floor.

We had the chance to meet Cas in person and learn more about this amazing collaboration! My boys had so much fun exploring the whole space. …

This post is sponsored by the New Jersey Lottery and tickets were provided for creating this post! As always, all thoughts and opinions are my own. I love to have gifts on hand for people that are often forgotten around the holidays. The people who deliver our packages, the secretary in our doctor’s office, swim class instructors, hairdressers, our neighbors. I’m thankful that I have an inexpensive, yet sought after holiday gift idea for all of these people: the New Jersey Lottery The New Jersey Lottery has four Holiday themed Scratch-Offs available for the holiday season.
