Hi moms. I am looking forward to spend some quality time with my oldest daughter. I thought it would be nice to do some spa like activities. She loves doing the girly things like painting nails. I am looking for some kid friendly and fun ideas for us.

What can I do next?

My niece likes to come over and we soak our feet, apply a scrub (just me, not her since she's only two) and then apply lotion. That's a fun, easy and indulgent activity to do at home. Then you can paint nails after that too. Maybe you can make a pitcher of infused water to sip on too like at the spa. And then, of course, you have to head out to lunch or a movie together!

Lollilocks has kids mani's and pedi's or an adult salon is really cheap to do kids nails.

Hi J,
Don't you love our little girls!!! :0) We were just planning our mommy & girls "day out" too. A great thing to do is a cost effective way to pamper the 2 of you. You can get a great smelling body wash & sugar scrub, sparkling grape juice & yummy appetizers. Jump into your bath robes, then make foot baths (you can just use dish tubs, find them at walmart or target) with the wash & soak your feet. Then you can massage your hands with the yummy sugar scrub. Once you have relaxed enough, rinse & dry off. Apply nail polish to finger & toe nais & there you are a perfect spa day!

I also do mommy & daughter spa days if you are interested & all free of charge. I will message you with details. Have a blast with your daughter!

How fun to have a "girls day"...! I love it!
I can say my daughter loves to just go to the mall, walk around, get nails and toenails painted with some cool pretty flowers (for little ones one of the places here a nice place only charges $5 for them). Then maybe a fun big girl lunch somewhere that isn't fast food. I know my daughter thinks she is so grown up when just she and I go to lunch, she has her menu and it is so fun! If you are going to be inside and home then do nails, maybe rent one of her favorite movies and pop popcorn and hunker down and pretend you are having a sleepover together in your jammies?
Have fun!
