Before we know it, the rush of the holiday season will be here. Start planning how you want to make your gifts stand out this year with these unique options the whole family will enjoy.
For Food-Loving Kids
Teach the kids about different cultures through food. Kalamata’s Kitchen takes readers on an adventure through Kalamata’s first day at a new school with her trusty sidekick, Al Dente, a friendly alligator. The dynamic duo is transported to a magical land of new ingredients that they are unsure they want to try. Being brave and trying new things help Kalamata and Al Dente work through their nerves and proves that being courageous and curious, they can get through anything.
For the Expecting Couple
Just because there’s a bun is in the oven doesn’t mean expecting parents have to miss out on flavorful drinks. Casamara Club delivers refreshing Italian spritz drinks without the alcohol. The alcohol-free club sodas are crafted like cocktails with layers of citrus, botanicals and a touch of real sugar for a perfectly balanced drink. At 15 calories each with only four grams of sugar, Casamara Club is the perfect after-dinner digestif.
