{five favorites} Vol.17: A Blast from the #5Faves Past

Welcome to the Five Favorites linkup!
A reminder about a new twist I’m adding to the linkup this year: At the end of each month, I’ll be giving away a prize pack to one #5Faves participant!  Here’s how it works: every time you link up a blog post, it counts as one entry.  So if you link up a post every week, you’d get four entries.  I’ll keep track throughout the month and then randomly pick a winner on April 1.


Before I took on the #5Faves linkup here at The Big White Farmhouse, I was a regular participant!  Today I’m sharing five of my favorite posts from the archives:

Our Five Favorite Games for Kids
Almost a year later, this one was fun to revisit!  It’s always fun to see what has become a life-long favorite and what the kids have outgrown.  J is still a huge fan of Spot It Jr., while Sophia enjoys making up her own set of rules for Jenga.  The bigger boys seem to have graduated to older games, like chess and regular Monopoly.

My Top Five Ways to Support Bloggers
This was one of my favorite posts to write and I come back to it frequently to make sure that I practice what I preach.

Five Easter Basket Ideas for Kids
More Easter ideas that are both practical and fun!

5 Reasons We Love Jet.com
I wrote this last summer, but the sentiment is still true: I LOVE JET.  In the months since this post, the turnaround time has gotten even faster (1-2 days on almost everything) and I still think the prices are comparable or better to what I would get at the store.  Highly recommend.

My Top Five Favorites for Cool Weather Running
I’m gearing up to begin half marathon training in a few weeks, so this post was a good refresher.  The title is a little misleading, since most of these items work for warm weather too!

I’d love to hear about five of your favorite things too!
