We have officially neared the end of our amazing softball season. Our girl had so much fun and so did we as parents. We have made some really great friends and cherish their friendships. I encourage you to get your kids involved in an activity and get involved as a parent as well; you’ll create some of the best memories!

I believe that the parents and coaches can really make a difference in how fun the season is for the kids. Some things we’ve done for our girls is get pizza delivered to the field after practice, get ice cream after practice, a pizza party, or a potluck at the fields if we have a double header. All these moments create a bonding experience for the team and for the parents as well.

Our season is now over, and we are getting ready for our end of season party. Our team mom has asked us to provide a small gift for each girl on the team. It can be as small or as large as we’d like. All the items get placed into a basket, and at the end of the season party every girl receives a basket full of goodies. In the past, some items have been pieces of jewelry, slime, craft kit, etc. Anything that the girls can enjoy. I walked through the Dollar Tree and FiveBelow, but nothing caught my eye. I tried to think out of the box this year and tried to gift something that would be used more than once.

The girls are receiving a team gift of a towel and cute flip flops. I wanted to go with the “summer” theme so I thought, why not a pedicure set. Question was, could I do it and stay within budget? I wanted to spend about $5 per girl. I went home and looked on Amazon. I added all kinds of things to my cart and then I finalized my choices. I ended up ordering some really cute things and spent about $60 on everything.

Here’s what I purchased:

First I looked for a cute bag. I was looking for a pencil bag size. Dollar Tree had some cute ones but they were $1.25 each. This set from Amazon was $7.99 for a pack of 16. They are see through, but that was okay with me. I also loved the colorful zippers.

Then I found these cute nail filers. I was looking for full sized ones and these were perfect. I loved the designs. Several others were just plain. These came in a pack of 12 for $4.99. I also found these cute nail clippers. I wanted something more than the basic silver ones. I thought this was a great price. A pack of 24 was $10.79.

Next, I found these cute toe separators. I fell in love with the different colors in this pack. It comes with 48 pieces for $6.39.

I also wanted to add a cute nail accessory. The easiest accessory I could think of for young girls was stickers. There are several to choose from online. I was looking for a pack that had the most sheets so I can easily divide amongst the girls. I found this set of 50 sheets for $7.99. The sheets were small but the stickers are so cute and perfect for little girl fingers.

No nail kit is complete without nail polish. I was looking to buy in bulk to get the best price. I also wanted cute neutral colors and nothing too dark. Again, price was a factor with my decision. I came across this set of 15 polishes. It was also a brand name that I have used before so I went ahead and selected this one. The pack of 15 was $14.99 which I think was a great deal. Once they arrived I realized they were smaller than a normal nail polish. It still worked out but just be aware and double check the size of the polish because some are really small.

The last piece to this little nail kit I made was a cute tag. I thought long and hard about a cute little saying where could incorporate softball and toes. It was a little tough but I finally came up with something I loved. I designed the tag on the app Canva. You can download it for free if you’d like to create your own kits

This is the final look of how I put it all together.

They turned out so cute. I can’t wait for the girls to receive their gifts. I hope they love it! I know my girl will ❤️
