Uncommon Goods Review & Giveaway (HOLIDAY GIFT)

I received a sample from Uncommon Goods for the sole purpose of this review

I love finding unique gifts. Some people are just hard to buy for, but with Uncommon Goods it's really easy to find the right gift for everybody. I have worked with them in the past, so I was super excited to work with them again. 

This time around I received the Rainbow Sound Blocks and the Cake Pops Kit

Cake Pops kit comes with everything you need to display your cake pops.
I have personally never made cake pops before, but I'd love to start, so I love that this kit comes with a recipe/design book as well as a stand, the sticks, cellophane to wrap around, tags and ribbon to pretty them up.
Recipe/Design book.
There are plenty of complex designs in here, but this is just a basic cake pop.
The sound Blocks are pretty darn awesome! I love them, so I know my son will love getting them for Christmas.
I love that they're wooden and aren't super loud, these really are the best gifts. They are the best for imagination and also nice and quiet for the parents.
There is a stand and 6 blocks that stack and store in the stand.
Each one has different sized beads inside
All put back together. They look gorgeous just stored like this and would be super cute on a shelf in babies room. But of course fun to play with as well.

The Rainbow Sound Blocks are for ages 2 and up. And really I can see my 6.5 year old playing with these as well. They have a wide age range on them and are great for kids of any age. 
And again, I love that they're more natural and also QUIET!!

I can't wait to make my first Cake Pops with the design book and kit above. I think it will be a blast to get into this kind of baking!

Uncommon Goods has a lot of wonderful items for even the strangest of people on your gift list this year. They have  Gifts under $50 and Gifts under $100 among many other items!
I'm really liking these magnetic animals too!

And what about this row boat salad bowl? I mean, that's pretty cool!
Price: The Sound Blocks are $36 and the Cake Pops Kit is $20. 

Overall: *****

*Disclaimer* I received an item directly from Uncommon Goods in exchange for a review. I was not paid to try out these products*
A big thank you goes out to Uncommon Goods for allowing me to review this product and for offering a giveaway
