Based on the subject, there will be a bit of “TMI,” there’s no getting around it, so you are forewarned!
I purchased these items myself however, this post contains affiliate links. When I found out The Honest Toddler was publishing a book, I immediately pre-ordered two. One for me and one for you. I knew it would be awesome, and I was right!
