I have never played with slot cars and understood the hype until I checked out the MarioKart GO! Carrera-Revell of America playset! They are the leading producer of slot car racing sets and their toys are sold on Amazon as well as their own website. The technology of slot cars requires 4 D batteries. We took some time to assemble the track and place the banners along the side. It was very exciting to see it come to life as we followed the easy instructions to get it built. It was way bigger than I thought it would be and the speed made it thrilling and fun for Niko! He will be 6 in just a few weeks so this was definitely a huge upgrade from his Hotwheel tracks. First, we learned to control the speed of the cars, then we place the ramps and made the cars jump!
We loved how detailed the cars look and since we just rewatched the Super Mario movie last week, it was so much fun! Even though it was a school night, we were way too excited to receive this in the mail and built it. Once we finished building it we realized our D batteries were not working and went to the store in my pajamas to buy some. We got Energizer batteries over the generic store brand to give it the maximum oomph and power. Niko was so excited and loved this toy so much that he woke up early to play again before school started. If you are looking for a gift for the holidays that is fun for the entire family, add it to your Amazon wish list!

The kids were so excited to design and build an alter with the Tiny Hikes and Adventures friends this year at the Springs Preserve. Together with their mommies, were able to create elements of a traditional ofrenda through numerous arts and crafts. All the items were done by the children of Tiny Hikes and their families!First, check out the monarch butterflies made with paint, constructions paper, coffee filters, pipe cleaners and markers. Monarch butterflies are a common feature of Day of the Dead altars, or ofrendas, because they are believed to carry the spirits of the dead. Many indigenous cultures in Mexico believe that butterflies represent the souls of the deceased who return to visit their loved ones on Earth during Día de Muertos. The kids made over 300 butterflies! The judges love that the kids were able to learn about the cultural meaning of the Day of the Dead. We lost a few moms in the group these past years due to various reasons and we had to explain death to the children in an organic, meaningful and gentle way. People deal with loss in different ways and for us this was a good way to make sense of our tragic loss that hit so close to home. This EPIC skull pinata was made by Katy Briggs. Her artistry is unmatched and details of this sugar skull took hours of meticulous work. Sugar skulls represented a departed soul, had the name written on the forehead and was placed on the home ofrenda or gravestone to honor the return of a particular spirit. Sugar skull art reflects the folk art style of big happy smiles, colorful icing and sparkly tin and glittery adornments. The pinecones were painted as marigold flowers that are symbolic in a traditional ofrenda. Marigolds symbolize the brevity of life and are thought to guide the spirits of the dead back to their families. The children painted these in red, orange and yellow to represent this beautiful flower. The most popular marigold for ofrendas is the yellow marigold, also known as flor de cempasúchil. Other flowers that are sometimes used in ofrendas include: chrysanthemums and cockscomb The hand painted rocks that represented the food for the souls was my favorite part. The ‘pan’ or bread was so realistic and the vegetables added a colorful element to the artistic ofrenda. Big shout out to La Bonita who was one of the sponsors that made this festival possible! This is my mom’s all time favorite destination in Las Vegas and every Wednesday, this is were we stock up on fresh veggies and fruits.
One of the best tools we used in our production of this award winning ofrenda is glow in the dark glue sticks from SureBonder! These Glow-in-the-dark mini glue sticks can be used for, but not limited to, Halloween decorations, Halloween costumes, craft and art projects, school projects, or your own creative activity. If you are a serial crafter like me, you will know that a cordless glue gun is truly lifechanging! Thank you for sending this for us to test out!

WEDDING CAPITAL OF THE WORLD™ UNVEILS NEW MURAL AT MARRIAGE LICENSE BUREAU
Design Created by Acclaimed Local Artist Shan Evans
The Wedding Capital of the World™ announces the installation of a vibrant new wedding-themed mural at the Marriage License Bureau in Downtown Las Vegas, created by acclaimed local artist Shan Evans. The mural, designed to capture the joy, romance and distinctive energy of Las Vegas weddings, serves as the latest iconic photo opportunity for couples from around the world.
Evans was selected as the winner of a competitive local artist contest earlier this year, that attracted entries from some of Las Vegas’ most talented creatives. With a reputation for his compelling street art and larger-than-life murals, Evans is celebrated for his ability to convey emotion through bold colors and striking compositions. His new piece for the Wedding Capital of the World™ encapsulates the glamor and allure of Las Vegas, merging the city’s storied past with its ever-evolving role as the ultimate destination for love and marriage.
Spanning 40 feet wide and 14 feet high, the mural is a visually stunning addition to the exterior wall of the Marriage License Bureau. The artwork, digitally created and transferred onto a high-quality vinyl wrap, showcases Evans’ dynamic style and draws inspiration from mid-century modern aesthetics, the award-winning Forever Happens Here campaign, our historic neon motifs and the timeless spirit of love in Las Vegas.
“This mural not only celebrates the history and character of Las Vegas weddings but also adds a modern twist to the love stories that unfold here every day,” said Clark County Clerk Lynn Marie Goya. “It’s a powerful reminder that in Las Vegas, love truly has no bounds—and every couple can be the star of their own unforgettable moment.”
“Whenever I think of love and marriage, I imagine a world filled with magic and fantasy,” said Evans. “But the reality is that it is built on hard work and dedication. As I created this mural, that understanding evolved and shaped the piece itself. I wanted to capture that effort—showing the bricks, the structures, the wires – little handmade touches strung together by threads. There’s work involved in keeping the glow alive, whether it’s in a piece of art, this city or a life together, and sometimes, you’ve got to change a few light bulbs along the way.”
The new mural will remain on display for at least one year at the Regional Justice Center building on the corner of Clark and 3rd St. With the Marriage License Bureau open 365 days a year from 8 a.m. to midnight, it will also serve as the ultimate backdrop for Instagrammable wedding and engagement photos, offering couples a memorable setting to capture the excitement of their special day.
For more information about the Wedding Capital of the World™ and to see the mural in person, visit the Marriage License Bureau at 201 E. Clark Ave., Las Vegas, NV 89101. Couples looking to include the mural in their wedding or engagement photos can tag @VegasWeddingCapital on Instagram and TikTok to share their images.
