Bored Kids? Here’s What To Do
Kids love to say that they’re bored, don’t they? It’s normal for kids to do this - after all, once they’ve started school, they’re used to somebody telling them what to do all day long. It’s natural for them to expect you to tell them what to do the right of the time. While you should encourage your kids to make up their own games and come up with things they’d like to do, it won’t hurt to have a few tricks up your sleeve for when the situation ...
A Playmobil Set That’s Out of this World!
Disclosure: Product provided for review. All opinions are our own. All of a sudden my little guy is obsessed with all things outer space. I can't remember how this obsession started, but we are now swimming in all things outer space. He can even tell us all the planets based on what they look like, and I think that's pretty impressive because even after a year of astronomy classes I can't do that! It was only fitting that when ...

It was getting out of hand and I felt like my family was watching the ...
Worry Free Ladies Night Out
Getting together for a ladies night out after having kids is quite a challenge. I'm sure you've seen memes circling the internet about planning a girl's night out and then not being able to find a date where everyone is available and has a babysitter until months later. I'm fortunate to have a group of ladies I love and adore, and we plan such events. The more kids we had between us, the more challenging it was to find a date that worked with all ...
It’s Not Spring Without Butterflies!
When my second daughter was born in early May, 7 years ago, I was greeted by dozens of butterflies in our yard the day we brought her home. Somehow, a butterfly ended up in the house and I was too afraid I would hurt it, so it lingered until I was able to coax it out of a window. Ironically, it happened again a few days later. I felt a strong connection to her birth and butterflies, and nicknamed her my little butterfly. She likes to tell the ...
