Teaching Children to Care for Books
It can be nerve-wracking letting your child 'read' books since many pages get ripped, pulled out, and chewed. I tried my best to supervise my children when they were infants and toddlers to help eliminate the need for constant book repair. We keep the board books lower on the shelf so the younger ones can't reach the books with paper pages, but this does not always work out … [Read more...]
Time-Saving Valentine’s Cards for Kids
I received product credit in exchange for offering a giveaway for YOU from Minted.

Road Trip Tip: Keep the Car Smelling Fresh
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of PERK for IZEA. All opinions are 100% mine. Driving with kids in the car leads to some interesting messes and smells at times.

Essential Oils Beginner: 5 Simple Ways I Use Essential Oils in My Home
When I saw many jumping on the essential oils band wagon, I tried to run the other way. I tend to be a skeptic when the crowd builds. But, the twins were sleeping horribly. As an essential oils beginner, I had to start simply. The twins were up every night for 3-4 hours. (No joke. Every single night.) That makes for a tired mama by about 2pm. Most days I needed an … [Read more...]
