[ad_1] Hi, my name is Katie, and I am an introverted parent. Of course, I was given an extremely extroverted child who makes friends everywhere she goes and invites the entire world over to our house. She’s still pretty young, so it’s up to me to make sure playdates happen for her, especially since she’s […]

[ad_1] The sky has provided inspiration for many artist from Van Gogh to Dali. Whether it is a pale sunrise, a cloudy midday, a rosy sunset or a blue starry night, the sky makes a beautiful painting. Your child will have fun painting what he or she sees in nature. I love helping children express their […]

[ad_1] As a parent, particularly as a parent of young children, finding somewhere to go out as a family can be tough. Eateries either tend to be geared towards adults who no longer possess the urge to throw fistfuls of spaghetti on the floor, or they just aren’t places adults would care to spend a […]

And while you might enjoy the walking paths and the easy escape from daily conversations, there’s something else lurking among the headstones. I’m not talking about ghosts, although there might be ghosts. I’m referring to gravestone-inspired baby names. Graveyards can provide endless […]

She has a knack for taking recipes that can be intimidating and making them very doable. I am so excited […]

[ad_1] For some moms, getting their kids to help with the simplest task feels like an uphill battle. Let’s be honest, half the time, they don’t even do what they’re asked, so getting them to notice an awaiting chore and take it upon themselves to do it is a whole new ball game. Moms get […]

[ad_1] To be clear, I do not wish for fall to pass any faster than it already does. I’m a fall lover through and through — give me all the pumpkin spice lattes, spooky lore, and leaf-peeping. But here’s my confession (or maybe betrayal?): I’m an utter sucker for Christmas music. And as you’re probably […]

[ad_1] There are few things I loved more as a new mom than building out my child’s library.
