I would have to say that this hairdo is my favorite and my most go-to hair do. It’s quick and easy and looks super adorable! If any of you out there don’t know how to do a french braid, they are very easy to do. At first they may seem complicated, but with practice they [...]

A couple weeks ago was my daughter’s spring break. We didn’t have anything elaborate planned or any big trips, but we did have some fun. We planned a bunch of things to do around our town, and luckily we had nice enough weather to spend most of it outdoors. After our first day out at [...]
This hairdo is really quick and easy to do but it looks super adorable. I call it a Triple Flip Pony Tails just becuase of how I do the pony’s. You can do this hairdo with the topsy tail tool or you can try with out. (my friend never uses one and her flip pony’s are adorable!) This [...]

Three and a half years ago I was pregnant with my second child and on the hunt for a double stroller. My first son would be just over 2 1/2 when his brother was born. He was a very active boy who no longer liked to ride in strollers for long periods of time, but [...]
I have two daughters and although my baby doesn’t have enough hair to do much with yet I have been doing my 5 year old daughters hair from the time I could get it into a pony tail. I just love doing her hair and creating new do’s. She attends dance 4 days out of a [...]
Early childhood education has always been extremely important to me. During and after college I taught 4 year olds at an academic preschool. I was also a teacher and therapist for children with autism. I knew even before I had children that I didn’t want to leave the teaching of my children entirely up to [...]
Depending on how you feel about digging up dirt, gardening can be just “one of those chores” or THE reason to get outside on the weekends. If you’re the former, a great way to turn the chore into a fun family day is to get the kids involved! Gardening with the whole family has so [...]
Separation anxiety is a hard thing to go through, both as a child and for the parents. And, it isn’t something that plagues a child for a few years in childhood and then magically disappears. It can affect a person for decades. At some point in childhood, it does go stealth, because children don’t want [...]
I don’t know about you but I love to have people over for a party or celebration. And what else makes a party complete than the decorations! (Well, maybe some food too!) My baby just turned one last week. I knew I wanted to have our family over to celebrate and watch her dig into her [...]

However, after the weather the winter months bring, spring rains can be taxing on parents who are desperately trying to find ways to keep the kids entertained. Here are a [...]
