It is estimated that approximately 6 million children, under the age of 18, have a food allergy. This is 1 in 13 children, or roughly two in every classroom! Halloween is such an exciting time of year for kids, especially when it comes to trick or treating. But, if you’re the parent of a child with food allergies, just like my neighbor and close friend, it’s not always a simple stroll around the neighborhood with your family. Anxiety and worry {Read More}
Halloween Monster Prints
I don’t know about you, but I LOVE getting geared up for the holidays….and Halloween is no exception! I remember as a kid getting so excited about all of the festive decorations that were in the halls of my school, classrooms, and all around my house . Spiderwebs donning doors, pumpkins on the front porch, spooky skeletons sitting on shelves….let’s face it, I’ll always be a kid at heart. Not sure about you, but stores like Hobby Lobby, Michaels, and {Read More}
Transportation Themed Birthday Party
Trains, Trucks, Tractors….galore! Beep, Beep, Choo, Choo….so much more! Both of my boys LOVE all things transportation.

SO, I decided to mix them together for my oldest’s 3rd birthday party (he will be turning 5 in a few months….yikes!). Nothing beats that excited look on your child’s face when they see all the details come together. I only hope I have enough energy to {Read More}

There are many ways we can show others how much we love and appreciate them!

I don’t know about you all, but if you’ve never tried these cupcake like desserts, well…you’re missing out! We have a store in our town called Nothing Bundt Cakes that sell these in a variety of {Read More}
Incentive Charts for Kids
This is something I’ve had the intention of doing for quite some time, but always seemed to put off, because….well, summer got the best of us! With a 4 year old who is starting to test boundaries and sharpen his negotiating skills (especially at bedtime), it was starting to become more and more necessary to start an incentive system with him, as a way of motivating him to be more consistent with positive behaviors and become more responsible! I didn’t {Read More}
Time for School!
IT’S BACK TO SCHOOL TIME… My son started his first day of 4 year old preschool and he was all smiles (as you can see!). It sure helped having quite a few familiar faces from last year in his classroom. I started this poster tradition with birthdays and have now continued on with each first day of school. We shall see how long this tradition will last (crossing fingers I can keep up!) Because he is STILL train obsessed, we were {Read More}
