Summer Activities For Kids! S.T.E.M Education Activities
I’ve been looking for a way to reinforce all of the S.T.E.M education that Alice learned in school this year into our summer activities. When I was approached by TOMO to review a 2-in1 robot I was giddy!! S.T.E.M education is truly the wave of the future. An acronym for the fields of Science, Technology, Engineering and Math. So I’m right when I say this is the future for our children. Now, to incorporate this into our summer it needs to be fun. Seriously, even I don’t want to work now!! It’s SUMMER VACATION people!! Alice and I would like to introduce you to Bob! A 2-in-1 Transformable DIY Programmable…

Best Electrical Safety Tips for Kids!!
Being a parent, you are probably accustomed to having to constantly worry about where your kids are and what they are doing, what they are playing with. If there’s crashing and yelling you know there is trouble, and if its way too quiet you know there’s trouble. It can sometimes feel like kids are determined to give us a heart condition before they reach kindergarten. I’ll never forget my husband’s reaction when our 8-month-old son, pulled the outlet cover off the outlet and handed it to me. Sheer Panic! The good news is, there are still plenty of effective ways to keep our kids safe when it comes of electricity.…

What Educational Games Should I Play with My Child?
You all want your child to grow up and be a smart confident person, and that starts by playing educational games with them at a young age. There is a fine line that you must toe to get the most knowledge without your child losing confidence. If you play a difficult game with your child they may not grasp the concept and lose confidence in their abilities. Conversely, if you play a game that is too easy they will be confident in their answers, but they are not gaining the same level of knowledge. The child care center of Sydney offers educational games of all levels to match your child’s…

Here Comes The Bride!!
Nooooo, I’m not getting married. And neither is my adorable model 5-year-old Alice. But this dress made Alice feel like a bride! So much so that we spent an entire afternoon making the living-room bride central. We started with Alice’s pretend make up set where I channeled my inner Bobbi Brown and did her subtle make up to make her inner beauty shine. (Am I good or WHAT!!??) Alice would hold the mirror as I applied her makeup. I would say ‘do you see how this color brings out your eye color?’ Alice actually SAW color and would say “YOU are RIGHT!” I love, love, LOVE imagination play!! When Alice’s…

Writing! Writing! A Joy With Pilot Pens!!
Y’all know I have a real addiction to pens. Yes, pens; those lovely instruments that put ink on paper. Those instruments that write love songs, create moving novels or in my case keep my calendar up to date. I’m probably the real reason that pens are on chains or have huge flowers attached to them. Yup, the pen whisperer! They just follow me home! HONEST!! Shoplet (don’t forget to use your Rakuten account. 2% back!) and Pilot Pens graciously sent me several packages of pens that I can’t wait to tell you about!!
