It’s all about balance and finding the right tools that work for your family...but tools that double as learning activities?? You can count us in every time! 🙌🏼

Roo is LOVING the KiwiCo Sprout boxes (for kids ages 3-6). And you should see Mo and Fin light up when they open their Panda Crates (ages 0-3+). 😆

Plus, there are THREE other KiwiCo Clubs (KiwiCo World, KiwiCo Labs, and KiwiCo Studio) for ages 6+ each designed to guide kids through engaging, hands-on activities.

Life with young kids was so overstimulating and mo

Life with young kids was so overstimulating and moving too fast for me to keep up. I was struggling with burnout and exhaustion. All I wanted was everything to calm down so I could truly enjoy my kids being little! ❤️

Over the last year, I made a commitment to slow it all down. If society and expectations were wanting us to speed things up, I was determined to pave our own path. We’ve made small changes that have made a BIG difference for our family.

Making changes, doing something different, and going against the “norm” can be scary, but the hardest part is truly just taking the first step. Follow along with me @apopofyou and we can create the calm homes we dream of together!

What’s a change you’ve made that @apopofyou has inspired you to try? What’s something that you feel is holding your family back from thriving??

Watch to see the ultimate “neat first-born” vs “chaotic second-born” scenario go down…😆

Roo is SO detail-oriented and Mo is all over the place. Love how different they are!

And sweet Fin is just our little mess maker. I think of it as “explorative learning”. 😅

We’re moving a lot of our learning activities outside because this fall weather is what we’ve been waiting for. The Virginia humidity is behind us and we’re here for it 👏🏼

This Rock Art activity is included in my Outdoor Morning Bin Guide coming SO SOON! 👀

This entertained my (almost) 3 year old for 20 MINUTES. That’s like 4 hours in mom-time 😆

But seriously…a good ol’ fashioned cutting box is one of our go-to activities because it’s so simple and takes almost no time to set-up.

Things I’ve thrown in cutting boxes:
- wrapping paper
- magazine pages
- plastic straws
- pipecleaners
- junk mail
- scrap construction paper

WHAT ELSE??

Can’t even make this stuff up 🫣

We found out last week that our entire shower floor was rotted after the drain was installed incorrectly by someone we hired…in 2019

Still LOLing that I spent precious preschool time cleaning this bathroom three days before this happened…

(JK. I’m not LOLing 🙄🫠)

Now since he’s already reno-ing this mess, let’s see if I can get him to put up an accent wall in there while he’s at it. 👀 Always a bright side!
