I learned about what Montessori Parenting is when my Daughter was already a toddler 😊 I felt this parenting style to be petty close to our way of life, and even we were not running a 100% Montessori home, we took lots of inspiration and activity ideas. I am happy to share with you the essence of Montessori Parenting, as we experienced it 😊
Summer can be a challenge for the parents of kids of all ages who need cheap or free summer activities and ideas.
I created a few years ago a summer bucket list with kids, that might be interesting to download and print if you like checking lists 😁
Now in this post, I focused on low-cost activities that families can enjoy together and also added some that do not necessarily need continuous assistance from adults 😊
There is a neverending debate about the necessity of “organized” after-school activities vs. letting our Little (and not that little) Ones freely wander around and hang on with friends etc. 😊
Well, I think both concepts have their own benefits, so we are striving for a healthy balance… but in this short article, I collected information about the benefits of after-school programs and some ideas that might be interesting for your kids as well 😊
I think I have fallen for printables during Covid lockdowns… I was working from home while trying to get my then 4yo to engaging activities… You can estimate my chances 😂
I was looking for printable activities, scholastic printables, used LEGO blocks… and ordered tons of children’s books online 😁
Now, besides explaining why printable mini-books are great resources, I am adding our favorite mini coloring books to this post so that you can print and use it with your kids this summer as well 😊
Mindfulness is the practice of paying attention to the present moment with kindness and curiosity. Starting this practice at a young age can be incredibly beneficial, and there are many fun ways to practice it with your kids.
Not all the kids enjoy water from the very beginning! To make them more interested and enthusiastic about swimming, it can be a great idea to watch some short films (we loved videos about synchronized swimming), and share fun facts about swimming to grab the kids’ attention!
When I was a little girl, Father’s Day Quotes were not important at all, we mainly celebrated Mother’s Day and did not make a big thing out of Father’s Day. However, as we became parents it was obvious that my Daughter would celebrate her Dad as well 😊 And my Dad also started to complain about his own Father’s Day gifts from me and my Brother 😅
This year I collected several quotes, that you can use on your gift cards this Father’s Day!
I have never been a “pro-technology” Mom 🤷♀️ But after some research, it turned out that there are some surprising benefits of technology on kids’ development!
Honestly, my Daughter asked for a phone for some time now, but with her Father, we did not really see how she would use it in a way that is acceptable for us too, so it was out of the question.
But… and there is always a but when you are raising kids… 😅
Check out what I have found!😊
Ah, the Tooth Fairy. When the 5th tooth of my Daughter was very close to falling, the most important she was worried about was not losing it so she could put it under her pillow for the Tooth Fairy 😊
Whether you’re a seasoned tooth fairy veteran or gearing up for your child’s first tooth loss, there’s always something new and delightful to discover in the world of Tooth Fairy.
Let’s dive into some Tooth Fairy magic, from easier access to apology letters and beyond!
There are various life skills or independent living skills that kids should learn while growing up. Well, in most cases I would not say “learn” like a sort of curriculum, but as parents, we can definitely help them to master these skills while they are at a young age – so they can thank us later 😉
Speaking about the story of Easter with teens can be challenging… but it also holds a great opportunity to start a meaningful discussion about Christian traditions and Jesus’ life. Whether you are in a community of Christian Moms, or simply interested in religion and history, during the Easter season, you can definitely grab the chance to speak about Biblical times, and the story of God with your teenagers! Easter is celebrated all over the world, and there are traditions based on the Biblical Easter Story and others, like the Easter Bunny or the Easter Eggs that are more related to natural spring celebrations…
How can mindfulness quotes and affirmations help us to support our children in growing happy, healthy, and resilient? I am now working with a lady who is developing a special tool, a set of mindfulness cards that are targeting mainly parents, helping them to find their inner peace, and their life purpose and be able…
