Kid-Friendly Smoothies | Pin of the Week
This week’s featured pin is a tribute to the age-old struggle of parents who want their children to eat more veggies. Sigh. This is me. This is a struggle in my house for sure! My kids will eat green beans, corn and peas no problem. One of them eats broccoli, the other one has recently decided it cannot even touch

Cooking with Kids | Pin of the Week
I love to cook, and I’m always looking for ways to involve my boys in the process. It’s such an important skill to learn, but can be challenging to find recipes that are age appropriate, healthy, and something that the whole family will actually eat. Fortunately for me, Pinterest has a wealth of ideas to help me

DIY Recycled Kite Craft | Pin of the Week
Either my boys are aware that April is national kite month, or they simply have spring fever, because lately they have really gotten into flying kites! I love any activity that encourages them to run around outside and enjoy the weather. Last week my oldest asked if he could make his own kite to fly

Upcycle Easter Eggs | Pin of the Week
If your family celebrated Easter this past weekend, I’m guessing you might have some plastic egg halves lingering around your home – I know I have plenty at my house! Putting the eggs away to reuse next year is always an option, but if you’re not a household that likes to save things, or if

10 Creative Ways to Organize Toys | Pin of the Week
I have to admit, having kids threw me for a loop. Well, I guess they threw me for more than one loop, but relative to the organization of my house, they threw me for one HUGE loop. I wasn’t prepared for how much stuff would invade my house. And not just the essentials like diapers

Celery and Food Coloring Experiment | Pin of the Week
I have long been a fan of science. I like to understand how and why things work the way they do. I remember an experiment in 7th grade science class where we peeled the membrane off of a layer of onion and looked at it under a microscope. I still think of that experiment every

Textured Yarn Hearts | Pin of the Week
Valentine’s Day creeps up on me every year. I think I’m just so thankful to get through the November-to-January holiday season that I’m in complete denial another holiday is about to round the corner. And here it is. Three days away. As much as I would love for us to hand-make some of the adorable

Snowman Pancakes | Pin of the Week
I love dual-purpose activities, especially when one of them involves food. When the other involves keeping my boys entertained, it’s the perfect match. So when I saw the snowman pancakes blog post on kidactivitiesblog.com, I knew it would fit the two-functions-one-activity bill well. Plus, who doesn’t love pancakes? In her post, Kim walks us through

Cloud Dough | Pin of the Week
We love to bake at my house. And it’s not just because the end result is eating sweet treats. The boys have so much fun measuring, counting, pouring and stirring with all of the baking utensils. Plus, they get to make a colossal mess in the kitchen (which honestly might be the reason why they

Indoor Activities for Kids | Pin of the Week
I’m going to go out on a limb here and say it – I’m a little tired of winter. We’re technically only about a month in and I’m dreaming of non-rainy, warm-enough weather to let my boys run around outside and burn off their pent-up energy. It certainly didn’t happen this week with the subzero

Holiday Gifts Kids Can Make | Pin of the Week
My favorite part of this time of year is the children around me. The kids in the concourse here at the hospital commenting on the intricate details of the trees currently on display. The kids at Target helping their parents choose gifts for their brothers, sisters or cousins. And of course, my own children and

Autumn Leaf Activities | Pin of the Week
I have endless fond memories of playing in huge piles of leaves during the autumn seasons of my childhood. There’s just something magical about leaves turning colors and falling to the ground. My sisters and I would beg our parents to help us rake them together so we could jump and roll in them before

Simple Restaurant Activities | Pin of the week
We’ve all been there.  We can only prepare so many meals at home without desiring a night off.  An evening free of chopping, sautéing, stirring, and cleaning…it sounds so luxurious! But sometimes when I think about the logistics of taking the kids to a restaurant and the potential for them to melt down in a
