We made a few simple swaps to make our space safer without taking away the fun 🤍

From soft rubber mats in climbing areas to safer edging (we swapped ours for hollow plastic instead of hard rock), these are the kinds of changes that give me so much more peace of mind while they play.

It’s still the same backyard… just a little more kid-proofed 🌿✨

I found the cutest dollhouse on Amazon that actually has working lights! 🥺 It’s extra large with three stories and has the cutest details! I love the color scheme and the attention to detail!

The exterior of the dollhouse is so cute and it even has a sunroof 🥺

I made these cake push pops using simple layers of cake, frosting, and a few fun toppings we had on hand, and my kids thought they were the most magical thing ever 🥹💗 Something about a dessert they can push up themselves just hits different.

I love little ideas like this that don’t take a ton of effort but turn into such a fun memory. Perfect for birthdays, playdates, or even just a “why not” afternoon at home 🤍

For the paint, I just used Behr paint that we already had from other projects! Ideally, you would use outdoor paint so that it holds up best :) Once I had mine painted, I sealed it with a topcoat!

A little sunshine, a little paint, and a whole lot of magic 💛🐞

This is such an easy DIY for anyone who is looking to do something fun for their kids this summer!

You can paint a wooden swing and use it as a tree swing or you can use it on a regular swing set!

It’s the kind of childhood you wish you could bottle up 🌞🌼

These clay letters are super easy to make, and they look so cute to display in their room!

Here’s how you can make them!

I made stencils by printing out letters in the font that I liked on plain computer paper. Then I cut those out and use that as a stencil for my clay!

Once you cut out your letters, you are going to take a rolled out piece of clay and place it on top, this is going to give it the bubble effect! Then you use water to smooth out all of the edges until your letters look nice and smooth.

You need to let the clay completely dry before you paint it. Depending upon the thickness of your letters, this can take several days or up to a week!

Once your clay is dry, you go ahead and paint it with whatever design you like! I just used acrylic paint and then I sprayed my letters with a high gloss shine afterward!

I cut command strips to fit the back of my letters and used command strips to adhere them to the wall :) I painted both front and back of the letters that way the command strips would be able to stick to the paint, they don’t stick well to just plain clay!

Instead of tucking away their memories in a book, try displaying it on their wall 🥺

This was such an easy project! All you need are these felt boards, some fabric and scrap booking supplies!

I wanted mine to look like a quilt so I used different fabric on each square!

I also love that you can add more squares at any time since it’s modular!

There’s a reason why this thing always goes viral! It’s so funnnn! It’s the perfect toy for summer because of the water features! Perfect for the monster jam lover 😊

Making a table tent is super easy! All you need is a drop cloth, some ribbon, and paint!

I used a 9 x 12 drop cloth, but you will base this off the size of your table! You are going to lay your drop cloth out flat and trim it to fit the dimensions of your table. Then you are going to cut out a square at each corner. If your table is 3 feet tall then you will cut a 3‘ x 3‘ square out of each corner of the drop cloth. This allows the fabric too lay flat when you put it over the table.

Next, you’re going to cut out your windows and your door. Once you have everything cut out, you are either going to use hot glue or stitch witchery to fold over and adhere all of your edges down. This will keep all of your edges from fraying!

You can either use fabric paint or you can mix acrylic paint with fabric medium. Fabric medium keeps your paint from cracking! Once your paint is ready, you are going to paint on your design. I drew my design in pencil first and then painted it.

You are going to use ribbon to tie all of the corners together. You can either cut out a circle to do this or you can use a fabric hole punch. You can also skip this step if you don’t want your corners tied. For the door, I also added ribbon to the top so that the kids could keep their door tied open.

Finally, I added, felt flowers to mine and used Velcro dots to adhere them. I did this so that the kids could pick flowers and put them back on!

Here’s how I made our canvas door shops!
You are going to start by cutting out your canvas fabric. You can go off of your door size or your child’s height! For mine, I did 4 feet x 30 inches.

Next, you are going to cut out your window. Once this is done, you are going to either use hot glue or stitch witchery to fold over all of the edges and adhere them down! This will keep your edges from fraying :) Make sure you do this to the edges inside your window too!

I drew my design with pencil first! You can use fabric paint or acrylic paint that is mixed with fabric medium. Fabric medium keeps your paint from cracking!

For the pocket, I cut out canvas squares and then covered them with fabric. I just used hot glue for this part. Then I hot glued them onto the canvas!

I made their signs using my Cricut, but you could also paint them on!

I put a tension rod at both the top and the bottom. You can just do one at the top, but having one at the bottom keeps your pocket from folding forward!

To create the pocket to slip the tension rod into, I just folded over the canvas and hot glued it down!

Officially being served “sparkle soup” and “rainbow tea” on repeat 😌

Growing up, we used to make potions with whatever we could find in the backyard! Living vicariously through my kids by giving them a whole potion making station ✨

colored water, glitter, tiny add-ins, backyard treasures…

That’s all you need for hours of play!

We tried something new for Easter eggs this year… and I don’t think we’ll ever go back 🐣

Whipped cream + food coloring = the prettiest eggs and a much more kid-friendly process.

No worries about little tastes, just lots of fun and color 🤍

Just let sit for 15-30 minutes and then wash off 🐰🐣

This year the Easter bunny traded baskets for wheelbarrows 🧺🐰

I filled them with outdoor toys so the kids can use them all spring and summer instead of just Easter morning.

The kids get a basket surprise AND something they'll use all season.

A few things I tucked inside:

🫧 bubbles
🥕 gardening tools
☀️ outdoor toys
⛺️ camping set
🌦️ rain boots + umbrellas

Such a fun way to welcome spring!

#ad @Target just released a couple of really good kid books that we are so excited to share with you guys! Both "The Wild Robot Escapes" and "Dog Man Big Jim Believes" are available at Target now!

"The Wild Robot Escapes" follows a robot, Roz, who has been taken captive and befriends the children and animals on the farm where Roz is being held. With a pivotal plot moment featuring the inventor of Roz meeting Roz and helping with the escape plan.

The book, "Dog Man Big Jim Believes," tells a story that challenges the juxtaposition between Big Jim's optimistic, feel good attitude and his Grampa's pessimistic attitude and views on the world. The book promotes positivity, self-confidence, and courage.

Both these books contain great lessons paired with adventure for older readers! As always, Target always has the best selection of books for all ages!

Let’s tackle some chores I’ve been avoiding! I love starting the new year off with a fully reset house! I got these drawer dividers for my son‘s dresser and I am obsessed! They are so sturdy and it really allowed me to maximize the space in his dresser and keep it super organized! When I fold my kids pajamas, I like to roll their pants into their top to keep it together as a set! I feel like this makes it super easy for them to grab their pajamas at night!

it that parent struggle to find a place for everything
I absolutely love watching my kids open their gifts and see their excitement about everything that we picked out for them! But I always catch myself wondering where in the world am I going to put everything. Here is how I organized my kids toys this year! I use clear containers to tuck away all of their small toys and crafts and it helps so much! I also like using these bigger metal bins in their playroom to store their bigger toys and I rotate toys on top of the benches in their playroom for them to play with! I didn't love where I put some of the bigger toys, but we are somewhat limited on space so we are just going to roll with it!
Then all of the other miscellaneous toys just end up in random cabinets around our house

Here are three easy ways to celebrate New Years Eve with your littles!

1. A $5 DIY balloon drop! You can start your new years countdown early if you don’t want them staying up late. So fun and easy to do!

2. New Years countdown: have them pop a balloon every hour until New Years! You can also have them pop a balloon every 5/10/15 minutes etc if you want it to be shorter!

3. Cookies and milk toast: my kids don’t like carbonation so instead of doing sparkling cider we do cookies and milk!

What’s your favorite new years tradition?
