Still looking for a gift for the traveler in your life? Give them the gift of a new language! I’ve been using @babbelusa for about a month now and I’m loving how easy the app is to use! I’ve been brushing up on my French, but you can choose 14 different languages and start as a newcomer all the way up to advanced. It’s truly a one size fits all gift!

🎃 Pumpkins and 🦇 bats and 👻 ghosts, oh my! The BEST way to get festive in your kid’s room? BOOKS!! 📚 🧡🖤

Owen is at such a fun age where not only is he beginning to understand the concept of holidays and changing seasons, but can express his excitement about it!

I love seeing that little face light up when we talk about Halloween, but need to be careful about what decorations we put up around the house since he loves to get his hands in everything. Toddlers, am I right?

So I’ve got the perfect solution that better yet, doesn’t require a lot of time or money. Every season/holiday, I channel my inner librarian and display appropriately themed books and a couple educational toys on his wall shelves. He loves it! 99% of these items were gifts, meaning I spent next to nothing, and it takes me all of about 5 minutes to get the books swapped out. I’d call that a win-win!

If your child isn’t that into books, this is also a great way to build excitement around reading at any age. Every kid gets excited about the holidays, and research has shown that tapping into your child’s interests can set the stage for engagement in literacy.

🔶◼️🔶Tap the SAVE button (all the way to the right underneath this post) and SHARE this with a mom (or dad!) who would love this idea! Tag me if you share it so I can see how many parents are getting in the spooky spirit with books this Halloween!

Are you still holding out for a few more summer nights, or are you already in fall mode?

We’re still planning on enjoying many evenings outside - I actually get more excited to use our outdoor space when the temps start to drop and I can cuddle up under a blanket next to a roaring fire! 😊 🔥

It’s not too late to enjoy your own outdoor space and the best news is there are some great deals on patio furniture right now! I couldn’t link the exact items pictured (you guys sold out the sectional the last time I posted it!) but I linked several similar options - all under $600 right now! 😯

Our home is filled with so many things that are precious to me because they connect me to certain people or places, or represent a facet of my personality.

In this image alone, more than half the items hold a special place in my heart - and it’s impossible for me to pick a favorite!

-top shelf, left: Dutch porcelain that belonged to my Oma and helps to remind me of her.
-Second shelf, left: a souvenir from a Bath, England street artist. He used a 100+ year old camera to take photos, and developed the images right in the street. The resulting image of Bath Abby, while small, is so beautiful and has so much depth.
-top shelf, right, and third shelf, left: WW2 training manuals that belonged to my paternal grandfather. Though I never knew him, I’ve always felt that my interest in WW2 connected me to him in some way.
-bottom shelf, middle: a vintage microscope that Jacob gave to me when I earned my BS in biological sciences.
-bottom shelf, right: a sketch of the River Thames made for me by a London Street artist.

Here’s a sneak peek of our newest home installment! I linked what I could.

I’m starting to have a huge amount of respect for professional child photographers...I can’t get a good picture of this kid lately to save my life! But I had to share this shirt that was #gifted to me by #comfycamper! The quality is great - it’s thick and soft, the color is very vibrant, and it’s embroidered! Perfect for this little guy that’s all about Sesame Street right now! Use code 20OFFCOMFY to save 20%!

Double tap if like me, you’re getting REALLY antsy to travel again! Even my two-year old is starting to get tired of being in the same place all day, every day. Or, if you’ve traveled recently, tell me in the comments! I’m interested to know what your experience was like.

Where do you do most of your work now that many of us are working from home? This little breakfast nook in our kitchen is my favorite spot in the house, and even though we have an office in the basement, I still find myself gravitating to my favorite little corner to do work. http://liketk.it/2MlQP #liketkit @liketoknow.it
