there’s a reason some books end up with ripped pages and worn-out covers. they’re the ones Henry reaches for again and again.

and honestly, I never mind reading them one more time.

as both a Pre-K teacher and a mom, I’ve read hundreds of children’s books over the years. the ones in this list aren’t just fun. they’re engaging enough to keep little ones coming back, while building vocabulary, imagination, and a genuine love of reading.

if you’re looking to grow your home library (or just need a good library list), these are the books I’d recommend over and over.

save this for your next library trip 📚 and send it to another parent 💌

📖 If You Give a Mouse a Cookie Series by Laura Numeroff
📖 Pigeon Series by Mo Willems
📖 Nat Geo Kids Series (Dinosaurs, Animals, Ocean)
📖 I Want to be Spaghetti by Kiera-Wright Ruiz
📖 New York City by Paul Hannigan
📖 Just Be Who You Are by Todd Parr

new sibling on the way and your oldest isn't sold yet? same. here's what actually helped — a stack of books, not a lecture, picked as both a teacher and a mom.

#LTKmomlife #LTKKids #LTKBaby

Oh, the Places You'll Go — Dr. Seuss; one note from every teacher, every year, until high school graduation. the most sentimental tradition I've ever come across — and we just started Henry's copy. grab it before the school year ends!

#LTKmomlife #LTKstorytime #LTKKids

Everything I use with my students in the classroom and with Henry at home to build hand strength before kindergarten. Therapy putty, Crayon Rocks, kid scissors, tweezers, lacing cards, beading sets, building toys, and kid chopsticks — all organized by what they actually build

#LTKmomlife #LTKKids

The bonus rule: follow the excitement, not the list; Henry lights up for NYC books. Seeing places he actually knows? He’s hooked. The best book is always the one they can’t wait to open.

#LTKmomlife #LTKKids

Ages 4–5: stretch their attention span; longer stories, early phonics bridges, books that make them ask questions

#LTKmomlife #LTKKids

Ages 2–3: humor + feelings. both matter; Mo Willems is a genius and the research backs it up — emotional vocabulary starts here

#LTKKids #LTKBaby #LTKmomlife

Ages 1–2: repetition is the whole point; if they ask for the same book 12 nights in a row, that’s the book working.

#LTKKids #LTKmomlife #LTKBaby

Ages 0–12 months: it’s not about the story yet; sensory input, high contrast, your voice. These are the ones that do the job

How I style our media console and the 🔑 is to not overthink.

✨ Function first: this doubles as a toy storage
✨ The formula: a few meaningful pieces, textures, bearing heights, and leaving some space to breathe

Bathroom glow-up ✨ We swapped out everything—medicine cabinet, sink, and vanity—for a fresh new look. Loving the modern vanity with a little antique charm from the new knobs (seems expensive but I actually chose a designer dupe version of the medicine cabinet and the vanity was also on the cheaper end!).

Living room reveal! It’s been months since we moved in, and this space is still a work in progress—but that’s the fun part, right?

Cute little delivery from Pottery Barn today ❤️

NEW FLOORS! It was an exciting day for the kitchen as it drastically transformed the space. The old floor consisted of cracked old tiles with grout lines that were too dirty to even get cleaned. We used peel & stick vinyl (these are the “Bonneville” pattern in white and charcoal from @wallpops x @chrislovesjulia) that were fairly easy to install, no tools need except to measure the cut offs. My husband is the real MVP for doing all the work

4 RENTER & BUDGET friendly kitchen updates we’ve made so far…

✨New kitchen knobs: I couldn’t believe how big of a difference these made to the cabinets. And after giving the doors a decent wipe down, I love the way now look. I opted for an antique looking one because we’re going towards a classic theme for the overall kitchen aesthetic.
✨Faux soapstone contact paper: this was more of a challenging and time consuming project but with some patience, it was well worth it. The old countertops were old and just blah looking (and no matter how much I cleaned they still looked dirty 🫠). Pro tip: spray the sticky side with all purpose cleaner so it can be easily moved while installing.
✨Peel & stick tile backsplash: I made a Reel about this already and still loving these @smarttiles.official.
✨Magnetic motion sensory lights: this changes the entire mood of the kitchen and they’re rechargeable!

The day started slow, then came a spontaneous Facebook Market find with this beautiful antique Carrara marble top bar/cabinet!! It was stashed away in storage and the owner actually delivered it from Brooklyn. I can’t wait to turn it into a bar/entryway piece with some cute decor piece

#LTKhome

First small reveal of the kitchen and I’m beyond pleasantly pleased with how this project came out! It just shows you that just because you’re renting doesn’t mean you have to be stuck with the current backsplash situation.
