I LOVE this skirt and sweater! I have them both in multiple colors! As a school counselor, I dress for a school building where every single classroom I visit is a different temperature 😂 I need to get creative most days! So here’s a way I can style one skirt multiple ways and for multiple temps!

#LTKFindsUnder50 #LTKWorkwear #LTKootd

I have this dress in 2 colors and always find myself going for them when I can’t decide what to wear!

#LTKOver40 #LTKPetite #LTKootd

This post is a shout out for Walmart stepping up their quality game! This sweater is so good and under $20 🤩 Also, I found a new fave boot sock that I bought 2 packs of! It’s the little things :)

To say I’m totally loving this lanyard is an understatement! It’s been a total game changer for me to finally carry around all the things and not lose them or feel like my pockets are full! Multiple teachers bought one after seeing mine at school and love their’s too 🤩

Wondering how Underground Spirit Week works 🤔 Think hidden themes, creative outfits, and morale boosting fun 🤩 Each day, a secret theme is worn by the staff and the students have to try and figure it out. Each teacher starts out the morning with their own set number of prizes to hand out and if a student comes up to them and guesses correctly, we rewarded them with treats or a school prize ticket! It was so fun 😄

Looking for a sensory wall that actually lasts 🙋🏼‍♀️ This sensory wall is a must-have because it’s so durable! I used Velcro dots to make it removable, so kids can either take it and use it or leave it up to use as a multi-sensory wall! This is amazing for a calm space in a classroom, permanently yo in a school hallway, or even at home in a bedroom 😌

#LTKHoliday #LTKKids #LTKGiftGuide

Love this fidget!!!! The kids love trying to figure it out!

Do you ever find that kids get stuck in negative thought loops? Here’s how “thinking” fidgets can help them break free!

Fidgets that engage your thinking are more effective for breaking out of mind traps and limbic loop cycles because they require cognitive effort, which helps redirect the brain from unproductive thought patterns to purposeful focus.
