Talking to Kids about Emotions {Inside Out Feelings Flash Cards}

Filed Under: Entertainment, Free Printables, Kids Activities, Mental Health, Motherhood

The past couple of weeks Ronin’s little league baseball team was in the playoffs. The season definitely started with some strong emotions on both of our parts, being his first year playing. But he ended up LOVING it. And as the kids got into a groove and gelled as a young team things started to get really exciting. They were winning […]

Avengers: Age of Ultron {Review and Free Printables}

Disclosure: I received tickets to an advanced screening of Avengers Age of Ultron to facilitate this review. All opinions are my own. Avengers: Age of Ultron is a highly entertaining film, full of fast action and striking humor. We thoroughly enjoyed it. But before I share more of my thoughts, I wanted to start with a brief synopsis from […]

Soul Sessions, A Novel {Review}

Filed Under: Entertainment, Media

I recently read the novel Soul Sessions by Carson Gage. I picked it up for Amazon Kindle and just dove in.  Reading has become a huge part of my “me time” after the kids go to sleep at night. Oh how I love relaxing in bed with a good book, one that offers an interesting distraction […]

Skylanders Skystones Card Game and Other Party Ideas

Filed Under: Entertainment, Kids Activities, Parties/Holidays

My kids (and husband) have a dear love of Skylanders. We’ve been fans for about two years and in that time have collected all four games and a ton of the characters and traps. John, being the game developer he is, instantly took to the video game,  and the kids who are also natural born gamers, followed his lead and never […]

Inspired by Big Hero 6: Baymax Rice Ball and Party Ideas

Filed Under: Entertainment, Free Printables, Gluten Free, Kids Activities, Parties/Holidays

  Have you ever had an animated film touch your heart? As a mom with littles, most of my current in-theater movie experience is family entertainment. Ronin and Ellie mainly enjoy animated-style films versus live action. But honestly that’s OK for me because these days there are some incredible animated movies, with characters and story lines that […]

Facebook Rolls Out New Suicide Prevention Feature

Filed Under: Mental Health, Suicide, Tech

Facebook is launching a new suicide prevention feature, and it is so heartening to see social media moving in this direction. Many social media sites have offered ways to “report” suicidal or self harm posts or content for the last few years, but in a new partnership, I believe Facebook is taking things is the right […]

Time-Saving Life Hack: Car Care Multitasking

Filed Under: Discounts, Reviews, Tech

I am terrible at taking care of my car. Seriously, the absolute worst. See that 2013 date of last service? Yeah, I took this photo on Thursday in my very own car window. And to be honest, I’m not really surprised I never noticed how desperately I needed the oil changed.  I rarely think about routine maintenance, and […]
