Activities for Kids

Motherhood

You will find all of my blog posts on my life as a mother on this page. If you are looking for specific topics, check out my subpages. As a mom of two, I have a lot to share from birthday parties & library trips to weekly recaps of our daily life.

I love coming up with activities for my kids. On this page, you will find all the hands-on projects you can do with your children from art projects to STEM activities. Bonus, I hate spending money, so the majority of our activities are budget-friendly!
