Mom Hacks

Front-yard turned into a magical wonderland? Absolutely! Grab the sprinkler and turn on the fun for a refreshing escape from the heat. While the giggles erupt, transform your garage door into a building bonanza with magnetic tiles. The possibilities are endless – towering castles, whimsical creatures, or anything their imaginations conjure!

Taming the toy tornado can feel impossible, but it doesn't have to be! Here's the secret: a little organization goes a long way. Sort toys into categories (blocks, dolls, cars) and use bins or baskets for easy cleanup. Label them with pictures for little ones, and involve them in putting things away. Not only will you create a calmer space, but you might even rediscover some forgotten favorites!

While school may seem like a distant land in March, it's actually the perfect time to snag amazing deals on school supplies! By starting early, you can avoid the back-to-school rush and take advantage of clearance sales on notebooks, backpacks, and other essentials. Plus, spreading out the cost throughout the year makes it easier on your wallet – leaving you more room for that summer vacation or that special something you've been eyeing.

Feeling the dreaded "I'm bored" blues? Bust out the creativity with a fresh craft project! Explore tie-dyeing plain white shirts, or let them unleash their inner artist with finger painting. Building a fort out of blankets and pillows offers a cozy escape, while constructing paper bag puppets sparks imagination and promises hours of storytelling fun. The options are endless – time to unleash the crafting chaos (in a good way)!
