Finding Christmas gifts for toddlers can seem easy until you take into consideration the clutter aspect.

Fall Activities for Kids
The leaves are changing. The temperature is dropping and it is time to start brainstorming fall activities to do with the kids. I especially like making seasonal bucket lists for the kids because I like to live my life according to the seasons. Whether that is the season of the year or different season…
After School Routine
Having an after school routine is so important and pivotal to how well my house functions during the school year.

Easter Books for Kids and Toddlers
My favorite part of Easter baskets (other than the candy, of course) is getting my kids good wholesome books to add to our Library. I like it to be a wide variety of Christ-centered, faith-based, and seasonal books as well. Some of them we bring out when Lent starts to help my children understand what…
