Kids at Play

Have you read my post, "One Awesome Daddy."  My husband is a man who can do anything, fix anything, build anything, solve any problem.  He just figures a way out no matter what the task might be.  Having a husband like this makes my life as a mommy even more fun.  I find projects for him make or build all the time, now he may not have time all the time but in one weekend he was able to build my daughters loft bed and put in a wood laminate floor in our house.  :) When we make the time he is very productive.  :) 

With summer fast approaching I have so many ideas on what projects I really want to have him and I complete.   The newest idea that I was browsing is Wood Playhouses!!!  They are so adorable!!  I am unsure of the timeline to build some of these fancy mini houses but if I had one of these houses as a child I would have been in heaven!  The time it would take my hubby to build a mini house would probably make us just want to purchase one.  Then I also have to factor in our winters and how to keep the playhouse safe during winter months.   

I remember one of my best friends grandma lived across the street from us and she had a rental unit up stairs and when it was vacant I remember my friend and I played house all afternoon in a small apartment unit.  We wished she would not rent it out but leave it as a playhouse for us.  I did not understand that she needed the income from the rental unit, innocent mind of a child.  

Do you have any projects you would like to create in your near future?  Do you use Pintrest and have so many pins you never now what project you want to do next?

"The Reading Game" Review and Giveaway

Description: The first book in  The Reading Game  learn-to-read series tells the story of a skunk without a stripe who is rejected by the other skunks but finds acceptance among some cats and becomes their defender.  It’s told in rhyme, is beautifully illustrated, and is 32 pages long.  It will be the first book the student reads, and there are five more to follow in this groundbreaking learn to read program. Each of The Reading Game's six stories is told using just thirty new words.  These are broken down into six sets of five words.  The student learns to read each set of five words by playing a simple word matching game.  Frequent exposure through play hard wires these words into long-term memory.  Rote learning is transformed into a fast-paced game with a winner every few seconds. After completing Skunk, Game 1, the student has learned five words (can, cat, is, me, not).  Playing Game 2 adds an additional five w...

Packing for your first ski trip

Pexels - CCO Licence So, you're gearing up for your first ski trip and the excitement is as thick as the snow you're about to conquer. But before you can show off those freshly learned pizza and French fry stops, you’ve got to pack.  Packing for a ski trip can feel like preparing for a chilly expedition to the North Pole, but fear not! With these nifty tips, you'll be ready to hit the slopes in style and comfort. 1. Layer Like a Lasagna Think of your ski outfit as a gourmet lasagna: each layer is crucial. Start with a moisture-wicking base layer (yes, that includes thermal underwear) to keep you dry and snug. Over that, layer a warm and breathable mid-layer—think fleece or a wool sweater that can handle the chill. Top it all off with a waterproof and windproof jacket and pants. Remember, it's all about layers that you can add or peel off because sweating while you ski is less fun than a snowball in the face. 2. Keep Those Fingers Cosy Cold hands can ruin a...
