A simple cleaning schedule for people who hate cleaning!
I’ve been trying to come up with a consistent simple cleaning schedule for years. I’ve tried all of the popular ones and nothing ever seems to stick. Honestly? I’m not someone who likes to clean so I don’t want to have a huge list of cleaning tasks every.single.day. After trying out so many different ideas, I have finally come up with a system that works for me. Just a warning: this system is SIMPLE and the goal isn’t to have a sparkling clean, perfectly pristine house. In this stage of my life, I would rather prioritize spending time with my kids than cleaning all day long. My goal is to…

This post shares over 60 easter basket ideas for toddlers from Amazon including Easter basket alternatives, arts & crafts, toys, books, bath toys, educational toys and practical items!

Stocking Stuffers for Toddlers
I’m not sure what it is, but stocking stuffers are my very favorite gifts to shop for. I love finding small, unique gifts that I know will be bring joy to my family throughout the year. With that being said, I try and be very intentional with what I buy. My main criteria for a good stocking stuffer is that it will be used throughout the year. I try and stay away from seasonal, one use items that I know will be tossed in a day or two. This does mean that stockings cost a little bit more in our family, but I’m happy to spend a little extra to…

Candy Cane Bomb a Parking Lot Printable
I recently heard of “candy cane bombing” a parking lot as a random act of kindness and LOVED the idea! Such a fun way to spread some joy to a whole bunch of people at once! Me, being me, wanted to include a printable with the candy cane, so that people knew why there was a random candy cane on their car. I looked and looked, but couldn’t find any I liked. I ended up creating my own. I then printed them out, cut them and attached candy canes to them with tape. Henry and I then sneakily put candy canes on nearly every car in the Walmart parking lot.…
