CHILDHOOD REVISITED


I loved playing with my Legos when I was a kid. I used to sit
with them for hours constructing all kinds of stuff. Rowan got a Lego set as a birthday gift. Today we spread them out, and I played like I was 9 years
old again. I felt like Rowan and I were just 2 kids hangin’ on a rainy afternoon. We made a flower garden, a magical castle and an apartment
building. This reliving of
your childhood aspect of being a mom is pretty cool.

    What a great picture. A beautiful little boy to boot. Legos and
    tinker toys were my thing as a kid. I loved the playdough hair salon. I played with that for hours.

    Yes, his hair is fantastic!

    I didn't play with trains when I was little, but when my oldest son was about 2 he started collecting Thomas the Tank engines trains and tracks. And I got so into it! We would spend hours and hours building the most elaborate tracks we could think of.

    The trains were tucked away in bins until last weekend when my 9-year-old decided to get them all out. We spent Sunday afternoon building tracks. It was so nice to just play.

When I was challenged with my own feelings while parenting, I started creating activities that could help kids and parents open up about their emotions. It was so therapeutic and helpful, so I put my feelings activities together into a book. I created the book that I wanted for my own parenting, and I am so thrilled to share it with you.
Vanilla Blueberry Yogurt Pops. I made this recipe this week after posting it in my newsletter and it was so fresh and yummy, so sharing it here! I used to make these yogurt pops all of the time for my son and he would eat them for breakfast. If blueberries are not in season use frozen wild blueberries or whatever frozen fruit you like. They are really easy to make and you can even add some oats if you want to make them even more nutritious for breakfast. ⁠
Try Flower Breathing 🌸 In my last reel, I showed how to make these cardboard Lavender scented flowers. The "pistol" is scented with lavender oil which is a very calming and make it fun. The act of breathing in and out, calms the nervous system and get kids introduced to breath work. Flip through the images and use it as a guide plus one of the images is instructions that you can screen shot. 🌸⁠
