We recently made the decision to homeschool our preschooler for the time being. The main reason my husband and I made this choice is because our school district has deemed it unsafe for students to have school in-person until COVID numbers go down. Also, we have a new baby on the way and want to take the extra precaution. Once we made the decision to homeschool we needed an area of the house as an organized preschool space. I thought I would share how we set up our affordable homeschool preschool space in case it would help give ideas to anyone else.
Babies receive a ton of gifts when they are born but what about the mama! She is the one who had to deal with morning (all-day!) sickness, labor, and delivery. Moms who have just given birth deserve to be showered with presents. Especially because the next few weeks will be rough-going waking every couple of hours. Here are some great gift ideas for new moms.
I just entered the third trimester of my fourth pregnancy. I have zero desire to nest. That’s just not a feeling I have ever had when pregnant, BUT I am a planner. It is important for me to be organized before a new baby arrives to help the transition go as smoothly as possible. As a list maker, I thought I would share my third trimester to-do list for any other pregnant mamas it may help. A free printable third trimester checklist is included at the end of the post.
My daughter just turned two and we celebrated with a farm-themed birthday party. We picked a farm theme because she loves playing with her animal figurines every day (see “Gifts” section below). Plus, a farm theme is easy and perfect for young children!
If you are contemplating throwing a party with a farm theme take a look at all my ideas and suggestions below.
Never Have I Ever: Pregnancy Edition is an easy baby shower game that can be played at a party or during a virtual baby shower. I’m sure you’ve played this game before in your younger years (while consuming multiple alcoholic beverages) but this edition is appropriate for all ages. Learn more about the mama-to-be and her pregnancy as the questions are asked. It is a great baby shower game to play at the start of a party. Minimal prep needed!
