One thing that drives me crazy is having to repeat myself over and over. When my kids are on summer break from school they are constantly asking when an event is taking place. Do I have tennis lessons today? When are we going camping? How many more days until the State Fair? My solution this summer is to print out large monthly calendars so the family can visually see when everything is.
These seasonal weekly calendars are the most used and requested printables I have ever made. I don’t go a day without looking at our weekly calendar. Each week it’s filled out with our schedule posted prominently on our refrigerator. The calendars help with reminders of all kinds (school, medical appointments, activities, etc) and help facilitate communication between myself and my husband. Plus, every night at dinner we glance over at it to discuss the next day’s plan with our kids. I hope you find these calendar printables as helpful as we do.
My daughter’s birthday is in March which is the perfect time to throw a rainbow birthday party since St. Patrick’s Day makes all things rainbow even easier to find than normal. We incorporated the rainbow theme into the party decorations, food, dessert, and favor bags. See below for inspiration and links.
I look forward to spring like no other person I know. Winter is LONG in Wisconsin. Spring is when I reemerge and agree to go outside again. Let’s take advantage of warmer weather and have some outdoor fun. List all the activities, events, etc you want to accomplish in the new season. You’ll find free printables below to help you create your own spring bucket list.
We recently threw a joint first birthday party for my daughter and my nephew (who were born only a day apart!). When brainstorming for the theme of the party we knew we needed a gender-neutral theme and wanted to keep it very inexpensive. “Wild One” met both criteria and was a smashing success. For ideas and tips on throwing a Wild One 1st birthday party keep reading!
