Now that my daughter is almost 18 months I feel I have a good grasp on what makes the perfect gift for a 1-year-old. I always struggle with gift-giving, especially when it comes to children and what toys are appropriate for what ages. The suggested ages on the packaging are always wrong. I hope some of you are able to benefit from my new-found knowledge of what makes the best gifts for a 1-year-old.
Breastfeeding can be an amazing and wonderful experience. It can also be painful, heartbreaking, and a nuisance. After successfully breastfeeding three children, each for over one year, I hope to offer tips for both breastfeeding and pumping. If I help anyone make their breastfeeding journey a little easier then I will be ecstatic.
It’s back-to-school time and I like to help prep my kids by reading books. These children’s books are great to read before starting kindergarten but some are perfect for any young children! These picture books showcase the fun activities you do at school plus a few address coping skills if your child is experiencing any anxiety about starting school.
Last year before my daughter started preschool I wanted to prepare her as much as possible for the transition. I knew she would be nervous and I think the more you read about what to expect for any situation the better. Together we read through a bunch of children’s books about preschool to help prepare her.
