It's summertime and I am trying to give my kids as many educational activities as possible. So far they are actually receptive to doing “home” work because we've kept it SO fun.

These are books I've read and loved or have come highly recommended to me! I want more hours in the day to finish all the books on my shelf. Don't you?

I was feeling very renaissance faire inspired when I created this list. Some of the most gorgeous pieces I've ever seen on the world wide web. Enjoy!

This list is for the busy moms trying to find a great deal on Prime Day! Don't buy what Amazon is pushing at you (usually things they're trying to get rid of)… go in with a plan of what you actually need! These items are high rated, some are tested by me, and they are multi-use.

San Juan Capistrano is home to my favorite mission in California (there are 21 in total). The food in SJC is good, the shopping is great, and the vibe of an old farming community is alive and well. Welcome to my favorite Cali city.

You can find the city of Costa Mesa, California between Los Angeles and San Diego. It is a foodie haven, art destination, and casual, coastal adjacent city.

I have an 8 + 6 year old and these are the items the reach for again & again. My kiddos love crafting, playing outside, and reading all the books. I hope you find something unique in our list of favorites.
