Stay-At-Home Mom Must-Haves! My go-to items that make stay-at-home mom life smoother, calmer, and a little cuter 💙 Real Life Essentials tested my busy toddler.

I am rarely lost for words, but in this description I am. I think it’s because I really view my motherhood experience with a new set of eyes each week (the benefits of therapy I guess). I was a young mom the first time around - pregnant at 21 and gave birth at 22 - we had our second just three weeks after our first turned 3 (I 25 if you’re keeping track). Then at 27 I was surprised to learn I was pregnant for the last time. We had been on the fence about another baby and my primary thought about having more children was that we needed to be done before I was 30. Any who, short story long these are my recs as a mom who feels like they’ve been a totally different parent with each new baby.

After watching my son struggle to focus at school I decided to withdraw him and jump into homeschool. I knew he understood The curriculum they were doing at school because he was also doing it at home with no problem. So when I had multiple conferences with his teacher about him not being able to do his school work I decided it was time to do it myself. We are now a year into homeschooling and he is thriving. Sometimes school can be overwhelming for kids and it's not natural for them to sit down for 7 to 8 hours. I focus on a lot of interactive learning and it works well for my 2-year-old and my 6-year-old. I have listed some products that have really been key opponents to thriving in our homeschool experience.
