There's been a lot of trial and error along the way, but the biggest success we've had is in following his interests and joy and letting him focus there. He loves gaming, parkour, jiujitsu, cooking and music. Below are some essential items that have supported our homeschool journey.

Kat Rose
I love this age. Four year olds are not toddlers anymore, but they also aren't quite school-age "kids" yet either. They have interests that range from Barbies to Spider Man to Disney Princesses to Legos to pretend play and more! Gifting for this age is so much fun, but it can also be tricky. By this age, they probably are starting to outgrow some of their "baby" toys and are starting to look at things like Lego sets or pretend make up or even early reading. It's important to cater to their interests and to respect their parents' preferences. Don't gift just another toy that'll get buried and forgotten. My list will help you stand out at the next birthday party for a 4 year old that you attend!

When my sister was pregnant with her first baby in 2020, we wanted to celebrate her in a way that felt special, even with all the challenges of that time. We hosted an outdoor baby shower with a "Little Cutie is on the Way" theme—full of bright citrus colors, fresh florals, and sweet personal touches. It turned out to be such a beautiful and memorable day, proving that even when things don’t go as planned, you can still create something meaningful. I put together this list to help you bring this fresh and fun theme to life! Whether you're planning a big celebration or an intimate gathering, these handpicked ideas for décor, food, and favors will make your shower feel effortlessly special. You can also read all about my sister’s shower below for more inspiration! 🍊✨

I've been the team mom for my daughter's travel volleyball team for several years. Here are some of my favorite go-it items for the backpack I take to every game, as well as a few things I stash in the car. Everyone is always impressed by how prepared I've been, and I've also been able to help girls on other teams a few times too. It makes the long hours in the convention center a little easier when you have everything in one place! Some of these recommendations are specific to volleyball, but most of them could work for soccer, basketball, lacrosse, or whatever sport your child plays!

Every parent with a tablet-obsessed little artist has the same problem — hundreds of digital drawings saved in a cloud folder nobody ever opens. I wanted her art displayed like it mattered, not buried in a device. After months of trial and error with bad prints and flimsy binders, I finally nailed a system that makes her scribbles look like they belong on a coffee table. If you've got a kid who draws constantly and you're drowning in digital files, save yourself the headaches I went through.

You know that moment when you take your baby out of the carrier and suddenly you're holding this giant wad of fabric with nowhere to put it? I spent months shoving mine into the bottom of my stroller or draping it over my shoulder like a weird scarf. This list is for parents who babywear but need practical storage, organization, and accessories that actually fit into real life. Took me two kids to figure all this out so you don't have to.

Using a mix of interactive toys, songs, books, and apps made learning Spanish feel fun and natural for my kids instead of like a chore. The engaging songs and playlists helped them absorb vocabulary through repetition, while board books and flashcards reinforced everyday words with bright pictures they loved. Interactive toys and games — especially those that speak Spanish or turn learning into play — gave them confidence to repeat new words and phrases, and digital apps added an extra layer of excitement with colorful characters and simple lessons. Together, these tools created an immersive yet playful environment that kept them curious and excited about learning Spanish .

If you've got a kid who fights car naps like it's their full-time job, steal this list before your next long drive.

Rainy Saturdays used to mean screen time battles and me feeling guilty about it — until I started swapping in hands-on science kits. If you've got curious kids who lose interest in most toys after ten minutes but will spend an hour mixing, building, or growing something weird, this is the lineup that actually held their attention. Took me two years and a lot of duds to narrow it down, so you don't have to waste the money I did.

I don't know about your kids, but if it's above freezing outside, mine want to be outside. When it's hotter than hot outside, I prefer to have them play with water toys to keep everyone cool. Here are a few of our favs that we have gotten from Walmart over the years.These are affiliate links. I may earn a commission at no extra cost to you.

I miscarried my second baby in less than 3 months. I made this list and purchased almost all of these items thinking I would be welcoming my fourth (technically fifth) baby in December. This would've been my first and only girl, to say i'm devastated is an understatement. I'm hopeful to get pregnant by the end of 2025 so I wanted to share this list with you all. Please keep me and my family in your prayers. Love you all sm.

#WalmartPartner. This list contains Walmart affiliate links. I may earn a commission from qualifying purchases. Christmas on a budget doesn't have to look like it. Every gift here was under $25 at Walmart when I put this together, and none of them look like a last-minute grab: cozy stuff for her, useful stuff for the guys, toys the kids will actually play with, a little something for the dog, and white elephant gifts that get stolen. Prices move around, so double-check before you check out.

My nephew refused to walk down the hallway at night without someone holding his hand. He's seven. I handed him a headlamp and suddenly he was an arctic explorer on a mission to the bathroom. If you've got a kid who freezes at bedtime when the lights go off, or you're tired of leaving every single light in the house on all night, this is the lineup that turned fear into adventure. Grabbed most of these over the past two years and every parent in my circle has copied at least one.

Every rainy morning used to end in soaked socks, tears, and me wringing out tiny sneakers on the porch. If your toddler treats every puddle like a personal swimming pool and you're tired of buying replacement shoes every few weeks, this is the lineup that actually held up through mud season, daycare floods, and that one time mine stood in a creek for twenty straight minutes.
