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.

Games, toys, and books I highly recommend for anyone with little ones.

These toys make learning more interesting and engaging, encouraging a positive attitude toward learning new abilities. They also enable parents and caregivers to actively participate in their child's development, resulting in meaningful relationships and shared experiences. Whether at home, school, or on playdates, educational toys are a versatile and effective method to boost a child's development while making playtime useful and enjoyable.

Exploring the world through their senses is how babies learn best. Sensory play is all about experiences that activate your child’s senses and support their development. Through hands-on activities, little ones can explore touch, sight, sound, smell, and taste—while also building important skills like language, coordination, and balance.
