My son is autistic and has ADHD, these are some of the products he loves. I tried to inspire you to see what they see through their eyes. Autistic children sometimes need time to be introduced into a super colourful room. It makes their minds go a little all over the place which can lead to them felling over stimulated. Let then show you the colours they want to be introduced into their rooms. Less is more in this case, and they love a organized clean room, it keeps them feeling secure, sage and restful from a busy outdoor
As a mom of four and someone who plans thoughtful, kid‑friendly gifts every year, I know what kids love to receive and what makes Valentine’s Day extra special for little hearts.
Baby needs are so many and the options there are just so overwhelming and the opinions moms have vary drastically that you might be confused by who to listen to, so my list here is for the mom who is practical, plans to have more than one kid and thus, values good quality products over high-end brand names or/and cheap products to just make it through a single baby or a single occasion. I didn’t buy so many things the world recommends or suggests you MUST get that for me just ended up being an unnecessary gadget that takes space.
At the end of this, all I want to say is that if you feel overwhelmed, it’s really very normal and it IS overwhelming but believe it or not, in no time you’ll figure it out and your mom brain while might become a bit forgetful in so many things, it does feel like a new compartment in both your brain and heart open up to help pay attention to all the details and take them in.
You got it, mama!!

I am a middle school teacher of 20 years and mom to a 1st grader. A teacher’s reach only goes so far - it’s important for parents to set their kids up for success. Here are a few tips I suggest to parents and items I use in my home for my own kid.
1. Create a routine.
2. Provide a device-free setting.
3. Set up an area with all necessary supplies.
4. Use a paper homework agenda book.
5. Ask your child to see their finished work, even if they “finished it at school.”
6. Check your child’s parent portal often for grade updates and missing assignments.
7. Don’t be afraid to message the teacher (kindly/professionally) with questions!
8. Encourage independence!
Remember: You spend more time with your child than they do with their teachers. A great education begins at home!
