Affordable homeschool supplies and everyday essentials for parents who want practical, organized, and stress-saving tools. These are the homeschool must-haves we rely on daily.

My life is held together by washi tape and sheer determination. This list is full of my everyday stationery essentials for planning and journaling: pens that don’t smudge, planners that actually get used, sticky notes that won’t curl, and washi tape that makes organizing more fun. If you’re into bullet journaling, creative planning, or just need dependable supplies to stay organized, these are the tools I truly love and use daily.

I’ll be honest, I’m a homebody. I don’t leave the house unless it’s worth my time, cash, calories, and energy. So when we do go out as a family, it has to check all the boxes: fun, family-friendly, and not ridiculously expensive or exhausting. You won’t find a ton of crowded tourist traps here (because nope 🙅‍♀️), but I did sneak in a couple of the bigger spots where you can still catch a breather: think wide open spaces or spots that aren’t a total sensory overload. This list is basically our go-to collection of local gems in Northwest Florida that let us make memories without draining the whole tank.
