Summer Jackson

I love finding fun, family-friendly things to do close to home! This list is packed with some of our favorite parks, playgrounds, splash pads, ice cream spots, and rainy day activities around Lorain County. Whether you’re looking for a quick afternoon outing or a full day of fun, there’s something here for everyone!

I’m always looking for fun things to do with the kids, so I put together some of my favorite family-friendly places around Ohio! No more hearing “i’m bored” everyday this summer!

I contemplated quitting about 456 times the first few weeks of breastfeeding. It was hard, it hurt and I was TIRED! These are the items that made it easier for me. you got this mama!

Everything I used to make homemade baby food easier 🤍 Baby food maker, freezer trays, bibs, spoons, storage containers & feeding essentials that actually helped me survive the purée stage. If you’re starting solids, making homemade baby food, or looking for baby-led weaning essentials, these are my favorite products for babies 4-6 months.

I have an infant and a 7 year old. We’re always going somewhere so having a diaper bag that’s fully stocked is essential!

My all inclusive list of things you need on your registry! I’m a second time mom and I had sooo much pointless stuff with my first daughter. SO if you don’t see it on here then you probably don’t need it ;)

my essentials that helped me survive the first 4 months 😩

Everything you need for back to school in one place; from school supplies and lunch essentials to backpacks, teacher asks, and more. Saving you time (and Target trips 😅).

My fav Montessori toys at Target 🎯 What are Montessori toys? - Montessori toys are simple, hands-on toys that help kids learn real-life skills through play. They’re usually made to encourage independence, problem-solving, creativity, and focus instead of lights, sounds, and overstimulation. 🐻

I love our family game night! we try to do it every week (try) lol. these are the games we play to keep it fun and competitive in the house 😅

These are the only toys my baby actually uses daily!! great for sensory play, development, and keeping little ones engaged without wasting money on things that sit untouched.

all of the things I keep in my jeep to keep my life a ‘little’ more organized 😉 also the things I have for a little peace of mind !

a few of the products I use to keep my 24/7 restaurant open 😂 seriously it’s like a revolving door over here
