Montessori Busy Board
One of the very first times I ever saw or little girl be completely mesmerized was the day we gave her this toy! I was so surprised to watch her pull out each tissue, set it down, and then put each one back in over and over again! This toy is a stapl...

Not sure if it’s a sign of the times, but out girl has been obsessed with anything with a screen from the day we brought her home! As she got older, she would alway try to take mommy or daddy’s phone, which was a no no (of course). So I decided to co...

Tummy time was NOT a good time for us as new parents. Our little girl wasn’t a fan and we couldn’t figure out how to keep her engaged without immediately crying. This mirror mat changed everything for us! The moment she saw herself in the mirror, it ...

This is one of the best gifts we could’ve been given for tummy time! Once our girl was able to roll over, she would spend hours playing on this mat and just having a blast! Ever since she was born, her little legs were always going. So the little pia...
