    Back to School Activity Book – 30 + Pages to Get Them Excited About School Now

    August 10, 2020 / No Comments

    Let me just note right off the bat that I support you and trust you all to make the right decisions for your family. This Back to School Activity Book is meant for you to share with your kids. Oh, believe me, I know there’s never been a year that is more fraught with concern than this one. But Back to School season is coming, no matter what you think or where you stand on the back to school protocol for your region. I know it’s anxiety provoking. But, that said, it’s also extremely important not to convey too much of that to kids. That’s why I wanted to share…

    Back to School Shopping Doesn’t Need to Be Scary

    August 1, 2018 /

    I have partnered with YMC and Staples and have received compensation for this post. All opinions are my own. The closer my kids get to college or university the scarier life gets for me as a parent. My oldest starts Grade 12 this year and my youngest is heading to Grade 9. Both kids are in high school. Which gets me thinking about the costs involved in attending college or university. Lately I lay awake at night or I break out in a cold sweat randomly throughout the day thinking HOW will we ever afford college or university? Have we saved enough? High school, which is basically preparation to get your…

    Start Your School Year Off With a New Laptop

    July 26, 2018 /

    This is a sponsored post which means I received compensation. My opinion is all my own and it is also truthful. Are you shopping for a new laptop computer this summer? Is your old friend on the fritz? Need a reliable back to school laptop that rocks? Lucky for you I have the answer to your computer issues. The brand new HP Envy x360 is sleek and powerful. It has everything you need to start the school year on the right foot. And the style is strong in this new laptop too. Take a look. HP Envy x360 laptops are 2-in-1 devices that can transfer from a laptop to a…

    WillLand Outdoors Backpacks for Back to School #BackToBackpacks

    August 28, 2017 /

    WillLand Outdoor Backpacks make back to school easier and stylish. My high school student is starting the new school year with the Delisioza. Her last one was just a bit too small for the bigger books that come with going into grade 11. We also can’t wait to use Luminosa Forte Freedom for all the traveling, hiking, and skiing that we do. We love WillLand Outdoors backpacks because they’re high-quality and make it easy to carry everything you need. WillLand Outdoors Backpacks From School to the Outdoors WillLand Outdoors backpacks are designed to work hard, and that’s important to me. Whether you’re headed back to school, off to work, or on…

    How to Make The Most Of The Last Days of Summer

    August 9, 2017 /

    This post is sponsored by Bayer. To make sure these products are right for you, always read and follow the label. Summer always flies by much too fast. July, my favourite of all the months, slides by at a maddening speed. It is a quicksilver month. If you don’t squeeze a lot into that short little window it vanishes right before your eyes. Hopefully you had some great weekends, or a vacation at some point there. August brings with it a sense of urgency almost. I mean at some point in August everyone starts counting down the days left until school starts. That always makes me sad. Summer should be so…

    Goat Milk Triple Berry Smoothies for Back to School #BornOnTheFarm

    August 7, 2017 /

    Goat milk was not on my radar until my daughter started having allergy issues when she was little. We took her to the doctor for chronic ear infections, among other things, and he suggested we switch her over to goat milk. So we did for a couple of years, and we saw a vast improvement. These days, we’ve started using it again occasionally for lunches, as well as for before school and after school snacks. It’s normal for us to have several different kinds of milk in the fridge at all times. For us, Goat Milk is a handy and healthy addition to the routine all year round. It helps make a…

    Caribou Cabin – A New Line of Framed Whiteboards #Giveaways

    August 3, 2017 /

    Caribou Cabin is a new line of chalk, cork, pin, and whiteboards from one of my favorite companies, Posterjack. If you’ve been reading my blog for a while, you know that I’ve used Posterjack products in the past, and I love them.

    Printable Fill In The Blank Teacher Notes for Back to School #BTS

    September 5, 2016 /

    It’s almost time for back to school, which also sadly means it will soon be time for school colds, and flu bugs and doctor’s appointments. This year, I’m prepared with these handy printable Fill in the Blank Teacher Notes and you can be too. These are ideal for those occasions when you have a sudden appointment in the middle of the school day. One of the first ever blogger conferences I attended featured a sponsor with the cutest pre-printed teacher notes. In fact, they were such a hit that I used them all year round. They simplified my job as a Mom. I attached a pre-printed note like these ones…

    We all know Hallmark for cards and fun singing seasonal toys. But did you know that Hallmark has stylish stationery too? It’s true. This year Hallmark’s beautiful back to school stationery and one of a kind gifts have captured my imagination. This year these adorable Toe of a Kind socks showed up here and the kids flipped. UNI-Kitty is hilarious and so fun for my tween starting back to high school next week. And the Game On Toe of a Kind socks are super cute for my Pokemon and Minecraft loving tween. These couldn’t have been better suited to my girls. Ever since the Peanuts Movie came out my youngest has been captivated…
