I am so excited to be partnering with The Pencil Grip to share their awesome new Thin Stix with you. We all have different strengths and different needs, right? One of my strengths, I do believe, is my willingness to let my little ones get messy. It really doesn’t bother me one bit watching them…

The Great Boat Float: Teaching Rhyming to Preschoolers

February 21, 2017 by Sarah 1 Comment

A little while ago I was playing a rhyming game with my little one when I realized he really wasn’t grasping the concept of rhyming. I tried a different game, and low and behold, he wasn’t grasping it that way either. How could this be?! I thought for sure we had this rhyming thing down!…

Beginning knitter project: a little bunny

November 21, 2016 by Sarah Leave a Comment

We were up North visiting family for the weekend and I felt quite like my Mother. My Mom would always (always) be knitting away when we went on long car rides, and this car ride I was doing just that. Now, there is one humongous difference of course. My Mom is an experienced and excellent…

August 28, 2013 by Sarah 6 Comments

I find manners are so very important.  Perhaps it is being born and raised Canadian (teehee), but I want my wee ones to know manners and use their pleases and thank yous.  Teaching manners to kids can actually be quite simple, and even broken down into 5 steps. So – how can you teach your…
