How to Help Kids Get By With Less TV and Video Game Use

By Tiffany 7 Comments

We will never be a TV free family. We enjoy our televisions and our gaming consoles here. We also have smart phones, tablets, and rokus. These are modern luxuries that we happen to love. It is all about keeping things in perspective though. Sometimes we need to do a technology cleanse (or detox) if usage is getting out of hand. We also need to remember that life should be experienced with all of our senses and not just viewed with a screen. Kids may need assistance from mom and dad with this … [Read more...]

A Weekend of Sewing

By Tiffany 11 Comments

On this lovely sunny Friday... even though we have a teeny layer of snow on the ground... I really feel like cleaning up my sewing area and getting to work this weekend.

Painting Piggy Banks- An Unplugged Project

By Tiffany 3 Comments

My oldest was on Spring break this last week and we did a variety of "crafty" projects. One of my favorites was our painting piggy banks project. We ended up buying two ceramic piggy banks at Kroger. My kids wanted some sort of "treat" which is code for toy. I told them my stipulation was that they pick something that will last, that isn't plastic, and that does not have excessive packaging. Mommy is MEAN huh? They picked out two ceramic piggy banks (unpainted) much to my delight and when we … [Read more...]

15 Things I do to Save Money

For instance, we make our own play dough. 6. I shop at garage sales. 7. I make my own household products or beauty … [Read more...]
