Pack Your Bags!

Pack Your Bags!
As a mom, packing for a vacation can get those stress levels rising! Not only are we packing for ourselves but we are also responsible for the kids and sometimes, the fur babies. Now that my kids are a little older, I thought it was time to pass some of the pre-vacation responsibilities to my boys. 


I needed a system that was simple, straight forward, and easy to read and explain to my kids. This "Pack Your Bags!" free resource, provides written text for readers, pictures for non-readers, and gives them the control of checking things off the list as the get things done. 

If there is one thing I have learned from my background in child development, it is that kids love multiple forms of sensory input. This resource provides, visual cues as well as the gratification of a check box using a marker or pencil to mark completion! 

This resource provides kids with the opportunity to:

-Work on their counting skills
-Work on identification skills
-Learn the written word for the objects
-Provide a sense of responsibility 
-Provide an opportunity to work with colors if you want to get more detailed. My kids need all the help with matching they can get! 

You can grab your FREE PRINTABLE HERE!

I can't wait to hear how you use this resource.

Travel Necessities!

Travel Necessities!
Anyone else feel like their home away from home is the car? 🙋‍♀️ The boys and I are always on the go and my car has turned into a disaster zone. 

We have mastered the leaf blower trick to clear out remaining debris and snacks BUT it is harder to kick the stale odor of dirty feet, Chick- Fil-A, and burps & farts that these boys can't seem to get enough of. 
If you spend long chunks of time in your car, this Black Friday Collection is right up your alley!
The Viya Collection comes with:
- Viya diffuser. Hook this bad boy up to a USB connection and it in your cup holder. It's sleek and subtle. It makes your car smell amazing without the use of fragrance. It runs up to 7 hours! 

- Aromaease oil. If movement isn't your cup of tea, and long periods of travel get to your stomach and head. This is the oil for you. I like to place it behind my ears and under my nose. This would be perfect to drop in the diffuser as well. 
- Citrus Fresh oil. This uplifting blend of citrus oils is sure to freshen up your vehicle. They can also help remove any goop the kiddos leave behind. 
- Stress Away roll-on. To ease any tensions you might experience while traveling! Whether it's crazy drivers, wild kids, or simply a long day back and forth, this is an oil that will help you put your mind at ease. 
- Thieves Spray. We take this everywhere we go. We use it to wipe down tables that have not been cleaned. Spritz dirty surfaces. We take it into public restrooms in case the situation is not very appealing. Now, we also use it to spritz our masks!

It is a great collection to treat yourself with or gift to someone you know! You could even purchase the collection and split it up between several recipients 🙂

Through Friday, November 24th or while supplies last , I will be throwing in a FREE 2 ounce bottle of Thieves Hand Sanitizer to complete your travel kit! 

Who else could use something that makes their on-the-go experiences enjoyable?!
