Stella is not a huge fan of fireworks. The loud, sudden noises overwhelm her. And while we have come up with ways that she can see fireworks without the noise (watch from the car with music on or wear headphones) - I wanted to find a couple of activities to make the day special without...

Parenting is filled with taking advantage of "teachable moments." But then there are those lessons that I want Stella (age 9) to learn that I have to slide into every day conversations. One lesson I feel is important for her to learn - and to start learning now - is to not let her voice... Continue Reading →

I don't know about you but the SLIME CRAZE has taken over our home. Whenever Stella has a spare moment it is used for either looking up videos of other kids making slime or trying it out herself.

Then this morning I decided to look for "Documentaries about Art" on Netflix to see if there is anything that Stella can watch (and be interested in). I found She Writes Comics, a documentary that tells the unknown story of women in comics.
