Do babies play?

They’re pretty small. They’re sleeping for at least 14 hours a day. Most of the time, they just lay there.

 Is your baby already overscheduled?

In your bustling world of parenting, it's easy to over prioritize how we think our young one should be spending their time. Music classes, playgroups, screen time, socialization at daycare, spending time with other caregivers who engage your child constantly, reading time… while all of these are important parts of a child’s growth, we often overlook the importance of independent play in their development. 

You’ve dreamt of this moment and now you’re not quite sure what to do. It’s overwhelming and it seems like there is so much information coming from every direction.

The good news is that we’ve been exactly where you are now. And we can help you move forward.

You joke that the best toy you bought for your child was the box the toy came in. You’re standing in your child’s playroom, amid a sea of discarded toys, feeling overwhelmed. With each new child in your family, more money is spent on toys… and you’re not sure if any of them really add educational value to their lives.

Does that sound like you?

Okay, mama, you’re six months into your child’s life. And it’s crazy busy! Your baby may soon be on the move, rolling, sitting and even pulling up. Stimulating your now-older baby requires new activities that will help boost large and small motor skills as well as social, intellectual and language skills.

“EEEKKK! My kids are running around like crazy people and there is CRAP everywhere! 

If you’ve been here, then congratulations, you’re a totally normal parent!

It seems like no matter what you say the entire house becomes a playground full of kids toys, craft projects, discarded shoes, the random Cheerio, and stuff! 

Were you an indoor kid?

In today's technology-driven world, it's easy for children to become glued to screens, missing out on the countless benefits of playing outdoors. In fact, we all could use a little more nature in our lives!

You’ve probably heard of a “sensory basket” or “treasure basket,” but what is it? How will it help your baby? And how do you make one?
