A simple homemade toy, Waldorf Hand Kites have been a staple in our playroom for years. This year we’re making sweet Jingle Bell Hand Kites for all the littles on our Christmas list! I made our first Waldorf hand kite when Ella was just one year old. It was simple and quick to make and…
These Baked & Loaded Potato Skins are the perfect appetizer for football season. Football isn’t a huge thing where I live – but my family is a football family.

I’ve recently been converted to the pour-over coffee.
It’s been the perfect solution to my desire for single-serve coffee without causing excess waste (and not worrying about those machines that can build up bacteria because they can’t ever be fully cleaned). I still have my large 12-pot coffee maker for when I have guests, but the pour-over coffee is perfect for when it’s just me (and stops me from going back for cup after cup, even when I make the smallest pot allowed with my coffee maker).
Ella and my first family vacation was in Bermuda, and it’s a family memory I hold dear. Every year I buy myself a hibiscus tree not just for the gorgeous flowers and pop of colour, but also to bring a bit of Bermuda into our home as a reminder to slow down and enjoy the memories.

We’ve been making a few fun bath products for grown-ups recently, like our Coffee Sugar Scrub, so I thought it would be only fair to make something fun for the kids. We’ve already experimented with homemade fizzy bath bombs so this time we tried making Play Dough Soap – a bath time play dough that…
I almost didn’t share this activity – it’s really too simple! But after sharing our scrubbing dinosaurs to learn how to brush our teeth activity, I know that a lot of families struggle with tooth flossing, so I thought I’d share a fun way to teach kids how to floss teeth! Ella is pretty good…
