Most months our lives are so full of events, appo Most months our lives are so full of events, appointments, and commitments that this calendar is not only helpful but absolutely necessary. With the current state of the world, who even knows what day it is 🤷‍♀️ #covid19 #socialdistancing #whatdayisit #commandcenter #organizedmom #tryingatleast
Today marks day 18 of social distancing for our fa Today marks day 18 of social distancing for our family. To keep up some degree of fun I recreated @masterchefjunior at home for our aspiring chef. He loved this "fully stocked Master Chef pantry". See more in my stories. How is your family making the best of this time at home? #masterchef #masterchefjr #creativeplay #imaginativeplay #letthembelittle #momlife #stayhome #pretendplay #kitchenorganization #pantryideas
Hectic mornings have been replaced with slower one Hectic mornings have been replaced with slower ones. "Not right now" has been replaced with "sure why not" Rushing to dress for the day has been given up for the comfort of pjs. Trying new things and making the most of our new normal has become a priority. Most days aren't even close to magazine worthy but today he asked to make his own eggs and we had the gift of time to let him. I pray these days of uncertainty and worry don't ever make it into their memories. I want them to remember our simpler, slower, learn-to-cook days instead. How are you handling the changes in the world today? Share below👇 #simpledays #simplicity #easydaysathome #letthembelittle #childhood #learningtocook #joyfulmotherhood #stayhome
Maintaining some degree of order in our house is e Maintaining some degree of order in our house is essential for my own well-being. I am very Type-A and like having a plan. Schedules and plans help me to feel accomplished and at ease. Anything beyond a day without a schedule or plan and I find myself feeling frazzled and overwhelmed.⁠ ⁠ When we were called to stay home, I decided to put together this little schedule for our family. As a mom of three kiddos, I wanted to encourage play and learning but also make fun memories of crafting, baking, watching TV, and being outdoors.⁠ ⁠ We are staying fluid with this schedule. Some days we mark everything off the list with positive attitudes and excitement, and some days either I or the kids just aren't feeling it and we do what we can and make the best of the rest of the day.⁠ ⁠ Have you created a schedule for your family during this time of social distancing?⁠ How are you handling social distancing right now?
Last week the Governor of Indiana declared all sch Last week the Governor of Indiana declared all schools would remain closed until May 1st. Due to a shorter school year at his school, Asher's school year ended with that decision. In order to keep up with what he was currently learning and to establish some focused learning time, I created an easy printable that outlines our daily plan. Our focused learning time is less than 2 hours per day and includes a variety of activities to address specific areas he was learning before. Even Miss Ellery has asked to "do school" each day! Click the link in my bio to learn more about how I am simplifying our school at home process for now. If you would like a copy of this printable comment below. If I have interest I will add it to my Printables Vault! #homeschool #schoolathome #covid19 #organized #homeschoolroom #organizedmom #newnormal #simplified #printables
This last week has been chaos for most everyone in This last week has been chaos for most everyone in the world. Our routine has been flipped on its head and there is uncertainty all around us. The lack of control over the recent state of the world has left a type-A like me feeling frazzled, anxious, and stressed. I have decided it is time to attempt to regain some control by getting back into some degree of routine this coming week. I know this routine will be different than what our family is used to but that doesn't mean we can't find peace in our new *temporary* normal. Tomorrow I will share with you how I am setting up a plan for each of these areas to recapture a bit of control for me and my family. Come back tomorrow to see more! #covid19 #caronavirus #socialdistancing #newnormal #organizingtips #regaincontrol #organization #planners #plumpaperplanner #planneraddict
With all the preparation happening around the worl With all the preparation happening around the world, I took some time to sort through and update our home first aid kit.⁠ ⁠ Even when there isn't a global pandemic changing our lives, having a well stocked first aid kit is important. One is especially important when your home includes children. ⁠ ⁠ Having a home first aid kit means you will be able to treat everything from bumps and bruises to colds to cuts and scraps at home.⁠ ⁠ I shared on the blog this week what is included in our home first aid kit. Click the link in my bio to take a look.⁠ ⁠ Do you have a well-prepared first aid kit? ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #firstaidkit #prepared #organizedhome #motherhood #letthembelittle #kidswillbekids #messykids #organizedfirstaidkit #firstaid #covid19 #organizedmom #organized #homeorganization #preparedmom #momoflittles #momofthree #planner #planahead #plannermom
The recommendation for preparing for social distan The recommendation for preparing for social distancing has been to prepare your home with one month's worth of supplies. This includes food and household supplies.⁠ ⁠ It may cause anxiety trying to figure out what your family needs for one month. If you are finding yourself wondering if you have enough food for one month click the link in my bio to sign up for my free printables vault and grab your own copy of my Food Inventory Sheets.⁠ ⁠ I have used these sheets to take inventory of everything we have in stock. From this inventory, I was able to create a list of all the meals we can make. Now I know how many more meals I will need to prepare and shop for. This will make sure our family is doing our part to purchase only what we need to maintain social distancing.⁠ ⁠ ⁠ What are some of the meals you're planning to make for your family during this time?⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #foodinventory #COVID19 #freeprintables #foodinventorysheets #organizedhome #momswhoorganized #preparedfamily #socialdistancing #doingourpart
Our downstairs looks like a construction site. The Our downstairs looks like a construction site. The weather is cold and rainy. The big kids are eating mostly snacks. We've watched more TV today than I care to admit. Schooling at home has been less organized than I would like. BUT I am going to roll with it. Life has asked us to slow down. The Lord has given is an opportunity to power down and just be for a while. So I will work each day to embrace the slower, less structured life. It is in opposition to my type A soul but again I am going to roll with it. I am also going to pour my desire for tidy and organized into designing new printables. Anyone interested in some easy to use homeschooling printables? #covid19 #socialdistancing #momoflittles #organizedmom #printables #crazymom #momofthree #homerenoprojects #homeschooling #homeschoolmom
