Christmas Movie Family Fun It’s the Christmas movie season! With the holidays just around the corner, I start thinking about fun, cozy activities to do as a family. One of our favorite traditions is watching Christmas movies together. There’s just something about hot cocoa, popcorn, and everyone sprawled all over the living room with fuzzy blankets that makes my Mama heart feel very fulfilled and blessed. And besides, with all the bustle of the season, it’s refreshing to have a little downtime together. It’s easy to forget that relaxing and playing together is just as important as buying speci ..read more

Cooking for kids is one of the greatest challenges for moms. It can be especially challenging during the holiday season and even more challenging if you have little ones who seem to dislike just about every food under the sun. I have learned from experience, having three children of my own, that taste is not everything. Some of us mothers also have to take into account how the textures of certain foods feel in the child’s mouth as well as how the food looks. Mama’s with picky eaters know exactly what I’m talking about! For instance, two of my kids do not like onions while the other one loves ..read more

For a lot of us, teaching reading is one of the most stressful parts of homeschooling. What if I told you that you could boost your child’s reading levels in just 15 minutes per day? Also, while your child will need your support and occasional assistance it is something they can do independently?

You may want to reduce your child’s screen time rather than increase it. Sometimes it is more of a pro than a con to let tech help you out. In our modern world ..read more

As moms, we often find ourselves juggling multiple jobs.

Are Online Art Classes Effective?
Mom For All Seasons

This post was written by Art by Dena for the 2023 Back to School Bash. I never wanted to teach. It didn’t interest me in the slightest. My younger sister did, and she irritated me (as little sisters do, especially when you have to share a room with them) by playing teacher, complete with grade books, red pens, and her greatest joy in life… chalk and a chalkboard. We grew up (sort of) and she stopped irritating me. But neither of us became teachers. Ten years ago, I was approached by the head a newly-formed art institute in my neighborhood here in Israel. She had seen my paintings in a show, a ..read more
