It’s #nationalvoterregistrationday. Let’s make It’s #nationalvoterregistrationday. Let’s make it a whole month! Set your sights on 2 people and remind them every day to register. I’m focusing on my nephew...who are you going enlist??? I’ve posted the link for the voter reg site in my bio link in case you need it!

Friends, what are you thinking for Halloween this Friends, what are you thinking for Halloween this year? Socially distanced Halloween parade? Small backyard gathering with games? Neighborhood block party?⁠ ⁠ I mean, am I right that trick-or-treating is totally not in the cards for 2020?⁠ ⁠ Obviously the front-porch pumpkin game will be strong (how many masked pumpkins do you think you'll see?) but how are we going to replace the joy of Halloween in a safe way?⁠ ⁠ Link in bio to a story that I did for @parents magazine (shot by @thayerandco) with tons of fun activities and games (like this #hauntedhouse building competition) that can keep kids active, but 6-feet apart!
I’ve started this post 4 different ways and they I’ve started this post 4 different ways and they were all filled with such gloom, reflecting on the pain of 9/11, likening it to the pains we are enduring now and it was all TOO much. Yes it seemed like nothing could get worse and yes it actually has, but no one needs to read that and to be honest it’s too painful for me to compose. . So I’m choosing to remember the close friends I had then that banded together to get through the fear and uncertainty. I’m choosing to remember how I volunteered my time to help get aid to people whose livelihoods came to a halt. And I’m choosing to remember how this city came back to life. YES WE CAN do it again. . Just make sure you vote. Oh yeah, and stop with the #genderreveal explosions. It’s one or the other people... (ps I took these pics with a camera and film either on the 11th or the next day) . #911 #september11 #september11th #yeswecan

Last weekend we dog-sat for a dear friend, and we Last weekend we dog-sat for a dear friend, and we absentmindedly left Sommer’s bedroom door open, dangerously exposing her beloved stuffed pups 🐶 to the real pup. Joni, the real pup, is a gem, but she must have a crush on Sommer’s favorite stuffie, Rainbow Chad, because this was her second romp with this pastel canine. Once I discovered the wound I had to gingerly break the news to Sommer because she fully believes that her stuffed animals feel things, both emotionally and physically. She took the news well, and on a whim, I presented her with a silver lining—Sommer, why don’t we make a little felt heart ❤️ and put it inside RC? So Sommer sewed RC’s heart and stitched her up like a little surgeon. Now we’re all convinced that RC can feel things too! ❤️
Even though we aren't going back to school IRL thi Even though we aren't going back to school IRL this year, it's still fun to doctor up some school supplies! We have to make it feel special, right? ✏️ If you are as avid a subscriber to @highlightsforchildren as we are, you may have seen these slightly goofy, but hilarious school supplies that we made for the September 2020 issue. One of my fave ideas is the cheese and cake slice pencil toppers...made from make-up sponges! We painted them with fabric paint (acrylic will work too) and added some puffy paint "icing" accents and put a (bead) cherry on top! So cute you kinda, want to eat 'em, amiright? Bonus: they double as a stress-relieving squishy too! 🧀 I've linked my @amazoninfluencerprogram page to the pic in my profile link if you want to gather all the materials at once!
If you've never googled the terms #STEMprojects or If you've never googled the terms #STEMprojects or #STEAMprojects then you're in luck...I just save your fingers some unnecessary button-pushing. STEAM and STEM are buzzwords that you are probably hearing now more than ever with families searching online for engaging unplugged content to keep your kids busy with productive (and fun) activities. Here are some projects that I crafted for Family Fun Magazine awhile back that were conceived by the amazing @babbledabbledo @leftbraincraftbrain and @curiousjane_fun ! Instructions are in my profile link! (Photos by @aarondyerphoto)

I have a vague memory of a playground huddle as a I have a vague memory of a playground huddle as a kid when one of girls in my class was taking a tally of which candidate our parents were voting for. I remember feeling worried that my answer was "wrong" if it was different from the others. As I said, it's a vague memory, so I don't remember if I told the truth or not, but it stands out to me as a childhood memory worth investigating.⁠ 🗳️⁠ Politics was not a topic in my household growing up in Atlanta. Sure, I knew when new presidents were elected, but I had no idea what the issues were and where my parents stood or why. If you ask my 8 and 9 year old, they unequivocally know where their parents stand. We talk about it constantly and work hard to explain the issues to them on a real, but digestible level. Sometimes I struggle with the language (and my anger) which is why I am so glad that @scholasticinc put together this amazingly fair and honest guide of the two candidates (steered by two of my dear friends, @janenussbaum and @judygoldberg). There are 2 grade level options (grades 3-6 and 7-12) and it's fantastic, interactive, and engaging.⁠ 🗳️⁠ I want my kids to feel proud to stand for what we believe in and be able to talk about it, defend it, and champion it. And when they look back on playground chats about politics, I hope they don't question if they were truthful or not. Click this square in my bio link to check out the site!
Y'all....I don't know about you, but I've become a Y'all....I don't know about you, but I've become a trash hoarder. I have a bag full of cardboard tubes, egg 🥚cartons, bottle caps and Pringles tubes 🍟 (not that I eat them, wink wink). I love the challenge of making crafts from recycled stuff and if that craft can live in my home, either decoratively or usefully, I'm stoked.⁠ ⚓⁠ This lighthouse that's made from a @methodproducts hand wash bottle, a Penn tennis 🎾 ball lid, and a baby 👶🏽food jar can double as a nightlight and a bookend (it's full of sand so it's heavy)!⁠ ⛵⁠ Click this pic in the profile link to the get the how-to!
We have a new camper today and his name is @isaacb We have a new camper today and his name is @isaacboots ! Ok so he’s more of a counselor, or a director even—check out his amazing workouts on his feed if you haven’t heard of him yet! 🌿 Anyway, in partnership with Isaac, we are giving 10% of sales to @nokidhungry if you enter “ISAAC” in the order notes of your purchase. (Isaac has raised hundreds of thousands of 💵 for #nokidhungry since the start of the pandemic.) So if you’ve ever wanted to buy or donate a kit (DM me for info on donations) now is the time!! Maybe YOU have school on the brain, but your kids are still thinking of summer! ☀️
I keep thinking that 2020 couldn't get more bizarr I keep thinking that 2020 couldn't get more bizarre, but alas, I'm so wrong. Again. Now it's the #PostOffice! The assumption that we can put a stamp on something 💌 and it will arrive has never really been questioned (ok, yes, sometimes things do get "lost" in the mail, but let's not harp on that!). Let's think about people that depend on the #USPS for medicine, food, stimulus checks, tax refunds, pension checks for the elderly—it's literally a life/death issue that maddens me to my core. 📭 Click the link in my profile for ways to help fight this absurdity...and a few things you can do with your kids to take action! (Plus how cute is this #howto for a dental floss dollhouse #mailbox!) #SavethePostOffice #SavetheUSPS

One of the unexpected side effects of this pandemi One of the unexpected side effects of this pandemic has been watching my kids’ independence rapidly develop. With all the aspects of their lives being piled on us and us alone, we’ve started outsourcing some of the child-rearing responsibilities to, well, the child! One of the biggest changes is the absence of babysitters! I used to dream of the day that I didn’t have to pay someone $80 to watch tv while my kids slept! And now we feel okay going out to dinner, letting their babysitters @roblox and @youtube take charge. . But I want to be careful not to lean on the fast forward button. They are still in need of our care, coddling, and good sense, but it’s been fun to loosen the reins a bit this summer. . Have you stepped on the gas a bit with your kids too? I mean, my 8-yr-old is driving already! 🤣 (please don’t report me!)
Thank you to @thesmallwoods for combining my two p Thank you to @thesmallwoods for combining my two passions—crafts and a fair, just, and sane future for our country! Not sure if she whipped this up in the last two hours or had various versions on stand-by! Either way, I bow in gratitude! #bidenharris2020 #biden2020
Back to school? What school? Let’s ride this #en Back to school? What school? Let’s ride this #endlesssummer wave and keep crafting like it’s July! IMHO, it’s never too late to order your @campwannabee kit!
Over the last few days, my kids have been asking h Over the last few days, my kids have been asking how many @campwannabee kits have sold. After the first few times I was like, “aww...they are so supportive!” And then today when I revealed my sales total, they ceremoniously presented me with this custom felt flag that @mcohen15 had made by @oxfordpennant to commemorate my sales milestone. I kvelled...big time. . I’ve always dreamed of owning a camp...where everyone is equal and all are welcome. And now I do. It’s called @campwannabee. Thanks so much for supporting this little start-up...and while we are well into August, this summer is never-ending so we recommend keeping the camp vibes alive! Go get yourself a kit! 😘
