Dorm rooms these days are so cute — they are basically like apartments now instead of the scary rows of bunk beds from days past. That means that you'll want to bring a little more to your dorm room instead of just an extra pillow. To help out, I've put together a dorm appliances list that will help you narrow down exactly what to bring to school this year. Plus—if you are an Amazon customer, get excited...everything on this list is from Amazon! So no changing out of PJs required. :)  Make sure you check into your individual school's dorm rules and see what is and what Keep Reading

Free printable - thank you for being a great teacher PDF

    When I was a young girl, I always thought being a teacher would be a fun career. I loved going to school and had some amazing educators. I was always a little sad when school let out for summer! One year, we threw an end of year thank you party and everyone wrote notes telling our teacher the impact she had on us, which made her cry (in a good way!). As an adult, I now understand even more fully the impact that educators have on our little ones and wanted to bring that tradition back with a heartfelt teacher appreciation week thank you letter. There are a Keep Reading

This post was sponsored by Orajel™. All opinions and text are mine.  Hey moms and dads, are you ready? Ready for back-to-school? Ready for early mornings and busy days? I'm not quite ready yet! I feel like this summer has flown by. I don't have all the supplies yet or routines down, and I am not ready for the carpool lane again. I need to get on the ball, fast! But with school fast approaching in a little over a week, I need to get my act together. I plan on hitting the store later this week for school supplies at which point we will also be in another form of school prep mode - Keep Reading

all about me free printable worksheet - such a cute children's activity for back to school

My two oldest are so excited for school to start this year. We go to a year-round school, which starts much earlier than traditional school, so we are getting ready to go back and it's only the first week of July! This year I wanted to do something I saw so many moms do last year - give my kids a survey right before their first day of school to document their lives at this point in time. I think it will be so special to keep these and show them to my kids when they are older. Cute Back to School Idea for Elementary Children I can't wait to see their answers to these interview Keep Reading

Update: Here's a cute free printable student survey you might like! When my oldest started preschool 3 years ago, I was woefully unprepared for all the little things you must do throughout the school year. I didn't know you had to sign up to bring side dishes or treats for class parties. I also didn't know that all the parents took turns bringing snacks for the class on a rotating snack schedule. And I surely didn't know I was expected to give the teachers Christmas gifts! Preschool Teachers Get Gifts?!! In case I was every in doubt, the preschool made it clear - they Keep Reading

My sister and I have this longstanding debate. We get into every once in a while, whenever the subject of college comes up in our discussions. We argue debate over whether our kids should be required to go to college. Actually, it usually turns into me telling her that she would be making a mistake if she tells my nephews they don't have to go to college if they doesn't want to. As a college instructor I am admittedly biased on the subject. Here is my reasoning. Should You Require Your Kids to Go to College? In a nutshell, our stances are this: My Sister: She believes her kids Keep Reading

Check out these easy and breakfast ideas for kids!

Check out these easy and quick breakfast ideas for busy school mornings! This year, I have two little ones in preschool and keep the baby at home with me. We do this three mornings a week. So far, my husband has taken them to school more than I have simply because it's only 1 mile out of his way to work, and preschool starts around the time that he'd normally be leaving anyway. My Time Management Issues  He's much better at getting them to school on time than I am.  For some reason, no matter what time I start, I never seem to make it there on time.  I think I'm Keep Reading
