So everyone’s talking about a 90s summer with their kids and I’m loving it! I grew up in that era when summers were simple. My kids will be enjoying days outside at the pool, running through sprinkles, and eating popsicles. No schedule, just fun summer days. 

This outfit reminds me of the 90s with the bright blue colors💙How will you be spending your summer break? #summerootd #athleisurestyle

favorite newborn accessory here’s my little secr favorite newborn accessory 

here’s my little secret to getting things done around the house with a newborn. I love the Wildbird baby carrier! It’s easy to put on and comfy for both of us. My baby boy always falls asleep and I’m able to have productive days. Homeschooling and checking off my daily household tasks is so much easier with this baby carrier. Also my baby boy is 12 pounds so I’m basically wearing a weighted vest and getting my daily workout in!

homeschool activities ♟️ So Maddie and little Ra homeschool activities ♟️ 

So Maddie and little Ray learned how to play chess and they’re so good at it now. They started taking lessons with the free @duolingo app and it’s been so helping in teaching them! Chess is a game of strategy that helps kids learn to evaluate positions, recognize patterns, and analyze “if-then” scenarios. Now it’s time for me to learn lol. 

Do you and your kids know how to play chess? I highly recommend Duolingo (it’s free) if your kids want to learn a new language or learn how to play chess! #homeschoolactivities #homeschoolmom #homeschoolcurriculum https://liketk.it/6dpfI
