Okay, if you’re juggling hockey practice, dance practice, track days, and random mid-week play dates like we are, you know the chaos of weeknight dinners.

Okay, real talk. When I pulled out the supplies for this little yarn chick craft, my three tiny tornadoes went wild.

I like to buy whatever steak is on sale, tuck it in the freezer, and forget about it until I need a dinner win.

Every spring I tell myself we are going to be outside all day and the kids will magically stay busy. Then it rains.

I’m not even kidding… this sun craft for preschoolers and toddlers is one of those toddler crafts that looks adorable, takes barely any prep, and actually keeps little hands busy for more than two minutes.

I run into this every Valentine’s season. The kids want to make Valentine cards special for Mom or Dad, and I want it to be easy enough that kids can feel accomplished when making this craft.

I hit this same wall every spring, and it never fails.

Back-to-school season always hits me like a ton of bricks.

When the weather gets hot, the last thing I want to do is crank up the oven or hover over a sizzling stovetop. The kitchen turns into a sauna, and honestly, no one has time for that, especially not in the middle of summer.

When my twins were little, we had this ever-growing bucket of old, broken crayons, those stubby little pieces that were too short for their small hands to grip.
