The other night we had a family Pumpkin carving party. Well, mostly it was Joe and I cutting up pumpkins while the little ones looked on but Jude helped when possible and he absolutely loved it. He help clean out the pumpkin using the Pumpkin Masters scoop, he selected the Mummy Template and he traced…
Candy, Candy, Candy. That’s what I think of when someone says “trick-or-treat”. I hate passing out so much candy at Halloween but I also don’t want to be known as the house that passes out raisins (although my kids would love that!). Well, now I can omit candy and still be the cool house by…
Holiday’s are a great excuses to bring more learning into every day life. Since pumpkins are all the rage right now, I created a fun pumpkin math printable for preschool/kindergarten kids. I will admit my pumpkins look more like apples than pumpkins… just imagine they are orange. Enjoy the pumpkin counting fun!

October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month and the Allstate Foundation launched the Purple Purse campaign. The Purple Purse donates money to the YWCA for programs that support victims of…
Candy. Lots and lots of candy. That’s the best part of Halloween, according to my kids anyway. We currently have Hershey’s Halloween Candy overflowing from the candy bowl, so I decided to get a little creative without a lot of effort and make a Halloween Candy Brownie Pizza. Every Friday night, we have family movie…
