“Mommy, When are You Going to Die?” & Other Conversations with My Preschooler

November 12, 2015 By Melanie Edwards Leave a Comment

No More Naps: Letting Go of Nap Time for Preschooler

Earlier this week I talked about how my baby boy and I spend our afternoons after he gets home from pre-Kindergarten and shared a free printable preschool daily routine chart! I mentioned that he now has quiet time since he has outgrown his daily nap. This is something I’m pretty bummed about, but in the […]

Free Printable Preschool Daily Routine Chart

It’s hard to believe, but my baby boy started pre-Kindergarten this school year! He’s been in preschool before, but this year, he’s officially in pre-Kindergarten and learning all those necessary skills to get him ready for Kindergarten next year.

How to Make a Paper Bag Treasure Chest

Sometimes in parenting, you need a little help to motivate your kids or reward them for good behavior. This is especially true for younger children like my four-year-old son. Something that seems to work in his preschool class is their treasure box. Every Friday, kids who had good behavior throughout the week are able to […]

June 7, 2015 By Melanie Edwards Leave a Comment

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Stride Rite. All opinions are 100% mine. It seems like we’re constantly buying shoes for the kids, especially baby boy since he’s growing at a faster rate than his older sister. He loves to run and plays hard, so we tend to keep a […]
