Just because my 4-year-old is out of school, doesn’t mean that I can’t incorporate some fun summer learning activities for her. We are deep into the middle of the summer and we have been doing all the summer things. From summer camps to swimming to playing at parks to visiting the zoo. And even going on a family vacation. We have been having a blast this summer because that is what summer is about. But even with it being summer, I still think it’s important that my daughter is still learning so that by the time the school year rolls…

With Spring here, I started looking into some extracurricular activities that are great for 4-year-old girls. When I was a kid, I loved playing sports and doing activities outside of school. So naturally, I want to get my child involved in some activities in the hopes that she will also develop a love for sports as well. Last year when my daughter was 3, we decided to enroll in soccer lessons to see if she would like it. And she absolutely loved it! In fact, she has been asking lately when can she go back to her soccer lessons. So…

As my daughter has gotten more adjusted to preschool, I have started incorporating more learning activities at home that are great for 4-year-olds. One of the things that I love about my daughter’s preschool is that they utilize a curriculum with the kids. If you all remember my post where I discussed what to look for in a preschool, then you may recall that one of those things that I look for is a curriculum-based preschool. That is one of the biggest differences you will find between a daycare and a preschool and that is whether they follow an educational…

Some of you may recall my 4-year-old’s hair during her birthday last year, but if you don’t, she got her hair braided for the first time at a hair salon. This was a big deal because as I said, this was her very first time going to a hair shop to get her hair braided. For the past 4 years, I have been doing and taking care of her hair. Last year, I even shared her curly routine and how I manage her hair because she has a lot of it. But one of the things that I am not…

Even though Christmas is already over, I still wanted to share what I got my 4-year-old daughter for Christmas. This post was supposed to go out before Christmas but before I knew it, Christmas was already here and I had missed getting it out in time. I truly apologize for that because that was not my intention at all. I debated on whether I should still go forward with this post because I doubt that anyone is looking for gifts after Christmas. And I ultimately decided that I still wanted to share. Yes, Christmas is over, but the things that…

It has been a couple of months since we moved into our new home which means it has been a couple of months of helping my 4-year-old settle into our new home. And as expected there was an adjustment period. The only home that my daughter has known is the townhouse that we lived in for the past 3 years. So I’m sure the news of moving probably brought up a mixture of feelings. When we were first going out and looking at homes, my daughter expressed excitement. She thought some of the homes were cool because they had a…

Since my daughter has been in preschool going on 2 months now, I feel like it is time to share our preschool must-haves for 3-year-olds. I know some of you are probably thinking but isn’t your daughter 4 now? Yes, she is. But if you have been keeping up with me on here, then you would know that she started preschool when she was still 3. My daughter has a birthday that is considered late for most school districts. So even though she is 4, she is currently enrolled in a preschool class for 3-year-olds based on her birthday. Our…

If you have been keeping up with me on Instagram, then you know that my daughter just recently had a birthday and we officially have a 4-year-old! It’s crazy to think that I have a 4-year-old now. And that I have been a mom for 4 years. They say that time flies with kids and that is absolutely the truth. Even now, it is hard to remember the baby version of my oldest daughter because we have become so accustomed to this version of her. The one that is always talking, asking questions, and full of so much energy and…

If you all have been keeping up with me on Instagram, then you know my 3-year-old experienced her first day of preschool! And she has been doing great ever since! She has truly been loving her preschool and looks forward to going every day. I’m so glad that I made the decision to enroll her in a preschool so that she can get a headstart for Pre-K and Kindergarten. She is around other kids her age, learning the letters of the alphabet, and getting used to a school-like structure. If you have been keeping up with my blog, then you…
