I love popsicles just as much as my kids. They would eat popsicles every day if I let them, but then they go bouncing off the walls because most of them are filled with dyes and sugar. Making your own at home is healthier because you can control what goes into them, and (in my […]
My kids are really into pirates, fairies, and Peter Pan these days and so I promised them I would surprise them with a fun after school snack one day soon. They still don’t know that I’ve been secretly working on this fun {and tasty} Pirate Munch Party mix for them. I think it will totally […]
Hi, it’s Carlyn from East Valley Mom Guide, filling in for Wendy today. I just wanted to share a lunch I made for my boys inspired by Disney’s Frozen. The movie just came out on DVD and Blu-ray, so my boys and I will be watching it until we have the whole thing memorized. I’m […]
So, it’s your happy happy happy birthday! There is only one party for you….a Duck Dynasty Birthday Party. I love themed parties, but I don’t enjoy the price tag of buying a ton of logo’d items for a 2-3 party. It’s just not budget friendly. However, if you are a Duck Dynasty fan there are some […]

School starts next week…my baby is heading to pre-K a couple days a week and my oldest is going into 4th grade. Where has time gone? I’m kind of picky when it comes to the kids school lunches. I think they need to be healthy for learning…no junk, no sweets…there is a time and place […]

I’m always searching for creative ways to teach my children Bible stories. My kids learn better with hands-on activities while we are talking and then being able to visualize what we are talking about. I first heard about Empty Tomb Rolls several years ago and I know they are all over the web now, but I’ve got […]
Leprechauns! Love ‘em or hate ‘em? They always show up at our house sometime before we wake up on March 17th. The leprechauns cause all sorts of mischief at our house. This year the kids and I decided we would set out some leprechaun bait and try to catch them. Do they come to your […]
I think I have created a monster! Making individual serving cakes in a coffee mug with a cake mix in the microwave is nothing new. However, many of the recipes call for regular cake mix plus the addition of angel food cake mix (for the egg), put it the microwave on 50% power for a […]
I’m always trying to figure out how to get healthy foods into my kids, but I have to stay on my toes or they get bored. Unfortunately, many of the Pina Colada Fruit Dips call for instant coconut pudding, which is not healthy at all. I knew I could make a similar tasting dip without […]
