Name Toothbrush Craft

February is National Children’s Dental Health Month. We are also headed to the dentist in a week for so. To celebrate both of those things, we have been focused on dental related crafts and activities. Today, I want to share an easy art project that you can use to help start a conversation about dental health with your little one!

Materials Used

  • Scissors
  • Glue
  • Construction Paper
  • Something to write with

The prep work for this craft is really easy! I just cut a long rectangle, a toothpaste like shape, and a short rectangle out of construction paper. I took the short rectangle and cut little slits in it so that it would look like the bristles of a toothbrush. If your child is comfortable using scissors, let them do the cutting!

After that was all ready, I had my daughter write her name on the long rectangle.

Next, she glued her toothbrush to a piece of construction paper.

That is it! This craft is super easy!

Materials Used

Tissue Paper

Glue

Scissors

Construction Paper

The prep work for this art project is super easy. I simply cut out a heart from construction paper! If your child uses scissors well, you can draw the heart and let them do the cutting! After that, I handed my daughter the tissue paper and had her rip it up.

Once all the paper was ripped up, I helped my daughter cover the heart in glue so that she could glue the tissue paper onto the heart.

This craft is super simple, but we had a lot of fun with it!

We Tried Vita Ginseng Kids

It can be hard to narrow down which vitamins or supplements you should buy for your children. When I am considering what to give my daughter, I am looking for great health benefits, including immune support and an increase in memory function. There are many different types of supplements available, but today I want to share our experience with VITA Ginseng Kids.

**This is a sponsored post through Tomoson. All opinions are ours. We are not medical professions and this is not medical advice. Please consult a doctor before starting any kind of supplement or vitamin.**

 I grew up with a Korean Step-Grandfather, so I was already well aware of the health benefits of ginseng.  For children who sometimes struggle to maintain a balanced diet, supplementing with VITA Ginseng Kids is an easy way to incorporate extra nutrients into their daily lives. It can be easily mixed into a favorite drink or soft food!  

The first thing I noticed about the package of VITA Ginseng Kids was how cute the packaging was! It features little monsters. Once we opened up a packet, both my daughter and I took a smell to see if we could tell how it would taste. It smelled really good!

Next, we opened it up and stirred it into a glass of milk. My daughter really enjoyed it. I took a taste as well, and it wasn’t bad! The easy packets make it convenient to take on the go! At $33 for 30 packets, it is reasonably priced and it has great reviews on Amazon!

I am so happy I found a new way to increase the nutrition my newly four year old gets every day!

What I’ve Learned From My Time As A Stay At Home Mom

If you ask people what they think about stay-at-home moms, you will likely get a lot of different opinions.  Not all of those opinions will be positive. I am a mom with a disability that prevents me from working full time, so working mom life was  likely never in the cards for me, but I fully embrace the time I get at home with my little one. There are so many advantages to staying at home if it is possible for your family but being a stay-at-home parent is not without sacrifices. There are some things I wish I knew before starting my stay-at-home mom journey.

The first I’ve learned is that even though I don’t have a traditional job, my days are rarely easy. I have a degree in early childhood education and thought that after managing a whole classroom of children, taking care of one child would be a breeze. I couldn’t have been more wrong. Fulfilling every need of a tiny human from 5:30AM until 7:30PM is significantly more difficult than teaching a classroom of preschool aged children. When I worked part time at a preschool, I was able to help children learn and keep them safe, but those are not the most difficult part of the days. At home, I find that the additional responsibilities such as dishes, laundry, and errands tend to take over the day and it takes skill and practice to balance fun time and house work.

The next thing I learned is that stay-at-home mom life is full of inconsistencies. One day, we go to the park, read a dozen books, and practice math skills. The next day, we might eat cold pizza for breakfast and watch way too much YouTube. Consistency is important for young children, so I really do try to stick to a daily schedule, but each day is a new adventure.

The last thing I want to share is that even though being a stay-at-home mom was the best, and really only, decision for my family, it still took a while for me to make peace with it. I occasionally still feel envious that my husband gets to go out into the world each day. I love my child fiercely, but some days I do not love being at home all day and that’s okay. After all, I don’t think there is a person out there who loves every single second of their life.

A lot of people will say that staying at home with your children is the ultimate privilege, and in some ways, it is, but there are also a lot of challenges as well! I’d love to hear from my fellow stay-at-home moms out there! What is your favorite part of being a SAHM? What is the most challenging part for you?
