Does your pregnant belly itch? If so, you are not alone! Learn more about why your belly itches and what you can do about it to make it less irritating.
Congratulations on your pregnancy! It is an exciting, nerve-wracking time, and with it comes a lot of body changes. Your body is changing, expanding, and growing faster than it ever has. It takes a lot of internal coordination to grow a baby, and your body is doing its best! But sometimes even its best leaves you feeling a sense of discomfort.
For many women, one of the biggest sources of pregnancy discomfort is the belly itching. Your skin may itch in general, but your ever-expanding belly usually takes the brunt of it. So, why does it happen?
Whether your kids are home for the summer or on an extended break (we are home now for the Corona Virus), it is a great time to teach life skills they will need in the future.
I’m guilty of having my kids just do the “easy chores”. But they are a little older now and ready to learn a few more tasks that they will need in their future.
When you are stuck at home with little ones, whether it is for snow day or sickness it is hard to keep the kids occupied. And usually it isn’t the time to head to the store.
I gathered lots of ideas for playing that use items you may have around the house.
2. Make a Masking Tape City – Your kids can use cars, trucks, people and animals and have a whole town. Run masking tape or painters tape on your floors and carpet to make roads and parking lots for a whole town. We used this all the time for our twin boys.
3.Blowing Bubbles Inside – Blow your kids mind with the ability to blow bubbles inside. A mix of shampoo and water which are 2 ingredients we always have make this something you can do right now.
4. Easy Homemade Catapult – Use soft wadded up paper or some small toys and your kids will love watching things fly.
5. Toilet Paper Roll Rocket – Save up your paper rolls and let your kids have fun making rockets.
6. Spider Web Obstacle Course – Kids can pretend they are trapped or find ways to get around without touching the yarn. Do this under a table using the 4 table legs as the anchors of the yard.
7. Leak Proof Bag Experiment – Make your kids say “Wow” with this fun experiment. It’s amazing when the water doesn’t leak.
8. Straw Rocket – Anything that can shoot in the air in my house is fun. I like that this is will take them a little time to put together.
My kids love when I break out new activities. Some last for 5 minutes and some for an hour. Anything to help break up a day at home is good in my book.

Are thoughtful punishments that make your kids think twice possible? Is there a way to keep kids from repeating unacceptable behavior? After a lot of trial and error, I believe there is.
As a mom of three, I have had my fair share of times when punishments and consequences had to be doled out. While I firmly believe that children must be allowed to be children, some behaviors are unacceptable in our home, and when we are out in public.
When it comes to what kids call their parents, it is not a one size fits all things. Some parents will want to be called by different names, and we have compiled a list of the best nicknames for moms and dads to choose from.
Parents are so important to their children. Naturally, children see their parents as the most influential beings in their entire lives. While some moms and dads are cool with being called by their traditional handles, some want one they don’t want to have to share with every parent on the block.
Feeling your little one moving in your belly for the first time is magical. It momentarily can cause pregnant women to forget the swollen feet, sore back, heartburn and all the other uncomfortable parts of being with child. There are however, things you need to know about fetal movement when you are pregnant.
