@hlcorn3 Hi I’m just butting in here as another parent with CPTSD who has been in therapy for 20 years… it can be so isolating so I always get a little overeager when I spot other people with similar experiences 👋

@f1anchett0 Serenity now, insanity later 😵‍💫 We used these too.

@momof2napril Yes, she loves the little details. We are in a big owl phase lately, so there’s another reason for us to check out Tree!

@momof2napril Hello fellow book lover with a similar age daughter! We have Moon, but now I’m inspired to get Tree! JB’s The Mitten and Gingerbread Baby were big hits last winter and I’m excited to pull them out again.

@harrymuniz Love April Pulley Sayre’s books! I got Bloom Boom in the spring and we have Full of Fall checked out from the library now. Your daughter would probably enjoy Shelley Rotner’s Hello Seasons photo books too: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/series/EKN/hello-seasons Those are some of...

@onlyjesus316 Echoing everyone else on looking into the ear plugs! I love my Loop ones. I have PTSD from how crappy my childhood was, and this work is SO hard. I sometimes feel like I have twins, because I am trying to (re)raise myself alongside raising my daughter. It’s grueling and exhausting...

@aurelia7 Lola Goes to School, Anna McQuinn

@preciousqueen Sorry for the late reply— I didn’t see this earlier! They do not have tabs, the sides are all fabric/elastic and can be torn open for ease of changing if needed!

@ben4ever We use these pull ups & diapers: https://healthybaby.com/products/our-pull-up-style-diaper-1-pack Carbon neutral production, paper packaging, and solid performance.

@cadie Also chiming in to say how much we love our Yoto mini! We gave it to our toddler last year for Christmas and we all truly love it. If you sign up for Target Circle, you can use the 25% off one toy coupon on it! That’s what I did last year and it felt like a good deal.

@binfoco Former public school teacher here. I’m not understanding why any food is being served in class outside of daily snack (for preK) or lunch provided by the school system if the kids don’t bring home lunch. There are so many ways to celebrate special occasions other than food. With how...

@lpadr009 This sounds AMAZING!

@charles1014 In a Reggio Emilia inspired learning environment, the invitations to play are called “provocations.” You might enjoy reading more about Reggio schools & their philosophy. I found this blog post from a Reggio-inspired teacher during a quick search...

@nikki21 Aw, congrats! I saw both of those on her shop site recently and they are so cute! (Was there to grab a LWH enamel pin for my toddler’s stocking!)

@dwstamps I’m not the OP, but I have also used and liked both of those brands. I currently have the Ilia super serum skin tint, concealer, gel eyeliner, and the balmy tint lip color. I like and would recommend them all! I’d like to try out their eye shadow palette too, but I still have a...

@spiritofdiscernment Agreed! We love playing in the cold too, we have base layers and good gear and all that jazz. This post is pretty specifically about the dangerous cold— in Chicago the NWS has issued a wind chill warning, and we will not be going out to play when the temperature currently is...

@onlyjesus316 Something I’ve started working on when my daughter is being really demanding during play is saying “that’s what you want me to do. Right now, I’m choosing to do it differently. It’s ok for people to want different things.” And then I’ve been modeling that with toys at times when...

@kdubpenny Yes! I think Little Planet & BB are perfect for a registry, especially because they’re easily available at places many people like to shop anyways, like Target and Amazon. They are slightly more expensive than standard fare at those stores, but still reasonable and are made with...
