We are having such a different week before school starts than I had in mind. I imagined we’d be packing in lots of fun activities but mostly we’ve played at home with friends in our neighborhood. Which actually seems like what we all need, play, play, play. While Nora made her cupcakes we had a fun group of boys playing basketball which was apparently a break from bike riding. #playmatters #sensoryplay #letthemplay August 21, 2019
As fall is approaching I’m looking forward to routines and gathering families together to create and play. I’m teaching at @themothershipclt on Wednesday and Fridays and on Thursdays I will be at Myers Park Baptist Church.

Ooblek, so messy but quite easy to clean up actually! Once dried it just sweeps up. I love ooblek because there are so many ways to extend play. First we made the ooblek and mixed together, then I added the silicone muffin cups and was able to make her lovely cupcakes again after adding flowers. The finale of course, glitter sprinkles. By waiting to add each element you can really extend your child’s play and work on many skills. #sensoryplay #finemotorskills #charlottenckids #charlottencmom #queencity #toddleractivities #oobleck #traderjoesflowerslastforever August 10, 2019

I had a few minutes to set up some nature play for N this morning. We have some errands to run and I like to fill her bucket with play before doing so. It doesn’t always happen, but great when we can! Do you have any good strategies for errands with toddlers? Ufdah! Happy Thursday! #toddlerplay #toddleractivities #sensoryplay #sensoryplayideas August 01, 2019

A little morning art before the beach with model magic, markers and some texture. Perfect beach colors, eh? 🏖 July 25, 2019
