In most cases when the school calls for a SNOW DAY, that just means an extra day for the kids to do some sledding, snowboarding and/ or skiing. But not this time around. This time we are strongly advised not to leave the house. Not to expose our skin to these brutal negative temperatures and FOR TWO STRAIGHT DAYS! #goodtimes
So what do we do with kids who have the energy of a hurricane?
I am very excited to share this guest post by a local Author & Photographer. Enjoy!

As a child I always wanted to explore the world. My dad traveled with his brother for work and I always looked forward to his pictures and stories. But when pictures and stories were not enough, I always had books. I was curious about nature, earth, explorations and questioned everything. What, how, why?
But it wasn’t until I was in 7th grade that I learned about National Geographic and Kids Almanac. I was immediately drawn to them. Books like this inspired me to explore the world, seek adventures and answered a gazillion of my silly or not so silly questions.
Did you know that your entire inner ear can fit inside the tip of your pinkie?
Did you know that a light, fluffy cumulus cloud typically weighs about 216, 000 pounds?
Where did the summer break go?! Wasn’t it just yesterday that I was blogging about a list of things you could do this summer?! 🙄
But back to school it is and that has me thinking about books!
From picture books to books that focus on sharing, kindness, courage, relationships and more. Here are my favorite children’s books. These must reads belong in every kid’s library. Enjoy.
Ahoy mateys!
I am always looking for new and creative ways to bring hands on play to my kids. It is no secret that all kids want to do these days is play on their tablets or watch television. But there is so much more to childhood than that!

I am not an avid reader by any means but I do enjoy an occasional book. I also join a wonderful group of ladies every month or so for what we call a “book club.” Mainly they read books and I come for the wine 🍷. Actually, most of us really come for the wine. 😍
I am sharing a few of my favorites with you. I think if paired with a bottle of wine 😁 or a gift card, these would make great gifts as well! 🎁
