As the parent volunteer in charge of organizing my younger daughter’s 1st grade class Halloween party, I set out to find a fun but not too crazy game that her classmates would enjoy. I did a search for Halloween Bingo games and came across this awesome family-friendly site!
You can choose from a variety of bingo card grid sizes (i.e., 3×3, 4×4, 5×5), and customize your cards with various holidays and themes, picture and/or word spaces, and even label them with your own creative custom titles! I thought BOOGO would be the perfect title for a scary-good Bingo game, complete with yummy candy corn game pieces!
While I was there, I created a design-your-own Chore Chart for each of my daughters as well, and I have to say they have truly de-stressed our morning routine! No more yelling “Did you do this, do you have that?!” as I make breakfast and pack lunches in the morning – the girls both have their own “Little Miss Helpful” Chore Charts to remind them, and they happily check off each item on their own each day!
There are all sorts of other awards, coupons, cards, and activities available on the site, so be sure to swing by for some creative family fun during the upcoming holiday season and beyond!
I’ve been eating bananas my whole life, as well as feeding them to my kids for the past 10 years, and I have never heard of opening a banana like this!
Actually, I feel a little silly that, at my age, I still struggle with opening bananas – often trying to bend and break it at the base of the stem or digging at the peel near the stem, bruising the fruit inside (which, of course, then usually wastes the top half of it, since my kids want nothing to do with a “banana bruise”… and, quite honestly, neither does their mom… since I’m baring all of my banana-peeling issues here anyway!), before grabbing a knife and cutting into the peel.
I look forward to giving this “Monkey Method” a try bright and early at breakfast tomorrow! Oh, the things you can find on YouTube!

Well, it is officially Back to School week at our house! Gone are the days of sleeping in late and going with the flow of wherever our day may take us – at least until Winter break!
If the thought of new teachers and getting back into the school-year routine has you &/or your kids feeling a bit frazzled, check out these helpful tips for reducing everyone’s school-year stress!
Summer vacation is winding down, and the kids go back to school next week. I can hardly believe how fast those summer months flew by this year! So much Summer Fun!
As we shift our focus towards Back-To-School, here are some creative crafts ideas and activities to get the whole family excited about the new school year!
A friend of mine gave me this Good Season’s salad recipe a few years ago after she served it at a party we attended where it was a huge hit. It’s been a summer crowd-favorite at many-a backyard party with us ever since.
It’s crunchy and sweet, but a little zesty – and the sunflower seeds give it a really nice twist!
The summertime family road trip is a much revered annual tradition for many families.
As excited as we get at the ideal traditional image of the entire family loaded into the car with ear-to-ear smiles on, beaming with the joyful anticipation of their upcoming journey and its can’t-wait-to-get-there destination, we all know how challenging the real-life experience can be – even for the most Clark Griswold-ish of us!
Looking for ways to keep your kids busy on the road? Here are a few car ride games to help occupy your travel companions’ time:
