Music has always been a constant in our house. I like singing and silly dancing with the girls, so this seemed like a natural theme for us. When my friend (who teaches music classes for kids) offered to let us borrow some instruments, I started to get super excited about it. This theme had a … More Music Week
I’m a huge fan of all things sensory, especially for littles. These sensory bags are an easy way for babies to participate in our Theme Weeks and are easy to throw in a diaper bag too.

They will be motivated to look at the colorful pictures and strengthening their core at the same time. After … More Circle of Books – A Tummy Time Activity
