CAUGHT OUR EYE
Product - Mini Moche Em + West Tee Made in Canada, Mini Mioche produces organic eco-friendly clothing for young kids. I love the colours and simple designs coupled with wonderfully soft jersey fabric. Now mom can enjoy Mini Mioche, sporting the em + west hoodie or the em + west tee. With so many different colours in the Tee, I can see this becoming a new wardrobe staple.

On Our Bookshelf- The Magnificent Tree Pop's ideas are big and brave, and Bonny's ideas are simple and clever. In the Magnificent Tree, they work on an idea to create something that will make the birds want to stay, a magnificent tree. Just like kids and adults, they come up with different ideas and sometimes the simple ones do the trick. A lovely illustrated book about differences and creative thinking. This story just makes me smile.

The Gift of Difficult Mothers

Eight years ago, I started this space in hopes of helping other women become the best mothers they could be. We teach what we need to learn, right?
 
You see, I've never been close to my mother. My reasons are personal, and out of respect for my mother, I won't share specifics here other than to say our relationship always was and continues to be - difficult.

CAUGHT OUR EYE
Product - Downy Unstoppables I'm not a big fan of adding 'extras' into my laundry but when it comes to keeping towels smelling fresher for longer than a day Downy Unstopables seem to do the trick. These little balls of fragrance add a boost of freshness in your wash. Available in Fresh, Lush, Shimmer, and Spring.

ON OUR BOOKSHELF
On Our Bookshelf- The Art of Clean Up The wordless picture books The Art of Clean Up by Swiss artist Ursus Wehrli draws you in with every flip of the page. Each spread consists of one page showing modern life, such as kids in a school yard or stars in the sky, while the other page illustrates Wehrli's organized version of the scene. The idea is imaginative with wisps of humour.

CAUGHT OUR EYE
Product - TVO Kids' Tooth Time App Getting young kids to brush their teeth, all of their teeth, for the 2-minutes most dentists recommend, can prove challenging. In the free Tooth Time app from TVO Kids, Cavity Jane and Pearly White encourage kids to brush along to their song. When they're done they are rewarded with stickers for their chart and completing brushing tasks unlocks new stickers.

On Our Bookshelf- Amazing ABC Even little LEGO fans will love the early concept book Amazing ABC. Like most ABC books, each page features a large version of the letter and includes an image and word to illustrate that letter. The great part is that each large letter and the image are all created from LEGO pieces. This is a great book for learning the alphabet and perhaps inspiring some creative LEGO building.
