One Secret to a Working Mom Success: Make Family Events More Enjoyable With Friends

Better Together: Why Inviting Another Family Makes Activities More Fun #FamilyFun Sometimes family activities can feel like another item on the to-do list. However, doing those activities with another family makes them more fun! Whether it’s a trip to an amusement park , a visit to the local pool , or trip to a pumpkin patch , including another family can multiply the fun in amazing ways. One of my favorite moms to collaborate with is my friend, Ayana Ledford who's pictured above with her daughter Sahar. We have done all of the things listed as seemingly random examples above and here is how including her and her daughter (and sometimes her son too) has made the events more fun. On the date above, Ayana almost left the venue because parking was a nightmare. That said, she hung in there and we would up having a great time!

The Strider Cup, A Great Activity for Toddlers and Preschoolers

My little Strider Racer 


Last year, I was honored to collaborate with Strider Bikes. They make balance bikes for kids and also conduct a race. The race was one of the coolest events that I've experienced. It was the first competitive event for my son and he loved it, even if he was lucky just to receive a participation medal! (Click here for more information about our experience.)

The race was a fun, family event. And although, I haven't been asked to collaborate with Strider this year, at least not yet, I wanted to share a link to the event so that you can register your kids and partake in the fun. I promise you, you and your racer will enjoy it. And the rest of the family will get to cheer for your little one. The link below has the calendar of races, the first one is on April 6th.

Enjoy!!!
