Coronacation Resources For Staying Busy
If you’re like us, you’re trapped in the house with at least one small child who needs to be homeschooled and entertained for the next several weeks. I am working from home with FIVE small kids and have been desperately trying to find things for them to do in addition to the work the school sent home! I asked on my instagram @littlesouthernwife for suggestions for what you’re doing with your kids (and a few things for adults to do to keep our sanity) and I have come up with the following list of suggestions: YOUTUBE Science Mom: This channel is giving us life right now!

Owlet Baby Monitor Gives This Mama Peace of Mind
When you’re a brand new mom, you’re taught to worry about your baby when they sleep. Well, guess what? That worry never goes away! Even when you’re a 5-time mom like me, you still worry! For decades, parents have used baby monitors for peace of mind when the baby is out of view. When you think of a baby monitor, you often think of a walkie-talkie shaped device that often-times now has a video screen to see the baby. With a camera set up in the baby’s room, you are able to see and hear the baby which makes for a much better night’s sleep for parents. A video monitor…
