Real life. Real Women. Real talk
We all have a list of things we want to do before we die. Some big goals (visiting every continent) and some small goals (learning to ride a bike) make up a list that ensures we’ve led a life well lived. Well here’s one more that I think every woman should have on her bucket list: every woman should take a trip by herself. It’s as much about learning more about who you are as it is having a new adventure. READ MORE »
Texas has gone from 80s, to rain to now the 30s all in just this week. While we stay out of the cold, here’s a great way to finish our Science Club Series on weather before we move into some experiments on color. Each post will provide the scientific background, supply list and directions. These experiments don’t take a lot of time to set up, but is fascinating for the kids. So let’s get started – time for blue sky and rainbows.
I have created a simple downloadable printout of The Scientific Method that can be used for any of the Science Saturday Experiments on our blog. This can be especially great for older kids who can fill out their own Scientific Method.
Did you ever wonder why someone would start a blog? Or how much work really goes into it? This is not a subject I was intending to write about, but I’m hoping if I share my emotional reasons why I started blogging, that others may find a positive outlet in blogging as well. So here I am about to get very personal on why and how I started a blog with one of my best friends, Sara.
Spring is in the air and bunnies are everywhere. When it’s Springtime, you know there’s fuzzy cottontails, decorating and egg hunts coming up. Here are a few new ideas for spring crafts with the kiddos that will guarantee some fun, laughter and a hopping good time.
One thing about living in Texas, the weather is constantly changing from cold to hot and back – usually in the same day. With all the temperature changes, it’s a great time to continue with our next Science Club Series on weather. Each post will provide the scientific background, supply list and directions. This experiment is easy for kids and extremely fun to watch. So let’s get started – time to create a thunderstorm.
Spring is here, and slowly the weather is warming up. Flowers are starting to bloom all around Texas. It’s time to get the kids outside and enjoy the sunshine and nature. But while you’re outside, why not take advantage of the warmer weather and create beautiful wind chimes to hang from your trees. These quiet chimes are the perfect way to enjoy the vibrant colors of flowers in the sunlight.READ MORE »
This is not a post that I had planned on writing. But when inspiration strikes, you have to follow where it takes you. My goal for today’s post is to share a personal triumph and hope that someone out there will feel motivated to go out and learn something new. It’s time to do the things that you think you cannot do.READ MORE »
Before we were Crown & Chaos, we thought about being Vodka & Sweatpants for a hot second. It’s been a while, but we used to solely drink Vodka. It’s still a favorite, so we were super excited to try new Ving Vodka. It’s an organic vodka handmade in California that’s made in small batches. It’s also a gluten-histamine-sulfite-sugar-free vodka that by some ancient magic does not leave you with a headache in the morning.
Since spring is upon us and rain is still in the forecast, we will continue our Science Club Series on weather. Each post will provide the scientific background, supply list and directions. This experiment is something the kids can keep around to play afterwards. So let’s get started – time to create a tornado in a bottle.
It’s that time of year again – Teacher Appreciation Week is the time to show your kid’s teachers how wonderful they are. Personally, we love crafting so it’s the perfect opportunity to give them something handmade with love. Teachers always appreciate gifts made or bought by the kids themselves because it makes it more personal. Here are a few ideas you can try at home.
