A little Valentine’s Day tea party was the perfect way to celebrate heart day with my little loves! With pretty pink and red linens, dreamy balloons overhead, and satin‑tied candles, the table felt festive and cozy. We enjoyed heart‑shaped strawberry scones, mini cupcakes, fresh berries and a delicious peach‑raspberry tea together.

I love designing my kids’ classroom valentine cards! This time - I went against my normal candy-free valentines, and did a “starburst” theme for Lauren’s classmates. You can download the printable sheet below to make your own!

As always, the christmas season went by WAY too fast, but we still managed accomplish (most of) our advent calendar activities! Eating christmas cookies, decorating the tree, making garland and christmas cards are a few of my favourites!

We always do a little Halloween party with friends - it’s a fun way to wear those cute costumes one more time, eat some treats and snacks, play some games and do a little craft. Happy Halloween!

The kids are going back to school — and this year was extra special celebrating the first day of KINDERGARTEN for Ethan, and Grade 3 for Lauren. We kicked off the morning with a fun breakfast featuring waffles, fruit, and cheerful table décor. Simple touches like striped napkins, crayon box shaped treat boxes, and matching pajamas made the morning of the first day feel extra special!

All of the details from Lauren’s Art Party - a creative art studio set up for her guests to make their own artistic creations, and a pretty picnic with all the ribbons, bows and treats!

high five for turning 5! We celebrated Ethan’s birthday with a backyard party with friends. The highlight was a bubble house full of balloons!

Easter is one of my favorite holidays, and this year I was so excited to put together baskets full of special goodies — including matching bunny jammies for the night before, heirloom Cuddle + Kind dolls, spring toys, chalk, games, and treats that made Easter morning feel fun and festive.

One of my absolute favorite traditions is hosting a little “Bunny Brunch” each Easter! For our 5th annual celebration, we kept the menu simple with cinnamon buns, muffins, fresh fruit, and eggs + toast. I loved using a yellow gingham tablecloth and a pretty tissue‑paper bow garland, and of course we never forgot our bunny ears to make the morning extra fun.

What’s not to love about rainbows, green smoothies and Lucky Charms?! We celebrated St. Patrick’s Day this year with a little breakfast party featuring a rainbow of balloons, green pancakes, green fruit skewers, and doughnuts with Lucky Charms sprinkled on top! We also made Leprechaun traps — Lauren brought one to school and Ethan built his own, making the holiday extra fun.

For Valentine’s Day this year, we celebrated with a cheerful ice cream party! I made a pink and white striped awning and a sign that said “We All Love Ice Cream,” added light pink balloons and heart‑lettered mylar balloons, then set out bowls of vanilla and strawberry ice cream, fresh berries, sauces, sprinkles, and cherries — plus little surprise balls hidden in cones for a playful twist!

This year’s classroom valentines are extra sparkly! I created free printable “You’re a Real Gem of a Friend!” cards, which pair perfectly with small crystals or acrylic gems. They’re easy to print at home or a print shop and make handing out Valentine’s Day cards extra fun for kids.

Christmas is in full swing and we kicked off the season with cozy pajamas, holiday cookies, and homemade ornaments! After baking and decorating gingerbread men and candy cane sugar cookies, we made simple cornstarch dough ornaments using star and snowflake cutters, added cute Christmas tattoo decals, and tied them with string — a fun festive afternoon for the kids.

I’m always surprised how quickly Halloween arrives after school starts! We hosted a little Halloween party with friends full of tasty treats, games, crafts, and all the silly fun that comes with the season. For decorations, I created a balloon display with peach, orange and white balloons, and set the table with fun ghost and BOO plates the kids loved.
