Hello! My name is Vicki and I am a stay at home mother of a beautiful young daughter and a former teacher. I am also an avid bookworm and a crafter. I started this blog to share my love of books, my love of learning and teaching and my belief that learning opportunities are everywhere!

The best way to get a child to enjoy reading is to share the experience with them! Read to your children whenever you can and talk to them about the book. There are many ways that you can make books come alive for kids and I hope that the posts on this blog help you to discover new ways to integrate books into your child’s life in fun and innovative ways!

You don’t have to be the perfect mom to give your children all kinds of learning opportunities!

From talking to them in the grocery store to making a craft together based on a favorite book, there are millions of ways to teach your kids while building precious memories. I hope that other moms/parents/caretakers/teachers will find the ideas on this site to be helpful and an inspiration for their own teaching ideas. I also hope parents will find a place to de-stress and find some tips to help them in their day to day lives. Come in and join me!
