Sometimes sleep is elusive. And when it is, it wreaks havoc. It doesn’t matter who in the family is struggling to sleep; everyone seems to feel the effects. This stuff has been in my mom arsenal for years. It is incredibly effective and non-habit-forming; it simply helps you fall asleep with no ill effects. Whether it’s mental stress at bedtime, general restlessness or occasional sleeplessness, this will help you get some sleep. Hylands.com

Pepper Pong

We love all kinds of games as a family and gave Pepper Pong a recent try. Pepper Pong is a portable game that blends the best of pickleball with indoor table tennis. It was easy to learn, and the soft balls make the game itself remarkably quiet—though we got louder with laughter as we enjoyed playing. It can be played on any flat-ish surface. We even traveled with it, as it packs up so easily. It’s won us over! PepperPong.com

Praying the Scriptures for Your Children

If you’re like me, you need some tracks to run on to help you focus from time to time. This book by Jodie Berndt and Audrey Roloff helped me focus and find my words when I knew I wanted the best for my children. Each chapter has timeless encouragement as well as prayer ideas to help me pray more specifically for my children regarding their faith, character, safety, relationships, future and more. Praying for them helps me worry less, so everyone benefits! Amazon.com

Hartter Photography

In preparation for my new role at KC Parent, I needed some fresh headshots. On a rainy summer day, I met Taylor with Hartter Photography, and we got to work in her home studio. She proved incredibly gracious, insightful and accommodating. I was amazed at all she had to offer regarding props and wished for a moment that my kiddos were again tiny enough to be wrapped up for a newborn session! A delightful experience with great pictures, too! HartterPhotography.com

Container Workshops

My mom is known for her green thumb, and yet I effortlessly kill plants. That’s not to say I don’t long to be a good plant mom. Enter Family Tree Nursery’s container workshops. I love these because I can ask the experts what kinds of things will thrive in my home culture based on the things I have kept alive. They offer up their insight and expertise and help me create a masterpiece to enjoy! FamilyTreeNursery.com
