every mom wants to be an all-powerful wizard
Kids get to old for the traditional egg hunt before they want to give up having fun on Easter. And if course it’s before they want to give up getting candy! But there are fun things you can do with tweens and teens that are more than an egg hunt.
One year we made a texting scavenger hunt for our three teens/preteens. One of the best parts? The Easter Bunny didn’t have to get up early to hide eggs in the yard!
We all had a ball doing the hunt. I hope you do too!…
I love a good, happy chick flick! And my teen girls do too! Romantic comedies are our favorite. No tissues and tears for these girls. Teens have enough drama in their life already.

I enjoy the challenge of coming up with the perfect gift for that hard-to-buy-for person on my gift list. To me, the perfect gifts are items you wouldn’t have thought of for yourself, or ones that go beyond the basic we often purchase for ourselves. To my surprise, one of my most viewed Pinterest boards is gifts for tween and teen girls. That’s who I find it the easiest to shop for! I don’t need a gift guide for that myself. So that’s a good time to write one!
