I adored my Easter basket growing up, which my grandmother had dressed up for me by attaching plastic flowers to it. Now, with all the gorgeous silk floral vines available in craft stores, it’s easier than ever! I made two baskets for my own little girls (now bigger), and they love them just as much.

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!

aster scavenger hunt for teenagers, tweens, older kids and even adults. Indoor or outside. Ideas for using smartphone texts and photos, riddles, clues, and tasks.

We all had a ball doing the hunt. I hope you do too!…

Feelings of Failure as Super Mom and my Daughter’s Easter Tree

Easter tree close 400 x 536Can’t stand to look at Pinterest because you feel like such a failure as Super Mom? You are not alone! I am constantly plagued by the fear that I am not doing enough with my kids. And that’s coming from someone who for a while sold craft ideas to Family Fun Magazine. Later, when I hit a slump I couldn’t even stand to look at the magazine because it reminded me of all the great activities I should be doing with my kids.

I have been chatting with some other super moms recently and have found that I’m not the only one who feels this way.

We talk about and publicly post our successes.

We only see our own failures!…
