Parenting is a marathon, not a sprint. 🩵

As parents, we’re constantly researching, planning, and putting our needs aside to help our kids thrive. But sometimes the most important thing on the to-do list isn’t another toy, activity, or appointment—it’s making time for yourself.

Because you can’t pour from an empty cup! Healthy families need parents to feel supported too.

What’s your go-to easy parents’ night out this summer? Drop your ideas below! ā¬‡ļø

Biting is a normal part of toddlerhood for many families, but for some people (us included) it becomes a point of stress when it is happening more frequently than it should!

Toddlers often bite as a way of communicating before they have the words to help but another cause of biting is far less talked about, and that’s where this hack comes in!

Some kids need extra input to feel regulated and the mouth is often a high value spot for this kind of sensory seeking. These kids may bite themselves or others, mouth toys far beyond age appropriate or prefer chewy, high flavored foods. Using an electric toothbrush can be a great way to get this input in a healthy and constructive way. Give it a try and let me know how your little likes it!

Also, if you think a speech delay may be a part of your kiddos biting, we have loved working with to help build vocabulary and prevent delays!!

April is OT month and I can’t pass up the opportunity to celebrate the profession I love so much! We put the FUN in FUNction and objectively speaking I think we’re one of the best jobs out there.

Thank you for giving me the opportunity to practice what I love here in Central TX! If you have any questions about what OT does or how we could help your family, the inbox is open! šŸ’Œ

Even if you and your mom friends don’t share the same profession, the value of low stress quality time with friends who love you AND your kids cannot be understated!

Vacations don’t need to be flashy and expensive. They can be as simple as a weekend stay at a friend’s house, a backyard campout or a trip to the zoo! Our kids want meaningful time with us more than anything else, trust us!

What staycations do you have planned this summer?
