Welcome to Keep It Simple, Schlossers (KISS)!
I'm Gina, an industrial engineer turned temporary stay-at-home mom. Industrial engineers manage processes. We like things simple, efficient. If you've spent any time with me personally, then you know this is in my blood and I do look forward to the day when I return to it professionally. In the meantime, I get to explore the world with my two daughters. And I am trying to make the most of this time while I have it...however long that may be.
I'm not big on flashcards or meeting specific educational milestones. I'd rather my girls spend these early years learning through exploration and unstructured play. It's more fun...for all of us! I've created a toddler theme for each week of the year. A theme that will inspire our book choices, our activities & art projects, and maybe even an outing. The goal is to use the things we have at home (or can borrow from the library) and encourage toy rotation. I will try to provide sources for some of the items I use, but this blog isn't meant to sell things. Remember, keep it simple.
What I am NOT:
- An expert on early childhood education
- An expert on parenting
- An expert on fun (but admittedly, I try!)
I've started this blog so that we can idea share and help each other out. You can expect short posts with simple ideas. We're busy parents...that's all we have time for. But please do comment on the posts with your suggestions and ideas. I'll update the posts as needed. Oh, and please be nice to one another. No meanies allowed.
