Give your Toddler a Valuable Gift for Christmas this Year

December 5, 2016 · In: Motherhood

This post may contain affiliate links, which means I could make a commission (at no additional cost to you) on your purchases through my links. Read my full disclosure here.

I decided to give my toddlers the valuable gift of learning through ABC Mouse this year. This year I’m not buying any toys. The toys end up broken by week 2 and then my hard earned money is gone down the drain. Listen, ain’t no mama got time for that! I am not doing that this year. I will be getting my kids valuable, practical gifts they will actually use beyond Christmas Day.

Luckily my kids love learning. So I knew I wanted to get them some learning toys. My son gets super excited when he figures something out on his own. My baby girl is so inquisitive and loves to do puzzles. Her sister is creative, she likes to color and read. So naturally I wanted to get them something that would fit their interests, challenge them on their weaknesses and something they all could share. ABC Mouse was a perfect choice.

Now I’m a preschool teacher by day and I know what kids like and how they learn. They learn by playing and being interested in the activity they are doing. They maintain interest by being introduced to new things often and doing a mix of activities. So the idea of a learning toy that does the same thing day after day wasn’t what I wanted.

In my preschool classroom, the computer and the iPad is a big hit. Partly because kids love electronics but mainly because they want to get on and “play” ABC Mouse.

ABC Mouse is an award-winning early learning academy for kids ages 2-7. There are over 1,000 lessons and learning activities included. It’s a really comprehensive program that covers several areas of learning for a toddler. It has books, games, coloring pages, sight words, and math.

So I thought I would take a look at getting it for my kids at home. I went online and saw they were offering a 30-day free trial and decided to take advantage of that opportunity quick!

I let my 4-year-old play it and OMG let me tell you, he was hooked. He loved doing the puzzles and he loves doing the tracing words. He had a great time creating the avatar of himself for the classroom. And he got a giggle out of seeing his name listed as a student.

When you log in each child has their own personalized classroom complete with a teacher and a classroom pet. Chile now that’s fancy, huh?

I was like okay he really likes it, cool. But let me tell you when this mama fell in love with ABC Mouse. We were in the car on the way to the grocery store one day he asked to play ABC Mouse. I was like, you can play when we get home. My oldest son said mom why don’t you put it on your phone? I almost fell out of the driver seat. Why hadn’t I thought of this before? I put that ABC Mouse app on my phone and my son was engaged in it the entire visit to the grocery store.

He is usually asking for EVERYTHING the store sells and trying to get things off the shelf but not this day. He was focused on that app. Now to a busy mom like me, this was a stroke of genius.

So needless to say I went home and immediately upgraded my free membership with ABC Mouse. I took an old cell phone I had and added ABC Mouse to it and he is good to go. He can bring it when we have to go out and keep himself entertained while learning. It’s this mom’s dream.

My kids got an early Christmas gift and I’m glad about it. This gift won’t be a forgotten about after a day and it will not be broken after a few weeks. I’m happy, they’re happy and Christmas is going to be good.

First off, forget them people! Respectfully… Bu First off, forget them people! Respectfully…

But, I get it!  Most times we lack confidence worrying about other people’s opinion on this or that, but… 

- Stop trying to prove people wrong and prove yourself right! This is about you. You overcoming your fears. You finding the audacity to be great. You pursuing YOUR best life.

- Surround yourself with people that pour into you. Having the right support system is essential. It helps you ignore the noise around you. Join an online group, meetup with positive people local to you.

- Figure out the area you lack confidence in and build yourself up in that area.

- Feel the fear and do it anyway! You gotta just push through. Keep working. Keep showing up. Keep building.

Save this post and reference it when you feel self doubt creeping in.

It’s Monday and I’m prepared to have a product It’s Monday and I’m prepared to have a productive week! 

Here are a few things I do to make sure the business and the babies are setup for success:

- Write down everything I need to get done this week on Sunday. I literally do a brain dump of all the things.

- Then I prioritize these things from most important to least! …because let’s be real I wanna do everything but there’s only so much time in the day 😂 

- Then I schedule the first 3 things in my planner for Monday. I like to see it here and put in Google calendar.

- I plan, shop, and prep all my meals for the week on Sunday too. Because who got time for “What y’all wanna eat?” everyday lol 

- Lastly I’m trying to make room for IG this week because that hasn’t been a priority. But @planoly is coming in clutch for me.

So I’m implementing the strategy: if you fail to plan, you plan to fail! And I’m planning to get it done this week!!!

Share this with an entrepreneur that could use it!

I was tired of paying 2 mortgages in daycare cost, working all day and only seeing them for a few hours in the evening. Then, the hassle I’d get when I needed to take off for them!

#Workingmoms don’t get enough credit!!!! It’s a JOB in itself juggling it all…..let’s not get into the last 2 years. 🙄

My plan was to make it through their daycare days, but I done got out here an built an empire!

Don’t tell me God ain’t good!!

So, yeah. I’m gonna be right here, taking care of my babies.
