Last Week's Most Popular Articles βEinkorn Flour Wafflesβ Happy Thursday! βNon Toxic Spring Cleaning Checklistβ If you haven't cleaned out your dryer vent lately, you might want to move it up your priority list. Ours vents out through the roof, so we hadn't done a proper job of it in maybe 2.5 years π«£ The good news is - the dryer run time is almost half now. But it's scary to think we were wasting energy and increasing fire risk by not doing it sooner. π’ That's my PSA for why a checklist is helpful... You can find two different aesthetic versions of our printable non toxic cleaning checklist here. βJosΓ©e Bergeron on Raising Nature-Centered Kidsβ This was another interview I had a hard time trimming down (you might know her as Backwoods Mama in Canada) and I swapped happy memories of growing up mostly unsupervised outside. We talked about how we can try to recreate that (with a few more boundaries) with our kids. We also talked about what inspired her new book Beyond the Front Door, and how families can nurture more connection, presence, and intention in everyday life. βMindfulness Bears Guided Meditation + Printable Sceneβ This printable scene is fun to make with little ones and can help create little moments of calm throughout the day. Guide your child on a relaxing trip into the woods to meet friendly bear cubs Molly and Moon in their mindfulness cabin. Find the meditation and printable here or access it anytime in the library. And if you'd like one of the remaining chat slots, just reply and I'll get you on our calendar! Thanks and have a lovely weekend π Amity & the Green Child team βCurrent Issue | Instagram | Pinterestβ |

Last Week's Most Popular Articles Easter Charcuterie Board IdeasEaster Coloring Pages How Blue Light Affects Kids' Sleep (especially toddlers!) We get a lot of questions from parents of young kids who struggle with falling asleep. Recently I noticed some of them saying things like, "I'm typing this from my toddler's bed." Given (what some might call) my obsession with natural light rhythms, I'm surprised it took this long for it to click. What if these kids can't fall asleep because they're...
