Caboodle Doodles!

















Have you seen my new YouTube series, Caboodle Doodles, yet? No?! What are you waiting for? Go HERE to see the newest episode

In this episode, I grabbed The Big Book of Drawing, Doodling, and Coloring (which, for right now, is on customer special for ONLY $8! It's a steal!) and started with, what I thought, was a pretty easy page.

I am no artist, clearly. BUT I do enjoy a good, relaxing coloring session. I don't care if you're 3, 30, or 300 years old, it's very clear that coloring has some serious benefits for individuals.

Did you know?

  • Coloring provides a meditative state of mind
  • Coloring lowers stress and anxiety levels
  • Coloring helps you focus on the present task in front of you
  • Coloring aids in practicing problem solving skills
  • Coloring activates the creative side of your brain
  • And coloring can help develop fine motor skills

If you're like me, join me on this little adventure! Grab yourself a copy of the book HERE or go to "Shop" at the top of this page and fill up your cart with $40 of amazing books and grab it for only $8 under the customer special (for limited time). Join me on YouTube every Wednesday, and use #CaboodleDoodles on Instagram to tag and post your creations! I'd love to see what you all can do while having your own relaxing coloring session!

Once Upon A Time...

Once upon a time there was a book lady who decided she wanted to occupy another tiny part in the interwebs and so she grabbed a hold of the blogosphere and said "Hello, blogosphere!

As with most things in the world, I'm not 100% sure. And that's A-Okay because finding out is half the fun (or, maybe most the fun, only time will tell) All I know is that right now, I *think* it'll be part mommy-ing, part reflections, part figuring out social media, and of course, lots of books, reading, and literature. Brought Cuddle Bear's Book of Hugs and the cuddliest Cuddle Bear into my kindergartener's classroom! I can tell you what it's NOT going to be: perfectly refined and edited material. Because as much as I'd like to give you perfectly refined and perfectly edited material to read, ...

It's a Billie B. Weekend!

Spring break 2018 has ended for us, and we had such blast on our week off! Not only did we spend time out with friends and family, not only did we go to playtime events and amusement parks, but Penelope (my 5 year old) came to me with this book in hand before the week ended. Ages 4-7........... $4.99 "Mommy, I have a list of FIVE things we need to do. And don't worry, they're all at home! And I'll help get them ready!" Now, if you know my kid, you know that she has strong determination in the things she does. She makes long, elaborate plans without anyone knowing and then brings us into her world at 1,000 MPH without turning back. If you aren't familiar with Billie B. Brown, she is a spunky little girl with a best friend, Jack. They show up in each other's books, learning life lessons that any young child can relate to and apply to life. And you know what? That's exactly what my daughter was doing: Applying a life lesson she learned from th...
