Mom with a Plan

Five on Friday!
April 17, 2020

Happy Friday, friends! I’m finding that each week brings on new challenges and frustrations but if I sprinkle in things that add to our family fun and entertainment at home, it does help! I have a list of 5 things that are bring us Joy right now and I hope they spark an idea for you and help your family too. Let’s get to it….

1// Car Tape: I had purchased car and train tape a long time ago. I had forgotten about it until I’ve been seeing Tyler’s obsession in lining up his cars and creating traffic jams. This tape is like painters tape and comes off easily and leaves no residue, which is awesome!

You can find the car tape HERE and train tape HERE
He played with it for hours and loved it. Next, we are going to add the train tape.

2// LED Party Light: I purchased this light to take our dance parties to the next level for our Family Fun Nights. It was a success, the boys loved it. It comes with a remote so you change the settings. You can change the modes to go to the beat of the music and you can decide which colors you want too.

3// Capri Blue Volcano Candle: I went over to a friends house and her home smelled heavenly. When I asked her what scent it was she introduced me to the Capri Blue Volcano Candle. She was so kind and sent me home with one to enjoy because you can buy them in bulk from Amazon. This candle is my go to scent when I want my house to smell good. I also love it because it is white and blue and goes with a lot of our home decor too. I’ve enjoyed giving it as gifts and I highly recommend it!

4// Lemi Shine Appliance Cleaner: I was excited to try out this cleaner to get my appliances to be sparkly clean and smelling good! I used this cleaner on my dishwasher, my washing machine and on our kitchen sink. I found that it worked really well and I’m happy with the cleaning job, yay to good smelling clean appliances.

The Dishwasher:

Washing Machine:

Kitchen Sink:

Pour contents into empty disposal and run hot water at a slow trickle. After 20 seconds, you run the disposal for 5 seconds. Then turn disposal and water off and let it set for 2 minutes. It does its thing and then rinse it all away and you have yourself a nice clean good smelling sink! You can find the appliance cleaner HERE.

5// LEGO Masters TV Show. It’s on the Fox network on Wednesday evenings. We wanted to find a show to enjoy as a family and we came across this show and it’s all about lego building. We thought perfect both our boys love lego’s. We are big fans of the host, Will Arnett! He adds appreciated humor to the show. The show is a reality-competition series and consists of several teams competing against each other for a $100k grand prize. They are judged on design, creativity and imagination. Each week they have different challenges and twists and it keeps the show interesting and entertaining, we have all loved it!

This show is for all the LEGO lovers out there!

I hope you all have a great weekend! Get outside, get moving, get in some cooking and enjoy this extra family time together. It helps to focus on the positives of this situation. One huge positive is all the family time together to create fun, funny and lasting memories with our children.
