Queen of Katwe~ New Featurette

“Queen of Katwe” is the colorful true story of a young girl selling corn on the streets of rural Uganda whose world rapidly changes when she is introduced to the game of chess, and, as a result of the support she receives from her family and community, is instilled with the confidence and determination she needs to pursue her dream of becoming an international chess champion.

Oilogic Essential Oils~A Mom’s Must Have!

I have said it before, and I will say it again, I love essential oils and the power they pack. I use them for many things. One brand that I am extremely fond of is Oilogic. Oilogic Essential Oil Care always uses 100% Pure Essential Oils that are sourced from around the world. Each of their blends include the right concentration of each powerful oil, diluted appropriately with a carrier oil, to create a safe, yet effective formula for your little ones. My family has seen the benefit of essential oils, and we can’t say enough good things about them!

MommyCon~Washington DC

MommyCon, a first-of-its-kind natural parenting convention, returns to Washington, DC with a larger than ever event at the Walter E Washington Convention Center on Saturday, July 23rd, 2016. The conference comprises a full day of educational programming on natural and organic parenting methods plus a product showcase hall of 80 exhibitors. Keynote speakers include body positive photographer Jade Beall of the Beautiful Body Project, Jessica Martin-Weber of The Leaky Boob, Jennifer Labit, CEO of Cotton Babies, and acclaimed actress and YouTube sensation Angel Laketa Moore.

The Magic Blanket

Sometimes falling asleep can be hard to do. My middle child struggles with this on a daily basis. When he was diagnosed with ADHD, we decided to use a mix of natural and medicinal treatments. Finding the right balance for this was difficult. One area that is particularly challenging for him is falling asleep. With lavender essential oil, no screen time, and the discovery of weighted blankets- we found our solution!

The BFG Prinatble Activities

The talents of three of the world’s greatest storytellers – Roald Dahl, Walt Disney and Steven Spielberg – unite for the first me to bring Dahl’s beloved classic “The BFG” to life on screen. Directed by Spielberg, Disney’s “The BFG” tells the imaginative story of a young girl and the giant who introduces her to the wonders and perils of Giant Country.

See Jumanji at the Adventure Theatre MTC!

Adventure Theatre MTC(ATMTC), brings to the stage its fourth and final world premiere of the 2015-2016 Season with Jumanji, directed by Serge Seiden, director of the Helen Hayes Award winning Charlotte’s Web and Helen Hayes nominated A Little House Christmas. Based on the Caldecott Medal winning book by Chris Van Allsburg, the production will feature a 4-D audience immersive experience.

The Beach~A Favorite Summer Getaway

Every summer since we have had kids, we have gone to Virginia Beach. I love feeling the sand in my toes and seeing blue as far as the eye can see. It is such a family friendly beach. We look forward to it every year! I’d love to share some of my top beach tips & tricks with you!

Parent Social Media Safety Webinar

Most parents are shocked to learn some of the apps on their student’s phone are anonymous, or have anonymous features. Then, the parents have questions, about what they can and should be doing about these apps. This summer, we’re supporting a free social media safety webinar to teach parents the “17 bad apps their children should never use.”
