Fall Is Here: Getting Back On Track

Like so many of you, Fall is hands down my favourite time of the year. The cozy sweaters, the colourful leaves and pumpkin flavoured everything. But as the air gets cooler and lazy-summer days become memories, a lot of parents often only have one thing on their mind: getting back to a schedule. Don’t get me wrong, this is what we have been looking forward to as well. We recently put Zuri in daycare a couple days a week, and the routine has been great for everyone! But I also don’t want to forget that if we provide her with toys that are created to encourage imagination, physical and emotional development, a lot of what we’re seeking can be found right at home! I feel confident in knowing that she is still hitting milestones and learning even on the days where we aren’t on a routine.

I remember talking about the Fisher-Price® Laugh & Learn® Smart Stages™ Chair a while ago when Zuri was just learning how to walk. I love that she still enjoys playing with it after all this time – because there is nothing worse than buying your kids a new toy that only lasts a few weeks until they move on to the next one. Because of the Smart Stages™ technology, the learning content changes as she grows, so she’s constantly learning new songs, phrases, numbers shapes and more! And the cutest part about it now is when she says ‘sit down’ before sitting – every single time LOL.
