MAI RECOMMENDS: REVOLUTION MATH

Hello Friends! I wanted to introduce a live math tutoring program called Revolution Math that Zooey has been using to stay on top of her math. She's currently in 1st grade but we felt it would be beneficial for her to get ahead of her class. Revolution Math is designed for 2nd-5th grade but so far the lessons have been great for her and she is feeling more confident with her math skills. When you sign up for a trial, you receive this learning kit with all the tools you'll need for your lessons. 

The live, online interface integrates an interactive learning experience with a story-based curriculum and Common Core aligned math games. Before each 'math' lesson, the students read a story that takes them on an adventure. There can be up to 4 students in a class under the instruction of one teacher. Zooey has the same teacher each week so she feels really comfortable with her teaching style. 

After each class, the teacher emails us a recap of what Zooey learned in class and how she did with all of the new challenges. They are open to answering any concerns you might have and it's really so nice to see how excited Zooey is every week to do math!

We really want everyone who has kids that want to up their math game to try this program. If you're curious how it compares to KUMON and MATHNASIUM, please refer to the chart below.

We're offering everyone a FREE 4 weeks of REVOLUTION MATH and a starter kit for $1 with code "ZOOEY"

Please feel free to share this code with your friends and family!

If you have any questions please feel free to ask me in the comments and or click REVOLUTION MATH for more information.

MY FIRST BORN ZOOEY IS 7 #ZOOEYSTUCKINTHE80S PARTY REPORT

Balloons: Anagram // Floaties: Sunnylife Australia

Gosh I know it's been quite a while since I updated this blog, but I really wanted to make my comeback when I was most motivated! 2 years ago, we threw Zooey an epic 70's themed 5th Birthday party. To see the party report for that party

After the party 2 years ago, I told myself never again, and that she can wait until her sweet 16! But in the past year and a half, Zooey worked really really hard. No matter how busy we were, she just always tried her best, so I thought, ok, she has earned a party..So then I decided, let's throw her a nice 7th Birthday party to outdo her 5th Birthday Party. 

And here we are, #ZOOEYSTUCKINTHE80S

Balloon Garland: Wild Child Party 

Caboodles // Lipsmackers // Stickers + Pens from Yoobi

 We created a DIY station with Caboodles and the Yoobi Stickers.

It was a big hit!

 MeshKids provided a Ball Pit + Soft Play space

It quickly became a playground for the kids to play wreck it ralph lol

We really had this space for Amelie.

 Mattel + Barbie were a huge sponsor and provided the party with all the decor and some sweet swag.

P.S.

In case you wondered, we used Paperless Post to send e-vites to our guests. I just love the interface of Paperless Post because it looks so pretty and fancy but they also have fun card options. We were searching for a super cute 80's vibe card design and found it easily by just searching 80's birthday theme! Everything is customizable, from the envelopes to the actual card font. There are plenty of 'free' choices but it only costs a few points to add that special touch to your cards. Another feature I loved was the "messaging guests" feature because it was really easy to communicate with our guests. I was able to customize our RSVP request too which helped minimize the amount of messages we had to send to our guests. I was actually able to do a lot of things on the Paperless Post APP on my IPHONE. Out of all the email invite services that I've used, Paperless Post is by far my favorite and there aren't random annoying pop up ads lol.
