Holidays can be hard for kids with neurodivergence

Holidays can be hard for kids with neurodivergences. The routines they rely on shift, and one-time-a-year events can bring unfamiliarity—unexpected sounds, new smells, loads of sugar, and sometimes late nights. It can be overwhelming, even for the most excited little hearts. ❤️

This year, we’re preparing ahead. Before the hustle and bustle fully sets in, I’ve pulled out FosPower’s kid-friendly headphones to help my daughter find a safe space when she needs it. Whether it’s canceling out sounds, retreating to a quiet room with her favorite tunes, or focusing on a calming holiday story, these headphones are a game-changer!

The benefits go far beyond just managing sound:

1️⃣ Sensory Regulation: They help her manage overstimulation in noisy, crowded environments.

2️⃣ Increased Confidence: She feels more empowered knowing she has a tool to create her own “safe zone.”

3️⃣ Improved Focus: By minimizing distractions, she can tune into one thing at a time—whether it’s music, a story, or a calming activity.

4️⃣ Predictability in Chaos: These headphones give her something familiar and consistent, bringing comfort amidst the unexpected moments of the holidays.

5️⃣ Encourages Self-Regulation: She’s learning to recognize and meet her own needs, an essential skill for her growth.

6️⃣ A Calming Outlet: Pairing the headphones with soothing audio helps her relax during heightened moments.

With padded cushions, an adjustable fit, and a max volume of 94dB, they’re safe, comfortable, and practical. Bonus: the fun LED cat ears make them a hit with kids! 🎧✨

Navigating the holidays might not always be smooth, but tools like this make it easier for her to feel in control and supported—one sound at a time. 💕

Gift-giving doesn’t have to be complicated! Some

Gift-giving doesn’t have to be complicated! Some of the best gifts I’ve ever received were thoughtful, practical, and consumable—simple treasures that bring joy and get used (and enjoyed!) right away. 🎁✨

While I love shopping local, sometimes my busy workweek doesn’t leave time to hunt for that perfect hostess gift or something special for the therapist, postal worker, or neighbor still on my list. That’s why I’m so thankful for @dierbergs—they make it easy to shop local while checking off my list, all during my weekly grocery run!

From BBQ sauce baskets for Grandpa to sweet treats for your daughter’s therapist, or a hand-crafted basket of St. Louis favorites for a new neighbor, they’ve got you covered. 🛍️ It’s such a joy to give gifts that are not only thoughtful but also showcase the amazing local flavors and makers I love.

This year, I’m giving gifts that are loved and keeping it simple.

Brands I found this weekend includes @pappyssmokehouse @bogartssmokehouse @ziasonthehill @valentismarket @amyscakepopshopandboozybites @jillyscupcake @bissingers @tuckersplacestl @thepastahouseco @rigazzis @dadscookieco @sugarfiresmokehouse @imospizza @kaldis_coffee

Here’s to the holidays—not the rushed, jam-pac

Here’s to the holidays—not the rushed, jam-packed, “do it all” version, but the slow, meaningful ones. The afternoons spent wrapping presents together as a family. The evenings filled with movies, hot cocoa, and blankets. The days that leave room for board games with friends and crafts that fill the house with laughter, love, and joy. The slowness that lets orange peels and cinnamon simmer on the stove and fresh cookies bake in the oven.

It’s so easy to feel like you have to do everything: take your kids to every holiday event, hit the newest pop-up bar with friends, attend every festivity, parade, or Santa meet-and-greet.

Just stop. Not because those things are bad—they aren’t—but because it’s too easy to get caught up in the belief that you’re not a good mom, friend, or spouse unless you do it all. That your holidays need to be scheduled to the brim for them to be magical.

They don’t. You’re not missing anything by slowing down. Your kids aren’t missing anything either.

So make room. It takes just as much intention to create slower, quieter moments as it does to plan out all the activities. At first, it might feel hard or awkward. But soon, it will feel magical.

Slow down and savor the season. That’s where the real magic is.

This Thanksgiving, my heart is full of gratitude f

This Thanksgiving, my heart is full of gratitude for all of you. 💛

To those who have been here from the start and those who are new, thank you for being part of this journey.

To those who call St. Louis home and those who don’t, you all hold a special place in my heart.

Wishing you all a Happy Thanksgiving filled with love, joy, and a little extra magic. 🍂✨
