my Outdoorsy Momβs story
I started as a mom of three under three, juggling a full-time job, homemaking, endless errands, and all the usual mom-life chaos. Like many parents, I relied on screens to keep my kids occupied while I managed the day.
Sound familiar?
But deep down, I knew my kids needed more time outsideβmore than just the 20 minutes they got at daycare. Growing up in Michiganβs Upper Peninsula, my best childhood memories were made outdoors, and I wanted the same life long memories for them.
So, I made it my mission. We started with just 15 minutes a day after work, gradually increasing our outdoor time each week. By spring, my kids were playing outside longer, more independently, and developing problem-solving skills I hadnβt even realized they were missing!
Now, Iβm here to help you get your family outsideβin simple, achievable, and FUN ways! Whether itβs backyard camping, identifying birds, or a simple nature walk, you donβt need fancy gearβjust a little curiosity and a willingness to explore.
