D-Day Books for Kids!

6 / 6 / 24

80 years ago, the turning point in WWII happened with D-Day. 80 years! That is incredible! My 10 year old has a fascination with WWII and D-Day in particular. He can tell you enough facts to blow your mind about the event!

So to commemorate, here are our favorite books about D-Day to help you learn more about it with your child!

What Was D-Day by Patricia Brennan Demuth
Remember D-Day by Ronald J. Dre’s

I Survived The Battle of D-Day by Lauren Tashis 

I Survived The Battle of D-Day GRAPHIC NOVEL by Lauren Tashis

Great Battles For Boys: WW2 Pacific by Joe Giorello

D-Day: Untold Stories of the Normandy Landings by Michael Noble

D-Day: The Liberation of Europe Begins by Doug Murray

Hope you can find something you and your child (or even just you) can read together and learn a little more about this historic event!

Date Night Printable

5 / 16 / 24

Hey hey! A while back, I was visiting with a friend and she said for date nights, they take turns picking movies from their childhood to watch together. That is such a fun idea, and I had a very distinct picture come to mind for a printable after she told me this!

So, of course, I sat down and figured it out. I also did two options. A black and white one and one with a bit of color. Here you go!!

Home Projects Printable!

5 / 9 / 24

Who else has a whole list of home projects you want done? If you are like me, you have lists all over the place. Random papers, notes on my phone. So I decided to make a printable to have all of them in one place! I split it into two sections, interior and exterior. Because there are always outside projects to do, am I right!?
