Hello, EmailTuna! 

Whether you homeschool or send your kids to school, the end of school is quickly approaching. I’m feelin’ the crunch this week ๐Ÿ˜ฉ, so today we’re focusing on surviving the end of school year. 

1. Go diaper-free before the end of the school year! ๐Ÿšผ

Are you trying to get your toddler potty trained before your big kids wrap up the school year? I remember the first time we took a vacation without having to lug duffle bags of cloth diaper supplies… it was glorious! 

Here are a few resources to help you reach your goal:

2. Swap out harsh cleaners for this DIY version๐Ÿงด

Whether you’re doing a little spring cleaning or helping your child clean out his locker at school, use this DIY all-purpose cleaner. All you need is:
  • A spray bottle
  • 1 teaspoon of organic witch hazel
  • 10-15 drops of Thieves essential oil
  • 2 ounces of distilled water
Get the full recipe here.

3. Planning for a screen-free summer? ๐Ÿ“บ

School’s nearly done, and for many kids, that means outdoor play, summer vacations, pool time, camps, and afternoons spent at the park. But let's face it — the screens are beckoning them as well. 

Here are a few indoor screen-free activities for the dog days:
  • Montessori-style toys
  • Puzzles ๐Ÿงฉ
  • Art and crafts (stock up on supplies now so you’ll be ready for summer days!)
  • Sensory toys or bins
  • Musical instruments and/or lessons
  • Books
