This Jelly Bean Tree craft provides a super cute and cheap Easter decor option that your whole family (and guests) will surly love! All you need are some branches, a large vase, jellybeans, and a hot glue gun to get started.
It is the perfect time of year to be picking up branches from the yard, and now you can make them beautiful again by bringing a little bit of “outside” in, and decorating them with jelly beans! I prefer the pastel colored jellybeans to give it a more “Eastery” feel, but the option is yours of course as to which brand you use.

Here is a cute Easter treat for kids that could be passed out to friends, used as a party favor, or even as a place setting on a table at a springtime gathering. It’s an adorable spin-off of the traditional s’more! However, Easter S’mores use a peep instead of a traditional marshmallow. Add in a graham cracker and chocolate to make this sweet Easter treat. We put all contents in a plastic baggy, stapled to a piece of card stock, and added a cute note that said, “You’re one of my favorite peeps”.
This was a fun treat to put together with my daughter for her preschool class! Continue scrolling for more photos and some additional fun Easter activities that are perfect for kids!

Lately though, as my boy is getting older, there are things I wish I’d known sooner, done differently. The one piece I wish I’d learned first in our journey is something I’ve come to see as the first rule of autism and the prevailing smart point. Of all things autism, this is the one I wish I’d internalized in those very earliest moments. Continue reading below to learn the Autism: Rule #1….
Being the mom of an anxious child is life changing! It changes the lens through which you read any parenting situation. It changes the tone of your voice; the ability to be spontaneous (ok, parenting in general orders a ceases and desist letter there); and it seriously changes your family dynamics. Changing doesn’t mean worse however. Well, yes it does sometimes. But it can also open your heart and enrich your brain as you struggle to learn new approaches to ordinary things.
