I am convinced that one of the biggest reasons my siblings and I stayed out of trouble growing up was because we knew how to have fun.

Real, wholesome fun.

The credit for that largely goes to our parents who created an environment where fun was so easy. They made home a pleasant haven and a place where we were happy to bring our friends, and they enjoyed coming!

This blog is committed to helping my family and yours foster that same kind of creative and inexpensive wholesome fun in our homes. Far from having it all together, we are a young family and have lots to learn!  I love it when people send me ideas, links, etc.  I also appreciate all the comments with encouraging words and advice.
