5 Survival Tips for Being Sick at Home With Kids
5 Survival Tips for Being Sick at Home With Kids
I have almost fond memories of being sick as a child - being waited on hand and foot by my parents, surrounded by pillows and blankets and watching hours of daytime television. Being sick as an adult is not nearly as fun. And being sick as a parent with a young child to watch is not fun at all. Last week I got sick, really sick, and as luck would have it my husband was on a 6-day business trip. It was a rough week, but here are 5 lessons I learned to help me out the next time.

HOT POST
Amanda Moore On Green Nursery Design
Earth Day was last week and Amanda Moore is a great source of inspiration and information. For many years Amanda has designed green nurseries for her east coast clients, and now she has gone remote with Sprout, a custom design package that Amanda puts together from afar, working off of photographs, measurements and her detailed Sprout Questionnaire. We had the chance to pick Amanda's brain and she gave us plenty to think about.
 

HOT TOUR
Elouanâs Heirloom Chic Nursery
Name: Elouan
Age: 9.5 months
Location: Montréal, Québec
Room Size: 9’ x 14’
 
Elouan’s room started with a slate grey room, a Great Uncle’s armoire and some botanical vintage wallpaper. After some expert sleuthing through garage sales and second hand stores this vintage chic treasure of a nursery came to fruition. We asked Luce to answer a few questions about the process of designing her son's heirloom inspired nursery.
 

DAILY FIND
My First Nursery Book by Franciszka Themerson
This book from the 40s, published for the first time in the U.S. may not be your child's first introduction to these classic tales (The Gingerbread Man, The Three Little Pigs, and The Three Bears) but it may be their first encounter with Polish avant-garde artist Themerson whose illustrations make this book a gem.
