Has your family gotten a chance to play around on

Has your family gotten a chance to play around on our partner @carnegiehall Kids website yet? 🎹 🎵 🎻

It’s totally free and has some super fun resources for music education, like their Animal or Instrument? quiz and interactive Musical Explorers Around The World Map. (Swipe through for a peek!) Such a great option for kids who are ready to dive deeper into music . . . without requiring Mom's help or committing to lessons. 🙌

New episode!

Who came before us, and what can we learn from them? We think there's a reason that ancestry research, genealogy, and discovering family stories holds a special interest for midlife women, and we're here to talk about it. Meagan shares her journey back through time (and up to the UP!) to better understand her family's roots. She shares what resources she used, her process for uncovering the unknowns, and what she's discovered so far. Sarah has less direct experience but lots of curiosity.

New episode!

While we try not to kick ourselves when we're down and generally avoid second-guessing our parenting choices, we *are* human. And sometimes that means we experience regret. Today Meagan and Sarah reflect on some big and small choices we've made (or not made) throughout our parenting journeys, and why we'd do things differently if given the chance. We also reflect on regret as an emotion, and why sharing regrets can bring about connection with others.

Bonus episode!

Do you have to identify as a musical person to nurture a love of music in your family? We think not. Meagan and Sarah look back at parenting babies, small kids, big kids and teens, reflecting on the role music has played in everything from bedtime to playtime, nurturing kids' passions and finding shared interests as a family. We talk about what it means to "be musical," how we thought our kids' music learning would happen vs. how it actually played out, and what we've learned from our kids as their tastes and appreciation develop.

Kassidi wants to become a more confident home cook and asks us where to begin. Natalie needs strategies for easing the long wind-down at bedtime for her co-sleeping toddler. Joy is considering traveling with young kids on her own but wonders what age is best to go for it, what activities to partake in and what to avoid when you’re on a mom-only trip with kids. In Episode 439, Meagan and Sarah take these questions from our community and offer tips and validation. Enjoy!
