Remember Avatar? It was crazily popular back in the day. I watched it back then and because my husband has apparently never watched it, we saw it again a few months ago. Avatar was so popular that it also became a series on Nickelodeon as Avatar: The Last Airbender from February 2005 through July 2008. The series won quite a few awards and spawned a sequel series, The Legend of Korra, which also won quite a few awards. Now this critically acclaimed, Emmy® Award-winning Avatar: The Last Airbender and The Legend of Korra animated series are back in a brand-new special collector’s edition: The Ultimate Aang and Korra Blu-rayTM Collection perfectly in time for the holidays!

I always enjoy a good book but I am ecstatic that my preschooler loves books as much as I do. In fact, our book shelves seem to be bursting at the seam. He loves reading all sorts of books. We read chapter books, picture books, facts and his current age is just so much fun to interact with, particuarly with certain National Geographic Kids Books.

I personally chose not to enroll my child in preschool this year because of my concerns for COVID and the inability for my child to get vaccinated yet. Hence, I am all for a great library selection at home where I can encourage his love of reading, learning, and his overall growth.

I hear friends complain all the time. It's summer and my kids aren't doing anything but watching TV. I don't hate TV, however I do know that too much screen time is never great for a kid's development. There certainly are educational programs that are great out there, however, it's also nice to limit that at times, spend some quality time with the kids and have them explore the outdoors. So with the lull of summer and kids being out of school, what better than a fun summer reading pack from National Geographic Kids to stimulate their brains and keep them active?

So I'm going to rant...just a little. I am Asian, proudly so. I work a full-time job in the medical field. I'm a wife, a mother, a daughter, a granddaughter and so much more. More importantly, my full-time job helps others. I get there are varying opinions out there, I get that there's a bunch of propaganda out there. However, is it that hard to treat others with kindness and respect? #StopAsianHate -It's quite simple. I watch those videos of random people attacking innocent and random Asians going about their day and it breaks my heart. It could be my mother, my grandmother. My parents are active in their church helping others and also work in the medical field, helping others. Open your hearts, people are more than what they appear by outer appearances. That is why, it is with absolute joy and happiness that I share that Disney finally has an Asian princess heroine in Raya and the Last Dragon. It's about freaking time! I absolutely LOVE Disney but have always complained about the lack of good Asian roles in Disney and Hollywood in general. Raya and the Last Dragon arrives on 4K Ultra HD™, Blu-ray™ and DVD beginning May 18 and brings a beautiful message.

Oh, the dinos that this mother knows. Mmmhmm, I've always loved dinsoaurs as a kid and that love didn't completely dissipate as I got older. However, a mother always LOVES it when her adorable preschooler just happens to love the same things. My goodness, when I told him we'd be getting some Dino books soon, every day, he'd check the door and say, "Maybe Dino books?". So yes, my little Dino lover was just a bit excited for what was to come. Every day for about a week, he'd ask to see if his Dino books had arrived yet! Who could blame him? It made me excited just watching his excitment for the National Geographic collection!

As a mother, the most important thing to me is a healthy and happy child. So I’m always looking for a healthy alternative to something. Particularly since my preschooler rarely eats his fruits and vegetables at school, I find myself always adding fruits and veggies after pick up to ensure that he gets enough!

I love my sweets as much as anyone else but I admit, I'm a little bit of a hypocrite when it comes to my child. In a sense, having a child has curbed a lot of my bad eating habits. I tend to go for healthier options to try to set that good example to get them started on life in a healthy way. So, our Easter is typically less sweet-tooth oriented than it used to be. One of my absolute favorite go-to's are gifts that are both fun and educational if you've followed along the blog at all. Our proverbial Easter basket for our preschooler this year is sweet in a non-sugary way.

Though we enjoy the occasional silly read, most of the books I choose for my child are filled with subtle learning messages that not only teach my child facts but also hopefully, how to navigate his feelings and social growth as a person.

I seriously miss the movie theater. However, it's not so ba these days because with a pre-schooler, sitting still for a movie in a theater sometimes doesn't work. That's why we love the ability to watch movies at home...especially Disney movies! Any WOS reader knows that we love Disney and are very much so a Disney family.

In this world of quarantine, so many are working on home DIY projects. However, for us who may not be wood-work inclined or having crazy amounts of time to put into a project, there's some rather simple things that can be done that don't take up too much time and still transform a space. I happen to love watching HGTV and enjoy interior design and updates. 

Welcoming the New Year with a bundle of books! Well wishes for 2021 and our kind of quality #family time! #spon

Happy New Years! May 2021 be peaceful, warmth-filled and full of healing. I know we always enjoy a good read together as a family. It's a part of our quality time together as a family. Over the holidays, these were our favorite go-to books for bedtime and daily reading!
