We all know that kids don’t always like to eat their fruits and vegetables, and that preference can carry on into adulthood. Some simply dislike the taste, while many others find the texture off-putting. That’s where fruit and vegetable supplements swoop in to save the day — it can be a lot easier to reach your daily goal with a little help from either a powder or some capsules packed with vitamins, minerals, and other micronutrients you may be missing out on. Even if you like eating fruits and veggies, supplementing your intake may be a helpful way to round...

After adding a new “big girl” bed in our 4 year-old’s bedroom last week, I started thinking about ALL of the kids room storage ideas and decor tricks we’ve used in all of our kids’ bedroom makeovers in the past few years.

Basement Art Installation (artwork created by my son many years ago) The other day I asked members of the MakeBigArt Community the following question: Were your parents/caregivers artists or creatives or makers? Did you grow up creating along side either of them? Do you have a favorite memory making with them?
