I live in East Tennessee with my high school sweetheart and our two kids, Reagan and Derek. I could eat tacos and margaritas every night (I grew up in Southern California, so no Tex Mex for me). I also love coffee, Diet Coke with Diet Dr Pepper (basically everything except water), and ice cream. I like cheap things, hoop earrings, and the outdoors. And just like you, I want the best for my kids, too.

My passion & purpose
In 2017, Sandbox Academy was born to celebrate children’s milestones while making it easier for moms like me and you to be part of each one. You will find tons of activities for preschoolers with a parenting tip thrown here and there on the blog.
Since you’re new, here are two tips for you. Tip #1: repetition is key to mastery. I will guide you in teaching the same concepts while making activities more memorable for your little ones. Tip #2: you don’t have to have a huge playroom filled with educational toys to get your kids learning and playing. I will show you exactly how to use everyday things you already own to create a magical childhood.
When I’m not blogging or busy packing co-op boxes, I’m sharing mom hacks and activity ideas on Instagram and TikTok. I love getting to know my growing community, so be sure to stop by and say hi.
Have a question or just want to chat? Feel free to reach out to me at sandboxacademy@sandboxacademy.com.
