So I started a new page in my “mom notes” notebook - my next 5. I keep other lists with tons of ideas and I have a lot saved on pinterest but my next 5 is the place I go to when I want to implement. And I don’t necessarily have 5 in all categories, sometimes I just have one or two, but I won’t let myself have more than five. Here are a few of my current “next 5”
Books to read:
- A Charlotte mason companion type book (I've read two of her own books but want to get a summarized version as well)
- Bible training (not discipline) book (Recommendations anyone?)
- Miss Pettigrew lives for a day
- Wool unders for Lucy (Got a awesome thred-up coupon so splurged some from these last week!)
- Praise/Bible verse CD
- Indoor shoes/slippers for Lucy (love these)
- Art prints for Lucy’s reading nook
- Christmas/Advent items: (beeswax?) advent candles and Lucy still doesn’t have a stocking!
- Self-serve water station
- Rearrange clothes for independent dressing
- Lacing activity
- Music station
- Montessori rough/smooth boards
Great idea! I have a large cloud of should-be-doing items floating above my head right now. You inspired me to make a list (of 6) for this weekend while my husband is home to help with baby duties and errands (4) to run next week. Thanks for the motivation.
