Hi Margaret! Your hair looks particularly lovely in this season! This family moved from Australia to the U.S & we brought only a suitcase each with us & needed to be very particular about what we packed. Needless to say, 99% of toys were left behind. We haven’t replaced hardly anything & we’ve never been happier…with far less! We don’t need as much as we think to be happy, quite the opposite. It’s culture that tries to tell us otherwise. Travel light, live light to be the light!

Great video! Especially the part about going outside! Every time when I feel overwhelmed with my two little ones going outside helps so much ❤

Lovely timing.. I've been feeling so overstimulated with amount of toys we have, even though it's already pretty minimal. Only going to leave out Lego duplos and little people

This video just came up. I’m a mom to 3 little ones. 7.5 year old son, 3 year old son and 1.5 year old daughter. I stay at home with them and homeschool and we bought our first home, a cute mobile home which I absolutely love. I just get so overwhelmed with the cleaning and the sensory overload is crazy…I just started watching this video but thank you for posting

My 6 and 7 year old LOVE the adult version of sequence and it's something we can get lots of family members to play with us too!

Childless. Still watched the video ❤ My mom told me she had to take my dresser out of my room because she would come check on me, and I would get up and dress all my teddy bears and i would tell her “well they were naked, or they were cold” lol 😂

Not technically a game but all my kids love magnatiles. So open ended, like legos, where they can build their own creations. My kids enjoyed Kerplunk when they were smaller. 😊 Edited to add I wrote my comment right before you talked about magnatiles.... lol

So we have a 3.5yo son, games we love are card games. We have one snap card game we do snap, memory and matching with. We could also do go fish. We like connect 4, he doesn't get the game yet but loves the turn-taking. Also Ludo or checkers. He loves 'jumping' counters and 'stealing' them from mum and dad. He just loves anything that gives him our undivided attention

Thank you for pairing toy recommendations with the tips in this video! I am always on the lookout for activity - based, creative toys for my boys. They learn self entertainment from toys like this!

Thanks for the basketball hoop recommendation, Margaret. I’ve just ordered a similar one. My boys love a game called ‘Monkey Bingo’. A simple game but all ages can play we always have fun! Thank you for your advice too - decluttering and routines are the processes I continue to come back to when life becomes overwhelming.

My son did matching games and now my grandson does. My grandson uses Disney and Dr. Seuss Matching Games. Both very good.
