Our daily schedule with 3 kids during self-quarantine

Hey  everyone! What a week it's been with our three kiddos! Daddy's working from home with conference calls, kiddos going nuts and needing all kinda activities :) seriously, it's gone by fine with a strict schedule: they all wake up at 6am, big boys go downstairs to play and adults & toddler can sleep until 6.30 (yay!) Then breakfast for everyone, maybe some cartoons and by 8am we're all ready to go out and play. Except for daddy, of course ;) Thank god for this awesome spring weather, it's been so easy to take the kids out with their bikes and to explore the neighbourhood. Three hours of playing outside while daddy gets to work inside in quiet & peace, we come back for lunch at noon. We always have snacks with us so they wont be starving and we get to play outside for a bit longer. It works, they eat, littlest one naps for three hours and big boys can play, do crafts and I get to rest for a bit. Without all that exercise in the morning they'd be all o

Self-quarantine and Microsoft products

Good morning, everyone! * this blogpost contains an ad with Microsoft / kaupallinen yhteistyö Microsoftin kanssa ". Self-quarantine continues in our family, as for many other families as well. This may cause anxiety for some as shopping malls and overall every place is closed due to the virus and thefear of catching it. Microsoft products Our way of surviving it: videogames & apps for kids to keep them entertained, and good equipment for hubby who's working from remotely from home office.  Microsoft  has a wide variety of equipment & entertainment for all ages from XBOX to Microsoft 365 and to one of the most talked about for remote work: Teams. Two of my oldest sons play Minecraft and Fortnite too much so xbox is their thing andin use ALL THE TIME. Everone keeps talking about great remote work products since everyone is working remote ATM and tjose products will need to work. So here's my tips for today to get through yet another quarantine filled day. Fo

Disinfecting cleaning at Offerilla  Day 3 at Self-quarantine has started and so far we're healthy and haven't catch the virus.

Hey everyone! What a week it's been so far and it's only tuesday!! My kids are off from daycare starting today and I'm here to share some activities for people experiencing the same. Yesterday we headed to a park nearby and we were the only ones there - I guess people are horrified of going anywhere these days. My bigger boys like to play video games which is something they can do for now, just to keep them from fighting 24/7 ;) My youngest son naps everyday for 2-3 hours and is currently free from ear-infection , yay! I keep having nightmares of catching that awful virus and every single symptom I have I google. Awful!! We do read a lot (thank god for having so many books at home cause the libraries are closed), play games, play with legos and other toys, or just go running outside to get rid of all that excess energy boys seem to have. We love sauna, light the fireplace all the time and just sit here and wait for the better times to arrive :) So here are some of my

Sick child, Reima outerwear and working mama - quite the combo!

Hey everyone!  It's been a while since I've posted anything but that's because we've literally been sick from january until now :( To be more spesific, my youngest one has been sick with stomach flu, flu and now with earinfection - in his both ears!! He's been up all nite long since it's been too hard to sleep through the night, poor little one. Luckily after been in and out of health center, which did nothing good in trying to find out what's wrong with him, we finally got an insurance for him and took him to a private doctor's. Now he's already feeling so much better, thanks to this super-talented doctor :) I hate when my kids are in pain! Outerwear at Reima  Sorry about a whiny start on this post! Other than being sick for weeks, it's been raining almost all the time which is not fine. Thank god for online shops like  Reima  who offer the best quality outer wear for kids, my older kids have so far stayed healthy (fingers crossed that
