My 5 fave mom blogs that you should check out:
How many of these amazing moms do you know? I'm going to share some of the top bloggers in the special needs parenting arena that have helped me and inspired me to share our family's stories.
By the end of this article you will have some go-to places to find common ground with other parents, recipes and craft ideas to work on with your kids, sleep tips, special needs product reviews and even some seminars available to take to work on yourself and help your family thrive.
So let's dig in!
is a lovely diary of a mom with a boy called Cooper (and three other children) who has Autism. It also contains blog posts written by moms from all over the world with children with diverse diagnoses and needs. It details the ups and downs, the wins and grief that come with being a family with a child with special needs and how those needs touch each and every person.
is a beautiful blog that has some pretty great ideas on how to engage your special kids, manage yourself as a parent and crafts and cooking ideas! We all know how the mealtime struggle can be an extra worry with sensory kids and we often have extra nutrition concerns to navigate. There are lots of great ideas on this site to get you whipping up fun activities with your kids and some yummy snacks and meals too.
is a lifestyle blog for parents of kids with special needs. It was even awarded a Top 30 Disabled Child Parenting Blog! My favourite section is the one on sleep. We have struggled with sleep with our youngest since she was 4 months old and I always feel like a lot the info out there doesn’t apply to kids with special needs and this page touches on the added struggles we face every night.
is a great place to find info about parenting, home schooling and some wonderful reviews about books, reading and spelling games. There’s another great sleep article, and the author even has a book called Beyond the Diagnosis: the path to thriving as a special needs parent.
is a very popular blog from a mom who also happens to be an educator. She offers articles on self-care, connection with family and spouses, understanding behaviours and development, and even a very cool (and free) Sensory Processing Starter Kit. If you’re looking for tools to help you “Calm the Chaos” at your house, I think you’ll really like her page.
Each and every one of these blogs are the brave stories, helpful hints and even some great resources to help us move forward with our kids without having to re-invent the wheel every time. When you don't really have a community in your local area of moms who "get you" then these are some great places to find your village.
I have dreams of being that place you come to for community, but since I'm just getting started, I hope you'll hang with me while finding everything else you may need for your family. I hope these blogs help.
If you have any blogs you love that didn't make my list, please share them in the comments below, I'm always looking for more mamas to inspire me!
When it comes to keeping personal care simple and thoughtful, one clear example can stay with me longer than a long list of general points. A small consistent habit can be easier to assess than several unfamiliar changes introduced together. That thought gives me a starting point for exploring personal care ideas in connection with Mafelicita. I would rather explore one useful example carefully than pretend that the whole subject is already clear. What would help someone decide which parts of a personal-care routine are useful to them?
There is something appealing about learning through hands-on creative projects, especially when the focus stays on the details people might otherwise overlook. Handling a material directly can suggest ideas that are hard to discover from a picture alone. The name Globosgladys gives this theme a memorable reference point, while creative craft projects keeps the subject in focus. I would rather explore one useful example carefully than pretend that the whole subject is already clear. What small experiment would you try before planning a finished piece?
A discussion of learning from gardens and growing spaces seems more useful when it connects an idea with something easy to picture. Returning to the same growing space can reveal changes that are easy to miss during a single visit. That practical perspective helps me frame gardening observation ideas as a theme for Givingtreegardenmarket. A simple comparison would help me picture the differences without rushing towards a fixed answer. What would you record to make those changes easier to compare?
Considering reading health information with clearer questions, I would want to understand a few concrete details before deciding what matters most. An explanation is easier to assess when it separates what is known from what still needs investigation. For Burunestetikbursa, I would use health information literacy as a starting point for a closer discussion of the subject. The smaller details are what I would want to return to, especially when an explanation feels too broad. What would help a reader recognise the limits of a general health statement?
A discussion of communicating ideas to the right audience seems more useful when it connects an idea with something easy to picture. A clear explanation of a practical benefit can be more useful than a string of enthusiastic claims. The name Blueskiesmktg gives this theme a memorable reference point, while digital marketing ideas keeps the subject in focus. I would be interested in an example that shows how the idea works in an ordinary situation. What would make a short message feel relevant rather than intrusive?
