This week on The Mom Self-Care Podcast, I’m joined by S. S. Coulter, creator of The Fassa Tails children’s books and upcoming activity app, for a conversation about making playtime meaningful without relying on constant screen time.

We talk about how low-tech activities can fuel your child’s imagination, give them room to move, and free up moments of peace for you as a mom without the guilt.

In this episode, we discuss:

💜 How to engage kids in creative, active fun without endless screen time.

💜 The inspiration behind The Fassa Tails and why low-tech play matters.

💜 The link between balanced play and a child's and mom’s emotional well-being.

Whether you’re looking for fresh ideas to keep your kids engaged or simply need a moment to breathe, this episode will inspire you to embrace the kind of play that benefits the whole family.
