In this episode, Kallie and the crew dive into the reality of keeping kids entertained at home—balancing structured activities with the power of free play. They unpack the societal pressures of modern parenting, the importance of boredom in fostering creativity, and the role of parents as guides rather than constant playmates.
Special guest Abby, aka Gal Practical, joins to share her go-to low-prep activities and expert tips as an occupational therapist. From scavenger hunts to dance breaks, from mud pies to stopwatch challenges, this episode is packed with real-life parenting hacks and hilarious moments. Plus, the team wraps up with their "Pits and Peaks" of the week—because, let’s be honest, no parenting week is complete without a few fails and wins!
