Hi there – I’m Kelly! After teaching for seven years, I entered the world of being a stay-at-home mom when my son was born. You might even see him make an appearance on the blog or on Instagram every once in awhile! And being a boy-mom has taught me everything and more that I will ever need to know about insects (yuck), construction vehicles, and the solar system.
Our little family of three lives in the Chicago suburbs with our two cats and the many random insects that somehow become “pets” for a day or two. Most of our free time is spent outside, whether it’s biking at the trail or DIY-ing our yard. My husband also works from home, so we get to spend a lot of time together as a family!
I started this blog when my son was born as a way to “keep my sanity” and share some of the projects I was working on.
Typically Simple has evolved into a place where I share simple ways to infuse a little creativity into an already busy day. Because I know how tough it can be to do that craft project with a wiggly three year old. Or how trying to get dinner on the table with someone playing cars under your feet is a daily occurrence.
Typically Simple provides ideas for crafting with kids, hands-on activities, and fun printables to make learning fun for the whole family.
