The Frugal Girl

NOVEMBER 27, 2023

Tell us a little about yourself I’m 40 years old, married with two sons who are 11 and 7 years old. As a foolish young high school kid, that rule annoyed me because I wanted to spend ALL of my paycheck, but I still saved a chunk of it because I had no choice. The hardest is passing that frugal inclination on to my kids.

This Make Your Own Ice Chalk project is simple to make and will entertain the kids for hours – or at least as long as the ice lasts! I recommend getting a cup or big bucket of water nearby so kids can just dip their hands in it after playing with the chalk to clean them off. Pink, blue, yellow, green – whatever your kids want!

My 7-year-old son went with me ( we had a mommy-and-me date night ) and we both feel in love with the movie. I think my son related to the movie because he saw how much Mike Wazowski (voice of Billy Crystal) wanted to follow his dream job – and since my son already knows what he wants to do, he immediately felt connected to the character.

And as a mom of 3, I was looking forward to checking out an SUV with plenty of room for our family and “stuff”. I also noticed right away that it offered an optional 3rd row of seats – that is a huge plus in my book because our current SUV has this and my kids really enjoy being able to spread out.
