Hey there!
I’m Miranda
I live in Michigan and am the creator of Filling Our Days. I love being outside and spending time with my children. I spend most of the day as a stay-at-home mom and have found activities and crafts to be such a helpful tool in my parenting journey. I’m here to share ideas you can try in your own family so you can reclaim your peace and enjoy the time you have with your children! Together let’s build memories and a life you love.

Catch up on what we have been up to in August on the blog and at home.
Ultra-Easy Salt Sensory Bin
This sensory bin is so easy to set up- just pour some salt in and grab a few cookie cutters.
Farm Animal Mud Bath Sensory Bin
This messy activity was cleaned up in only a few minutes and gave us the reset we needed on a hard day!
At Home Kid’s Car Wash
This kid’s car wash requires only 4 basic items that I bet you already have at home. It’s a great way to beat the heat and keep the kids entertained for a long time!
Lunch Box Notes
These lunch box notes are a great way to foster connection with your child, friend, or spouse even when you are apart during the day. Free digital download available.
Beach Day Sensory Bin
This is a fun way to play at the beach right at home! An easy to clean mess lets the kids have a blast but doesn’t require hours to tidy up.
Paper Towel Roll Car Ramp
This activity is low cost and uses only a few basic supplies you probably already have in your house. This can be a stand back and observe activity, which we all need sometimes!
Beach Themed Seashell Transfer Activity
This transfer activity is great for scooping skills and provided a lot of opportunity for meaningful conversation. Ultra-easy to set up and clean up, which is always a winning combination.
Paper Chain Countdown- Back to School
A classic paper chain to countdown to the first day of school! Easy to put together, especially with the template I made for you. This is a great activity and builds the excitement for school.
