Let me share with you some new things my children have learned…

Hey everyone! I am so excited to share this information with you about my children. I am SO proud of my children right now! Over the last few days, my kids have been playing with the Discovery Toys Busy Bugs Learning Set, as well as our Playful Patterns. Now, that’s nothing new, because those two games have been one of their favorite games for quite a while. However, they are definitely learning some new things with them!

For starters, my 2 1/2 year old daughter has been learning how to match basic colors correctly. After working with her over the last year on colors and color recognition, and seeing little results, this is the biggest success in this department that I have seen with her! I am SUPER excited and proud of my baby girl!

Now, my son, he LOVES Playful Patterns. As many of you know, he is turning 4 years old this Saturday. Boy how time flies! He has spent countless hours playing with the Playful Patterns game since I joined Discovery Toys back in September 2008. But now, he has taken it upon himself to, instead of placing the colored foam shape pieces on the cards that have picture designs, instead, he looks at the picture on the card, and creates it with the foam shape pieces on our kitchen table. Sometimes, he will even create his own picture! Take yesterday for instance, he decided to create a sailboat with the pieces. He didnt have a picture of a sailboat anywhere in site, he was doing it all from what he visioned in his head. he even made it into a 2D picture by making part of the sail stand up! What does this mean? It means, not only is this game teaching my little boy shape recognition, colors, matching, etc., but it is also teaching him that it is O.K. to use your imagination and create something all on your own! Creativity is a wonderful, exciting thing for children!

I can’t tell you how many hours my children have spent playing and learning with the toys from Discovery Toys, I can tell you this though… I am seeing great results from them playing with these toys, and I will encourage everyone I know, and everyone reading this blog, to buy your children some toys from Discovery Toys the next time you need to buy something for  your precious little one. They will love you for it, and you will love seeing the wonderful successes your child will acheive!

Have you ever wondered…

Have you ever wondered what its like to be a Discovery Toys Educational Consultant?

Well, let me tell you, this is absolutely the best financial, personal, and business decision I have made in a VERY long time! I am having so much fun helping other people find high quality educational toys for their children, finding the “perfect business fit” for their financial needs, and playing with all the wonderful children (and adults!) that I meet at my parties!

I only work about 10 hours a week (sometimes less, just depends on what I have going on and how I feel lol), and I am quickly working my way up the “ranks” to building a wonderful business that my children will be proud to tell their friends about when they get older! I have never felt this much enthusiasm, excitement, and success with any other business that I have tried over the last 6 years that I have been looking for MY “perfect business fit”. I have made more money in one month with this business than I have made in a YEAR with others I have tried! And trust me, it wasn’t because of a lack of trying with those others. I work less with this business, but make more and feel more successful than I have in a very long time.

When I am working in my home office (not at a party), my typical day goes like this:

7 or 7:30am- I wake up to my beautiful children calling my name.

7:30am-8am Check my sons blood sugar levels, give insulin & Breakfast (it IS the most important meal of the day, ya know! LOL)

8am- check emails, reply to emails, play a little bit on Facebook, have a tickle match with my kids or some other fun activity

10am- Check my son’s blood sugar levels, and give both my kids a morning snack

10:30am- Get my son dressed for Head Start, pack up his diabetic necessities for him to carry to school, brush his teeth and hair and watch some educational kids shows on PBS or Disney… or we pop in an educational dvd to watch together

11:20am- Make sure everything is ready for my son to take to school, get his coat/jacket on, and we start watching for the school bus to come while playing I SPY, Ring Around The Rosies, or some other silly game with the kids.

About 11:30-11:45am- put son  on school bus, get daughters lunch ready, put a load of dishes in the dishwasher, a load of laundry in the washer

12pm noon- Lunch Time!! Wait for the call from head start to tell me how his levels are doing, and how well he is eating his lunch (in case I need to make some adjustments for him over the phone)

About 12:45-1pm- play with my daughter, read some books to her

About 2pm- check email again, then maybe take my daughter outside for a while wheather permitting, or find another activity for us to do.

About 3pm- put away dishes, change over laundry, put laundry away, goof off on Facebook or other networking sites, wait by the phone for head start to call to tell me his afternoon snack time number and make adjustments as I see fit.

About 3:30pm- Check email again, do a little internet advertising

4pm- pick up my son from the school bus, check his sugar, do some activities while we wait for my hubby to get home.

4:30pm talk to hubby while preparing dinner

5:30pm Dinner time! YAY! Check my sons sugar, give him his insulin, and eat!

6pm- talk to hubby for a few more minutes

6:30pm- Nap Time!!! Sometime between now and 8pm, my hubby gives the kids their baths

8pm- hubby checks my sons sugar level, gives him 2 kinds of insulin and gives the kids their bedtime snack, usually I am still napping at this time unless the kids wake me up lol.

8:30pm- start bedtime routine, brush the kids teeth, wash their face, pick up their toys in OUR bedroom, the living room, and THEIR bedroom lol, tuck the kids in, and read them a bedtime story.

9pm- hubby goes to sleep

9pm-12am- some advertising, chatting with friends online, sometimes I schedule some online vendor parties, and play around on the internet.

12am- do a midnight blood sugar check for my son, If he has a good number, I go to bed. If not, then I stay up till 3am watching A&E and playing on the internet.

3am- Check sons blood sugar again if he didnt have a good number at midnight, then go to bed

So, you see, I really do not spend much time at all on my business. To be completely honest with you, I dont even do advertising everyday like this. I do it about 2-3 times a week, if that.

Now, when I am helping a hostess who has already booked a party with me, about 2 weeks before the party, I put together the hostess packet and mail it out. If they have questions, they either email me or call me with them. The night of the party, my parties typically last between 2-3 hours from start to finish.

So you see, I spend MOST of my time with my family, playing with my kids, and VERY LITTLE TIME on my business each week.

Why am I telling you all of this?

Well, because, many people think they “don’t have time” for a home based business. But, let me tell you, if I can do it… if other mothers who also work outside the home can do it, YOU CAN TOO!

So, if you have ever thought about becoming a Discovery Toys Educational Consultant, contact me today! I will always be here to help you squeeze in simple, quick, effective ways to grow your business.

But, I WILL NOT be your baby sitter. I will not hold your hand and do the work for you. I am looking for self-motivated, serious individuals to join my team and work our way to the TOP within the Discovery Toys business.

Have questions? Need advice? Just need to talk to a rep to see if this is that “perfect business fit” for you and your family?
