One Secret to a Working Mom Success: Make Family Events More Enjoyable With Friends

Better Together: Why Inviting Another Family Makes Activities More Fun #FamilyFun Sometimes family activities can feel like another item on the to-do list. However, doing those activities with another family makes them more fun! Whether it’s a trip to an amusement park , a visit to the local pool , or trip to a pumpkin patch , including another family can multiply the fun in amazing ways. One of my favorite moms to collaborate with is my friend, Ayana Ledford who's pictured above with her daughter Sahar. We have done all of the things listed as seemingly random examples above and here is how including her and her daughter (and sometimes her son too) has made the events more fun. On the date above, Ayana almost left the venue because parking was a nightmare. That said, she hung in there and we would up having a great time!

Friday Tip: Stay Tuned for Product Reviews

As you know I attended my first blogging conference, BlogHer’12, in August.  One of my goals in attending the conference was to develop relationships with PR companies and manufacturers so that I could become a brand ambassador.  I haven’t risen up the ranks of the highly sought after bloggers yet. I haven’t received a free trip to Disney World. And I haven’t had my face on a bill board in Times Square (yet).

I have made great contacts, gotten some cool invitations to events, and scored some swag. I have also been fortunate to get some products sent to me to review.

I will not transform Chaton’s World in to a “review blog”, mainly because I like writing too much and believe that other women can learn from my tales about the challenges I experience in balancing my life. And even if they don't actually learn anything, they may just get a good laugh!

However, occasionally, I will review products that I like.  Trust me, if I don’t like it I’ll let you know or I simply won’t write about it.

Stay tuned for my review of some cool products by Johnson and Johnson!
