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!

A Peek Into the Life of a Working Mom: Almost Wordless Wednesday (Photos at Carnegie Science Center)

Disclosure: I was able to visit the museum, compliments of a media pass.

I've long appreciated that The Carnegie Science Center is a great community resource.  While I was on maternity leave I was able to visit there with my children. The visit reminded about why I like it so much!

One of the great exhibits at the Carnegie Science Center to teach the kids about science.

It's educational and fun!
The Carnegie Science Center is family friendly and looks out for breastfeeding moms. The Family Care Station on the first floor is great for nursing.  It was reasonably clean. However, if it's not and you have time to ask them, I'm sure they would clean it for you.  Since I had an infant and a toddler, I didn't have that type of time.
