My Recommendations

A Note Before You Dive In

This page includes products and resources my family and I genuinely use and love—especially in our homeschooling and daily rhythm. Some of the links below are affiliate links, which means I may earn a small commission if you make a purchase through them—at no extra cost to you.

These are the things we come back to again and again—simple, useful, and deeply loved parts of our everyday life.

Why Affiliate Links?

Affiliate links are a way for me to earn a small commission on purchases made through the links I share. When you click and buy something, it costs you nothing extra, but it helps support Stream of Blue and allows me to keep creating content that I hope adds value to my readers’ lives.

Thank you for supporting Stream of Blue—your trust means the world.

Favorites We Love

Here are some of our top picks, from homeschooling tools to daily essentials:

  • High Five Magazine – a huge hit in our home – thanks, Mom! It’s filled with stories, crafts, and puzzles that our kids love! You can read what got our family started on our monthly magazine subscription in this post.
  • Bob Books – Set 1 and Chicka Chicka Boom Boom (Board Book) – I shared how I used these to teach my child to read in this post.
  • FEZIBO Electric Standing Desk with Drawers. – this adjustable standing desk has been a game changer for my homeschool/work-from-home routine! You can see my full homeschool/work-from-home setup in this post.
  • Amazon Echo Pop Kids – what started out as a Christmas gift for our oldest so that we didn’t have to listen to Disney princess music from the living room, has surprisingly turned into a helpful learning tool. Our oldest uses it to practice Spanish on her own! Which, if you’re looking to teach your kid a second language, you can read about our journey with that in this post.

(More to come as I continue to build this list!)
