Work at Home Moms (WAHMS) and The Kids they Love

You work at home, you have kids. You love your work, you love your kids. Keeping a balance between the two is harder than many people think. Women working outside the home think work at home moms (wahms) have it made - but wahms know that's not the full picture. Separating work form family life, space and time is harder than imagined. You never really get to "walk away" from work --because it's always right there with the laundry, the kids, the dishes and the homework.

Keeping little ones entertained, engaged and with you while you make productive headway on your home business or direct sales work can be a blessing. No one is asking for kids to be ignored or neglected - but rather stimulated and close by!

We all know that it can be hard for the work at home mom to find ways to keep the kids occupied when she is working from home. Why not gather up different types of books with activities that are only used when mom needs to make that important phone call. This gives the child something to look forward to.

What kinds of books? The possibilities are endless. Activity books can be found at your local Dollar Store. With activity books and some washable markers or crayons, you can sit back and watch the smile appear on the child's face.

What other things can you o to keep the kids occupied?

* Blank paper and crayons. Give the child free reign to design you a picture that they want to draw and color.

* Coloring books and crayons. A variety of coloring books allows the child to color special pictures just for mom while she is working.

*Picture books. You can even get these at your local library. All children love to look at picture books. When mom is done with her phone calls she can tell the child that they can "read" the book to her.
