About The Mom

The Easy Daysies Story I am a mom, a wife, a school teacher and the creator of a product for children called Easy Daysies®– the Magnetic Daily Schedule for Kids! I launched my first product about two days after our third child was born. Easy Daysies® is a Canadian company where our magnets, made with 70% recycled material, and ReStickables are made in Canada. I package all my orders on our kitchen table, often after bedtime. As a classroom teacher, I have always had a visual daily schedule up in front of my classroom showing the children the shape of the day. Having a visual routine is an excellent tool to help children to co-operate and it makes them feel safe, confident, and in control of their day, which resulted in having happy, comfortable, and organized students and classroom. Having a visual indicator of what was going to happen next made event transition easier for all my students; it was especially effective for my students with special needs too. It was so effective that over my years of teaching, I have had many parents ask me if I could make something like that for their child at home. So, for my first 8 years of teaching, I made visual schedules for parents to help their kids at home. I saw the frustration of many parents of children with special needs and learning disabilities struggle to make their own visual routine and I knew I had to help. Then one day I had my own children and I realized the true value of such a visual schedule at home! It worked wonderfully in my classroom and no wonder parents wanted something like this at home! I started drawing a sequence of pictures of what we were going to do that day. She was only 3 and a half. Then I started writing the word beside the pictures I drew. Before I knew it I had made a magnetic prototype daily schedule that we kept on our fridge door. I was very excited about not having to draw pictures of everything we were doing every morning!! Just by looking at the pictures/words on our fridge, my daughter and son (then 5 yrs old and 21 months old) were able to tell me what we are doing today. They loved it! I loved it! No more "Mommy, what are we going to do now?" asked every five minutes. Instead, my children often have their shoes on raring to go out to the next activity they see pictured on our fridge! That is two less pairs of shoes I have to beg to put on as we try to leave the house. I love it because I was very pregnant with our third. I drew every single illustration on the Easy Daysies magnets to make sure that they were simple enough for even my two year old to understand. The goal of Easy Daysies is to help kids have easier days. This is how my visual daily schedules got the name Easy Daysies®. Easy Daysies is trying to help children all around the world too. As of January 2009, 5% of Easy Daysies profits go to the International Justice Mission, an organization that helps to free children around the world from devastating bondage and suffering like slavery and child sex-trade. It always warms my heart to get emails and hugs from parents telling how Easy Daysies have made everyday struggles become smooth sailing moments. I feel so very blessed!
