Amy Darley, you are one of the best moms ever. They shall rise up and call her blessed. Makes me wish I had had a mom like you. You give my ❤️joy taking such care as you do.
Amy, God bless you for giving teachers the appreciation they deserve. Your heart is so pure 🤍. You inspire me to go above and beyond for my kiddo when he’s old enough to go to school! BTW I subscribed to your channel not too long ago and have been binge-watching your videos 😆
So happy to have you as part of the community. We have a lot of fun here and Amy is amazing. And this community is full of amazing people. Welcome to out RU-vid family.
LOVE this video! Amy, your back to school ideas are so fun and inspiring! I love the Bible verses and notes idea - will definitely do that as well! Thanks for sharing!
Love your ideas for Back to School! The first day of school is hard enough, so making things special for the first day is a clever idea for children and teachers. Thank you for sharing! 😀
You can so tell that you were a teacher.😄 I love it. You put in so much effort in every little detail and it shows. You're a great mom. I love how you go above and beyond for everything. To many a lot of it may seem so extra, but for your kids they will always cherish these memories. I just love your spirit, you seem so sweet. You give me so much inspiration and drive. Thank you.
Really nice!! Love the kids baskets i might start doing that! The past school year at the end i did Starbucks gift card and tied them with ribbon to a rose wrapped in tissue paper! My older daughter is special needs and she always has like 5 teachers every year !
What a special back to school celebration for your kiddos! I love all the creative things you do and I know that they will have such wonderful memories of these days. 😊 I hope they both have a great year at their new schools! ❤️
Hi Amy! I love that you are so thoughtful and put so much effort into everything! Your kids are so lucky and I hope they have a great school year and make lots of new friends!
Little ones are sort of nervous that first day or even week. All these things you did for your children. Make them feel special, and loved and see fun too. They know your there for them. it helps to present a calm balanced start. You know…..learning is fun, you come home and I’m here for you. I know all moms can’t do this…if you can reach out to help them..if they need or want help. ❤❤❤❤❤❤📕🖇✂📘📓🖋🖌🖍🖍
I just got my books at the bookstore at my college! And I was looking through them earlier and I start on Monday and I’m very excited! I’m putting up a tv in my office tomorrow
Hi Amy! Does your school have a PTO? You would love it. We always took great care of our teachers. We would help raise money through fall festivals or the penny drive and we would have special lunches or buy school supplies for teachers. Just thought I would share.
Wow, they've grown so much! What a wonderful treat to start the new year...I love how you make everything so special.🥰 They are blessed to have such caring and thoughtful mama. Love watching your DIY's. I have only the cricut joy so far. I wanted to see how that went before deciding to go with a different model. I must say it's so fun! It definitely scratches that creative itch I get. Because I love to organize and create.
Hey Amy, I am new to your channel, I am Shayma from Egypt and just wanted to say hello and thank you for the motivating video , we still have 2 weeks to school, so I think I a gonna be ready enough time ahead ☺️👍
Hi there from northeast Mississippi! I am a high school teacher of almost 20 years. I love teaching, decorating for holidays, and keeping a clean, organized space. I just love your channel and your sweet personality. I watch all the time but have never commented before. I hope your children have a wonderful year at their new school. You have definitely made their childhood special with all of the extra things that you do. See you on the next video. God Bless.
Loved when my kids wore uniforms back in the UK. Everyone wears uniform tbh. And it literally makes life soooo much easier all around. We now live in Canada and my youngest doesn’t wear uniform but im hoping to move him to a school with uniform lol
Hey Amy! you are an amazing mom!! always look forward to your videos. Could you make a video with all the traditions and little things you do every year for the kids, please? like the breakfast baskets and the totes where you save all their year stuff you pick please??!
I have the beddys for my boys and love it. I did have a few sets for my husband and I on our king size bed and it was fine, so easy to make the bed, but I missed normal bedding for us. For kids I love it and especially for bunks I think it’s a must have. I also don’t think it’s much pricier then typical target or other bedding because it’s like a comforter, blanket and sheet set all in one. Buying those all separately I’m sure is comparable.
Hi Amy, you were saying that you are a teacher also. For the first time in 20 years ( yes I am older than you lol) I decided to take the year off to persue other dreams. You are so amazing to be doing some back to school predent for the teacher and they are so original and fun. Love your back to school video.
So growing up in Maine I love that you are supporting LL Bean. My husband worked there when he was much younger and still has a backpack he loves using from over 20 years ago, and it’s still in great shape. Always had LL Bean bags growing up as well. We also love their lunchboxes.
This makes me so nostalgic! I'm 42 and my daughter is 20. She just moved out and I'm bawling!!! Even though I worked her entire life, I tried to always be involved in her schooling. I love your ideas, I had a hanging organizer for her clothes during the week. Enjoy these days, they really do go by in the blink of an eye. ☺️
My son used ll bean when he was in school. From pre k to 12th. I only had to buy 3 the whole time he was in school. They are the best and hold up so good!!
En la casa de mi tía eh mi madre y mi padre se fueron de viaje mi youtuber favorito así que RU-vid no sé cuántos días me quedara aquí no sé cuando regresa mi mi madre no tengo ni idea del viaje así que vamos a esperar
When my kids had multiple teachers I would always have my kids ask what their favorite snack was and write down on a piece of paper the name of the teacher and their favorite snack and then I would put together a big basket with all the different snacks at the teachers and a gift basket and leave it for their teachers in the staff room or whatever you want to call it so that's how I would do that
My favorite teacher gifts I ever did was when my son was in daycare. The teachers rotated in and out so there were several I needed to recognize. I went to Dollar Tree and bought several of their popcorn buckets. I grabbed some microwave popcorn and movie candy to fill them, as well as a few cans of soda. Then I bought some Redbox codes and wrote a code inside each thank you card I then tucked in the popcorn bowl. Instant movie night. I wrapped them in DT shrink wrap cellophane when I was done but you could just as easily leave it open.
I’m 70 and having lived those Groovy Days I adored your groovy back to school them!! So so groovy!! You are a precious young lady. Loved your Bible verses chosen. Perfect!
The amount of work u are putting in these videos is sooo appreciated . Love you and thanks a lot You are the favorite person always and forever and dearest to heart🍡🍓🍧🎉🥰🥰💖♥️❤️❤️🌙🫂
Hi Amy! I loved your video. I can’t believe summer is over :( What cordless vacuum would you recommend for hardwoods? My cordless Dyson just died. Thank you
? Hi Amy, any tips for cheaper, but wanted gifts for middle school teachers? I’m in GA Northwest of Atlanta and middle grade students have 6-7 different teachers?!
Love your BTS video every year! I'm assuming their attending a private religion school. Our uniforms for public out here are more plain khaki but private religion is plaid. My kids are at new schools because of our move and one is moving into HS but they're excited for no uniforms. Each elementary has different rules about uniforsm or not. We just always have hated it when we moved to this area. When my youngest goes to middle school she will be back in uniforms again! Sorry that novel! Hope your kids have a wonderful school year!!
I’m new here and I loved this video…You are wonderful momma…I wish I had a Cricut to do have the stuff you did in this video…May God continue to bless you and your beautiful family
You’re totally super mom on another level. Send that over here to Alabama. If this is too personal I totally understand, but what made you decide to transition to private. Hubby and I are going back and forth. I went to private school he did not.
Ahh one of my favorite videos you put out each year!! I always love seeing the tactical side of how families get prepared! I hope this is an amazing school year for your family! 💕
Kids have crazy growth spurts at times! I use to have my girls wear bike shorts under some of the dresses depending on the style it kept the item moving through the rotation a little longer, they loved the look! Great video, thanks for sharing!
Amy just wanted to say I love watching your channel. I discovered it during COVID 2020 time staying at home with my kids. Keep it up. I feel you have a lot in common with many mothers and families out there. You're an inspiration!
Hi Amy! Love this video! And love books that you have - can you recommend some books for 1-3 graders, my son loves reading, he read all of the recommended books from his 1st grade list already, and I am buying him all of the books that i can find :). Would love to hear your ideas of the books your kids love! Thank you very much!! 🫶
What a fun back to school video! Your kids are going to remember this stuff for the rest of their lives. Can you talk more about switching to a private school? I’m also a teacher-turned-stay-at-home-mom and I’ve been considering the same switch.
Amy, your such an amazing and kind Mama! Your kids are so blessed to have you! 🌸 I can’t believe they will be in 4th and 6th grade already! I wish the the best school year!
Yes I got the Beddies for my daughters bed and we love it. Her bed looks so good when it’s made. She’s three so she gets a kick out of making her bed. It’s also upper easy to wash!!! I will buy these again
Love it! My grandson starts first grade this week! That is crazy he is so big do you have a link for your print and cut back to school banner? I didn’t see one, I would love to make him one.
This is my favorite video of the year! It always gives me SO much motivation to get everything in order for my own little ones for school ❤️ as well as always inspiring me to create memorable moments ❤️ Thank you!!
Amy you're a remarkable mother...u don't forget anything for the children or the teachers..soooooo thoughtful and kind. Now....did the children want to attend private school??? We went to a private school (catholic school) not easy!!! Will Caycen continue baseball?? Truly always love your videos..
They were actually really excited about the switch. They loved being at school with their friends but they have friends at this school too so that made it a pretty easy transition. And yes, Caycen will definitely still play baseball 😍 He is on a travel team and they only play 3 tournaments in the fall and then will pick back up in the spring
Gracie June is so grown now! I subscribed to you when she was in Kindergarten I believe, (maybe first grade?) in your back to school video! Crazy how time flies. ❤️ I love these videos, I also love your holiday decorate with me's. You have a beautiful home, Amy. Hugs!
Super cute video, I LOVE back to school!!! Side note: I love the way you spell your son’s name. My 2 year old has the same name, but it’s spelled Cayson. 🥰
You always do the BEST DIYs!!! Caycen and GJ are so blessed to have you as their mom, and you are so blessed to have them!! Have a great 4th and 6th grade! Our kids are going into 5th, 2nd, and Kindergarten this year, so this is the only year they will be in Elementary together, so crazy!!! Thank you for the reminders, btw! I almost forgot about the ice packs and thermos, haha
Hi Amy! I remember when you made those clothes holders by days of week. Such a great iidea. My kids wore uniforms too and it was so wonderful and easy. Have a great school year!
Really good video!! 😀 I was just curious why do you call Gracie….Gracie June a lot? But your son just Caysen? Does she like to be called that or something? Just wondering.
