The best apps for kids and parents (at least, in my opinion)

Posted on July 21, 2015 by heatherlauraclarke

My fingers are aching from a full day’s typey-typing at this Professional Writer Girl job, so I’m just stopping in quickly to share a piece that was published today.

I’ve written about my favourite kids’ apps and tech gadgets before, so I was keen on tackling this article on parenting app-ily ever after (*chortles at own cleverness*) for the awesome new Family Matters magazine.

Really, any day that I can publicly rave about my undying love for Rachel Coleman and her signing skillz is a good day.

I’m Heather Laura Clarke. I’m writer living in beautiful Nova Scotia, I have a 11-year-old son and a nine-year-old daughter, I married my high school sweetheart, and this is the story of my handmade life.

I have depression and anxiety, and I fight like hell every day to keep it from taking over my life. Making things isn’t just a hobby — it’s part of what keeps me alive.

Whether I’m writing novels, decorating a room, busting out my power tools to build furniture, getting muddy in the pottery studio, sewing clothes for my kids, or cross-stitching a swear word, I’m all about using my creativity to craft a life I love.

I’ve been writing this blog since 2009, so if you dig deep into the archives, you’ll meet a bright-eyed 25-year-old newlywed who was basically obsessed with having kids, buying a cozy house, and supporting herself full-time as a writer. (Spoiler alert: she got exactly what she wanted.)
