Yesterday Joshua (my 15 year old son) and my husband, Jason, flew out to Oregon to visit the NIKE World Headquarters for the Young Athletes Innovation Summit. This was Joshua’s first time flying since he was a tiny baby and he was beyond excited. The experience was great and Josh has a funny story about being stopped for random screening by the TSA. Both of my guys have enjoyed the past two days together. I’m loving the extra … [Read more...]

In just two short days my husband and oldest son will be boarding a plane headed to Oregon. Why? They were invited to attend the NIKE Young Athletes Innovation Summit at the NIKE headquarters! How amazing is that, right? Joshua just turned 15 and has been playing sports since 1st grade when we signed him up for soccer. The bug bit hard and he has played nearly year ‘round ever since.

NIKEiD | Nike Free 5.0 Running Shoes Samples were received for review purposes only. All opinions are my own.

So here are OurKidsMom’s husband’s thoughts on the Nike Free Run 5.0 shoe... At the … [Read more...]
Are You a Sports Mom? Gatorade and Moms Join Forces to Support Our Athletes: Gatorade GIVEAWAY [CLOSED]
by
My 14 year old son, Joshua, is a very sports active teenager. He is currently involved in track and spring soccer, sometimes both on the same day. Both of these activities take a lot out of a person, it doesn’t matter what the age of the participant. I have caught myself worrying more than a time or two about his nutritional needs, his physical health, his mental health (we all know physical and mental work hand in hand) and basically his … [Read more...]

Finding A Balance With Our Kids Activities | Let Your Kids Be Kids
by 4 Comments
Let Your Kids Be Kids Are your kids involved in enough activities? Or have you put them in too many? Finding a balance between not enough and too much can be difficult. We have all seen those TV shows that have put the lime light on kids who are bred to be superstars in their craft. I do have a bit of an addiction to dance moms and can somewhat relate to … [Read more...]
