What if you never had to rely on screen-time again?

With the Little Moon Membership, there’s no need to plan out activities (or spend hours entertaining your kid). It’s like having your favorite cognitive psychologist (hi, 🙋🏻‍♀️) design brain-boosting activities for your kid, unwiring them from screens so they learn to play more independently and tap into their natural curiosity.

And the best part? You get a fresh delivery of seasonal, fun, theme-based activities straight to your inbox, every month.

It’s time to end the Paw Patrol marathon and give your kid’s brain the “thinking activities” it craves.

Tell me if this sounds like you…

→ Your kid relies on you as their primary source of entertainment (no matter how hard you try)

→ You’ve set up activities before, but your kid played with them for 12 seconds before giving up (unlike the Instagram mom who said her kid played with it for hours 🫠)

→ You’re out of options, so you hand your kid an iPad to get things done, even though it makes you sick to your stomach thinking how many hours they spend blankly staring at a screen instead of playing

And the reality is—pediatricians say the max screen time for your 2-5 year-old is ONE hour a day (and that’s with you sitting right next to them)

But, if we don’t intervene early? by age 8, kids are watching an average of 7.5 HOURs of screen time a day 😳

But there’s good news:

Getting your kid to engage in healthy, brain-boosting activities (while the tablet gathers dust) is easier than you think—when you’ve got the right activities and a simple plan. A plan so good…

you’ll never hear “i’m bored” again

With fun activities at your fingertips so good your kids will be begging YOU for more learning

Your kid will learn to play independently

Unwiring from tech & building critical thinking skills boosts their ability to focus and play on their own for longer stretches, giving you an extra 2+ hours a day (hello, uninterrupted coffee wine time).

FEwer tantrums and better sleep

When kids aren’t overstimulated by screens, they’re calmer, tantrums decrease, and everyone sleeps better—including you!

Drumroll, Please! It’s time for…

mom and preschooler
but guess what…
When I had my son, the weight of motherhood hit me hard. The pressure was real—do. not. mess. this. up. I knew his brain was craving information, but I had no idea where to start, and I felt like I was failing.

What activities would help him learn?
What should I focus on?

So, I dove into research. With my doctorate in cognitive psychology, I turned to Piaget, schema learning, and brain development. Then I added Montessori for practical life, Waldorf for imaginative play, and movement from Pikler.

At 9 months, I made him his first toy—a Montessori ball drop from a cardboard box. It became his favorite. By 2, he was matching butterfly cards on the kitchen floor, totally immersed for 25 minutes straight. Now, at 4, he asks for “mama activities”—from scavenger hunts to sorting games, and it’s our favorite time together.

And now you can use the same activities for your little one too.

busy parents Use These Activities for Family bonding games
These printable activities are used by busy moms like Ashley, who repurposed a single bug-matching activity into 3 different games, including a family game that included both her 2-year-old and 4-year-old. Her kids had a blast while they bonded as a family, and Ashley felt proud her little kiddos were learning at the same time.

“it was so fun to sit and play together while also knowing he was learning”

My 4 year old had a blast with these. We started out with a matching game and then started playing a memory game. My husband and I played with him, all taking turns for memory, and it was so fun to sit and play together while also knowing he was learning. The printouts are beautiful and I laminated them so they would last longer—they look so good! Plus, the instructions are really helpful. It comes with a lot of information about how to use them with your kiddos. My 2 year old also enjoyed playing with them—there are lots of cards, so we were able to set up a smaller matching game for him while the 4 year old played memory. Can’t recommend enough!

Meet the mom behind the activities…

Hi, I’m Stefanie

I started Little Moon because I wanted to create activities for preschoolers, because they are in such a unique window of time, full of curiosity, and we can fuel that by showing them how fun learning is.

But (with a background in cognitive psychology) it was really important to me to create activities that are backed by research & actually support healthy development. I see so many activities out there that are completely inappropriate for preschoolers (*ahem* looking at you, worksheets). Just because they’re easy doesn’t mean they’re good for your kid.

AND, I wanted to create activities that are beautiful, grounded in nature, and almost like little works of art. (Not over-stimulating, multi-colored designs filled with cartoonish clipart.) Like the Montessori emphasis on beauty in our environment, I think surrounding ourselves with high quality artistic materials, allows our brains to slow down and appreciate what’s in front of us.

So, I started designing hands-on activities for my son. And now I’m making them available to you and your family.
