Using Canva to Streamline Household Mangement!

Abby H.

Are you familiar with Canva? It’s a website where you can make all sorts of media- both print and digital!

I love it because I have made forms including inventories, visual schedules, and weekly calendars. It has been an immense help in keeping my home running more efficiently, which is definitely needed with two neurodivergent kids.

Here are a few that have really helped me:

Parents receive a 10% off in-store coupon. The best part is that the 10% off coupon can be stacked with other JCP coupons.

August’s craft is a cute pencil pouch and notebook!

Here are just a few of the offers available now:

    • Period Cramp Relief Cream by Control
