As we try and get accustomed to our "new normal" many people and businesses have offered their expertise and services to the world to view virtually. Below is a composed list of some virtual activities I have seen online or someone has shared with us. Most events are free, others are low priced. Take advantage and see a museum you have been dying to see, work on learning that instrument you've been dying to learn or unleash your creative self and dabble in some arts in crafts. I know things seem pretty rough right now but we can all find some positivity in it all. Check out the list below and enjoy your virtual classes or tours. If you have another fun activity to add to the list please share with us at info@fabulousmommys.com. Free websites to assist in homeschooling

Hi, I'm NakeiyaI decided to start Fabulous Mommys to help women and mothers throughout their journey of motherhood. Everyone's journey is not the same although we share similarities. One thing for certain is we ALL need a village and I strive to provide just that through education, tips and resources to help our village along. Moming isn't always easy or fabulous but it is rewarding. Some days I feel like Beyonce when I wake up and by the end of the day I look and feel like a hurricane hit me. Join me as I share my own stories, some recipes and fun! Archives
