Meet Victoria

The mama behind 3craftmama!

HI! I’m Victoria, an Early Years ESL teacher and a young mama of three raising my girls in a compact apartment, one long afternoon at a time. Most of the ideas you’ll find here are inspired by our everyday life around the dining table, on the balcony, at the park, and wherever our day takes us.
So if you’re looking for low-prep activities to make your afternoons feel a little lighter, I’ve got you.

Long afternoons feel even longer in a small apartment… don’t they?

Join the 3craftmama community, and every month I’ll send you simple Print & Play activities and realistic, low-prep ideas/setups that fit your small space. They’re the same ideas I reach for on rainy days, after kindergarten, and during those long afternoons when everyone’s energy is running low.
