Dec 31, 2020 No. 13 It's New Year's Eve and we hope you've got a rad ritual lined up to sweep out the old year (see last week's issue for plenty of ideas). Today we take a look back at our favorite Cubby reads of 2020. Thank you so much for hanging out with us this year; we love you all!
We started Cubby on the spur of the moment this fall (although the idea has been in our heads for a long time!). We were cooped up, trying to make the most of this weird quarantine at home as families, but also stretched and tired. We had a hunch that while this year has mostly been a flaming dumpster fire of things we hope never happen again in our lifetimes, we might also come away with a nostalgia for all this extra time with our cubs. Could we find ways to live a little better and more easily through it at home together?
Cubby is made by a teeny part-time crew of parents who mostly have other jobs, and who really love our homes and our kids. Everything you've seen on Cubby has been something that one of us wanted and felt would give us a little burst of energy for better life at home with kids. We wanted to know the best ways parents have improved their homes for pandemic lockdown, and what books would bring a big dose of fun to bedtime reading. We learned how to build a Halloween candy chute, and we talked about tween gift strategy. We peeked into homes of families who have made small spaces work for vibrant family life.
If you're new to Cubby, or are just joining us, thank you for following along on this pandemic school year adventure, and take a trip with us through these stories and others, plus some of the best tips that you our readers have shared along the way. cubby follows Have a girl who likes to create?

cubby finds: sequins! ask maxwell I'm putting together my first nursery and need a nursing chair. I want something really comfortable, but also that I won't mind keeping for a long time. They are expensive! - Emma Dear Emma,
Nursery furniture is a big challenge. I will come back to all of it in the future as it can be a big first expense and not something that's very useful for the rest of your child's life, but I want to give a great recommendation for THE chair we found. It was awesome and is still in use, even though Ursula is fourteen. Maxwell Ryan is a father and was an elementary school teacher in NYC before founding Apartment Therapy.
