Mommy & MIa Homeschool Chronicles and it is December 31st so it is time for the end
of the year channel reflections make sure to subscribe and hit that
notification bell we are close to a thousand subscribers so if you're
watching for the first time hit subscribe hit subscribe we want to reach
our goal so anyway that's not about that this collaboration is not about
subscribers it is about reflecting on everything
that we experienced and everything that we enjoyed and not so much like in 2018
and we are co-hosting this with a beautiful April over at the simple
bucket Pat I will have her channel link as well as a playlist down below so that
you can see all of the other channels plus my beautiful co-hosts video on her
reflections so there are about 12 questions that I asked that I created so
that it can help us kind of just share what you know what our year was like so
the first one is list your top five favorite collabs tags challenges that
you participated in 2018 alright so the first one I'm gonna say is a chopped
challenge that I hosted with Claire over a cookie crumb fun I had so much fun
because we did a whole trailer trying to build up the you know the what is
it the excitement of this chopped challenge it was a trim healthy mama vs
Weight Watchers and it was just so much fun doing that with her I truly do have
a lot of fun it was just like the chop kind of show where we each gave each
other some ingredients and then we had to upload a video where we would prepare
a dish with these ingredients but we had to stay along the lines of either trim
healthy mama because that's what could clear over I could be from fun files and
Watchers which I was using at the time so that was one of them the second one
is the book-of-the-month a collaboration which is now what we've read I love that
because and I also co-host that with April over at the simple rugged path
you're gonna hear that name a lot because April and I love to collaborate
with each other we just have fun doing it so you might hear that me more than
once but I love the Book of the Month Club now known as what we have read
because it gives me an opportunity to share with my viewers my love for books
um it kind of motivates other people to read and it also gives me a chance to
share what I've read with others and and and you know have a discussion about the
books so I always look forward to that time of the month where I can just share
all of my reads and Mia can share what she what she has read and what she likes
and what she doesn't like so the next one number three is the secret channel
swap that was the first recurring collaboration that I have ever organized
it was a really big one because like I said members from the Facebook group
YouTube collaborators participated in that collaboration was a year round
collaboration we were all assigned a channel and no one knew who each other
had until this month December actually we just recorded the reveal um on Friday
so I will make sure to provide all the links of all the videos that I mentioned
here so that you can check them out and you can see why they are my favorite um
so I really love the secret channel swap so much so that I'm gonna continue doing
it but it's gonna be a little bit different it's gonna have a little twist
to it so make sure that you hit that notification bell so that whenever you
see them go up you can check them out if you would like to join the Facebook
group collaborators group I will also leave a link down below and you can
request and we will see if you can join in the next one is also a home school
mom box swap now this one is it was for one month it was hosted and
organized by the beautiful Rachel at day-to-day joys it was the first year
that I had participated and it was just so wonderful I met a lot of different
moms on this particular collaboration and I was blessed by my buddy who gifted
me some wonderful gifts so once again I will make sure to provide that link down
below so that you can check it out and you can also check out Rachel's channel
and then coming in at number five is the secret book swap that is another swap
yeah there's a lot of swaps we like to give each other gifts to this channel
the book swap is also a secret slot but it's seasonal so I host one in winter
spring summer and fall and a few of us who love to read and also participate in
the what we've read series what we do is we just put a box together with some of
the authors or series of the secret channel that we have we there's a form
they fill out and we try to give them give them a book along with some other
little small tokens that our readers will appreciate so that is also very fun
and I also look forward to doing that as well one is coming up for the winter
book swap for 2019 I believe it's gonna be uploaded some time either in January
with February one of the two months but again hit that notification ball so that
you can check it out all right moving it along number 2 list your top 3 favorite
videos you uploaded and share why they are your favorites alright so the top
three are there are so many it's hard to go back and check all of them out so I'm
gonna go with the first one which is the not so newlywed tag that one I am I also
hosted with April from the simple rugged path and I loved this one because um I
had to ask my husband questions and he had to answer it so if I always loved
doing videos with my husband because he is hilarious the both of us together
we're dangerous because we love to we are a joking couple and we
love to joke around and that is that is how we got along so it's always fun when
he comes on the second one is my homeschooling on a budget series and I'm
gonna continue to do that some time around like late spring early summer
because that is when I start to prepare for the new home school year and I had
so much doing that this past summer I'm finding curriculum that is low cost and
products and games and things like that that I just simply loved it and I want
to continue doing that and the third one I am gonna also say is the birth date
box swap I told you we do a lot of swaps here this birthday box swap I do with
April from the simple rugged path and Claire over I could become fun because
all of us have on share birthday in January so one of us is January 3rd the
other is the 4th and I'm the fifth so we always vasti they're not always last
year was the first time we did this because that's when we met and kind of
figured out that our birthdays were all in the same month and consecutively so
we decided to gift each other some gifts far birthday and we're gonna be doing
the same thing this year so make sure to tune in and follow those two channels so
that you can also stay up to date with them as well alright so number three
list the three least favorite videos you upload it and why okay the three least
videos that I did were all on product review videos I really didn't like them
I will it was my first time doing them so I was really like kind of like I'm
not gonna say I'm prepared but it was the first you know the first time that I
did something so they were kind of corny now so I think I think I'm just gonna
take time out of my channel one was an eyelash product review the next one was
in insulated cup that I did and the third one was a hair hair a hair product
by Influenster that they sent me it was a live or a weave whatever the name is
from Oreo I just didn't like those videos
um alright so the number for list V videos you would like to be published
for more views 3 videos that I would love to be published would be a video
that I did really early on in our channel it was called me a song and it
is me and covering Lauren bagels I will trust in you she sang that song so
beautifully I just love it I wish that I can be published it over and over again
because she really out sang that song so I will also leave a link down below so
that you can see it the next video that I would love to be published also are my
Spanish videos because each Friday we do a Spanish lesson and I wish that more

in your homeschool and you can learn a new language while you're at it and the

want to look forward to meeting new ones number nine
that's three channels you wish you those three channels you would like to host a

here oh my goodness oh here we go - of Amy because she had loves to cook just
like me and I would love to do a cooking collaboration with her she has a great
channel check her out she does some great dishes the next one is there's no
place like home because she's into a lot of know cooking and she is so seasoned
when it comes to home school so I really do appreciate her channel so I look
forward to doing a collaboration with her somewhere along the lines of doing
that type of unit study type of thing I will be reaching out to her and the
third one is the purple alphabet now although I did participate in some of
her collaborations Christina is fantastic I would like to co-host a
collab with her so who knows I maybe talk to her as well I you know I'm just
gonna be like hey what's up I'm gonna call out and then number 10 is what
advice can you share with the new youtuber for 2019
listen just if you're gonna start a channel with so many changes that are
going on in YouTube and so many things and so many requirements and thresholds
and yada yada yada it's easy to get discouraged come into this expecting
that you are gonna meet great people it is a great community get your feet wet
start shoot your videos and just enjoy the process
okay it may be a long process and may be a short process it varies from collab
you know it varies from everyone you know from all channels because all
channels go differently but just enjoy the process that's what I would tell
them 11:00 is what is something that happened on or through your channel this
past year that you did not expect to be honest with you I did not expect to be
close to a thousand subscribers even though that I'm like I am a lose there
but it's just seeing the growth and just like I said meeting so many different
people and collaborating with so many different channels and just it's just
fantastic and even the Facebook group which which is a product from this
YouTube community and how it's going so well I just love it I am grateful and
then number eleven and also what I also learned I'm sorry I wrote it here and I
forgot to mention it is that you to the seasonal you're gonna have those moments
where you're gonna want to just not make any more videos you're gonna have those
moments when you just wanna make videos all the time those moments where you're
like ah you know and again it just it's all about enjoying the process okay and
finally um I'm gonna ask you my viewers I would like for you to comment down
