My girls are YouTube junkies. From toy reviews to makeup tutorials, they are watching videos more often than I’d like to admit. Like so many other families, we woke up one morning and decided to start our own YouTube channel. If these other families can do it, so could we, right?! So last year, we posted our first video. We waited for the subscribers to come pouring in and just knew that the girls would be instant celebrities. [Insert cricket noises].
It literally took over a month to build up to 100 subscribers and we definitely have more than 100 close friends and family so… If I’m being completely honest, YouTube is not as easy as so many make it seem. Even if you post videos that you and your family think are hilarious and fun, it doesn’t mean that anyone will ever see them. Kids videos don’t just magically appear on YouTube Kids. But we post. We wait. And we try to figure out what in the world we’re doing wrong.
The other day, I logged into our account and found that one of their videos had almost a thousand views and I was honestly shocked. While it doesn’t compare to those videos that get a million views, a thousand is a lot for us, considering we are lucky to reach 100. So it was pretty exciting and it got us thinking that maybe were giving up too soon. Maybe the key to being a successful YouTuber isn’t just luck, but hard work and persistence.
So, in honor of our one year YouTube anniversary, I wanted to share our top three YouTube videos and promise that we will be posting more videos, more often! Subscribe and let us know what you think! The girls love to hear from fans!

Hello There!
Hi! I’m Heather, Mom of 3, professional snack opener, the only person who knows where everything is in my house and part-time magician (I can turn a bunch of candy into a gift basket and everyone thinks it’s amazing). I share a mix of parenting moments, easy recipes, crafts, and DIY home decor projects.
Around here, we love turning ordinary stuff into extraordinary gifts, from candy box baskets and birthday punch boards to homemade advent calendars and other crafty chaos that somehow always works out.
Welcome to The Super Mom Life — where the projects are fun, the coffee is strong, and the laughter is pretty much required for survival. Don't forget to follow us on social media!
What what all toys they make nowadays! Very cute video. Your kids are adorable!
Whoot Whoot… Happy one year Anniversary!!!!! Your girls seem to have sooooooo much personality!!!! You seem like a fun bunch!
Thank you for the reminder that it is important to work hard ad be persistent and not give up too soon. That is a great lesson and one that can be applied to many areas!
Wishing you all much success!
Heather (yup, same name as you :))
Vlogging is now the new trend. Not sure if I can do this. The videos looks so nice too! How do you edit it? Not a super techie person so I still need to learn about this.
Congrats on starting a Youtube channel! It’s definitely a lot harder now to build a following because there is so much competition!
You guys have such fun and cute videos! I do look forward to seeing more content!
My kids absolutely love Youtube videos. It’s awesome that your kids have taken a go at it.
Congrats on that 1000 views! You must be so proud about it. I don’t have a YouTube channel but what you say is similar to what I see in my IG feed, getting followers that truly care about what you do is so hard!
