The NEW Look of This Reading Mama

By thisreadingmama 15 Comments

Oh, I’m over the moon thrilled to show you something today that’s been happening behind the scenes for a few weeks! This Reading Mama has a NEW LOOK!

The best part? The things you’re looking for will be EASIER TO FIND! Woohoo! My number one goal when working with my designer was to make the site easier to navigate and easier for readers to find my most searched for posts and printables.

Let’s take a quick tour together!

Welcome to the New Look of This Reading Mama

 

This Reading Mama’s New Look

The first thing you’ll probably notice is the handy-dandy double navigation bar at the top. The dark blue links all take you to my most popular categories, while the teal one is great if you don’t know where to start or need to find my shop.

quickly search categories

If you search under Alphabet, for example, you will get all the posts I’ve written that are categorized as Alphabet Activities.

 

find popular posts within categories

But even better is that my most popular Alphabet Posts will pop up at the top in my sidebar, just in case that’s what you’re looking for. (This is true of every category.) How cool is that?!?

 

visual navigation bar

If you’re a visual person, there’s also a visual category bar, which takes you to all my posts in that category. Love it! {Note: The visual version will only appear on my home page, but you can still access the dark blue navigation bar on any page.}

 

 

search bar - search for specific things

If you’re looking for something specific, you can always type it right into the search bar, which is located right above my smiley face. 🙂

 

 

most recent posts

If you like the look of a traditional blog, with the posts {like I do}, keep scrolling because there you will find all of my most recent posts!

 

sidebarlinks

Included in the sidebar are also tabs that lead to other popular places on the blog, so be sure to check them out. And if you missed anything, there are also LOADS of links at the very bottom of the blog, too! Woohoo!

 

So, there’s your very quick tour of This Reading Mama. Please let me know if you have any questions and I’ll be happy to help you find your way around!
