About Confessions of Parenting

Hi, I’m Michele – Mom of 5 and Creator of Confessions of Parenting

Helping families connect through simple, screen-free fun.

Michele Tripple, creator of Confessions of Parenting with family

When my husband and I got married, we blended our families—and discovered how important it is to intentionally build connection. What started as simple ways to help us bond—like conversation cards at dinner or printable games in the backyard—became our favorite family traditions.

Over time, I realized these tools tremendously help all families create meaningful moments, no matter their shape or size. That’s why I started Confessions of Parenting—to share simple, fun resources that bring families closer together, one laugh at a time.
