The heart behind Hanging with the Kiddos
Creativity makes every celebration more meaningful.
Welcome to Hanging with the Kiddos—a creative space built around celebrating big moments, making things by hand, and helping creativity grow.
I’m Latoya, the founder, wife, mom of three, and creator behind HWTK. What began with making special, budget-friendly celebrations for my own family has grown into a place for DIY party printables, creative projects, party favors, and helpful resources for makers and small creative businesses.
Our story
A love for making memories became something more
Hanging with the Kiddos has always been about the joy of spending time with my three children and making the moments we shared feel special. From holidays and milestones to birthdays and just-because celebrations, I loved finding creative ways to bring an idea to life and make memories together.
Those family moments brought us closer, and they inspired me to share that same feeling with other families. My love for planning, creating, and adding personal touches grew into Hanging with the Kiddos—a place for DIY party printables, creative inspiration, tutorials, and party-favor ideas that help make celebrating feel a little easier and a lot more personal.
As the business has grown, so have the ways I get to create and connect with this community. But the heart of it is still the same: celebrate the people you love, make room for creativity, and enjoy the memories along the way.
Family memories
Birthday celebrations through the years
Just a few snapshots from the birthdays and themed celebrations we’ve enjoyed over the years with all three of my kiddos. Every year brought a different theme, new ideas, and memories I’ll always treasure.
