I’ve been on TikTok for about a week and a half now and all I can say is WOW. And watching moms on TikTok is a whole subject we need to talk about!
If you need a for sure time suck, this is it. And at the same time I can’t get enough.
It’s a spiraling trap of people with no rhythm, the latest music, cooking videos, and skits. The skits are my favorite. I was thinking about how many talented people there are as I was watching this kid who works for Walmart dance like he could be on America’s Got Talent and win!
The beauty of TikTok is that people like him can show off their talent and get millions of eyes on them. Another account I started following is a boy who can really sing – I’m watching, hoping someone discovers him.
Because I’m always on a hunt to find things for my moms out there I searched the hashtag #momsoftiktok and found a treasure trove of moms doing dances they have no business doing and trying to figure out which ones I could pull off at the same time.
Moms are showcasing their cute babies and putting words to their actions. They are shopping, sharing their best deals and latest finds, and singing. It’s so much fun!
I didn’t really get or understand how things were spreading so fast, but the way that you can easily scroll through 50 videos in one sitting made it clear. Now I get why I was seeing dance flash mobs at the grocery store and Target, they were on TikTok. I finally feel like I’m up to speed and love watching moms on TikTok.
To keep you in the loop, I’ve done the hard job of finding some moms you might want to follow on TikTok. You can also follow @mommifaceted while you’re at it, I’m adding some home and cooking tips of my own on there.
There’s a mixture of entertaining, talented, thoughtful and just plain funny. I love being a mom and these women are a delight to share the title with. Let’s just say their creativity keeps me on my toes and I’m addicted.

[…] TikTok is taking over free time as we speak – so why not give them some more music by making your own songs. You can record it after it’s perfected, but before you get to that point – each child can create a new melody and lyrics or they can work together to make up a song. If your kids need some quick inspiration to get them started, pick a few words and have them make a song centered around that word. […]
