Are parents in the Sioux City area your ideal customers?

If so, I want to help you connect!

a tie dye background and the post title


The Siouxland Families Blog is all about connecting Sioux City area families to local fun. From my experience as a local mom of four kids and from writing and sharing this site, I’ve learned a lot about what Siouxland parents are looking for, and where to find them, and I now have over 9,000 members in my Siouxland Family Friendly Events Facebook group as a result. 

My favorite way to help you reach local parents

One of my favorite options for helping businesses and destinations reach local families is a standalone blog post paired with a "mom POV" social media reel like this one I did with Baby Shark's Big Broadwave Tour and the Sioux City Orpheum. This seems to be a great combination of shortform and longform content to reach your ideal customers in the ways they like consuming content.

Book Reviews

I love reviewing books, especially books by authors from Siouxland or other parts of the Midwest. I usually create a standalone blog post for each book I review, and I often create book review reels on Instagram as well like this one for On Common Ground.  I'll consider any book, but I especially enjoy:
  • children's picture books by Midwest authors
  • cookbooks with Midwest flavor
  • travel books focused on Midwest destinations
  • history books taking place in the Midwest


UGC 

I'm also open to creating UGC or "user generated content", such as unboxing videos, photos or videos of a product being used in my home, or a written or video testimonial sharing my honest opinions of a product. I will never recommend a product that I have not personally tried, but I am open to "gifted" collabs in which I exchange my services as a reviewer and content creator for a sample item or items. 
As an example, please head to Instagram to check out this reel I created in partnership with McDonald's of Siouxland


More options

To discuss one of these ideas or additional advertising options on my blog, Facebook on Instagram feeds, or Facebook group, please send me an e-mail at SiouxlandFamiliesBlog@gmail.com and I will work with you to find options that work for you. If you are looking for other options, I am also happy to recommend my favorite local ad agency that is experienced in both traditional and digital advertising.

I love to see local businesses and entrepreneurs thrive, and I love to connect local families to what they’re looking for. If that sounds like what you’re looking for too, don’t hesitate to contact me!

The Ranch KC offers family-friendly KC BBQ in Belton, MO

UPDATE: The Ranch KC closed in spring 2026. I am leaving my review up for now in case people are still curious about what it was like. You can check out more of my KC faves here. On a recent trip to Kansas City, I had the opportunity to visit a new restaurant, The Ranch KC, and I was so impressed I wanted to share about it with all of you! My former hometown of Kansas City is one of my favorite travel destinations, not just because I love seeing my family and friends there, but also because there are great places to play, shop, eat, and explore. And The Ranch KC is definitely going on my list of great little places to eat in the KC area for future trips too! The Ranch KC is at its heart a barbeque restaurant with a relaxed atmosphere and lots of kid-friendly options, so I definitely recommend it as a great way to get some KC BBQ, especially if you're visiting the area with kids.  Where is The Ranch KC? The Ranch KC is located at 17207 S US Hwy 71 in Belton, ...
