Thanksgiving Turkey Craft
Did you know a group of turkeys is called a rafter? It's also called a gang. I'm not sure what the difference is between the two. Maybe it has to do with wild turkeys vs. domestic ones? Anyway, I made this rafter of turkeys in anticipation of Thanksgiving this year. I am hoping … [Read more...]
Pointillism Painting with Pom Poms
There's a show on Amazon that is an instant hit in our house! Creative Galaxy is about a little alien boy named Arty who travels around with his pal Epiphany (I loved this little sidekick) solving problems with art! It really plays towards a child's natural inclinations to … [Read more...]

Back to School Ideas
This year I had a great teacher gift for Henry's Kindergarten teacher, but it wasn't really worthy of its own blog post. I wanted to share it with you, though, as I think it's an easy idea and something that a teacher would actually use after school is out. So I pulled together … [Read more...]

Patriotic Paper Medallions: Vol. 2, Day 81
I'm going to be totally honest with you. This is a terrible tutorial. I saw something similar to these patriotic paper medallions on Huckleberry Love and they were just stunning. The colors were bright and crisp and the paper was so clean and … [Read more...]
Sponge Bombs-Easy Summer Activity for Kids
It was HOT today! We are in the middle of a little heat wave, which usually happens for a couple of weeks in May, and today I was looking for something to cool off the boys. They love to play with the hose, but I don't love to pay the high water bills that come with that. I … [Read more...]
How to Dye Coffee Filters
I had originally planned to make some of those beautiful flowers made from dyed coffee filters that you see all over Pinterest and put them on the mantel with all my other Spring decorations, but the season seems to be running away with me, and now I'm already looking … [Read more...]
Kool-aid Play Dough: Vol. 2, Day 65
A few weeks ago, Henry came home with the best play dough we've ever had. It smelled SO good and it was perfect: soft and pliable without being dry. The color in the store-bought kind always leaves marks all over my counter, and it's so "wet" it sticks to the inside of … [Read more...]

Easter Egg Paper Craft: Vol. 2, Day 58
This cute little Easter egg art for my mantel is the craft that almost wasn't. Have you ever had one of those days where everything just kept going wrong? I was searching Pinterest for paper crafts to do with my kids to send to their great-grandma (Mimi) in an … [Read more...]
