Christmas is such a great season to focus on sharing kindness and love towards others. So today, I thought it would be fun to share one of our favorite Christmas traditions: Kindness Christmas Stockings. What are Kindness Christmas Stockings, you ask?
A Time Capsule is a great way to teach kids about documenting important events in their lives. Colette has created a printable so you and the kids can make time capsules in a jar this summer with a clean, clear (and cute!) label.
The weather is finally starting to warm up (hallelujah!) and before we know it everyone will be breaking out the shorts and flip flops! Time to start thinking about shaving those legs again and doing something about that chipped toenail polish! 😉 If you’re looking for a fun summer craft to do with you kids, check out these fun ways to dress up flip flops. Turn those plain Jane flips flops into something unique and attention-grabbing!
recently, something special happened at our house! My daughter lost her first tooth! Shortly after that, she lost her second! I feel like that first tooth is such a rite of passage and there are so many things to consider about the whole tooth fairy thing like: what is the going rate these days for teeth? (seriously, choose wisely on that or you’ll end up broke). And what do we put the tooth in? Does the tooth fairy leave a note? So many tooth fairy ideas to consider!
Hey everyone! It’s Kari from Paper Wings again, with a fun easy craft for Easter! These fabric mache Easter baskets make great gifts and decor as well as being great Easter treat baskets for the kids. It can be a bit messy with the Mod Podge, so you can do this outside on the sidewalk/driveway, or on a protected surface inside. But what a great excuse to be outside in this spring weather, right?!
Today’s Family Night lesson is about treasure–something that leprechauns know all about! How do we find our own treasure? What type of treasure should we be seeking? Is it a pot of sparkly gold or something even more valuable? Let’s find out what this heavenly treasure hunt is all about!
Today I’m sharing these sweet surprise treat carrots! They are super easy to make (as always, because I love super easy!), a fun way to hide Easter treats and a great project your kids can help you make.
Well the leaves have all fallen, leaving the trees bare and winter-cold, why not snap off a few small branches and create this easy, kid friendly Valentine craft?
I always love when my kiddos can help me create holiday decor pieces, it just adds so much!
Day 4 of 12 ~ Theme: THE GRINCH ~ 12 Days of Christmas Family Fun
How can you not love The Grinch? How fun would it be to celebrate his new-found Christmas spirit with some Grinch crafts, recipes, and activities?!? Be sure to share any of your photos with us using hashtag #12daysofchristmasfamilyfun. Have a magical December family day!
Hi all! Sierra here from The Blue Cottage! Since this season is the perfect time of the year to focus on gratitude, I’m showing you how to make a cute little gift idea you can share with a neighbor, friend, teacher or even your mailman/lady to let them know how much you appreciate them in your life. My kids helped me put these sweet little hot chocolate snow globes together, so it’s a great activity to involve the whole family and it only takes 3 easy steps!
Crafting with candy is a sure fire way to get kids wanting to get creative. When candy is involved, I know my kids will be up for anything. 🙂 My son is a builder. He tells me that all he wants to do is build. Knowing his love for building (and candy) we used some Airheads candy to make a Snoopy Dog house.
For homeschool, we learned all about bees. Have you ever learned about bees?? Holy smokes, those things are AMAZING. In a future post, I’ll share with you some of my favorite products for teaching kids about bees. But in the meantime, I wanted to share this project with you… making BEESWAX CANDLES WITH KIDS.
These beeswax candles make great gifts (free printable gift tag included!), home decor, and fun memories of making them with the family.
