Hobby Horse, an impromptu craft

The other night A saw a cartoon where the kid on it had a hobby horse, and he was enchanted by the idea.








Crafty mama and her trusty glue gun to the rescue!

Melting Rainbows

This morning I decided we were going to try the project I found on Julie-K's blog. It was time to cull out the busted crayons anyway! (We only found about 10 in the entire bin that weren't already broken!)

Now I had done crazy crayons before, but only in muffin tins in the oven, and they were cute, but not too practical. This way looked much easier!

Paleo-crafting!

Last week I came across an awesome idea on the Kids Craft Weekly blog. We were going to make FOSSILS! We had some air dry clay on hand that would be just perfect, and TONS of shells, too!

So I gathered the supplies, and the kidlets, and we got our hands dirty!

Reduce, Recycle, Entertain!

I am always reluctant to throw things out. I'm always conscious of the things that come into our home, and the things that go out of it...to compost, to recycle, to the trash...My goal is to make that last as little as possible!
Our youngest is now past the baby food stage...and for the last year, I had been saving all of those little tubs. To what end you might ask...ah...mama had plans! LOL

Puppets are AWESOME!

I try and change up our homeschool preschool program with 3 year old A from time to time. Little guy can only handle so many days of worksheets, LOL...and even home made play dough eventually loses its appeal. Today we made a puppet!
