I stumbled across this awesome craft from Planet of the Apels last night and knew we had to do it today. It’s so simple, yet packs a powerful punch. We did our Nativity Scene Craft yesterday and this went hand-in-hand with it. As the nativity craft didn’t have many animals, this was a great craft […]
Handprint Elephant Craft
I’ve seen many versions of this craft on Pinterest. Most don’t have a big pink ear – they just draw on the ear with a sharpie after the gray elephant is dry. Lorelai wanted the pink ear, though, so that’s the route we went. It’s a very simple process that doesn’t really require directions – […]
Handprint Hamster Craft
I think this little guy came out pretty well considering I was just winging the entire thing! after making so many printables for Lore’s animal encyclopedia list, I decided to make the little hamster a handprint craft instead. No fun painting something that’s just a little blob! She loved it though! Materials We Used: Light […]
Paper Roll & Handprint Bald Eagle Craft
Happy Mothers Day! You’d think I’d get to take the day off of crafting, but little Lore was hearing nothing of it. I was able to put her off until around 2pm. At that point, she was getting supplies together herself. We usually keep crafting to the weekdays, but M got to see firsthand how […]
Handprint Fish Craft
We can’t finish up Ocean Week without a fish craft! Lorelai enjoyed seeing her little ocean and fish come together. This one is so easy that directions really aren’t necessary, but for the sake of being thorough, here you go: What We Used: Paper Plate Watercolor Paint Orange Tempera Paint Glue Googly Eye Paintbrushes Marker […]
Handprint Crab Craft
Who knew a crab could be so cute?! Just two handprints, a couple of googly eyes, and a tan crayon to color the sand, and you’ll have yourself an adorable crab. We did a printable crab craft last summer but seeing as we’re on Ocean Week, I figured another craft couldn’t hurt. =)
Footprint Lobster Craft
I’m having such a hard time blogging on time these days! We did this one yesterday morning. It took a few tries to get the footprint right because Lorelai kept smearing it, but I think it came out really cute. We talked about the ocean and how some sea animals don’t have fins (crabs, lobsters, […]
Teaching Taste: Craft & Activity
I know I had originally planned to do the Five Senses theme all in one week, but we just had so much going on last week that were only able to do 2. Since we have some stuff planned this week as well, I’m going to finish up the theme (hopefully) by Friday. So today […]
Bald Eagle Handprint Craft
Hi, hello there. Remember me? It’s been a while, but I’m back! Lorelai and I got our craft on this morning and made a handprint bald eagle craft. I think it turned out really cute, and it’s sooo easy to do. Materials We Used: 1 Paper Plate (or paper if you wish) Paint: Brown, White, […]
Handprint Chick & Owl Crafts
Two for one today! I was going to do separate posts, but since they are both essentially the same craft, it made more sense to do them together. We did the chick yesterday and the owl today, to go along with the Color By Numbers sheet. Lorelai really enjoyed doing this. She helped trace her […]
