Trending Post: Fall Crafts Round-Up
Teaching my daughter about the life cycle of frogs has been a fun task, mainly because she is obsessed with frogs right now! My parents have this fish pond in their back yard and she played near that thing the entire time we were up there (almost a month!). I bought her a little net…
Having grown up and lived on a farm for most of my life, it should come as no surprise that farm crafts have a special place in my heart. While my daughter was born and raised in a city, we go home to the country to visit my family every year. She loves everything about…
Another owl? Yes, another owl. If you don’t know, we’re just a bit owl & butterfly obsessed! Lorelai and I crafted this paper plate owl last week after supper when things were winding down. It was very simple and came out really cute! Materials You’ll Need: 2 Paper Plates Brown Paint + paintbrushes Scissors Glue…
I have mentioned this before, but I have a serious foam sticker problem. If I see a tub on sale, I have to get it. I mean really, who can pass up a 100-count foam sticker bucket for only $2? Not this girl! Anyway, I am always looking for a way to use our foam…
I have taken the challenge of 100 days of play with my daughter! The challenge is to play and connect with your children everyday while doing something they love. My daughter is 5.5, and her favorite way to play right now is through games. Board games, card games, pretend games… you name it, she loves…
It’s that time of year again! The holidays are upon us, and you may be wondering what to put in your child’s stocking this year. Break away from the hygienic toothbrushes/socks/underwear, and choose the colorful and fun route! Not only is it fun, but a crafty stocking can be done very inexpensively. Here are a…
Rainforest week was a fun one! I wish we’d had more time to finish all of the crafts and activities I’d had planned. I’m definitely putting this one down as a repeat in the future! It’s so vast that it could probably encompass a few weeks’ worth of activities. What We Did This Week: Printable…
So I’m seeing a pattern in our weeks. We do great with our routine Monday through Wednesday, but come Thursday and Friday, we get busy and have to finish up our plans over the weekend. That’s what happened to us this week. Thursday we went to an awesome storytime at a local bookshop and then…
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…
I’m starting up a weekly theme for each week to help us focus our preschool activities and crafts.You will find a link to both the recap page for each week and the individual posts. The recap page is good to bookmark (or pin) for future reference. Individual pages will take you to the recipes, printables,…

You will see the current/upcoming holiday in the left column with all of the crafts listed beneath. In the right column, there is a grouping of…

Yesterday was a big fail when it came to my to-do list. I sat down yesterday morning and wrote this long, detailed list a page long of things I had to do. I got maybe two of the things done… I was just really lacking motivation! In the evening, Lorelai asked to paint so we…
It’s been over a week since my last entry. Last weekend I was under the weather and just feeling blah, so I stayed offline for most of the weekend and beginning of the week. Lore and I didn’t do much craft-wise. I bought her a sketch book and she’s been having a lot of fun…
I made this printable this evening while waiting for my homemade chicken noodle soup to season on the stove. Lorelai has gotten attached to this book by Eric Carle. Actually, we’re huge Eric Carle fans in this house – we have almost every book of his. I love the style of his animals. We’ve been…
My friend Heather recently did a craft with her girls that focused on painting leaves. I thought that was a great idea, because around here, there aren’t a ton of colorful leaves – at least not yet. We have these hedge bushes around the apartment that have some nice green leaves… so we stole a…
It’s Friday evening and I’m relaxing on the couch surfing the internet and watching my husband kick butt on his favorite XBOX 360 game. In his defense, he hasn’t played in ages and I actually enjoy spectating. Lorelai is tucked into her bed with her Baby Doggy (blanket) and Protector Unicorn. Did I mention that…
I had the opportunity to go out and take photos this morning… so where did I go? The farm, of course! But instead of taking pictures of the barns and hills, I went to my usual haunts of the roadside brush to get shots of the weeds, vines, and miscellaneous other wild goodness. I love…
