Trending Post: Fall Crafts Round-Up
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 –…
Lorelai crafted this one yesterday…. all by herself! She painted, cut out, and glued everything all on her own. =) The printable itself is really simple and straight forward. If you know your child will have a hard time missing the white circles, color the inside of the circles with white crayon. The waxy crayon…
I made a bunch of printables last night and Lorelai was happily surprised this morning when she woke up and saw them sitting on the table. She chose to do the rhino first, and she chose to paint him orange. Only my kid! =) Print below. Open Rhino Printable Facts About Rhinos Black rhinos are…
First, please excuse the really bad process pictures. My apartment has 0 natural light, it was way too hot to craft outside, and my big flash is out of batteries. I had to use my on-camera flash which is pretty much useless. Anyway, I’ve been slacking on patriotic crafts this year. And, since the 4th…
Open Deer Printable Isn’t this little fawn the cutest little thing? Once again, this is another of Lore’s requests from her animal encyclopedia (she made me a list). She didn’t just want any deer, she wanted a Bambi-like deer (baby/fawn), and this is what I came up with. Note, on the printable, there is a…
We crafted this adorable handprint sunflower craft a few days ago. We did a painted version of this one a while back, but I think I like this one much better. Materials We Used: 3 Pieces of Yellow Construction Paper 1 Piece of Black Construction Paper (or a paper plate, painted) 1 piece of Green…
Cinco de Mayo is right around the corner, not that we really celebrate it much. I usually do a craft or two with Lorelai because it’s fun. Last year we did a paper plate maraca, which looked awesome but could have been better (use bowls!). This year we did this sombrero craft with some of…
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. =)
I’m so behind! This past week, Lorelai met up with some of her friends from the playgroup we’re a part of and they all did some cute and easy Easter crafts! We did a variation of the handprint chick last year and it was a big hit. She was really proud of her creations and…
Now that I have a few minutes to actually blog, here are the other two crafts we did yesterday morning. The first is a stop sign. Lorelai used the same white crayon/watercolor method that she did in this craft. You just have to make sure the crayon is colored on thick enough so the watercolor…
So today is all about SMELL, as I mentioned in the previous post. I read about this one on a preschool website I stumbled across late one night last week. Unfortunately I didn’t bookmark it, but I’m still looking and will give credit once I find it. Anyway, I thought it would be PERFECT for…
Here is a list of our most-used craft supplies. click on the pictures to be directed to shopping site Craft Supplies Explained Printer – A good printer is always necessary if your child loves to do printable crafts. Which mine does, hence this blog. I bought a $20 printer from Walmart last…

Lorelai was so excited about this Santa craft, which you can obviously see in the first picture above. She was “ho-ho-ho’ing” the entire time she was making it, LOL! It’s very simple to make and probably doesn’t need a how-to, but since it only takes a second to write it… enjoy! Materials We Used 1…
Okay, I know what you’re thinking. That looks more like a mutant penguin than an owl, but that’s my fault for choosing black for the toilet paper roll. Lorelai wanted to use gray feathers and me being lazy, didn’t want to mix up gray paint. So a word of advice: don’t use black paint unless…
How cute is this craft?! I saw it on a friend’s facebook and had to steal the idea (thanks, Amanda!). Lorelai was sitting next to me when I was scrolling through pictures and she immediately decided that she had to do this one. She loves our craft time. =) Materials We Used: Toilet Paper Roll…

As Lorelai would say, Happy Friday! I hope everyone has had a great week and will have an even better weekend. To my friends and family on the east coast, stay safe!! We are all praying for minimal damage for everyone. Hurricanes/Tropical Storms are so scary. This afternoon, after we got home from our errands,…
We have been so incredibly successful at staying busy that we haven’t had any time to do any crafts! I have one or two planned before our trip next week, but I doubt we’ll be able to get to this one. I’ve been sitting on this one for a while – I asked if anyone…
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…
