We all love to sit down and make crafts with our kids, especially during the holidays (okay, maybe not all of us; I’ll admit, I’m not the most crafty mom, but during the holidays I try to make more of an effort). While dyeing Easter eggs is certainly one of the most popular options, there […]
Thing 1 & Thing 2 Puppets – w/ FREE printable pattern
Dr. Seuss’ birthday is coming up, along with National Reading Month! We adore Dr. Seuss books and it’s really hard to pick a favorite, but if I had to, I’d have to say Green Eggs and Ham and The Cat in the Hat are our family’s favorites. Story time is one of our favorite times! […]

Emojis are a current sign of the times. Never would I have thought that we would be communicating using little yellow faces with a wide range of expressions! I do admit, some of them are cute and I do use a handful of them in texts and on Facebook. And I only use a few […]

Simple Cardboard Tube Flower Craft
With springtime comes flowers. With Mother’s Day comes flowers. And my girls are at that age where they are totally into crafts, so we whipped up these simple flowers out of some construction paper and empty toilet paper rolls.
