How To Make Homemade Glitter Silly Putty

Jan 17

Silly putty is a timeless toy that gave me hours of enjoyment as a child. I remember it coming in a red elongated egg shaped container that had the strangest smell. The concept of putty has expanded since I was a child. These days we have silly putty, slime, GAK, Play-Doh, and even play foam. All of these products can be manipulated, folded, squished, and rolled up to form different shapes. Toodie has grown fond of these types of toys so I decided to attempt the re-creation of the classic putty by adding glitter. Everything is better with sparkle!

Valentine Button Heart Canvas #ValentinesDay #ValentineCraft

Jan 13

Pinterest has many wonderful ideas for holiday crafts, including Valentine’s Day! While browsing through pins last week I stumbled upon a project from Southern Lovely. She made a Button Burlap Heart Canvas and I fell in love with the final product. I thought the idea was genius and decided to take it upon myself to create one for my own home. I changed the colors a bit and added a little something extra with the buttons I had left over. Have you fallen in love yet? You can make your own Valentine Button Heart Canvas too!

Holiday Craft: Painted Paper Plate Christmas Tree!

Dec 23

Tis’ the season to get crafty! Christmas is only a few days away and I have a fun holiday project that you can do with your children to get them into the spirit. I came up with this idea after cleaning up our cluttered “wrapping station” and noticed we had quite a few empty boxes to break down for trash pick up. Using paper plates and a brown box flap, I assembled a Christmas tree for Toodie to paint. When she was all done personalizing her tree we hung it by the door to greet guests during the holiday festivities this week.

Paper Plate Thanksgiving Turkey Craft

Nov 08

This week Toodie’s teacher sent home an assignment for each child to bring in their very own Thanksgiving turkey. It couldn’t have came at a better time because I have been doing a lot of pinning lately & discovered many holiday related Pint-er-esting finds. You wouldn’t believe how many turkey arts & crafts projects are floating around the internet! Thanksgiving will be here before we know it and I found an adorable paper plate turkey craft that can be used to decorate the home and classroom. It has a few different components to it but overall it is a very easy craft to do with your child. Toodie & I both enjoyed working on this together as a team.

Toddler Craft: Handprint Owl With Fingerpaint

Jul 02

Looking for an easy Summer time craft to do with your toddler? Sometimes all you need is a few bottles of finger paint, colored construction paper, and a simple white poster board. A paintbrush isn’t necessary for this project but you may need it to create your tree stem. Your little one’s fingers will do most of the work! It may get a bit messy but I guarantee this will be a ton of fun and also a great way for them to create a picture based on their creativity.

Monthly Crafts For Kids: Wummelbox Review

Mar 03

Hello friends! It has been a while since I had an exciting find to share with you. This month I was given the opportunity to review a new monthly subscription service for children. Meet the Wummelbox! The Wummelbox comes filled with arts & crafts projects that inspire creativity, imagination, and exploration. Cool fact? It originated in Germany and is actually known there as “Wummelkiste.” It is geared towards children between the ages of 3 to 8. Each crafty project includes an illustrated booklet of directions along with just about all of the supplies required. There is also a “wummel” indicator on the front of each booklet that tells the difficulty of each craft and if parental assistance is needed. Between all three projects, Toodie was able to do at least one on her own while I was happy to help with the others. I noticed she was very intrigued by this box. While she always gets giddy when one of these packages arrive at our doorstep, she seemed extra curious about this one!
