Are you grossed out with the thought of using toilet rolls in crafts for kids? Would you be okay to build a snowman craft with a toilet roll? If not, close your eyes and pretend I am using a paper towel roll. (But I’m not … and I may have dug it out of the…
Winter Art for 2 Year Olds
My baby is now 2 and fully into the crafting that goes on daily around here. I wrote about 50 crafts for 2 year olds recently – crafts that I love for toddlers because they focus on the process, not the end result. I thought I would do the same sort of post, but specifically…
Christmas Art for Kids

Gorgeous Fall Leaves Crafts
I feel as though I need to begin this post on Fall leaves crafts with an apology. I am sorry if it feels as though I am rushing past summer and right into Fall. I am not meaning to – I am just a bit of a planner. Well, I suppose that isn’t even exactly…

Easter Egg Name Puzzles
Another holiday approaching means another name puzzle on the blog! I will do a round up once I have finished my first year of blogging with all of our name puzzles – like this Christmas tree one, and the Halloween pumpkin. For our Easter name puzzle I took some inspiration from Hands on as we…
St Patrick’s Day Craft: Pepper Stamping!
We really don’t celebrate St Patrick’s day. I said it. The cat is out of the bag. I am a Mom who blogs about activities for kids and I don’t celebrate St. Patrick’s Day. I am not anti-leprechaun at all (in fact, if anything I would be completely pro-leprechaun). It is just that March is…
