Making bracelets is really a staple in any childhood, isn’t it? I know I spent hours and hours creating DIY bracelets of every kind when I was a kid. My friends and I even set up a bracelet stand one summer, selling our creations to the neighbourhood! I wanted to find some simple bracelets my…
Wild-Child Wind Spinner
There are an awful lot of trees in our new house. Sammy recently made a birdhouse with his Papa, and it made me think about this post from last spring. I think it is time to make some more wind spinners with my wild child. Here is my original post, in case you would like…
The Easiest Woven Baskets
It’s that time of year for all of those fresh, local berries and goodies! We have been visiting our local farmer’s market each week and each week I am so thankful that there are gardeners far better than I.

8 Creative and Unique Preschool Spring Crafts
I keep saying spring is on it’s way. Eventually I am going to be right. It is hard not to take it personally when I say, “Spring is right around the corner” and Mother nature sends me a snow storm and -30 overnight. But I am holding strong – spring is on it’s way (though…
A Blossoming Spring Craft for Kids!
Winter is almost over! As much as I strive to enjoy each day and try to welcome the rhythm of the seasons – winter is a tough season for me … the grey, the wet, the cold, the cold …. the cold. But Spring is practically here! We are beginning the time of year when…
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…
