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…
45 of the CUTEST Fall Crafts for Kids
Autumn is just around the corner, so let’s start things off right with a great big list of easy Fall Crafts for Kids, shall we? There is just something about fall that brings out the crafting side of me… perhaps it’s the beautiful colours that inspire me, or the cooler weather that makes me want…
A Fall Leaf Potato Stamp
Oh, the good old potato stamp – it’s been a while, but we are back at it! I can’t for the life of me remember why we haven’t done this craft in so long. It was so fun, perfect for all 4 of my kids (um … and Mama, too) and they turned out so…
50 Perfect Crafts for 2 Year Olds!
The other morning I broke out the paints for my Sam and Madeline. Benjamin, who is 21 months decided he was no longer happy to paint with water and instead (suggested calmly) that he also use some paint. This got me thinking of crafts for 2-year-olds! While I cannot believe that my baby will be…

Nothing. Thursday: get those parkas out – nothing. Friday the snow finally arrived! But for some reason not…

We do a lot of make believe play at home. Madeline loved it when she was a bit smaller, and Sammy, at the age of three, has just started his love for make believe too. Today I thought I would share an imaginative play activity that we love right now – and it could not…

Winter Art Activity: Crayon Resist Winter Landscape
I love the simplicity of crayon resist art. It seems when the weather gets cold we turn to winter art projects a lot. Crayon resist is definitely one of my go to art projects for kids – so easy and so pretty. We first did this winter art project 5 years ago! At that time…
Winter Art for Toddlers
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…
