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 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 officially here! We are beginning the time of year when it…
Egg-cellent Easter Egg Hunt Ideas!
You know how sometimes you do the same thing, year after year, just because it is what you have always done, year after year? That might sound deep – but it’s not. I’m just talking about Easter Egg Hunts. I pride myself in being creative and original. I love coming up with cool ideas for…
The Loveliest Spring Activities for Preschoolers!
Oh goodness do I love spring! I am always completely and utterly ready for spring activities by February. So you can only imagine how ready I am when the snow actually melts and spring weather actually comes late April. But in the meantime – we will fully pretend! I thought it time to share these amazing…
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…
Spring Crafts for 2 Year Olds

How to make Hollow Clay Eggs
Last week we were up North visiting family. We always love visiting and it is one of my boys very favourite places to be. They adore their grandparents so much, love all the neat things to do and see, and usually get to stay up late. Which makes it no surprise that they tend to…
Quick-Dry Rainbow Salt Tray
I am so excited to be partnering with The Pencil Grip to share their awesome new Thin Stix with you. We all have different strengths and different needs, right? One of my strengths, I do believe, is my willingness to let my little ones get messy. It really doesn’t bother me one bit watching them…
Preschool Easter Activities with Plastic Eggs!
Wow, Easter sure snuck up on me this year! Hard to believe it is just a couple of weeks away. Last year, we wound up with tons of plastic Easter eggs (they were needed due to a certain little pup, and certain feathery ladies, who adore Easter candy). After the hunt, I popped them all…
Pretty Pine Cone Garlands
A Photo on Friday, because sometimes all you need is the picture. This pretty pine cone garland was super easy to make. Just dip pine cones into some paint and wrap twine around them to string them altogether! I wrote about this cute craft over on CBC parents. You can read all about it right…
