In the summer we made these yummy (oh so yummy), simple (oh so simple), and healthy (oh so … well, pretty healthy) yogurt melts. Since February has hit hard, with a one-two punch in the face with snow and power outages, I thought I would fight back. How- you might be asking? Well, by using…
Still Tracing Shadows
A photo on Friday, because sometimes all you need is the photo. I might need to rename my Friday posts to “It’s been 3 years and we are still doing the same things” Because quite truthfully, we are. Ben and I were building some shadows the other day with blocks and we decided to trace…
Can You Fix It? (A Photo on Friday)
A photo on Friday, because sometimes all you need is the picture. Happy Friday friends! This week Sam was home with a bug again. One of those bugs that seem to go on and on and on. Near the end of the week he was feeling pretty good, but still had a fever, so he…
A Mapping Scavenger Hunt!
What a weekend! It was full to the brim, and full of snow too. So much so, in fact, that we wound up without internet for quite some time. Given that our phone, television, and pretty much any other electronic entertainment we have runs off internet it was kind of like Little House on the…
15 Fun Things to Do in the Snow!
I love the winter – but I haven’t always. Truthfully, I use to really dislike it. REALLY. But, I love the outdoors and I love having my kids outside. And where I live we have snow for a good 5 months of the year, which is a very long time to dislike something. So a…
The Best of 2015 {A Photo on Friday}
Happy New Year! I am so excited for the year ahead – 2016 is going to be amazing. I have big goals and big plans for this year, I hope you do too. My Dad has always told me to set my sights high, and this year I am really going to listen to him…
Playdough Road Construction
A photo on Friday. Well this little gem was a HUGE hit with Benjamin. A little playdough, whipped up from my favourite no-cook recipe, a few diggers and voila! A playdough road in need of some serious repair. Again and again and again. Hope you have a lovely, festive weekend friends. Let the holiday fun…
Waldorf in Our Home
We are beginning to move full swing into the holiday season and I have been planning the two weeks we will all be at home. With some down time I thought it would be a great chance to plan a few activities with my little ones, and since I do love all things Waldorf, I…
Christmas-y Playdough Play Take 2
A photo on Friday. Happy Friday friends. This week we had some more Christmas-y fun with playdough. The kids were rolling thick and thin ropes of playdough (here is my ultimate no-cook recipe). These ropes were popped on to some white paper candy canes I had cut out. This activity is fabulous for developing and…
Wash Your Hands!
Well I warned you. Yesterday was all business with oodles and oodles of Christmas crafts to get you and your little ones in the holiday spirit. No chitter chatter – just the goods. But as promised, today I have some chitter chatter. Some stories. Some unimportant, just so you know, though you likely didn’t need…
