I am excited to partner with KORXX today to bring you this post which combines a few of my favourite things. I feel as though this post should be written in song … “Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens, bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens, brown paper packages tied up with strings, these…
Math-U-See Giveaway!
Happy Thanksgiving! I know not everyone is celebrating today, but here in Canada we are, so I wanted to take this opportunity to say thank you. I love you guys! I love getting your comments, messages, and knowing that you are here with me. I am truly grateful for you and your support of this…
Stump and Nails Geoboard
I am always, always cold. I also hardly ever, ever wear socks. The combination of these two competing forces means that come winter we best have a lot of firewood. The conversation about how much firewood we should have always goes something like this: “I think 6 cords really would be enough. The neighbours have…
A Learning-Filled Scavenger Hunt!
Do you know what makes me really happy? Well, lots of things actually. But one of those things? When I find a fun-filled activity that my boys love and it is also full of learning. Really good learning too – vocabulary, math, fine and gross motor development – all the good stuff! I am so…
Bean Bag Toss on the Stairs
A photo on Friday, because sometimes all you need is the picture. I don’t know why I have not utilized our stairwell for kids activities more. Good grief! They are perfect for my little ones to climb up and down tuckering their little beings right on out. We popped some numbers up there recently for…

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…
Christmas Tree Counting Fun
Can you believe Christmas is only 11 days away? How did that happen!! I’m not even close to ready. But I’m taking it all in stride. Everything that needs to get done will get done, and everything else – well if it happens it’s a bonus. I am excited about a few little traditions that…
Learn about Shapes with Snowman Crafts!
I was looking for some winter crafts yesterday, and guess what I found? A post I did last year that I had forgotten all about – oodles of snowman crafts! Perhaps it is just what you were looking after as well? Here is my original post friends: We have had our first snow flurries. We…
5 Little Pumpkins
I have said it many a time, but I will say it again – I just love celebrating holidays. And there is nothing quite like celebrating holidays with little ones. So we really live it up. And we start super early. October 1st saw our very first Halloween craft this year, and we have been…
