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…
A Bathtub Water Wall {A Photo on Friday}
A photo on Friday, because sometimes all you need is the picture. 5e36518d431346adfe4870d159c79482a1815ae0046e99fb20 Happy Friday friends! I am sharing with you something I am shocked I am brave enough to share on “the line” (have you seen that movie? Hilarious — I believe it’s called The Internship… though none of this is actually relevant …)…
Playing with Volume in the Rice Table!
A photo on Friday, because sometimes all you need is the picture. Or a sneaky photo collage which could be classified as only one picture (it really could …trust me. I won the discussion with my husband – and yes, in our discussions you either win or lose — well, actually I either win or…
2 Step VIBRANT Rainbow Rice {A Photo on Friday}
A photo on Friday, because sometimes all you need is the picture! Today I thought I would share a picture of some freshly dyed rainbow rice. I have been making rainbow rice for about 8 years now, and I must say – I’ve got it down to a fine science. As in, I have found…
Learning with Siphons in the Water Table
If you should happen to have an old garden hose, or a spare garden hose, have I got an activity sure to keep your little ones happy, learning, and cool this summer! Cut up that water hose and turn it into a siphon. I wrote all about it over on CBC parents last week. My…
Frozen Hats {A Photo on Friday}
A photo on Friday, because sometimes all you need is the picture. And this is a cute one. This is how a two year old looks when wearing a frozen hat … We made frozen hats by popping a wet sun hat in the freezer. We used hats that the boys had been wearing after…
When a Hen goes Broody …
It was early last week, just minutes after my children had headed to let the chickens out. They bursted through the front door, all talking a mile a minute, and for a split second I wasn’t sure if their news was about disaster or excitement. I took a moment to assess – beaming. Their little…
A Pea Trellis Fort
These little ones of mine do love their forts. And in the garden, their very most favourite thing to eat is the snap peas. So I thought that combining the two was just the thing to do! Sounds simple enough, except for the fact that my forts generally fall down quickly. And except for the…
Frozen Snack!
We were nestled in a few days ago on a chilly, drizzly day. The type of day that just makes you sleepy. The type of day absolutely perfect for snuggling little ones while watching a show or two. While my littlest had his nap, me and my middle-guy were watching a Sid the Science Kid….
