Shaving Cream + Food Coloring = Awesome Shower Paint

rebeca  Friday, January 20, 2012

I found this idea on Pinterst (of course) by a blogger at Having Fun at Home. It’s the perfect activity for fighting cabin fever. Or, in my case, it’s great for calming down and bringing focus to a hyperactive preschooler.  It was incredibly simple to set up and even easier to clean…yet it kept my [...]

“Oh, The Places You’ll Go” End of School-Year Tradition

It’s not too much longer till the school year comes to a close, so I wanted to share this amazing idea I found on…you guessed it…Pinterest. You all know the book Oh, The Places You’ll Go from Dr. Seuss. It’s a great graduation gift. But, Lisa from Lisa’s Workshop suggests grabbing a copy when your kid is young. At the end of each school year, give it to your child’s teacher to sign or write a note. When you’re child graduates (hard to think of!), you’ll have a lovely gift to give him/her. Lisa has even included some lovely tags in her blog post, so make sure to go check it out.

For more clever ideas like this, make sure to follow me on Pinterest.
