Ever since my children could stand on a stool or sit on my lap while I sewed, they have made gifts. December in our house means we’re stirring beeswax, sewing rope into baskets, decorating cookies, and designing stuffed friends. We’re painting ornaments and assembling scrapbooks. It’s in their blood. Homemade gift-giving was a big part […]
My teenager loves to create. There’s rarely a day when she’s not making digital art, clay figurines, or doodling. When she’s in her art zone, life is good! When she’s not, boredom often sets in, and there is nothing to do becomes her mantra. Yesterday was one of these days. My daughter’s muse was on […]
Spring is one of our favorite times to pull out the craft bins. Plants and critters inspire us, and to be perfectly honest, I like messy things to happen outside as much as possible. The woods and yard also offer all sorts of free materials. There are no directions or rules. Nature crafts invite us […]
“How do you (insert something I have no idea how to do)?” If you’re a parent or are around children, you are going to be asked a lot of questions, and I can pretty much guarantee you won’t always know how to do _______. We can only know so much. Our lack of knowledge doesn’t […]
Shopping for the holidays used to stress me out! Over the years I’ve found ways to keep holiday giving simple, and it’s actually become a lot of fun. I love making many of our gifts and focusing on a few things makes the season a lot less stressful. I try to keep these things in […]
Today, on a walk with our dog, a flock of Canadian Geese flew overhead. As I paused and watched them go by, I wondered about the lead goose- was it always in front. Turns out geese take turns leading the way. When the lead goose needs a break, it moves to the back where […]
A couple of months ago, my eight-year-old asked if I’d give her art lessons. She’s been in love with drawing for years but was resistant to any formal instruction. Every couple days, upon her request, we sat down together. She wanted to learn how to shade and how to make a human look human. […]
How do frogs breathe underwater? How much water does a tree drink in a day? Why do hedgehogs curl up in a ball? What would happen if we cut down all the trees? Children ask great questions! They are explorers. They smell the flowers, spot teeny tiny bugs, stop to watch bunnies, butterflies, and deer, […]
Our family vacation to Idaho begins in just a few days. We’re heading west to see my folks and sister, to check out Craters of the Moon National Park, Sawtooth National Forest, Redfish Lake, and all the things Eagle and Boise have to offer. We’re excited! In preparation for the long plane and car rides, […]
A body biography invites students to recall what they know about a character and turn their findings into a life-sized version.
What mother doesn’t love a poem from a child they love. I’d take one any day. Don’t get me wrong, pasta necklaces, coupon books, and playdough projects are sweet, but a poem is something to keep forever. There are all sorts of ways to create a Mother’s Day poem. Below you’ll find prompts for kids of […]
My children could watch baking soda and vinegar explode all day. Most kids could. It’s fun to watch things bubble, change color, and switch states of matter. Do you know what’s even more fun? Eating your experiments! Edible Chemistry = science + snacks. There is nothing better! Cooking is one of our go-to activities when […]
