DIY Homeschool Preschool Daily Activity Calendar {with homemade magnets!}
This shop is part of a social shopper marketing insight campaign with Pollinate Media Group® and Office Depot, but all my opinions are my own. #pmedia #inspirestudents http://my-disclosur.es/OBsstV Getting prepared to start homeschool preschool can be a daunting task, but with a daily activity calendar and some fun magnets you can keep on track! When I recently made the decision to start homeschool preschool with my three year old daughter Hazel, I felt a little overwhelmed. The reasons for going with homeschool preschool included Hazel not yet being potty trained, the cost, and the fact that she just turned three this summer. I felt another year at home would be…

Boho Woodland Animal Collage Art for Kids
This shop is part of a social shopper marketing insight campaign with Pollinate Media Group® Elmer’s and Wet Ones, but all my opinions are my own. #pmedia #CraftandCleanUp http://my-disclosur.es/OBsstV Today, I am starting a new series called Crafting with Your Kids, which is of course, one of my favorite things to do as a mom! This series will consist of projects that parents and children can collaborate on together to make unique works of art or decor for your home. Up first, are these “boho style” woodland animal collages that my three year old daughter, Hazel, and I made for the playroom. Since being a mom is busy, I don’t have…

Father’s Day Gift Jar: “Dad’s Stache” Free Printable!
So, call me cheap, but I am always trying to think of inexpensive, diy projects for my husband for Father’s Day. I mean, he has only been a dad for three years, so I am still “new” at figuring how to approach this holiday with him. He is seriously the hardest person to get gifts for. Last year, I completely cleaned and organized a section of our basement so that he could use it as a workbench for projects and what not. That was nice until it became a storage spot awhile later. Sigh. This year I thought that it would be fun for the kids to give him a…

DIY Outdoor Water Table for Kids
Summer is just around the corner, and the little ones will be wanting to play all day outdoors! If yours are anything like mine, they already do. Even on the rainy days. We have yet to invest in too many store bought outdoor toys. We did purchase the Little Tikes Endless Adventures Swing Along Castle (affiliate link*) for Hazel’s first birthday and both kids absolutely love it. The rest of the toys we have outside, have mostly been given to us by neighbors or purchased at thrift stores, such as the playhouse, ride on vehicles and Cozy Coup. Earlier this spring, I had been contemplating buying the kids an outdoor water and sand…

Recycled TP Roll Easter Bunny and Egg Stamps {Kid’s Craft}
I know that Easter is coming up quickly, and I have a super fun and easy craft to do with the little ones this week. This project is perfect for toddlers or preschoolers. I have one of each, and they both loved it! One day when I was collecting a bunch of toilet paper rolls to put in the recycling, I started looking at one and wondered if I could make it into an ear for a bunny (what??? yeah, I am weird, I know). I did another one and realized it would probably work to make a bunny stamp. (My creative brain, seriously, never stops working even in the midst…

DIY Vintage Inspired Easter Baskets
The month of April feels like it is flying by so fast. I can hardly believe Easter is just around the corner. I have a fun and, hopefully, inspiring diy project for you today. It’s all about bringing some vintage charm to those Easter baskets! Now, these ideas may not be practical for the kiddos who only prefer high tech gadgets and candy, or very young children, but if you have a child with an old soul, this may be just the thing to make their heart fill with delight. I know, I would have loved a basket full of pretty, vintage goodies. (I would enjoy one now, in fact!) Or…
