My blog features the activities and projects I do with my children. I have 3 children age 11, 7 and 4. I watch an infant, plus my 4 year old nephew! This blog highlights the activities/projects we create during the week. It also provides a way for me to organize all of the activities and projects we do, and it is a great way to share the projects/activities. I hope this blog will become a great resource and inspire creativity.

Materials Needed: white paint, paintbrush, cardboard tube, black permanent marker, orange chenille stem, fleece, scissors, glue, 3 buttons, old and clean sock!
