The boys were really excited to get a new sensory bin. Logi-bear was particularly excited because his favorite color is red, with pink and orange coming in close second. I saw this great idea to use Ice Cream Salt as a sensory material from Twodaloo and I knew it would be perfect for our V-Day…
I was trying to think of a fun present for Valentines day that didn’t include candy, and I know play dough is always a hit with the kids. I thought little play dough pops, like cake pops, would be adorable. I used this play dough recipe from The Crafty Crow and was very happy with…

I think marshmallows are one of the best inventions. Ever. This is one area where my kids absolutely agree. So it’s no surprise that they were totally up for marshmallow math. It meant they got to eat marshmallows while making me happy. Win-win. We found some cute snowman shaped marshmallows at Walmart, but these…
It’s a bit late for January, but they’re up anyway! January is Desert Animals and February is Ocean Animals! I’ve also started adding in monthly headers for every month so if you’d like to use a theme in a differently month you’ll have the header! So there is a separate file. I’ve tried to include…
Last year I put out this cute little memory book. Cassie suggested that I update it for 2013! Here’s the updated version! There are also 2 other booklets – a countdown and an ABC booklet! Make sure to check them out Go Here to Download the New Years Booklets!
I’m always trying to show the boys how and why to be thankful. It’s a hard job at times. In a world progressing so fast in electronics, sending cards is becoming a thing of the past. But nothing shows how thankful you are as much as a nice hand written note. Unfortunately, thank you notes…

I love having a place to go where I know I will find quality materials for many different topics. I have my own little collections of favorites and we always check them when starting a new unit study, or approaching a new topic. Life is just so much easier when you already know where to…
I’ve been experimenting with some sensory recipes and finding some that work and a lot that don’t. Experimenting is fun though! This one I thought was particularly fun, although also quite messy. I took the recipe for slime and added cornstarch to it. In the end it is goopy, slimy, and a lot of…
We’re doing a lot of letter work right now, and puzzles seemed like a fun idea! I’m working on a general ABC set, but thought a Christmas set would be fun for right now. We’re probably going to do Reindeer week, so we will be trying them out this week! The idea is that you…
Baloo loves silly things (and doesn’t really like things that aren’t silly). He isn’t a big fan of writing, so I knew to get him interested it would have to be silly in some way. Or related to Minecraft. I created these writing prompts with a fun little twist. To start, you get to use…
