It’s another Trading Spaces Tuesday! Did you know that my kids are on Spring Break already? I’m not sure what everyone else’s Spring Break schedule is, but I’m guessing that it will be here before you know it. If you don’t have exotic travel plans, you may be struggling with ideas to keep your kids […]

Happy Birthday Mr. President… If you are looking for something to do with your kiddos off of school this President’s Day, maybe you could help them make some presidential puppets! My first grader (with ideas from me and lots of help from BSB) made this puppet as part of a book report for school. This […]
School Valentines 2011

Leave it to me to take a great simple idea and turn it into a great complicated one. I loved the valentines we made for my son’s class last year, and since he is at a new school and my daughter hadn’t done these before, we decided it was a great enough concept for a […]

Back to School 2010

I know in some parts of the country, it seems ludicrous that we are back in school, but today was the big day! I’m thinking maybe they do it this way in Phoenix, because it is too hot to do much of anything else right now. We get long Fall and Spring breaks, because it is feasible […]
School Project Insanity

What involves royal frosting, fondant, literature, and power tools? If you live at my house, it is a 4th grade school project! My daughter read “The Sign of the Beaver” and had chosen to create a diorama (or “diarrhea” as my 2 year old calls it) of a scene in the book as her project. […]
Back to School Bashes

I know it feels strange to be thinking about school uniforms and class supplies when it’s 110 outside, but in just a couple of weeks, my kids will be back in school. So whether you are sad to see them go, and want one last hurrah before that fateful day, or whether you are counting […]
