The Fourth of July is coming up! This is a great craft to make with kids in the days leading up to it…and at the end they have a useful situpon they can use that day for picnics and for sitting on to watch fireworks. I’m sharing the whole tutorial at B-Inspired Mama today — […]
Nature Pictures and Flower Art
After an unusually wet spring, we have a ton of flowers…and leaves…and growing things (and weeds! But let’s look on the bright side, shall we?). We collected a bunch last week and made some flower art, which I’m sharing over at In the Playroom. Check them out! And if you make any of your own, […]
