Giant Award Ribbons Kids Craft
Everything is always better when it's either oversized or itty-bitty.

The next day, my boys came back with more flowers … [Read more...] about DIY Bug Garden
Outdoor Compass Treasure Hunt

I have to tell you a quick story about how I came up with this game at our house. One night after I told my kids to go to bed for the 5,000th time and they weren't listening, I decided to get clever. My 5-year-old boys were playing with a lantern they had received from their grandma, and on top of the lantern was a compass. They had been … [Read more...] about Outdoor Compass Treasure Hunt
