Moana Themed Girls Camp Hats I love a camp t-shirt as much as the next person (maybe a little more actually!) but knew our budget was getting tight. We found these solid colored hats at Wal-Mart for about $3 a piece. We weren't able to find enough hats in the same colors, so we went with these 3 colors and let … [Read more...] about Moana Themed Girls Camp Hats

Pinewood Derby Printable Prizes that won't break the bank! Cub Scouts comes with a tight budget, so I worked up these prizes that the boys will be proud to take home for just a few dollars. As a mom of boys, I've experienced a few pinewood derby's in my day and know how excited the boys get to make their own cars and then race it against their friends. I've tried a number of different things for the prizes, but have found that 2-liter bottles of soda are always a hit. They make for a … [Read more...] about Pinewood Derby Printable Prizes
