    Easy Fun Eco-Printing Craft for Youth and Up

    May 11, 2020 / No Comments

    Here’s a craft that you have probably never done before. Eco-printing is a fun way to make pretty cards and writing paper. The materials involved are simple and can mostly be found in and around your neighbourhood. My oldest daughter Payton did this one and came up with the idea then helped document the steps here. Fun Craft With Natural Materials This Eco-printing activity could be a great craft to do with older kids because it gets them off their screens and outside for a bit. Basically, you just need to go for a walk around the neighbourhood to gather leaves, petals and buds. The more colourful the better. Don’t…

    25 Christmas DIY Ornaments Kids Can Make

    December 2, 2016 /

    It’s beginning to look a little like Christmas. Time to start making crafts and decking the halls with traditional and new DIY ornaments. I have one tiny tree up already. Are you starting to dress up your home for the holidays? This time of year, I am inspired by snow to get active. I actually can’t wait to get busy skiing and traveling this season. Christmas is a busy time around here, like it is in many of your . In fact, the busiest season for me professionally and personally. So I need plans to keep kids occupied sometimes.

    10 Sensory Play Ideas with Gelatin

    May 25, 2015 /

    My kids are a curious combination of sensory seeking and sensory avoiding. That’s not uncommon for children with sensory processing difficulties. My older daughter avoids anything that feels scratchy. My younger daughter seeks out deep pressure often and also avoids any fabrics that are not soft and comfortable. Both have some sensory issues. I have written about that often here. Remember this post about 5 easy and free sensory play activities for kids with sensory processing disorder. Both of my girls indulge in and seek out messy play. Not always but often. They like painting, gardening, crafting. They are also very kinaesthetic (which is a fancy way for saying they…

    Bird Colouring Pages Printable

    May 14, 2015 /

    Do you have an aspiring bird watcher in your house? In our old house we had a row of cedars and the cedars often attracted blue jays. Many years we had babies hanging about in the cedars. I think I was the one who enjoyed that the most. My front lawn also held a cedar hedge that was home to baby robins every single year. It used to make my kids very happy to step out the front door and peek at them. Sadly a few years the baby robins had some trouble learning to fly and we ended up needing to bury a couple of the ones that did…
