Gardening & Other Earth Day Activities for Kids

Dude #3 is a gardener and getting it ready for the season is one of his favorite Earth Day Activities. He plans it, he plants it, he tends it, and he harvests it.  All I do is grub what he grows. At five years old he had enough veggies to keep us in salsa for the entire winter, even after he shared his goods with

Kids Room Ideas: Humongosaur DIY Cork Board

I have been on this major make-my-house-awesomer kick lately.

Whoa, Girl, Is That a TV Tray?

Boys Room Ideas: DIY Superhero Dresser Makeover

At the start of the summer, I found myself killing time at a foreign Wal-Mart. It wasn’t my sketchy hometown one, it was one of those sparkly new ones, with the wide aisles, and the baskets with four working wheels, and none of the mid century insane asylum lighting that so many of them seem to be outfitted with. I was strolling through calmly (none

Homemade Ice Cream with YayLabs!

Yesterday Dude 2 had his tonsils taken out. The surgery went well; done in 20 minutes flat. He did a couple of creepy things in the recovery room courtesy of the anesthesia, but overall he is in good spirits, and working his way through a Costco sized bottle of prescription pain reliever. I will write a more informative post about how and why we decided

Gardening with Kids: DIY Succulent Container Gardens.

In celebration of Earth Day we’re bringing you some container gardening tips! In addition to planting an entire, soon-to-be-edible, container garden and weeding a quarter of the area where our in ground garden will reside (so much more to be done!), we (by we I basically mean me because I’m pretty sure my gardening sidekick spent some of this time dancing barefoot in the grass

Dude Approved DIY Kid Crafts

I am not that crafty of a human. My hands shun intricate details, and make a mess of things that used to be pretty. But, every now and again, I sorta hit the jackpot when it comes to craftiness and, when I say every now and then, I basically mean five times in about as many years. Here are 5 DIY Kid Crafts to Try

DIY Holiday Photo Ornaments.

Determined to make my holiday sparkle, I decided to tackle some DIY holiday photo ornaments this year. I looked on Pinterest. So, so many ideas. But, as someone who can’t accurately follow a set of directions to save her life likes to forge her own path, I decided that I could eyeball a few samples without actually looking through the tutorials, and then come up
