Mom's Special Day

 Phew!

I am very behind in posting but I wanted to show our Mother's Day creations as my kiddos did such a great job and the Moms were all so pleased with receiving them.

So, here's what we did for MOM.

Wooden Plaques

I found these layered wooden plaques and the kids glued tissue paper squares on the back layer, coloured the second layer with markers and then we kept the top layer plain as to show the details.

Wooden Wall Hangers

Again, found these at the Dollar Store and the kids coloured them.

Gem Suncatchers

Mom Banner

Mother's Day Card

I traced the kids hands and we made a card.

First, we will start with some crafts made for the kids favourite TV show..Bluey.

More Summer Fun

Hello and Welcome

Summer is such a fun time to be outside, something we love to do. 

We do like to take some time though, to create, especially on those rainy days.

So here's some of the fun we had.

Kites

These simple folded paper kites were fun to fly.

We added streamers on the bottom.

This simple puppet is basically a big heart cut at the top and glued together.

We used some old CD's to make suncatchers.

We made these simple rainbows to better learn the letters of the kids names.

What a busy month August has been!  I can't believe how time flies.

I took some time off and stepped away from social media so be prepared....this post is a longer then usual with the theme we worked on for a few weeks.

So here's what we did a few weeks ago.

Fish

We made these cute cone fish using construction paper.

Rocking Shark

This fun printable was coloured, then folded so it would rock.

Seagull

We made this cute seagull using paper plates.

Fishing

This cute little fish was made using a paper towel tube, flattened and then cut.

The kids coloured it and we attached it to a large stick and went fishing.

Moving Fish

We made these fun fish that could bend and we could make them swim.

INSTRUCTIONS

Seashell Necklaces

I had a bag of seashells so I drilled some holes in them and the kids used them to string some necklaces and bracelets.

Seashell

I printed this cute little seashell off and when folded, it can open and close.

Some of the kids made small shapes to put in the mouth.

Octopus

This cute printable helped us learn that an octopus has 8 legs.

Another fun one.

Belated Mother's Day

 Welcome

We celebrated Mother's Day last week.  

All is behind as I was off sick and some of the kids were as well.

We could never forget our Moms and how special they are!

So here's what we did last week.

Mom Suncatcher

I cut out the 'Mom' heart and added some sticky contact paper to create our suncatcher.

Flower Bouquet

I printed these off HERE and the kids decorated them.

Mom Medallion

I made these with the kids a few years ago and really had to rack my brain to remember how to do them.

I used old envelopes to create it and decided to write a reminder about how to do it when I finally figured it out again.  I really hope they make sense if you want to create one.

They are fun and the kids loved how big they were.

Watering Can Card

I cut these watering cans out and the kids glued them together. 

We added some flower seeds to the front pocket.

Trivet

I glued clothespins from the Dollar Store together with hot glue.

The kids loved colouring the sticks, something different to make our trivet Mother's Day gift.

How to's are HERE

Thanks so much for coming by and taking a look.

Springtime

 Welcome

So happy to have some Spring-like temperature and see all of nature coming alive, truly a time of discovery.

We do like to spend a lot of time outside, we are so lucky in my neighbourhood to have quite a few parks and walking trails.

So here's what we did this week.

Bunny Suncatcher

My kids love making suncatchers. They are simply done using some contact paper and a cut out.

Ducks

We made these sweet little ducks and pretended to float them in the pond.

Spring Scene

I printed out the pieces for our Spring Scene, then the kids coloured them and we decorated our 

3-D scene.
