Craft Projects

Ever notice that there are flower bouquets for every season and reason, but not really for St. Patrick's Day? In fact, the stores where I live completely skip over this little holiday and have right on to Easter. To rectify this injustice, we have decided to make our own bouquet of shamrocks for St. Patrick's Day with coffee filters. I guarantee they'll last longer than your typical bouquet as well! Things you will need: Coffee FiltersPencilGreen Pipe CleanersGreen Food DyePaper Towels You can make as many shamrocks as you like - the more the merrier! Start by taking each coffee filter and dividing...

We are just 2 days away from the once-in-a-lifetime solar eclipse, and I'm probably the only person left on the planet who hasn't bought the necessary glasses. It's a huge homeschool fail, I know. I see all the homeschoolers around me ramping up for the big event, drafting elaborate unit studies, inspiring excitement and anticipation. And me? When I finally get around to thinking about it, there are no solar eclipse glasses to be found. So, in true DIY fashion, we are going to make our own solar eclipse pinhole viewers. With young children, the solar eclipse pinhole viewers are maybe a better...

I love the Christmas holidays!  We tend to drop back to just the basics in our homeschool.  This gives us all a much-needed break and it allows us time for the many activities that come along with the holidays. In our home, we love anything that is creative, so I’ve started leaving out crafting supplies for Clark and Luci.  I’d love if you visit my guest blog today over at My Joy-Filled Life, where I talk in a little more detail about simple Christmas crafts with Popsicle sticks. It never ends with just one craft, though.  Clark and Luci will work on...

I’ve officially now seen a wedding invitation on Facebook. Is this what the world is coming to? I know I’m getting older and sometimes I don’t get the younger generation, but this was a bit much. So much of our communication is done by text and social media. I can’t even deny that I’m a part of this. It’s so much easier to have a conversation via text at my leisure (meaning when the kids aren’t being hoodlums) than hiding in the bathroom with my phone while they pound on the door. Who chats for hours on the phone anymore? Who writes...

I am really excited to be guest-posting on a regular basis on one of my favorite blogs, My Joy-Filled Life. Today, my article, “Studying the Masters of Classic Art: Vincent Van Gogh” will be featured and you’re going to want to read it. This is such a fun and SIMPLE way (I’m all about quick and easy!) to learn about famous artists. The best news is the curriculum is FREE for the summer!!! Be sure to read the article to find out how you can get the curriculum and have fun with your kiddos! My children absolutely loved it, so we will be...

Happy 4th of July to all of our American Readers!  Our holiday plans were rained out and I was just coming off of a series of three 12 hour night shifts, so there wasn’t much activity going on at our house today.  Any time we are confined indoors, however, the children are always happy to experiment with an art project.  So today we learned hw to make a patriotic firework painting with a fork! Here's What You'll Needed This project is quick, simple and fun – because you really can’t mess up!  We gathered together black construction paper, paints, a plastic fork...
