Craft Projects

“Mommy when are we going to get a pumpkin to carve?” We are walking through the grocery store, past the massive display of pumpkins and the inevitable question comes.  Clark had been hounding me for weeks and I had put it off as long as I was able.  I was going to have to carve a pumpkin.  Now, I know that there are some folks who love this sort of thing (and to those people, I say: “Where on earth are you when I need you?!”), but I’m not one of them. In fact, there are few things in life that...

We’ve been reading the book The Glorious Flight as part of our Five in a Row curriculum.  This is an awesome curriculum based on classic children’s literature in which you read one book for 5 days in a row.  Each day, you focus on a different subject from the book. The Glorious Flight is the story of the Frenchman, Louis Blériot, who worked for many years to build an airplane.  After many efforts and many failures, he was finally able to fly across the English Channel, winning a contest in the process. I had chosen this book specifically because for weeks Clark had been asking...

Clark lost his first tooth!  It was surprisingly uneventful, without days or even weeks of telltale wiggling, in fact without any drama whatsoever.  He just surprised me one morning as I came home from work, holding a little baby tooth.  He was excited and so was I, except for that tiny little voice in the back of my head that whispered like it always does, “Look at young handsome little boy!  He’s growing up so fast!” The crafty side of my brain immediately goes to Pinterest and all of the cute, fun ideas for celebrating the loss of the first tooth,...

We’ve been studying the children’s book, Miss Rumphius as part of our Five in a Row Curriculum.  Let me just say that if you have not read this to your children yet, get down to the library and get it.  It is an absolute treasure. Our favorite part of each row is the art portion.  With each new book we discover new mediums, new ideas, new concepts. The children (and I) love this part, and the chance for exploring art with Miss Rumphius was no different. The FIAR guidebook suggested several different angles, so we chose a couple of them.  The first was...

As part of our Five in a Row curriculum, we have been studying the book, Miss Rumphius.  It is such a sweet book about a woman who lived a full and wonderful life, and in the end wanted to do something to make the world a more beautiful place.  She did this by planting lupines.  Everywhere.  I loved this because I love lupines! Of course, this story led to the study of plants, seeds and gardening, and a yearly refresh for last year's fairy garden.  It’s pretty awesome when you can incorporate your daily activities into your learning so seamlessly! Last Year's Fairy...
