Invitation to Paint: St. Patrick’s Day

{This post contains affiliate links, please see my disclosure policy.}  My son is not a “crafter” or “painter”.  If I ask, “Do you want to paint today?!”  He will say, “No, let’s play Legos — or let’s be pirates on the ship!”  So I have to create an invitation to paint! So if I want him…

We have been reading a cute, nonsense book about St. Patty’s Day and a…

How to make a felt leprechaun for St. Patrick’s Day

I have always thought, from when I was little, that leprechauns are a little creepy. But we have had a lot of fun with various St. Patrick’s Day free, awesome printables at our house, and I wanted to make a cute leprechaun for John for him to enjoy and remember the holiday more distinctly**. So…

Tot School – Valentine’s Day

We put our Letter Tot School on hold this week, so that we could celebrate Valentine’s Day.  We have done so many fun activities this week and I’d love to share them with you. I made six Valentine tot trays this week.  John loved them and we played each of them at least 3 or…

Celebrating Groundhog’s Day!

My friend just told me about this fun children’s site; here is a screenshot of the Starfall’s website’s Groundhog Day fun : ) And we made this adorable Groundhog Puppet!  I got the template from All Kids Network.  I printed his front on brown paper and just cut out a back with the front. I stuffed it with…
