Have any thoughts on how to get a 1 year old boy more interested in books?? he just throws them (except for touchy feely books).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6535558816784279102.post-90474935016233266242008-12-01T09:13:00.000-05:002008-12-01T09:13:00.000-05:00This is one of my fave stories for littles.

For the baby I'm planning on making a card book of photos of her through her first year and I've spotted a soap making kit that looks good. I may even make a flannel hand puppet to go with some soap for my nephews.<BR/><BR/>We'll see!!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6535558816784279102.post-76639411896195483052008-11-28T22:04:00.000-05:002008-11-28T22:04:00.000-05:00We'll be making an Advent wreath this weekend and ...We'll be making an Advent wreath this weekend and begin "greening the house" with evergreen branches this first week of Advent.<BR/><BR/>I'm planning to make all the girl-gifts this year: earrings, journal covers, bags, anything I can do to use up the materials I already have!<BR/><BR/>The kids LOVE making cookie mixes in jars, topped with a square of Christmas fabric and a jingle bell tied with a bow. They turn out so cute and make great gifts! <BR/><BR/>I'm going to try making a lidded box from old vinyl records (you can melt them on very low heat so they're bendy and shape them into cool things like bowls, trays, and (hopefully) boxes)! Then I'll use them as t-shirt gift boxes for the teen and college guys of the family. <BR/><BR/>That's my plan, but we'll see how it really goes! It's impossible to shop with two preschoolers, so we're putting our focus on other, more fun family activities this year.<BR/><BR/>Hope your holiday season is bright and cheery!Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15476636154469326229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6535558816784279102.post-26977082898687856572008-11-28T21:13:00.000-05:002008-11-28T21:13:00.000-05:00I am making chocolate truffles, gingerbread people...I am making chocolate truffles, gingerbread people, and some knit items.
