Crafty Morning with the Kids

It's Monday, the sun is shinning and we are crafting fools over here at the Joys of the Home Educating!  Our public schools are on Spring Break...not us...we are gearing up this week for a fun week of Earth activities and Easter teachings!  Here is our morning so far...


I made these for the Welcome Spring Playdate we had on Friday for the moms.




Originally I wanted a bunny, however, think it looks more like a cat..lol

One of the chicks above uses these little flower pots...I had a bunch of them around,,,

Girls working on their projects for the Grandmas..

The little birdie nest is made with 1/2 of a toilet paper roll, some dollar store moss and other stuff we had around the house..



For the chick's nest, I put Elmers glue around the toilet paper roll, and rolled that into the moss..



We interupt this craftiness to bring you a concert from The Barbie Girls....oy this guitar...

You are just a bundle of crafting energy! Our craft time this week consisted of the kids painting the projects that came in craft kits given as birthday gifts. Oh well.

I might try that chick in the toilet paper tube. We have plenty of those, it's simple, and cute. My kids would love it!

National Chocolate Chip Day

May 15, 2012 is National Chocolate Chip Day Today is National Chocolate Chip Day! Chocolate chips are an essential ingredient in dozens of delicious baked goods—chocolate chip cookies, chocolate chip pancakes, chocolate chip muffins, chocolate chip brownies, chocolate chip bagels, and many more. You can even find chili recipes that call for these sweet morsels! In the 1930s, Ruth Graves Wakefield created the original chocolate chip cookie at her Toll House Inn in Whitman, Massachusetts. Ruth intended to bake chocolate cookies for her guests, but she ran out of baker’s chocolate. She substituted with chopped up semi-sweet chocolate morsels and discovered that the pieces did not melt into the dough as she expected. Her cookies were an instant hit. Today, 25% of all the cookies baked in the United States are chocolate chip! To celebrate National Chocolate Chip Day, pick up a bag of chocolate chips at the supermarket and bake something yummy to share with friends and cowor
