Summer FUN!

HI EVERYONE!  I saw THIS recipe for Sidewalk Chalk Paint and thought it was easy enough and best of all I had it all in my cupboards:)  Cant beat that right?!  I let my kids measure out the cornstarch and water and then let them color the chalk with GEL FOOD COLOR (I LOVE LOVE LOVE gel food color. The colors are SO vibrant!)

I used an old muffin tin I had to hold all the colors. I think it worked really well:)  I gave each of my kids a paint brush and let them go to town:)  They loved it and the best part, it kept them busy for awhile! 

   

 We also made some "GAK".  This was so fun to make and so easy.  {I used this Tutorial} I was worried this was going to be messy, but its sooooo clean!  Way cleaner then any play dough and super fun to play with!  Look at my Table...SEE, NO MESS!

What have you been up to this summer?! 

My kids need something to do...

...So we are going to make some crafts today:) These are all ideas I saw on Pintrest. Just Click on the pictures to be taken to the source:) I hope you are all having a Great Holiday Season:)

Something Fun to do with the kids!

Aren't these cute in a weired way?! Sassy Sites did a spotlight on Elsa Mora, she makes beautiful people out of things from nature! I love stuff like this and wanted to make them with my girls. So this afternoon I put my baby in the stroller and we all took a little nature walk around our house:) I was surprised with how many beautiful things we had around that we didn't really see until we LOOKED! It was fun to see what my girls found beautiful! (like weeds! lol:)) My 6 Year old made the first one, my 3 Year old made the second and mine is the last one. I am so proud, they have such great imaginations! It was FUN!
