Handwriting with Shaving Cream and a Mirror

July 12, 2014 By Julie 2 Comments

Lately I’ve been realizing how extremely resistant my son is to anything even remotely related to handwriting. He has been getting therapy for Sensory Processing Disorder and the Occupational Therapist has been working with him to draw a circle (not his typical spiral) and make a “criss cross”. Call me oblivious, but I was shocked that […]

“Serious” Fun Saturdays: Cloud-Like Playdough Recipe

July 5, 2014 By Julie 3 Comments

Are you looking for a simple, luxurious playdough recipe? Two ingredients and no heat sound simple enough? This stuff is almost as delightful as squeezing my one year old’s thighs. Pure bliss. As a kid’s blogger,I’m a little embarrassed to admit that this is only my second attempt at homemade playdough. Cooking? PAHleese. I’ll just […]

   Chances are good that you have everything you need at home to do this fun window painting project. Brushes? Check. Washable paint? Check. Liquid dish soap? Check. Mix the paint and the soap to give your windows that stained glass look. (I got this idea from “Coffee Cups and Crayons” She was brave enough to do […]

“Serious” Fun Saturdays: “Painting” with Water and a Chalkboard

June 13, 2014 By Julie 2 Comments

I really like no prep activities. Mostly because I tend to fly by the seat of my pants. When I plan, I usually dream too big and get frustrated when they don’t work or we never get around to actually doing them. (“Hello, craft project that I started six months ago!”) So here’s a good […]

“Serious” Fun Saturdays: Feather Play for Older Babies

June 6, 2014 By Julie 3 Comments

I’ve been feeling bad about how much blog space my three year old Loopy has been getting compared to 13 month old Lumpy. Of course, art reflects life. Poor Lumpy either does what brother is up to, or has to sit out, most of the time. But low and behold, Loopy took an extra long […]

Car Wash Sensory Bin

May 31, 2014 By Julie 13 Comments

We were bored. It was hot. I wanted the boys to do something together and outside. Went to my handing dandy pinterest board. Nothing jumped off the page at me. Decided to grab a bunch of vehicles. Goodness knows we have enough of those lying around! Then I grabbed a couple “washing utensils.” Then I […]

Letter Hopscotch

May 24, 2014 By Julie 7 Comments

  Time for another installment of “Serious” Fun Saturdays!   Loopy has been very interested in “reading” books on his own. He knows almost all his letters and sounds, but Upper and Lowercase letters still mess him up. Loopy came up with this great game for learning about letters, using a common kitchen utensil.   […]

Baby-safe Slime

May 16, 2014 By Julie 4 Comments

  This post may contain links that help support my family. If you’d like to know more, click here. Now that Lumpy is one, he wants to do EVERYTHING that Loopy does. Unfortunately, he still likes to mouth stuff so he doesn’t get to participate in some of our learning activities for safety reasons. When […]
