They are great for counting, kissing and, when they are clean, they are fun to nibble on! For every major holiday since his birth, Little Mister has made some sort of keepsake which involves his hands or feet being splattered with paint. I love it and it will continue to be a tradition around here for many years to come. (When he hits high school age, however, he…

I recently attended a Kindergaten and PreSchool Tea put on by the staff and PTA of Bower Hill Elementary School… There were many creative ideas there that are too cute not to share… The green balls are cake pops! The large red one is a styrofoam ball. There he is hanging high. Made with paper …
