So, remember how I couldn’t stop talking about being a part of the awesome Listen to Your Mother show back in May? And how I promised I would let you watch the video? Well, the videos are up, and here is mine. I think watching it may have been scarier than actually doing it. I […]
Crazy About Containers
This isn’t really a project, or even an activity that you can necessarily do with your kids, but it’s something you might want to look out for or try and observe what your kid does. The Bit is almost 4, and she’s obsessed with putting things in containers. Not putting things away, exactly, but moving […]
