This is a crazy week, which was preceded by another crazy week, so I’m much more focused on work than the fun stuff right now, but I wanted to post a little something today just so I don’t go too long between posts. And cute pictures of the Bit are always fun to share. The […]
Pompon Sensory/Discovery Activity
After the Easter eggs, which are actually still out (though we haven’t played with them in a week or two), I wasn’t quite sure where I wanted to go with our next sensory/discovery/whatever box.

A Day of Art
The other day when the Bit was home sick, I encouraged her to do lots of different kinds of art. It didn’t take much encouragement, because she loves to play with markers, paint and stickers. But I thought it would be interesting to document all the different things we did, and I share it in […]
