kids

Apple, ball and cat were so last year. Let's get with the retro times and teach our kids something useful!

Learning to spread peanut butter and jelly on bread is an important step to building the motor skills necessary for driving a car and french braiding your hair.

When I was a kid, the closest I ever got to decorating my own cake was a cookie and a little tube of gel icing. I had plenty of fun with just that. Imagine how awesome it would have been if we had edible paper back then? I can't say I'm not a little jealous of kids these days.

Okay so these puzzles aren't exactly mentally challenging or anything, but aren't they precious? Excellent shelf decorations.

Real books cause papercuts and have too many words. Start off a little easier.

Who wouldn't love a pillow with their family on it? Amazing gift to pass down through generations!

If you have a toddler you are pretty much legally obligated to dress them up like an Ewok. Don't think, just do it.

I'll never really outgrow the desire to be a giant industrial machine capable of dousing giant fires. Gimme!

If the kids table at my Christmas dinner this year had a kit this fun, I'd be half tempted to join them! Free free free printable activity kit to keep the kiddos busy.

What a special way to say goodbye to your class! I would have felt so incredibly special if my teacher had mad a little sandwich with my face on it! I'd be the one in the lower left with glasses. Nerd ahoy!
