We just finished another cute craft from Kiwi Crate this week.

This week it was paper jellyfish with glow stickers. They turned out really cute and the kids can make them travel up and down on pull strings attached to the back. They had great fun racing their creations up and down the patio door!

Hope you’ve been having a great week!

I decided to try something new in the crafts department with the kiddos – I signed them up for 6 months with Kiwi Crate.

They were so excited with our first crate that came this past week! It came with their names on the box and featured “glow creatures”. They decided to make the glow worms first.

We had some fun this past week with printable autumn and Halloween-themed coloring pages. You can find a ton of them just by doing a Google image search.

The oldest picked this one from Honking Donkey Kid’s Coloring Pages and Activity Sheets website.

Sometimes just a simple activity like coloring can make for great family together-time.

Hope you had a fun week!

So apparently my posts suffered some major glitches while we were on vacation for the past two weeks. Not a single thing posted and I have no idea why – sorry everyone!

Anyway, this was supposed to post last week. Here’s what the oldest has been up to:

She decided she wanted to start keeping a nature journal and so she put together a notebook and designed a cover for it.
