When it comes to the holidays we love to have as many of our decorations handmade as we possibly can. so naturally with Halloween right around the corner we've been trying to come up with as many fun creepy crawly themed crafts as possible. I'd seen some really cute...
Ever since he was tiny my son has always loved going to see the ducks. Where we live we're lucky to have some lovely little duck ponds locally and he loves going with his pound coin to buy some feed for them. The ponds are always quiet and the ducks are always out in...
How cute are these little pig corner bookmarks? For the last couple of weeks my toddler has been absolutely obsessed with the nursery rhyme old MacDonald had a farm. She sings it non-stop and over the last few days I haven't been able to get it out of my head either!...
Can you believe how close it is to halloween? It feels like its only just been and gone! It's been an unusual year with everything that's been going on and there has been so many ups and downs. My little guy finally started back at school last week and whilst I know...
Todays make is only a little one but we still love this paper doily peacock craft. He's so sweet and simple to make which made it easy to squeeze in some crafting on this busy day! My little guy is back to school tomorrow so today has been a busy day washing and...
Were back again with another Halloween craft and I must admit that I absolutely love this paper plate spider web. We sat and made ours whilst we were watching one of my sons favourite movies and it was just such a fun craft to relax with and to make slowly. We can't...
Its been a bit of a funny day for us today, the rain hasn't stopped all day and the thunder has been just as keen too. We never really go out when its thundering as my two really aren't keen on it, so we've just spent the day plodding about the house. We did however...
Sometimes the best crafts are the most simple ones! My little guy has had so much fun making and playing with this cute little cardboard slithering snake craft. Since lockdown started back in March we've been ordering so much more stuff to the house rather than going...
We're back again today with yet another ocean themed craft. We absolutely love this cute handprint fish craft! Each little fish turns out sweet and unique which makes this craft perfect for both crafting at home or crafting at groups such as preschools or toddler...
This Cute paper doily lion craft is perfect for those quiet rainy days at home. We've been planning to make some doily crafts for a while now as we have a huge pack of them. My little guy never really liked to use them before as they're so easy to tear but now he's a...
I'm absolutely buzzing to share todays craft with you! Okay, that was a terrible joke but aren't these little yarn wrapped bumble bees just the cutest? We had loads of fun making these little guys and it was a great way to talk to my son about how important bees are...
Don't you just love this cute pasta lion card? With all the hot weather we've had this week, crafting has been the last thing on our mind. Thankfully it's been a cooler today and we decided it was time to wheel the craft drawers back out, especially as we had a...
Our scrap paper drawer has been busting at the seams of late so we decided it was time that we made another scrap paper craft. We noticed that we had a huge amount of yellow and orange paper so we decided to make something using those colours. My son actually came up...
How adorable is this TP Roll Turkey craft? My little guy wanted to make his own little turkey after looking at all the cool crafts on Pinterest. We had already made a cute TP roll peacock and I thought a turkey in the same style would look awesome too. I just love how...
I absolutely love this cute handprint jellyfish craft. We made these to go on my sons door, which with all of the fun ocean crafts that we have been making latetly is turning into something of an ocean display board. These little jellyfish look so cute and the best...
How cute is this little pipe cleaner pen topper octopus craft? There are so many things that my little guy loves to do, unfortunately though learning to write just isn't one of them. We have to work really hard to make it seem fun and enjoyable for him. So when we sat...
After a few days off crafting we're back again with yet another ocean themed craft! How adorable are these cake liner handprint hermit crabs? We've been watching a lot of national geographic documentaries lately and my little guy's fascination with all things under...
If you’ve followed the blog at all you will know that my son is mad about all things under the sea. He loves learning about the ocean environment and its inhabitants though his books and we read some of national geographic kids ultimate oceanpedia almost every single day. He loves watching documentaries together too and more often than not hes the one teaching me something new! It was actually him who gave me the idea for this cute paper plate jellyfish
Today I’m back again with another pipe cleaner craft! We had so much fun making these yesterday and came up with some really fun little ideas. I think though that these pipe cleaner snail magnets are my favourite of the day. They’re just so adorable and once you get the hang of them they’re really easy to make too. We have a whole garden full of them on our fridge right now!
We have a massive collection of pipe cleaners that we have amassed over the last few months. For some reason though we never really use them much so our collection has just been growing and growing. After the millionth time of putting them back in the drawer after the kids have thrown them everywhere I decided it was time we actually made something with them. I actually came up with the idea for these pipecleaner bumble bee magnets whilst my son was sat twisting a brown and a yellow pipecleaner together. It took both him and me a couple of times to get the hang of it but now were bumble bee making pros!
