Kids Frugal Fun- Lunch Bag Photo Album

 

This is a Fun Frugal Kids project for you and your little ones to do, Thanks to Mama Loves Her Bargains!

Are you looking for a super fun, quick and easy craft to do with your kids this summer? Mama Loves Her Bargains ran across this idea on Homemade Serenity. Since the weather is getting nice and we are able to move our craft projects outdoors, I thought I would get brave and try out something with liquid watercolors. This rice coloring activity was right up my alley. Not only is it quick enough to keep the attention of my 2 year and 5 year old, but they will be able to play with it later in a sand table or large tupperware container.

That said, a friend of hers, Kathryn, has some of the American Girl Mini Dolls and adores them, and I just stumbled on them at Barnes and Noble.com - up to 42% off!! These are dressed the same as the full sized dolls with the same features, just downsized to 6.5 inches from 18 inches. . They come with a little book as well!

Easter Eggs- Think Outside The Egg!

Thanks Mama Loves Her Bargains,  for this great post about Easter Eggs! 

I'm not anti-candy. Not at all. (Hey, look at my physique, there's clearly been candy in my life on many occasions!). That said, I don't want to just fill a bunch of eggs with candy and let the kids have at it. Sure, I do some candy treats, but we're big into the hunting of the eggs in this family and I try to think "outside the box" my suggestions to fill plastic eggs that are not candy! for fillers. Since Easter's just around the corner, I thought I'd share a few of.
