does anyone else out there find themselves trying to keep their kids busy?? I never used to worry about it but with the extreme cold weather and not wanting to use the TV as a babysitter I have been trying to find stuff to do with them........ Today I think we are gonna go to the $1 theater and see Chicken Little......... the girls have also been interested in making yarn dolls and braided necklaces, so I am sure that will be on the agenda as well today, I need to find a super easy bread recipe to try and make with the girls too............
hhhmmmmm well off to search the web for some bread recipes for the girls and I to try! |

Seriously, when my 'real' girls were little, bored was never an issue .. I used to say "smart kids never get bored" and also "if you're bored, I'll FIND you something to do!"
But finding crafts is the best way ... boys like working with fiber, too ... and yarn dolls are fun to make and play with. Wood working skills are nice to teach, too, to both boys and girls.
Good luck with your crafts.
