I am a great fan of the Yellow moon Catalogue {the links in our Cheap arts supplies page}.They have fantastic sales ,so save some cash and check out their clearance section. I got these lovely leaf stickers in my last shopping spree, May used them to make the above autumn tree picture,it turned out well.

Children's Easy Monster Makes

May's Monsters
Pretend Monsters are always fun for children to make. May is left handed so most makes we do include cutting out, she managed really well with the monsters below.
The best scissor practice, I find is always the ones, the child doesnt realise thats what they are doing.!

Easy make " Children's Cardboard Masks"

May's Friday Night Playdate

May had her cousins round last friday. 2 Very energetic little girls, half an hour in to it the dog was hiding and my hubby had his headphones on plugged into a computer. All the toys had been looked at and put to the side ,even the Wii wasn't working so it was back to the old fashioned story time.

The 3 girls became the 3 little pigs and we made up our own version of the story.{ the pigs were now armed with shotguns and bats } Me I was the wolf who had to dodge bullets.

 It sounds crazy but it worked, it kept them busy till it was time to take them home.  As for me I decided I needed to be better prepared for their next visit.
