New Crayons

I have seen people make these chunky crayons before but never felt like destroying a bunch of perfectly good crayons to make them. Until now. At the end of the school year the boys bring home all their not-so-gently used school supplies including a ton of broken crayons! It was finally time to try recycled crayons. We decided to break them into color groups which was fun. These are super easy and probably best for my three year old who isn't concerned with precise lines and colors yet.

Easter Eggs

So we started with these

Then we got these

And we were especially proud of this little guy!

Felt Gingerbread houses

So we have done a lot of baking and crafts this holiday season but this is something we all enjoyed making. These are milk cartons and cone "trees"decorated with felt . The boys spent literally a good 2 hours making 8 houses and four trees. It looks so cute by their own tree in their room-just like a little village from the old Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer movies. Only 4 days to go until Christmas!!!!!
