possibilities.....





Using some stickers you can make an inexpensive wall hanging. I simply put a phrase for Valentines Day on on a white canvas, painted over them and pulled the stickers off after it dried. Now I can't stop thinking about all of the possibilities with this project! Not to mention how EASY it is. Livia will love to do one for her room.

the mom shop









I bring this little portable shop out once a week for the kids to go "shopping". I got the idea from a parent when I used to teach school. I thought it was a great teaching tool and reward system. When the kids complete their chore chart or do extra things around the house they are rewarded with mom tokens. Each item in the shop has a price and it is fun to see which kid can delay gratification and which one just wants something right now. Livia is saving her tokens each week for the nail polish set. Just thought I would share a little something that works so beautifully.
