Blaise in turning THREE soon!

For his birthday I filled this vintage tin with recycled manipulatives to encourage a little NAME practice!  I think he’ll get a kick out of the mini activities.  My favorite name “tool” is the tape measure with his name underneath.  Scrabble tiles are tucked inside the orange mint container.

xoxoxooxxo!

Ever since Mason came home from school with this little loom set he has been interested in SEWING activities!  His Grammy gave him lessons when he was on vacation and he even asked for a SEWING machine for his birthday.  I love that he doesn’t discriminate— from sports to sewing he loves it all!

He teaches me more than I could ever teach him.

Detective McSmogg’s Decoder (Red Robin Coasters)

Finger Printing Cards & Ink Pad

Only a few days of winter left and we plan on taking advantage of these last snowy days by cuddling up with lots of good books.  

Enjoy YOUR day!
