Love this idea! "When the kids do their chores right away, with a good attitude and do them according to “mom’s standards” I reward them with a few points. They save these points and then at least once a week we open the family “store”.

This is homemade silly putty (not as firm), but for a little toddler, its a great activity for strengthening the hands and fingers. It promotes dexterity, grip strength, and overall motor skills (all important things for writing).

Cool the kids off with a homemade sprinkler. Take a 2 liter soda bottle, poke holes in it. Attach to a garden hose via a male to male adapter that cost less than $5 at Lowes. Toss over a tree branch and let hang. You can adjust how the water sprinkles by adjusting the water flow. When the bottle dies just switch it out with another bottle -- no additional cost!
