Fun idea! Crepe paper the door for Christmas so they have to bust out when they wake up. Santa did this to make sure they stayed in their rooms. No home is complete without some fun

I love this idea! This woman has a journal for each of her children, filled with letters to the child and thoughts about them. She started each one the day they found out they were having the child. Gave them when the kids moved out. So sweet and sentimental.

most amazing nursery! Love how much that crib looks like a bed and it's so soothing the colors and everything

"crap baskets" with name labels. At the end of the day everyone takes their own crap and puts it away! @Debra these would have made your life easier when we were growing up
the BEST playdough recipe, hands down. and you make it with JELLO!
Great Family Tradition. "What I love is that each morning, Charlotte and Amelia rush to their envelopes to see what we've written. The notes are sometimes a simple observation of a charitable act or a quick drawing to make them laugh. I love that Charles and I force ourselves to take a minute each evening to think about why we love our children. It's my version of Oprah's gratitude journal." I love it!

Guests will stare wide-eyed as they watch clear water or soda transform into a vibrant color! must be magic!- For cooking class What you?ll need: Plastic party cups, food coloring, ice, and any clear drink (I used Sprite, Fresca and Ginger Ale). Place 2 to 3 drops of food coloring at the bottom of each party cup and let dry. Just before serving the drinks, fill each cup with ice to hide the food coloring. While each child watches, pour the drink over the ice, and the clear water or soda will ?magically? turn into a color as it fills their cup! Use different colors of food coloring so that the kids won?t know what color to expect from their ?magic? soda. For another fun twist you could add a ?fortune telling? element to the drinks by assigning a meaning to each color and displaying the different meanings on a small sign near the soda. For example, purple = royalty, green = wealth, yellow = long life. Whichever color each guest?s soda turns also predicts their personal ?fortune.?

break glowsticks in the bottles for lawn bowling at night... this is CUTE!
Cover the floor of their room with birthday balloons while they sleep. That way they have a big surprise when they wake up! =) I haven't done this since Alex's bday w/ @Laura Watts but Paul would get a kick out of this in october!
