Chore Magnets - love this idea - each child can do which chore they want and make the money allotted. When I was little I would have been ALL over this!
Use hair spray and glitter to make tooth fairy money. Love it.

Ahh this is crazy! Trace the hand in pencil. With a marker, draw a straight line until you get to the hand. Then make a curve from one line to the next, then continue the straight line.

What a wonderful gift for grandparents! Or even as artwork around your house. Let your child create some art and match it with a photo of them making the masterpiece.

Cute! (Cover the floor of their room with birthday balloons while they sleep. That way they have a big surprise when they wake up.).

Scan your kids' artwork into a book so you don't have to keep 1,000 pieces of paper forever.

I decided to stencil this bag with various dance phrases & ballet images, but couldn't find the perfect stencil...nor did I want to spend the money. Then the AHA moment came! I could print out some stickers on my Silhouette Cameo and use the negative side (the backing) as a stencil! Come see what I'm talking about... I laid out my design on the computer and then cut it out on my Silhouette Cameo. If you don't have something similar, you can just find some different ballet or dance stickers from your local hobby store. Just peel out the stickers so the backing looks like this... Place the backing from the sticker onto your canvas bag. Now it's time to pick your colors and start painting! I used a small foam brush to apply the paint. Just dab lightly until you fill in the stencil. Let the paint dry and then peel up the sticker stencil. I also added a couple flower embellishments with my hot glue gun to fill in some empty spaces from my design. And that's it!
You will need: Shaving cream, afew different colored paints, old cookie sheet or tray, white card stock paper, toothpicks, and a spatula. First spray the shaving cream onto the cookie sheet. Then spread it using the spatula to be about the size of your piece of paper. Squeeze the paints onto the shaving cream. You can experiment with how you place them. You can make dots, lines, or swirl is around. How you place the paint can change how your picture looks. Using a toothpick swirl the paint around in the shaving cream. Then place your paper on top of the designs. Press down gentle so all the paint touches the paper. Peel the paper off and it will look like this. Using the spatula scrape the shaving cream off of the paper. Then you will have your paper with the swirly designs on it! Let it dry and then you can use the paper for another fun craft.

Glow in the Dark Slime Ingredients: 1 - 4oz bottle of clear or blue gel Elmer's glue 1 cup of warm water 2-3 tablespoons of glow-in-the-dark paint Green Neon Food Coloring 2 teaspoons of Borax 1/3 cup of warm water I altered the recipe a bit from the original recipe at about.com, but it came out great! First mix together the Elmer's glue and the 1 cup of warm water. Stir in the paint and food coloring. In a separate small bowl mix together the 1/3 cup warm water and 2 teaspoons of borax. Stir until the borax is dissolved. Now add about 2 tablespoons of the borax solution to the glue solution. You WILL NOT use all of the borax solution. The more borax you add the stiffer the slime will be. So if you want the slim to be more runny, then add less borax solution. You can add more green food coloring while stirring these solutions together to get your desired color of slime! It should start sticking together and you've got green glow-in-the-dark slime! This recipe can make 2 small half jar fulls of slime or your could package a smaller amount of slime into favor baggies. You can find the Slime labels here and tied them on with black bakers twine, which I sell in my shop here. TIPS: You can find glow-in-dark-paint at craft stores in the paint isles, and borax can be found at most grocery stores along side the laundry detergents. Also make sure to check the paint that you buy to see that it is safe to use for the project. This slime would not be suitable for small children who might put some in their mouth.

3-tier paper tent. The sides say "I need help," "I'm working hard," and "I'm finished." This is good for kids to self monitor and will definitely help to alleviate all the "I'm done, what do I do now!?"
Fetching pins…
