http://craftasticadventures.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Monday, June 29, 2009. Links to this post. Saturday, June 13, 2009. I am SUCH a slacker! This is kicking my butt, man! Who knew that trying to do a craft a day would be so hard, when my kids are like crafting wizards? Anyway, I'll post soon, I promise. Tomorrow we are making Father's Day gifts. That ought to be good for at least three days of craft! Links to this post. Tuesday, June 9, 2009. So, did you know this is National Zoo and Aquarium Month? So, today we made animal masks! Scissors or craft knife.

Craftastic Adventures: Ribbons, ribbons everywhere...
http://craftasticadventures.blogspot.com/2010/01/ribbons-ribbons-everywhere.html
Friday, January 1, 2010. Ribbons, ribbons everywhere. What can you do with all the leftover holiday ribbons? Craft, of course! Set yourself up with some glue paste (50/50 glue and water), a balloon and the excess ribbon and make yourself a decorative bowl! 1 Blow up the balloon to the size you wish the bowl to be. I chose a smallish size, since I was not sure how it would work out or how we would like it. 2 Now the fun begins! Dip the ribbon in the glue mixture to coat the ribbon with glue. To weight the...

http://craftasticadventures.blogspot.com/2010/01/girly-craft-part-1.html
Tuesday, January 5, 2010. Already straying from the plan, but this one was written a few weeks ago, so I should use it! So, I have a daughter who is approaching seven. (EEK! She is the only girl in our family (well, other than myself) and I like to give her girly things. So, I came up with the idea to make her homemade barrettes. I have purchased a crap-ton (a real amount, mind you! 2 Wooden cut-outs, the kind readily available at JoAnn's and Michael's, in a shape that catches your fancy. 1 Lay out newsp...

Sunday, January 3, 2010. Mary Had a Little Lamb, Part One: The Lamb. So, the Hickory Dickory post got me thinking, and I think what I am going to do is post a book a day (or story) with a related craft. See, I am all about getting kids INVOLVED in literature (see over at Maude's. Blog as proof of that! Since Hickory Dickory was a nursery rhyme, this week we will be doing nursery rhymes! Mary Had a Little Lamb, Part One: The Lamb. Mary had a little lamb, little lamb, little lamb. Toilet Tissue Roll or four.

Wednesday, January 13, 2010. We interrupt this blog. Links to this post. Green Eggs and Ham. This is an awesome craft that is fun and easy to do, plus it becomes a fun game you can play for hours afterward. It can enhance word recognition, learning rhymes and fine motor skills. 1 out of 5. Coffee Can or large tin can. 13 Clothes Pins (either kind- spring or no). Decorations for can (optional). If you are going to paint the clothes pins, do this first. Print out and have your child color the pictures.

Craftastic Adventures: Humpty Dumpty
http://craftasticadventures.blogspot.com/2010/01/humpty-dumpty.html
Sunday, January 10, 2010. Your kids will get to put Humpty Dumpty together again! Show them they can do better than ALL the king's horses and ALL the king's men! But that isn't really fair, because just how much use is a horse in this situation anyway? Not like they have opposable digits or fine motor movements. Sheesh. Probably could have put Humpty back together before the horses tried to help! Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall. Humpty Dumpty had a great fall. All the kings horses and all the kings men.

http://craftasticadventures.blogspot.com/2010/01/cat-in-hat.html
Monday, January 11, 2010. Cat in the Hat. Now we will start doing books! I borrowed the idea from Jocelyn over at. Http:/ beinglds.blogspot.com. She did the book a day over the Christmas holidays and I thought it was brilliant, so ya know, they say imitation is the best form of flattery and all that. So, we have all read the Cat in the Hat, right? The craft possibilities for this are limitless.but I personally am a huge fan of the fish. So, we did a fishy craft. 2 out of 5. Dixie cup or small cup.
