Pre-school
We've been checking out these backpacks from the library.
They each have a story and at least one activity to learn about the subject. Some of the suggested things are above 3 and 4 year olds , wanting them to write the answers, but all can be adapted. On Thursday the 28th, the twins and I looked through the packs and went over all the fun things to learn. In the Weather one there was a windsock. After observing it and seeing how the wind was blowing, I figured we could make one. Following are pictures of us making windsocks.

hair dos
Got this idea from Jenn. She has lots of girls hair do ideas with instructions. I changed it up a bit:
And here's a do I did back in March:
While I'm on the subject of hair, I gave Shantel a hair cut last month. She requested: short and not all the same length, I think I got it! She loves it and well, it's cute, but it makes her look way older than 12, in my opinion! What do you think?
The elements for this page came from this great free kit at Sunshine Girls. {the first link will take you to all the freebies -- I used the 'mother's love', it's a huge kit from several people-- and the second to the main page.}
