Tomorrow is Sommer’s 8th birthday.
🎈
We were planning a small group gathering before the #coronavairus hit so there wasn’t a big shindig to call off.
🎈
But today she got wind of a surprise that we started planning for her, and i saw her eyes light up when she asked if she was going to get to see her friends. And it broke my heart to tell her that no, we still have to distance but that we have a fun surprise in store anyway.
🎈
My husband and I have designed a little #zoom party for her that has required a different corner of my party planning brain. I also want to be sensitive to the over-extended parents that do not need one more to-do on their list!
🎈
Tomorrow I’ll report in with a 👍🏻 or 👎🏻. Cupcakes by @jaschreiber, photo by @gretchephoto, cupcakes stands made with spools and wood circles by me!

It’s a #craftchallenge!
Label the sides of 3 blocks—one block with traditional craft supplies, one block with household materials, and one with recycled materials. Roll the dice and whatever supplies land face up, you have to make something with these materials!

Our first roll was YARN 🧶 STRAWS 🥤AND NEWSPAPER 📰

Show us what you make with your #projectkidrollthedicecraft !

It’s birthday time! We have a #familytradition where we make a paper chain that counts down to the kids’ birthdays. The last ring attaches to a #birthdaycrown, so on the big day, they rip the last loop to “reveal” the crown.
🎈
We were a little late in making Sommer’s this year, but this morning we decided to craft it together. Sommer decorated hers with @lovepipsticks stickers and dressed up her #cerealbox crown like a pro!

Here’s a great #quarantinecraft...Learn how to make a DIY cape for your child’s favorite lovey! They are the real heroes, after all!

I found this deep in the archives of my phone and I thought it was a quickie craft that you can do with kids in a 10 min sitting...and then go have your own pinewood derby!
🚘
Use a twist-tie to connect the button when’s through the straw. And the only other thing to keep in mind is that you’ll have to glue the straw into the non-clip end of the clothespin. (full disclosure—my fave part of this photo might be those green doily trees! All materials linked in my @amazoninfluencerprogram page in bio!)

Right now it’s all about using what you have—which requires great imagination. Our kids are so skilled at this, but it’s so normal that adults have lost access to that whimsical side of their brain. But it’s time to get it back and this #diy rocket control panel is the perfect project because anything goes!
🚀
Switches, buttons, knobs, dials... bottle caps, plastic spoons, hardware bits...explore your inner rocket scientist and get crafty! 🚀 (From my book Project Kid: Crafts that Go!, photo by @alexandragrablewski)
