Magnetic Wall Art And Interactive Princess Toy

Turn an inexpensive oil drip pan from a automotive store into a magnetic princess land that your own little princess can play with for hours on end.  It allows for hours of interactive princess.  Encouraging imaginative play, storytelling, and lettwe recognition make this toy not only super fun, but educational too.

Stop And Go Light Magnetic Toy And Wall Art

Turn three pizza pans into an adorable  piece of wall art for any little boy’s room or playroom.  It is as fun and educational as it is cute.  With a few inexpensive things you can create a totally unique toy that doubles as wall art! I have been making magnet boards similar to this for my kids and friend’s kids for about a year.  They are fun and educational.  I was using just a rectangular pan and adding magnetic letters, numbers, and objects.  They spent a lot of time learning to spell words and recognize letters using them. When I spotted these pizza pans at Walmart...

Outdoor Kid Pool To Indoor Ball Pit Play Tent

Before you put your kiddie pool away in the garage for the fall consider this!  Why not bring that pool in and make it into an amazingly fun ball pit and tent for your child to play with all winter long.  I am so excited to share this project with you!  My kids absolutely love it!

Repurpose Old Shutters – A Charming Kids Height Chart

Height charts for children are not always an easy thing to incorporate into home decor.  I used these old, charming, rustic shutters paired with some canvas baby photos of my little ones to create a perfect area to display how much they have grown. When at my in-laws one day, I noticed a thin piece of Sheetrock laying up against their wall.  As I investigated further my heart fluttered as I realized what it was.  It was a height chart for their three children (one of which I am lucky enough to call my husband).  Their children are all grown up and moved out of the house.  All I could...

Creative Storage In Your Kids Room – Turn Large Rubber Hose Into Cute Stuffed Animal Shelves

It’s no doubt that if you have toddlers in your home, then you have a plethora of cute fuzzy stuffed friends too. Stuffed animals are often some of a child’s  favorite toys, but I feel like they are taking over our house. I raided my husbands shop and found some rubber hose that was the perfect solution.  These  adorable cubbies make a great little display for my son’s favorite stuffed friends and was totally free to create. My husband had been using this 10 and 8 inch rubber hose for work.    When he was done he left a few scrap pieces in the house because the kids...
