~craft~ advent calendar

This year i made an advent calendar for my kids. Lower picture is a picture where i got my idea from.

I don't remember what web site i got this picture from, but it gave me good ideas.

Here are some examples of cards that i had in my boxes:

• Read a Christmas story.
• Light up a candle and sing Sighlent Night
• Make a gingerbread house
• Make a Christmas card for grandparents
• Make a Christmas craft

and much more,

and best of all Candy!

I also lead a group of girls on tuesday afternoons, and they all did one for their families. Here are pictures of some of the girls with their advent calendars.

~kids craft~ toilet paper roll bird feeders

We made these really awesome bird feeders with my kids. They were fun to make for kids.

So what we did was we put peanut butter on toile paper rolls.

And we licked some peanut butter :)

Then covered peanut butter with bird seeds.

Then we hung them up in our backyard. And watch how the visitors ate the seeds.

Viola's Birthday Party Preview

Viola's Birthday Party was great!!!

I made my own pinata, and i will post a tutorial in my next posts.

The main game was kids popping balloons and there was a note with what we are going to do next, a game, a song, or something else. I tryed to make a "V" in Russian, kinda looks like it.

I also made the birthday banner using DYE Cuts.

Also i made a wreath for the door...

And here's my little princess, she is 3!!! I made her boa skirt. 

We rented lights for the night. It was so much fun for the kids.... Viola's grandma made a Barbie cake for her.

One of the games that we played was finding the treasure, and the treasure was handmade crowns with everyone names on them that me and Viola made.
