My Kyra girl celebrated her 5th birthday in class this past Friday. Instead of the usual cupcakes, I wanted to do something healthy...so the pressure was on for it to be extra special so the cupcakes wouldn't be missed. Her teacher gave me the idea for a fruit salad, so I decided to go with a Noah's Ark watermelon! I looked up a few pics on the internet of what the ark should look like & went to work. I marked my major cut lines & cut away the top parts of the watermelon very carefully. I cut out a big square in the middle for the entrance to the ark and smaller squares in pairs for windows around the whole thing. Kyra had the idea to use the animal crackers...that was a great idea! We glued seven popsicle sticks on top of another one that was cut in half to make the bridge which the animals used to board the ark. I drained out as much of the excess watermelon juice as possible...didn't want it flooded inside the ark, ya know! Then I used some "scrap" watermelon rind to construct a mini rooftop, secured with toothpicks. We put the cut up fruit around the watermelon...just love how this looks all put together! I carefully placed the animals in the windows, 2 of each kind next to each other & filled another plate with more animal crackers...all set! Here it is in the classroom before the kiddos had at it...and there is a model Noah's Ark behind it! =) My Kyra girl was very happy & had a super special day celebrating her birthday at school. She gave me the biggest thank you hug for making the special Noah's Ark watermelon & took this picture for me. =) Happy Birthday Kyra, you are such a blessing to my life & so many others. You are bright, thoughtful & very affectionate...I love you my Kyra girl!

Haven’t we all been to the same over-the-top, Pinterest-inspired and game-heavy baby shower a dozen times? It’s the model for bébé-welcoming that’s seemingly become the norm, but what if the mama-to-be doesn’t quite fit this mold—not to mention you, the host (although catering to the personality of the mother-in-question is obviously most important)? We’ve got some sweet ideas for updating the age-old baby shower formula, and, honestly, leaving some traditions by the wayside without throwing the whole baby out with the bath water. Reporter: Julie Pointer Adams
Having attended A LOT of baby showers myself, I can say that I have enjoyed my fair share of games. However, having a little variation in the traditional way of throwing a shower (ie. skipping

This week at Just Add Ink we have a challenge to Just Add Chevrons. I decided to try them on a baby card. I used the new chevron embossing folder on pink pirouette card and used white craft ink on top of the embossing to highlight it a little more. I originally thought to use it because of its wave-like pattern but it also has a baby blanket look to it too I think. I used my copics on the image and it was lots of fun to colour. This is such a fantastic stamp. I love it! I can see every baby card in the future being made with Two By Two. It is perfect and so cute! Ingredients : Stamps : Two by two Card : grey, pink pirouette, pip, white, saffron, x-press it Ink : memento black, white Other : copics, big shot, square scallop, chevron ef, square punch, buttons, bakers twine The design team have come up with lots of great ways to use chevrons on their cards this week. Please take a look and join in with our challenge. Kathy
Our baby shower word scramble includes a secret message about the wee one in the diaper. Cute graphics make this a great party game.

The main centerpiece of our party. A significant element in the story, it represented Max's travels into and out of his imaginative world....
This week was Letter R in preschool, and because of this I decided to do a Rainbow Theme. I found lots of fun ideas to try, and we were pleased with most all of them. One activity we especially enjoyed was our Rainbow Streamers. I got the idea from a combination of two different places. This pin from Pinterest: Source: pre-schoolplay.blogspot.com via Julie on Pinterest and this post at Sense of Wonder talking about using streamers to learn about the wind. The Sense of Wonder person used crepe paper as streamers, and the Pre-School Play person used plastic the she got from a "recycling bank". (I've heard about these recycling centers from different bloggers in England and in Australia, and they really sound like wonderful places). But alas, I have no such recycling bank, so I went to my new favorite and cheap material: plastic tablecloths from the dollar store. I got one tablecloth of each of the rainbow colors (and yes, I know this picture is sideways. I keep rotating in my photo editing software, but then when I copy it here it goes sideways on me again. I just don't know - my iPhone pictures seem to have trouble turning the right way sometimes.): Then I used my handy paper cutter to cut the tablecloth into 1"strips. At first I made streamers that were the full length of the longest side of the tablecloth (108"), and while these were wonderful streamers, I deemed that they would be too long for the Little People. So instead I made 54" streamers. Since the tablecloths are 54" x 108", you can make 54 streamers if you cut them as long as the long side of the cloth, or 108 if you cut them short. The only warning I have is to watch out if you have tablecloths coming from different stores/manufacturers. Not all tablecloths are folded the same, and if not careful to check how each kind of folded you can end up with lots of short pieces. Once I got my steamers cut, I folded them in half lengthwise and attached them with this simple knot to the curtain ring in rainbow-order. (I just learned from the Internet that this is called a lark's head knot - learn something new every day.) You will want to keep the knots loose, because you need them loose to be able to add the glue easily. If you do as I did and tighten them at first, you will just need to loosen them later: Once you have them on there and nice and loose, scoot them away from the bottom center of the ring: Then place a dab of glue on the outside and inside of the ring and slide the streamers back over the glue. I used Alene's craft glue. Well, at first I used hot glue, but not surprisingly, it melted right through the plastic. Once the streamer is over the glue, you can tighten up the knots, which will get the glue worked into the knot a little bit and secure it. Here are the knots all tightened up: And here are all the streamers ready for their car ride to school: As you might imagine, the Little People have just loved the Rainbow Streamers. They ran with them, let the wind blow them around, and threw them in the air to watch the streamers fly to the ground. We still used the long set of streamers, but only as a wind-catcher on one of the playground trees. Of course, it was only a few minutes after I put it up there that I noticed a small cluster of the Little People standing solemnly around it with their hands on their heart saying the pledge of allegiance... and while I could talk about how improper it might be or not be to say the pledge allegiance to something other than a real flag, I have to say first that I thought the association was clever of them. To the best of my calculations, each streamer only cost $.14 each, which I think is pretty good, especially considering that $.08 of that is for the shower curtain ring. That's not very much money for a lot of rainbow fun for the Little People.
