Recycling ideas-A popsicle stick pen stand

On a different note, my son made this popsicle(ice cream) stick pen stand for a school project of his.This is a great recycling project or a wet rainy day project for kids.We utilized around 60 ice cream sticks for the project.
We started with a Square made of 4 sticks and kept on adding more in a spiral fashion by placing the next stick at a slight angle and gluing them with fevicol.After attaining the desired height we turned it upside down and gave it a base.We embellished it with stick-on rhinestones and thus the project was complete.

Christmas advent calendar for kids

I made this fun Xmas advent calendar loaded with a lot of activities for kids this Xmas.We started a bit late this year as I was busy with a wedding in the family.So we started it from the 12th and will continue till Xmas.

Pin It


Each day has a new and perhaps interesting activity for the li'l ones.I used my white board and wrote down all the dates and then simply wrote some random "Post it" notes and pasted them one for each date.Then to make it look interesting and a bit appealing I decorated it with some magnets.........:).........Simple isn't it.

I'll show you a close up of some of the notes......

The one on the left says-Game night(not stretching beyond 9 P.M.),while the right one reads-Colouring/Painting Day.

Left one-Make and decorate picture frames.Right one-Donate to the less privileged.

The note for day 18 says-Have lunch in the LAWN.The note for day 19 says-Know about a different religion/culture and its festivals.

Some of the post it notes have been left blank.They are waiting for your suggestions.......:)
So please oblige......Waiting for some really funny/really kiddy suggestions.

Planning it was fun.Now let's see how do the kids react to this.
Merry Xmas to all of you too...........:)
Until next time,
Keep smiling.
