hello,小制作

eneva, sans-serif; line-height: 18px;">If you were stuck on a desert island with the kids, what crafting materials would you absolutely need to have?

Paper, scissors, and pens/e are the basics for good reason. With these tools we could write letters home, make toys to pass the time, engineer a boat off the island, and draw pictures of our experience on said island ;)


And because we love books and are always looking for good recommendations, what are some of your favorite children's books?

Iggy Peck Architect, The Big Orange Splot, The Giving Tree, and Don’t Move the Muffin Tins.


Last, who are some of your favorite bloggers that inspire you?

I have so so many bloggers I love but I'llmentiona few of my latest obsessions:Meri Cherry at MeriCherry Blog- She’s a friend of mine too, how cool is that?
A kindred spirit from across the globe is Kate from Picklebums. AlsoFreja from Pysselbolaget because Europeans do everything with style.
And all the Rockin Art Moms: here they are on Pinterest!

Thank you so much Ana, for sharing your tips and tricks to stay creative with kids. Those watercolor and oil paintings look like amazing fun and create such beautiful patterns of colors. I know my daughter would love making those clay houses and that Perlerbead maze is something I can see both my son and husband enjoying!
