After the success of our gorgeous little paper roll elves we wanted to follow up with another paper roll craft and who better than the big guy himself! Today marks the first day of opening the advent calendars and for my kids the countdown to Christmas has now...
With my children being 4 and 1 the difference in their crafting abilities is pretty wide. For example my eldest has mastered using scissors now but the idea of my little girl anywhere near a pair of scissors makes me very, very nervous! Though as they have got older...
When it comes to Christmas movies the fist one we usually watch as a family is home alone, the kids think it's hilarious and we think it's hilarious listening to them laughing at it! For me though I think the most cosy and nostalgic film to cuddle up with at Christmas...
After making our polymer clay lollipops I thought that I would upload these simple pipe cleaner lollipop ornaments too. Clay is fab and great for crafting but it's something that until recently we never really kept in the house, plus it can be quite expensive if you...
Don't you just love this little toilet roll Christmas elf craft? I know that we certainly love these little guys and so did our family when we sent them some pictures! Infact, they've even asked my little one if he'll make some more to send to them. My son and i had...
I absolutely love these little photo frame ornaments! We've ordered some prints to go in them but they haven't arrived yet, Still they're all ready to go and we just couldn't wait to share them with you. My favorite part about these is how each one is so unique, my...
These festive little fingerprint Christmas trees are probably my favorite design for this little craft. They make such sweet little keepsakes and my little ones have each made one to sit either side of the TV in our front room. We love handmade Christmas decorations...
I originally posted these cute button Christmas trees a couple of years ago as one of my first ever crafts but I decided it was time to revisit them and give the post a little freshen up! My little guy has made several of these today in so many different styles and he...
With lockdown #2 well under way we've been busy trying to find plenty of activities to keep the little ones entertained and with the festive season right around the corner we've started to focus on some fun Christmas activities. Seeing as we have so much extra time on...
When is it considered acceptable to put up the Christmas decorations? With everything that's been going on this year with covid and for us personally with loved ones being unwell, it just feels as if it's about time the kids had something nice. Obviously we have no...
I really can't believe how fast Christmas is rolling around this year, it seems as if the last one has only just been and gone. I think we're all expecting this one to be a bit different from the normal with everything that's going on in the world right now. Our...
I know, a Christmas tree craft in may! What am I thinking?! Let's be honest though this little embellished Christmas tree craft is pretty adorable. I came up with the idea whilst we were making our fingerprint apple trees. I had to get them written down as by December...
I know, I know.. ANOTHER Christmas tree craft in may! Like I have said before though, if I don't get the ideas down whilst there fresh I'll have forgotten them by December! How adorable is this little fingerprint Christmas tree craft though? I came up with the idea...
Cute paper Penguin craft How adorable is this cute paper penguin craft?! My little guy and i loved them so much that we made ourselves a little penguin family! We've had so much fun making these little cone crafts and have came up with so many fun designs to share...
How adorable is this little easy paper owl craft? My son is really interested in owls right now, both because there are quite a few around where we live and because we recently started reading a bit of the first Harry Potter book. He thinks Hedwig is the best...
Aren't Robin's just the sweetest little birds? We get quite a lot of them in our garden, they're so confident too, often landing right next to us. We had so much fun making this paper plate Robin, my little guy loved the fact that he got to paint, cut out and use his...
Winter is right around the corner and it's getting cold outside. These wet and icy days are perfect for snuggly days inside with a fun winter craft. This paper plate penguin is adorable and simple - perfect for young children to make with their favourite grownups. My...
Today I'm sharing a craft a little outside of my usual. This Stuffed yarn wrapped Christmas tree is a bit too tricky for young children but is a craft I've always enjoyed making myself and wanted to share. This craft is perfect for making whilst snuggled up with a hot...
We've already began putting up our Christmas decorations and the house is starting to get that cosy Christmas feel with the lights and the tree. Although thanks to tiny hands the tree decorations are noticeably top heavy and a little sparse at the bottom! This year is...
All these festive crafts have put us in a very festive mood! If I could I would be putting my tree up tomorrow, though I don't think my other half would be on board quite yet! Christmas is getting closer and closer though and nativities are a big theme in our family...
