Teddy Bear Cookie Pops.

Lily and Daisy love baking, but we were a little short on time with ballet and tap dances to go to, so we made these yummy, easy and quick teddy bear cookie pops instead, no baking required, and still a yummy treat that's loads of fun to make.

Fruit Fairy Wands!

 

We made some delicious fruit fairy wands today. Daisy was so funny, she kept eating the fruit she was supposed to be building the kebab with!!

Ingredients:

• Blueberries (or grapes)
• Cake pop sticks (or a skewer, I didn't trust Daisy not to stab herself with it!)
• Star cookie cutter (or heart or butterfly)

Directions:

• Take the slice of watermelon and use a cookie cutter to cut a shape for the top of the wand (we used a star).
• Get the cake pop stick and thread on the blueberries.
• Add the watermelon star.
• Cast a spell and enjoy!

Wicked Wednesday!!!!

Lily and Daisy have tired out Granny and Granddad after an amazing day spent visiting the park, and crafting with Granny's special stash!!!! Visit Granny's blog Mamas Mercantile, her blog is amazing, she is a fabulous crafter an my inspiration!!!

Tiny Babies.

I have recently crocheted some baby hats and mittens for a friend of mine who is expecting a baby boy next month.

Making these reminded me of how teeny tiny newborns are, especially as I watch my two year old dressed as buzz light-year, and four year old dressed as a pirate, charge around the living room creating stories and adventures...


These are very simple to create, I made the hats in about fifteen minutes each.  I love the little ribbons threaded through the wool, it makes them look so special.

Chalk Picture.

A lovely picture that Lily made for Granny. We experimented with some chalks on black card. Lily loves using chalks and rubbing them onto her hands.

Some other brilliant chalk activities we are going to try are:

Painting with chalk and water
Pavement chalk skip counting games
Chalk alphabet garden
Crushed chalk art

Does anyone else have any ideas using chalk??? It really is Lily's favourite art material...
