I love tracking down the best blogs that I can find.
Not only because I love to read them as a fellow blogger, but because I’ve realized that there is a large pool of creative, supportive people to learn from in the blogging community. And, since I’m connected with so many of them through Happily Ever Mom, I want to bring the best blogs right to you! These are the people who inspire me daily and I know they’ll inspire you, too.
Today, I’m thrilled to share with you Where Imagination Grows!
Where Imagination Grows is a one-stop shop for finding quick and fun activities to do for kids when you are at home or run an in-home childcare. Lisette has great resources for how to start an in-home childcare as well as amazing activities to do with the kids each day. She always has real activities that you can do with kids to keep them engaged and learning, without it taking a ton of time to set up. We love that!
Here’s Our Favorite Hands-On Activities
Baby’s and toddlers will have their hands all over this cave for baby. The lights are irresistible for any age!
Tis the season to be jolly and you won’t want to miss out on making this adorable christmas sun catcher …who knew glue could be this gorgeous? She’s also got the heart version, too.
Yo-ho, yo-ho, a pirate’s life for me – or pirate’s slime for me. Kids are going to love you for this one.
I can’t wait to try making these adorable face story stones for my kids. It’s such a brilliant way to talk about emotions with toddlers and preschoolers – perfect for the classroom!
If you have a baby going on toddler in the house, they’ll love this simple pom pom game made from an up-cycled bottle.
