Have You Noticed A Difference Here Yet?!?


If not~I want to draw your attention to my new Blog Banner and Button! As I was recently given a little gift from a very talented lady~Mariah. She is the owner and writer over at Gingersnap Alley. If you get a chance go check her blog out~not only is she talented but she also is has some great advice on how to do things with your children or grandchildren.
 What is Gingersnap Alley?
The world is filling up with do-dads and gadgets. And that wouldn't be a bad thing if it weren't for the fact that it's slowly getting the drop on good old-fashioned imaginative play. I can fondly remember getting up at the crack of dawn, throwing on an old pair of tennis shoes, and just letting loose outside all day. I wouldn't go back indoors until very close to sunset. There was no worrying about batteries or figuring out what to play. I had everything I needed right there in my own head and I must say my childhood was a blast. This site is my dedication to those days and my chance to do it all over again.
The mission of Gingersnap Alley is to provide a safe, everyday ideas for activities that encourage healthier more meaningful choices for children ages 0-10 while giving parents the opportunity to bond with them if they so choose. I'm a very firm believer in the power of imagination.

Isn't that cool?!? She also has a giveaway going on right now so be sure to enter that~You can win a free toy from Etsy worth up to $20{She is even paying shipping} Enter here


And~you will want to come back here tomorrow as Mariah and I have a great surprise to announce that you won't want to miss!

PAAS Easter Egg Dye and Heinz Vinegar Review

Easter is early this year,so we decided to dye eggs last night. You know that the Easter Bunny has got to get the baskets ready so we need to help with the coloring.{So~I am told by my grandson} We were super excited as this year we were sent some new PAAS Easter egg dyes to try.       This year, PAAS has seven new egg decorating kits, including Volcano Eggsplosion, a kit that uses melted crayon shavings to provide instant color and Touch of Velvet, a kit that uses double stick adhesives and flocking powder to create fun, fuzzy shapes on your Easter creations!
