Get creative with your fruit and watch it fly off the table! We took a picnic to the Zoo and when I was grabbing some extra napkins from their snack counter, I saw some coffee stirrers. I grabbed them and skewered our fruit! These were gone in the blink of an eye!

Use empty spice containers as vials for a nature sample!

Masking Tape and a new car make the cutest most inexpensive gift for boys! Add larger car sets for even more fun. They use the tape to make roads. I usually start the first strip of tape with a plastic bread tab that they can re-use to find the end over and over again and I also add black dashes to the center of the tape on the first section so that they can see how easy it is to visualize tape as road!

Use a gumball machine capsule to house dice and keep them from flying across the room

Today's Thoughts!

Appreciation

This was Teacher Appreciation Week! What did you bring in for the special teachers in your life? We did these fantastic baskets with print outs found here!

This basket was made from the bottom of a strawberry container!

The bud vase? A syrup jar from a restaurant!

Enjoyment!

The weather got warm and we hit the park! I love how portable the bubble station is! I pulled it out and my son started playing and within minutes the entire park was hanging out with us!! I would have taken a photo, but as I didn't know any of the children, I didn't think it was right. Get out there and enjoy the day!!

What Just Happened?

Blogger is not letting me see my subscribed to blogs!!! What happened? Did this happen to anyone else? I'm in a mad panic, because I can't read some of my favorite blogs today!!!

Gnome Button Set by Manhandled 4.00

Just a quick post before I leave for the day! I saw these and fell in love! I'm actually going to buy them today and I just had to share how cute they all were! I plan on doing something totally awesome with all the pins I buy, I just have to decide how many I want on it and when it's truly ready to be started on! Do you have any great pins to share?

Tip of the day:
Are you getting yourself out there? Promoting on the fly? Chatting up your shop without even saying a word? I have decals on the windshield of both my vehicles, I have magnetic signs on either side of my car and I just take those and move them to whatever car I am driving that day!
Great for long roadtrips! I am also about to buy this awesome pieces I found last week on MonsterPromos! So get chatting without saying a word! Spread around that shop love!
