Search and Find Clip Boards


I have been on the hunt for summer activities for my kids this year. I have a feeling I am going to need all the help that I can get to keep them busy. I decided to design some Search & Find games. My kids are not old enough to read yet so I decided to do Search & Find picture games of things around the house and outside that they could find. If you would like to print some off for your kids just right click and save image and then you will be able to print them from your computer. I printed 2 per page so that they would fit on the cute little clip boards that I made to go along with them.
                                                  


                                                           

I had 2 small clip boards laying around so I decided to decorate them and then my girls could use them with the look and find game. I used adhesive spray and paper on the boards. Then I used hot glue to embellished with flowers, ribbon, gems and buttons. I also tied a pen to the board so they would not lose them. They turned out so cute that I am almost afraid to let my kids use them.







I used a fabric flower from my fabric flower tutorial to top off the layered daisy flowers.

Hopefully these will keep my kids busy for a little while.

Summer, where are you????


Anyone else dying for summer? I am. I just need to hang 
on a few more months. Here are a few cute summer idea's 
I came across while visiting my fellow bloggers.

                                         
        Isn't this lemonade stand stinkin cute? I want one for my kids. The only problem is that I don't really want them selling lemonade in our neighborhood, we don't live in one of the best neighborhood's around. Is it even safe for my kids anywhere out side our house anymore? The times have defiantly changed from when I grew up.

I thought this was a cute summer gift idea from eighteen25



I love this summer wreath, very clever and time consuming. I think I might just make one for my front porch this summer. Visit ourbestbites to see how they made it.



                Dear summer, hurry up and get here my kids are going stir crazy which means I am going crazy. 
I really need you. XOXO
