Good Books for the Young and Old(er): Best of 2009 @ ohdeedoh

I haven’t read any of these yet, but am really hoping the base library has just maybe picked some of them up.

Hilarious yet delicious-looking science cookies @ Jannypie Crafts

I love science. I love cookies. There is even more great science cookie goodness at Not So Humble Pie.

Photographer Nick Brandt @ the Young Gallery

All his photos leave me breathless. I need one of his books for our coffee table so I can look at them every day!

Grocery Ad Playtime Menu @ Money Saving Mom

Such a fun idea! I’m all ready saving grocery ads for when the boys master scissors.

Let’s be friends

I always love a cute animal picture, but this site is just beyond sweet.

Making giant bubbles @ Monkey Lobster

I remember making giant bubbles with coat hangers as well as standing inside cylindrical bubbles made with hula hoops. I love this yarn idea, though!

5 Good Things Booklet – Printable Download @ whisker graphics

I look forward to “how was your day” conversations with the kids over dinner. This is a great exercise to help look at the good things in life.

One Boy’s Forest @ checkout girl

Beautiful work. I’m so envious inspired!

Finger Knittin’ Good @ Craft

I remember playing with a Nifty Knitter when I was little, which is a spool that makes an I-cord. It didn’t occur to me to make one with your fingers! In a couple years, I hope this will be a fun activity for the boys!

Avant Yard: 75 tricks to get your kids outdoors @ DiY Life

Now I’m tired of the winter and ready to take the boys outside for some sunny fun!
